If you're considerate enough to make a reservation and provide 8 customers they will penalize you by adding an 18% tip to your bill even if service is sub par. And when they bring individual bills, our server didn't allow us to see them before entering charge in machine so you were asked for another tip. read more

We stopped in here for lunch because we were in the area. The place is large, with many televisions all over the place - some side by side - showing different sporting events. Yes, it is a sports bar, and likely a great place to chill and enjoy the game. I was impressed by how huge the menu is, especially by the build-your-own burger selection on the back page. I'm someone who is very fussy and hates having to pay for toppings that I have to hold, so just being able to order what I want in the first place is wonderful. However, that is not what I had - although my dining companion did, and enjoyed it immensely. I had the chicken fingers and fries, which is my go-to bar comfort food, and was impressed by the size and crunch of the fingers. The fries were hot and fresh and crispy. They are the coated variety. Prices were in line with other establishments - you'd be looking at about $20 per person on average - and, of course, there is an ample drink menu. I would definitely come here again, perhaps to watch some hockey while munching on something tasty. read more

This isn't a current review, but since I stumbled upon it this site, I thought I'd post so that the same thing hopefully won't happen again. We went here to grab something to eat before the Kiss concert on Nov 10th, 2023, to take advantage of it's location to Rogers Place. My burger was okay (claimed to be spicy but it really wasn't) , but my wife's Pickle Spears were dripping with grease and were unedible. We sent them back after one bite. We told the waitress, she shrugged her shoulders. Did they take them off the bill or at least discount them? Bother to ask my wife if she wanted anything else? No. We were in a hurry to get the concert, so we didn't argue and after the show we were still so mad we thought it best to deal with the situation after a cooling off period. I reached out to their management the next day via direct messenger on Twitter about what happened. CRICKETS. They have yet to respond years later. Their silence spoke volumes. Haven't been back since. read more

Curly fries here are great! But the burger itself was a little bit of a letdown. Though the service was pretty solid! read more

Open indoors and out, no masks. Good burgers and local beer options. Good service. Loud pop music and several sports games on giant screens. Good for watching a game with friends, but not for having a conversation. Food appetizers and sides are mediocre. The website falsely boasts milkshake specials. When asked, the server said they do not serve milkshakes. Not sure why they advertise a special milkshake menu online, if they don't serve them. read more

I was at Edmonton Mall and I saw that they had the 1st Rnd but the mall closes at 6pm on Sunday. So I know I am not hungry enough to eat there before 6pm. So I am so glad they have a restaurant near downtown. This was perfect. Best part is there are lots of parking because its in a mall. I tried the Milan Lucic Burger and Perogy Burger. Their burger were very tasty. Lots of flavor. the perogy burger is a bit messy. But It was definitely very interesting. The Milan Lucic Burger was delicious as well. Lots of cheese and mushrooms. Be prepare to be messy. The burger came with side fries, curly fries, salad or soup of the day. I got the soup of the day which was tomatoe basil. The soup was a bit salty but it was delicious. The décor was nice. Lots of sport jersey. Its pretty interesting. Also lots of TV around the restaurant/ sports bars. read more

