Buchanan's Chop House & Whiskey Bar

If I could give Buchanan's 7 Stars I would. This is the best chophouse experience you will have in Calgary. Incredible people, incredible quality and and

To be honest, if not for the big taste I wouldn't have ever thought of coming here.

Are you looking for a great, downtown, dining experience without it a big-ticket price or a pretentious environment? Buchanan's Chop House and Whisky Bar

We were visiting Calgary from Nova Scotia. We were staying nearby and noticed the restaurant, Buchanan's. We decided to give it a try. We happened to stop by during Happy Hour Food which is between 3-6PM, you can get one of their 8 oz ground sirloin burgers for $12 (which is half price). We all ordered burger and fries. AMAZING, HUGE, TOP QUALITY!!! Top notch food, top notch service!! Better than anything we have had in Nova Scotia. The waiters were friendly, courteous and amazing! They cook the burgers just as you ask... perfectly!!!!!! YOU MUST VISIT DURING Happy food hour!!!! You will not be disappointed!!!!! The rest of their menu looks fantastic, we will be back again to try other items. We ate in the bare during Happy Food hour, they also have a fine dining section. We were too full for desert, but will be back to try their wonderful desert menu.

This looks like a neighborhood pub and whiskey bar, but it is so much more. The whiskey choices are immense and the menu leaves you wanting more than one.I had the Hong Kong wings with the lobster scallops. I recommend both. Just outside the downtown core, this place is worth the walk.
