    Dirty Shirley no grenadine

    I ordered a dirty Shirley and they did not have grenadine ‍ still recommend just a little disappointed

    Full table and the big guy seems happy.

    Four of us enjoyed Main Street last night for the first time - Airdrie has been missing a place like this. Folks are going to say that this restaurant is just Standard Tap rebooted, but more than just a bar this place has quite a good menu and was getting busy when we arrived just before 7pm on Friday. As a BBQ joint barometer we always start with the fried pickles - they were great but it happens we prefer them in chip rather then spear form - no big problem here. In typical real BBQ fashion, the smoked meats, including brisket, pulled pork, turkey or pork ribs are served in 1/2 pound portions around the $10 range. You can also get a half chicken or "hot links" sausage (Kielbassa). I liked the links but found the smoked casings a bit hard to cut - if you like the sausage 'snap', you'll love these. They happened to be out of chicken but it's ok we'll get some next time. Sides are extra but reasonable and include the usual coleslaw and beans but more spectacular the homemade mac and cheese and sweet smoked corn - these were beautiful. Our ordering approach (since we didn't see a sampler) was to order several meats and sides and just shared - between 4 adults this worked out great, we came away stuffed and bill (food only) came to under $70 which seemed pretty reasonable. The good folks from Half Hitch brewery in Cochrane were trolling around giving out samples of their Farmers Daugher Pale Ale which went nicely with the BBQ... Decore/ambiance fit the venue with lots of TV including 2 monster screens. Staff were friendly, relaxed and in good humour, joking with our table - the assistant manager brought us into the kitchen for a quick look at their smokers, already full of the next days goodness. Well done Main Street, best of luck...will be looking forward to our next visit... Cheers

    This is one of the best places we've eaten for bbq for quite some time. The brisket was so tender you didn't need a knife. The sides were massive and the corn bread with honey butter was amazing. Lots of tv's to entertain all crowds.

    The beer is cold, the meat is delicious, and I'd marry the broccoli salad if I could. The service is also always so friendly and quick!

    Met friends here for Wednesday Wing night! Found out that wing night is very popular with the…read morelocals. This was our first time at this pub. Who would have thought that a pub has over 100 different flavours of wings! From mild to extremely hot that you have to sign a waver before eating!! This establishment is not that big inside. Very rustic looking inside, more of a western feel with odd things scattered around. Like a Manikin in a corner, a machine that had a wizard inside that looked like the one in the movie BIG with Tom Hanks. Which looked very cool. As soon as we sat the server gave us menus and told us about special drinks and wings. Had a wonderful time even though it started to get very busy. After looking over the menu, we ordered Beer, Cesars, Wine for drinks and food was dill pickle wings, Applewood BBQ wings, Mango Chilli wings, Fry's and gravy. Must say everything was very delicious!! - located in a mini mall in a residential area - parking lot is very small shared with other businesses. We will definitely be returning!

    Oh boy... We really, really, really, REALLY wanted to like this place and I was all but set on…read moregiving a five star review before we even went for our first experience. Lesson learned. I hope, fingers crossed, they are just finding their footing right now and are interested in improving their already characteristic business which could be on it's way up after 5 months of being open. (July 20, 2020). I KNOW you guys got this and I believe you have a gold mine on your hands, if you so choose. In the beginning... We had never heard of Wild Card until I happened to pop on the City of Airdrie's website looking at 'new businesses'. 'Wild Card Shack' struck me as a place we should know and like, so I Googled it. Website- Half built, only the menu available, no business hours, no promo's advertised. Facebook- Decent information available, no promo's, no business hours. Google- Leads to incomplete website, hours displayed wrong. Restaurant/ Pub- lots of unadvertised specials displayed, decent menu, hours displayed wrong (out front). Come on guys! Consistency among all your platforms please. 101! Where is your PR? It was a quiet Sunday at 12:30pm that we popped in for lunch. Service started well with our Server wearing a lower, plastic face mask. One table of 2 was already seated before us and another table of 2 came in about 30 min after us. Total= 3 tables (6 people). Drinks, great. Time to place order, decent. Wait to receive our order? Fifty five (55) minutes. I totally get the wait if the kitchen is busy, but this was not the case. The table behind us (who were there before we arrived) had to ask where their food was. Our Server had ditched her mask well before she delivered our food and didn't wear one for the rest of our visit. Lucky we didn't walk out in this day and age of CoVid. Food was both a blessing and a curse. The steak was done beautifully, the Monster burger, cooked to a perfect 'medium' (not sure if this was the cooks intention, some Canadians would have called the burger 'rare or underdone' and sent it back, but not us!) and the burger was dripping with bbq sauce (each patty seemed to be dipped in sauce). After 2 bites Hubs had to take a knife and fork to it. Not complaining about the size, it was just sloppily put together, without care. The fries, raw and flaccid. Sent back one order (I wasn't going to bother sending mine back even though I should have) and the second order came out the exact same way. We didn't eat any of the 3 orders of fries. Our Server gave us a 'staff discount' off the burger which was $2.85. SMH. Also, why are you serving chicken gravy with the steak sandwich or the aforementioned beef burger? Tons of character, great music, friendly-ish staff, tons of specials (can't really keep track) and the bathrooms were NOT pretty. Looking forward to when you get more established. With a little attention to detail you WILL be the best burger in the city. We will be back another time soon and hopefully with an updated review. It's 5:00 somewhere!