Another overly loud, average sports pub. Meh, definitely had better, and here's why: - ordered the beer cheese soup, it came out lukewarm, was replaced but already had skin on it again from sitting - beer cheese soup unbelievably salty. Yes beer cheese is already salty, but add bacon and and what seemed to be pickled jalapeños to it and it was intolerable. Really bad, not recommended. - fish tacos: way past messy. Nice that it's a generous serving but you can't pick them up much less take a bite without dropping stuff everywhere. I hate that; needs to come with a spoon. Also too many toppings means you can't appreciate the ingredients, like the coleslaw which was good. I was also unimpressed that the lime wedges which came with the tacos were old and dried out, gross. Who wants bar fruit served with their food? - beer menu: hard to read. My older friend asked for a Kronenberg, not realizing it would be Kronenberg Blanc (a wheat beer) or that it was draft, not bottle. The waitress was kind and took it back, even comped it. - server knowledge/experience level: part of the beer confusion was that our server didn't know the beer menu well, and didn't know that Weißbier (Witbier) means it's a White (Wheat) Beer. We also asked her about the gravy, to which she replied she had never tried it, but then proceeded to tell us about how she loves gravy and tries it everywhere she goes. Say what? - floor manager: after my friend sent his beer back, the manager, who is probably 1/3 his age, came out and straight up lectured him in a super-condescending tone. She literally dive-bombed us with pseudo-service, spoke quickly to my friend about his beer, and with a snotty "mm-kay now?" was on her way. Uh, thanks? Guess we got told! - seriously WTF is it with the loud music? Honestly if I worked here I'd be calling WCB to investigate. It's not the loudest in Edmonton, Beer Revolution is way worse, but why do I have to shout across a three-top table at my mates just because it's a sports pub? It was a Tuesday evening, not even a games night. Our server also spoke in a small voice so we were constantly having to ask her to repeat herself. Sure years of heavy metal have probably caused me some hearing loss, but seriously now, turn it down! We liked the jalapeño shrimp, bigger than your average "popcorn shrimp" and had a tasty spicy kick to it. The beer menu is pretty good, better than average, and our server was very nice to us in a shy, quiet way, and was very accommodating. But other than that I don't have much good to say about 1st Rnd. Just another loud sports pub with average food, and there's an abundance of those in Edmonton. And after our experience with the manager, we will not be back. read more

Short review, it's been a long night. But this was about my fourth time at this restaurant. It's always good food and service. But it is your typical bar food and sports bar. If you're looking for a quiet restaurant, this is not the place for you. If you're looking for a juicy burger or wings, and a place to watch the game - whatever game it might be, and hang with your friends - then this is the spot for you. I suggested this restaurant to my coworkers and they're hooked -- but it isn't for everyone. Pros: Good food, fast service Cons: Music is way too loud for day time lunches. We could barely hear each other over the table. Heavy metal at noon? Okay then. As bad as brewsters playing metal at 11 on a Sunday morning. Give yourself lots of time. We were told our food would be ready in 30 minutes but it was more like 40. read more

1st RND is my first choice whenever I'm going to watch the NFL playoffs. They are the perfect place to watch a game, there are more TVs that can be counted and they have perfect sight-lines anywhere you sit. They have good drink and food deals on game day. Like $4 Bud Lights and good boneless wings. The food is overall bar food, nothing particularly fantastic, but it is well-made and satisfies. The portions are good. Service is good and they're usually attentive. No mistakes or anything. I would go back. read more

Came here with friends on a Wednesday night. It was Wing Wednesday (half price wings) and that's what we ordered. There is a big variety of flavors to choose from plus they are listed in terms of how hot they are, and some can be super HOT! I ordered the Whisky BBQ and they were delicious! I almost ordered another round but had to resist the temptation. There are plenty of other eats to choose from and the beer selection is also big. The service is friendly and welcoming. I had a very good time here and will be coming back for sure :-) read more

The signs outside advertise BURGERS and that's what you'll get at 1st Rnd, along with lots of appetizer options, wings, salads and more. When I see the word burger, the switch in my mind immediately flips to burger mode and now I'm a burger-craving machine! I came here with a friend for lunch over the weekend and we were quickly greeted by the hostess. Mid-day 1st Rnd is nice and bright and there were lots of options of where to sit. We were helped right away by our waitress, who was really helpful and pleasant. We had a little trouble flagging her down at the end to bring us our bills but other than that, she was always at our table with drink refills, food and friendly conversation when we needed her. The menu took us a while to digest as we kept flipping between building our own burger options and choosing a burger off the list. We finally settled on the mac and cheese burger for my friend and I had the buffalo chicken. There are so many options and I was torn between the buffalo chicken, The Heat and the PBJ. So obviously I need to go back to try them all out. Everything came out really fast and just the way we ordered it. My buffalo chicken burger was good, although I was expecting spicier. The onion rings were the best onion rings ever. They were served with a great dip and a whole lot of rings... the serving size is super generous, as is the delicious batter on each ring. I will always order the onion rings when I return to 1st Rnd! I love the brand and how they carry it through the restaurant. The "language" that is used throughout is fun and cheeky and reminds you that you're in a fun place. Yeah it's a sports bar but it is a super approachable place that I found to be clean, friendly, tasty and fun. I think it would be a great atmosphere to catch the game and it was definitely a great place to catch up with a friend! read more

My first visit to 1st RND was nothing short of great! The atmosphere, food, and quality service left me feeling like I had an excellent experience here. Upon entering, you know you have stepped into a sports bar, but it's more of an upscale sports bar (not like some I have been to!). The hostess was courteous and pleasant and had no issues with my party being super picky about where we sat. We went around dinner time and surprisingly, it wasn't too loud or boisterous inside (although the hockey game was between Toronto and Chicago so that probably helped - lol!). Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable. She let us know what made 1st RND so different from other bars and was quick to fill us in on the daily specials. She was prompt with bringing drinks and food. One of my pet peeves is having waitresses come over at less-than-opportune moments to ask how everything was, but this wasn't the case here, which was a nice break. I opted to try something of the drink menu and of course my choice was the Bellini (definitely a weakness of mine). This thing was massive! It was also extremely delicious, which makes it even better, because I have had some bad Bellini's in my days. I ordered the deep fried pickles for an appy, and they were probably some of the best I have ever had. Dinner for me consisted of a Build Your Own Burger - I wasn't disappointed here, either! All around, my experience at 1st RND was a good one, and I will definitely return. Hopefully I will save room for dessert next time because a brownie with caramel and potato chips sounds pretty appealing! read more

1st Round is a great new sports bar in downtown Edmonton (well technically Oliver - it is in the old Hudson's). The renovated room is amazing and looks nothing like the old Hudson's. It is bright and filled with several TV's (including a couple jumbo ones - great for watching hockey or football). The service is amazing and maybe sets it apart from other sports bars I've been in. The servers regularly check up on you to see if you need anything else or another drink - no need to try and find and flag them down. Each time we have also had the manager come up to us to make sure things were going well - great idea for a new location to make sure customers will return. Food is good. I've really just done the "build a burger" menu. You pick your bun, meat, toppings, etc. It's been well done each time. Highly recommend going to watch a game or grab a bite to eat! read more

Wow. Had been to this place 5 times before and largely had a great time, ordering food and a few rounds of drinks each time. However, ordered from Uber and got the chicken fingers and wings. Wings were ordered plain with sauce on the side, and got them wrapped tightly in foil with sauce, so they were soggy and fatty and went in the garbage. Chicken fingers were a whopping 140g of chicken for $15.25, or just for fun, if you were buying that chicken in a store, it would be $49 a pound. And so. go pound it, 1st Rnd. I've had your chicken fingers before and I actually felt embarrassed for you that you felt good about sending this out. I know restaurants try to hold about a 27% food cost, but even then, this is a disgusting overcharge. You should be ashamed of yourselves. That's the last time I go there or order from there. There's better value ordering in a theatre or on a plane. You guys suck. Stay away. read more

This is a perfect example of a sports bar. Great food, great attitude by all staff, a willingness to ensure you have a great time and good selection of beer and other libations. There is a TV in view from every angle, seating is comfortable and a great place to watch the game or hang with friends. Burgers and wings are the highlights here. The Milan Lucic burger is a favorite and has a great social benefit! Tried the new creamy dill wings from the St. Patrick's Day special menu, and they are awesome! I hope they are added to the full time menu. read more

I am having to change my review from the previous time that I ate here. Not sure what happened, but the Service literally fell off the map!! Sitting at a wobbly table, waited for service, finally she sees us, takes our drink order and disappears. When she returned, she gave us our drinks and disappeared. Then she comes back, takes our order and she is gone again!! No drink refills, nothing. We get served by someone else, and the my meal was dismal. I brought it to the Manager's attention....her reply? "No one else has ever complained". Their solution was to take it off the bill. It was never about a "free bee", it was about letting them know that if they are charging a high price for something, it should be worth it! Ended up having to find someone to give me my cheque. Another Thing? You are supposed to welcome children....maybe low cut, revealing clothing is not appropriate....just a thought. Won't be back. read more

Ordered take out and the food was amazing. I ordered the peanut butter and jam burger. It was fresh and pick up was easy.

For a sports bar, this location gets full marks. It's our favourite location for watching sports as there are so many large and sharp tv's that there really isn't a bad seat in the house. The sound is also just right so that the commentators are clear and you can still have a normal volume conversation at your table. We love the wing deal on Monday and most everything else on the menu is done very well. The fish tacos are a bit ridiculously messy but everything else is so spot on I always order too much and have happy meat regrets. If you live in the west end, drive past the WEM location and make the trip to this one. It's very worth it! read more

A sports bar with multiple huge TV screens, great for watching games. I was there on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. Service was great, food came out pretty quickly. One thing I quickly noticed was that all the glasses had cloudy stains around the rim. Yikes. I ordered the burger with tater tots. The burger was alright but the dipping sauce that came with the tots was really tasty. The server told me that it's their house special sauce with a bunch of spices in it. I couldn't help but finish that sauce. Soon after, I started feeling a tingling sensation on my lips and they were chapped for two days. Not sure if it's from too much of that delicious sauce or if it was something else. read more

I was here for Monday night football after being at the WEM location a couple weeks ago to have snacks & bevies & to try & win a chance to the Superbowl! Your name goes into the draw just for showing up on any Sunday , Monday or Thursday & with each Bud or Bud Light you drink you receive additional ballets (plan your way home ahead of time ). The way they transformed the old Hudson's was kinda brilliant in my opinion.. But they left the washrooms in the same location which with me doing my best to get extra ballots during the game was good I didn't have to go on a search for them! As for food I had ate so I only nibbled at my table partners choices.. I tried a Mac & cheese ball, really good.. Not too greasy or heavy like I was expecting.. Super hot though when 1st served though so be careful. Then I tried the deep fried pickles, they sliced theirs lengthwise as opposed to doing them in spears like I'm used to, they were a pleasant surprise! It was also 1/2 price wing day so I tried boneless terihot, or hotyaki, a little salty but still great flavour & crispy/sauce ratio. The servers took our orders promptly & they came out quickly. They were super friendly & attentive. Now back to why I was there.. A chance to goto the Superbowl! I now had secured myself 5 entries total.. The 1 st name is drawn & it's my friend & she goes up & chooses the Cowboys jersey.. My team that night ( Pats fan here) & gives it to me as a belated birthday present & I think well that's cool that one of us won... THEN THEY CALLED MY NAME!!! Can't wait for the watching party so they can call my name for Superbowl. Hands down best place to watch football in the city.. Did I mention all the TV's & big screens & that I won a chance to goto the Superbowl?! Maybe see you tomorrow when they give away a helmet read more

I went for wing Wednesday last week. I am not a big sports fan but if I was I would definitely spend more time here! The decor is really fun and sports-like. There are tons of tvs so you can watch whatever game is on. What I liked most was the excellent service we received. From the hostess letting us know where the washrooms were to the server having great customer service skills to the manager coming for a quality check- it was a great experience. We ordered some wings from the massive 20+ list of flavors! They were really tasty. They have some unique flavors like peanut butter and jam and the dill honey mustard, which we enjoyed. The food came fast and on Wednesdays wings are half off. Seems like a great place for groups as well! read more

So some background info before my review. This establishment advertises happy hour between 3 PM and 5 PM. Myself and a potential business client arrived at the restaurant at, and I quote because I looked at my GPS watch, 1637 hours (4:37 PM), we ordered drinks, 2 beers, and were given menu's. Life is good. Our wonderful server Jordyn, (Amazing server. I hold nothing against her.), comes to the table and takes our drink orders. Time is approx. 1647 hours. Jordyn delivers the drink at approx. 1653 hours. That's awesome service in my opinion. We place our order for chicken wings at about 1655 hours and off goes this wonderful server. I specify that I would like to have only "Flats" (Chicken winglettes, as opposed to the chicken drumlettes.) Jordyn states this will not be a problem and the kitchen will be happy to fill my special request. Jordyn, comes back about 5 minutes later and informs our table that the "happy hour" price of $3.00 off of our chicken wings expired because she tried to enter it and the clock on their POS system clocked over at 1701 hours. I ask Jordyn to get the manager to override the prices as we have already been seated and ordered prior to the 1700 hour deadline on their "My rule is law" to the minute POS system. (Just for info to the people that don't understand POS. POS ='s Point Of Sale computer system that tracks all orders. This is where servers enter their orders to the computer system that delivers the instructions for the kitchen and bartender and everything else. Including special requests from the customer to the staff of the establishment.) So nothing happens for a while and another server happily brings our chicken wings to our table. I ordered the "Inferno" hot wings and I specifically requested "Flats" only. This was not what I received and I informed the server that I was not accepting the food based on my special request. The server happily took my Inferno wings away back to the kitchen. Shortly thereafter, Jordyn returns to the table to inform us that she has double checked on my special request and that the kitchen was working on it. Fantastic! And then she returns to tell me that the kitchen "chef" (Line cook at best in my opinion) stated that she will not do this. I ask for a manager to attend the my table. A few minutes later the General Manager Scott comes to the table. I address my special request to him and he states that chicken wings are pre-portioned, (Probably SISCO bullshit pre-portioned chicken wing frozen garbage), and that the establishment will not be able to fulfill my special request. I inform Scott that if my special request for the wings is not honored, then I would request the check and I'll take my dining experience elsewhere. I state to Scott that numerous other establishments accommodate special requests for chicken wings as not all customers prefer a mix of winglettes and drumlettes and state to Scott that this may affect business levels if customers do not have this choice. Scott states that, and I quote, "We haven't lost any business yet because of this and we won't in the future." Well, what can you say at this point. As I leave my YELP app open and in plain sight on the table, and I personally observed Scott take note of this as he scurries away without saying goodbye. While I'm away from the table, Scott returns to the table and informs my Client that because the order was taken by the server as "Flats" only chicken wings, they would honor my request. Wonderful! As my Client is now obligated to pass this information on to me. The wings arrive shortly thereafter and OMG spicy! But not enough to make me give in. True hot wing junkies will be pleasantly surprised at first, than get used to the heat and chow down. Maybe using a little bit of the ranch dressing that's offered with the, almost suicide hot wings. Almost perfectly hot, but not enough to make me quit. The hottest wings offered have been conquered! Lol. Stupid hot and spicy, but not enough to make me back down. (Amateurs to stupid hot wings need not order these.) Jordyn, our fantastic server returns numerous times to apologize for the delay in our order. She is not to be held accountable. This girl had been awesome! The reason for my 1 star on this review is as follows; As we ordered chicken wings prior to 1700 hours, the manager refused to change the price after the server entered the order, (1 minute after the prices changed), on the POS system. Absolute bullshit as we sat down well before the happy hour ended. When the General Manager Scott interacted with us, he seemed happy to help, but unwilling to adjust prices and was generally not helpful and almost condescending in answering our requests. I was informed that my future orders would not be accommodated. (Note this future customers) And to make matters worse, nothing on our bill was pro-rated to happy hour pricing. Not the beers or the wings. I Will never return. First and last visit. Scott, you are fired. read more

I came here on my birthday a couple weeks ago for some casual drinks with friends... and overall, I was not impressed. I walked in and grabbed a table... and was ignored. I literally sat there for 15min before somebody came up to me. And even then it was to bring me a menu (she said she wasn't my server and wouldn't take my drink order). In hindsight, I'm wondering if I was supposed to wait to be seated? I'm actually still not sure - if there was a sign it wasn't too obvious, and nobody said anything to me or explained why I was sitting there ignored for so long. (and no, it wasn't THAT busy) Anyways, the servers were good once I finally got one. The beer was good - I definitely liked the selection they have and the prices were reasonable. The food, though, wasn't all that appealing. We ordered a variety of appetizers (buffalo chicken dip, pretzels, corn dogs, dry ribs), and not one was something worth ordering again. Overall, I'd come back for some drinks but probably not for food. And probably not for an occasion. read more

They have been open for I believe almost two weeks now... We have been here 4 times now. We loved the WEM location. This one is way better. The service has been nothing but amazing.

I went with some friends to watch the football game. Although I was fighting a flu, I didn't want to be antisocial so I tagged along. I went with the traditional beer and wings. I had a darker ale with a multiple round of wings. I went all out spicy-Caribbean Jerk. Despite my suppressed taste buds and immunity, everything was delicious. I even think it led to my recovery. I thought parking would be a challenge, but they have a regulated parking system where you enter your licence plate with the reception and your good to go. Service was friendly and prompt. Overall a great experience!!! read more

What 1ST RND lacks in vowels, it definitely makes up for in TVs, burger selection and space. 1st RND hardly reinvents the sports bar but it does do everything a sports bar should do well: ensure TVs are visible from every seat, offer a ton of burgers and wing options and have lots of different beers on tap with the occasional drink special on the mediocre beers that go down easy while watching a game. The interior is definitely an upgrade from the previous establishment that was housed in the building as they've made things feel much more wide-open with a style that does a good job of being very sports-centric without crossing the line into pure corniness. I really think they've done an amazing job of making the place unmistakably a sports bar without just plastering memorabilia haphazardly all over the place. The food selection is pretty impressive as you can make your own burgers and there are a ton of wing flavours but the actual food quality was pretty average. I split a party platter with some friends and we got a hefty amount of finger foods but nothing stood out as anything out of the ordinary. The food definitely hit the spot for a 3 hour football game but it wouldn't be my top choice for a bite if there weren't any games on (heaven forbid). The one thing that really separated 1st RND from other sports bars during my first visit was the service. I'm used to pretty mediocre service at sports bars and doubly so for new ones but on my first visit everyone was spectacular from the host who took down my name and number to the two servers that took our orders throughout a busy NFL playoff game. The bar was packed with a lot of big groups but our servers were super attentive and patient as we yelled our orders over dozens of screaming sports hooligans. Huge kudos to this new establishment for not only having well-trained staff but also having enough people on the floor to ensure everyone was waited on efficiently. read more

Really enjoy the food and selections of beer here. They have a good mix of everything. The Taylor Hall Burger is pretty great. The original wings are some of the best in town. There is a good selections of draft and bottle beer for changing it up. Food service and bartenders are prompt. The hostesses seem slightly timid. I am really not sure how minors are allowed in this establishment as there is no partition between a dining room/lounge area. That's really my only complaint... The bar is geared towards adults, yet there are kids still permitted to dine in. read more

The food was very good! Better than I expected! The beer menu is phenomenal! This is a Place to get burgers and wings, a few meal size salads, this is not a place to go for gourmet, but it is kicked up a notch comfort food that delivers a little more quality and flavour than we expected. The staff are competent and cooperative and really seem to enjoy helping you enjoy your visit. I have been to a lot of places that treat you a little like they are doing you a favour letting you visit. At least today 1st RND and our server Trish was worthy of 10 out of 10!

I went to 1st Rnd for the first time last night for an Oilers game day live event. I've been to a number of these and am normally disappointed with the service and the lack of enthusiasm from my server. I was pleasantly shocked last night. My server, Sarah L was phenomenal! As soon as I walked in, before I had sat down she asked if I wanted a drink, was on the ball with refills and kept us up to date on our food order. I also find sometimes I get ignored by servers as I'm the only girl in a group of about 6 guys, but she was just as involved with me as the others! I was also very impressed with the staff as a whole when they all stopped moving when Oh Canada was played. It looked like a well run machine with lots of teamwork. I'll definitely be back. read more
