Last night met a few friends there and we didn't order right away because it was quiet so had a couple of drinks and chatted. Before we knew it the place was packed to the rafters! Even with that the team there still got our food out quickly between the buckets of wings they served other tables. I had the ginger beef bowl which seemed small but filled me up perfectly and the Duke Tea, a tasty boozy beverage that went down way way to easily! read more

Decent beer selection and so-so food but seems to attract a very sketchy clientele. I'd much rather stick to the tried and true establishments on 17th Ave. read more

P&D was recommended by a good friend and as is in our neighborhood we decided to drop by for dinner. After we were finally able to place our order the food arrived after 30 minutes and both were dry and tasteless (wings & quesadillas). The server said she could have taken care of it but when told she didn't come by to inquire she said, "Honey, I am two servers down and am very busy here?" Really? Honey? Busy? Ah well, it could be an interesting hangout when they are not down on staff but we won't be back to check it out. read more

Great food. Great ipa selection as I love iPas. Always good service and great garlic fries. FYI not many follow the say of garlic fries and then they r not. read more

I finally tried Pig and Duke. It's a 3 minute walk from by bf's house, but we've never thought to visit until last night. It was crazy busy and loud since the hockey game was on. TV's are all over the place, I mean, every angle your eyes turn, you'll catch a glimpse of some sport or other. Anywho, despite the huge crowds of people all over the place, it didn't take long to have our server offer us menus and something to drink. The menu is mostly standard pub fare, heavy on the pork products, but does have a few vegetarian options as well as gluten free buns. I ordered a cider and the veggie burger /salad. My bf had a couple ales and the beef burger/mash potato. Our food was good, on par with The Ship's food but at a higher price point, and throughout our server kept checking in. All in all a pretty decent first experience. They have specials on every day as well as pool tables and support Arsenal for those who watch soccer when World Cup isn't on. read more

Probably the best burger I've had. The Duke burger is loaded with flavor, pulled pork, bacon and lto, accompanied with garlic fries. We also had the fish and chips, another winner! Great atmosphere and excellent service to top it all off for a great night out read more

Came with work colleagues for lunch, six of us. My Caesar Salad had some huge pieces of rotten lettuce in it. Everyone else's food was mediocre, plus one person's chicken wrap was missed and got his lunch 10 minutes after ours. The music was much to loud for a lunch crowd, couldn't hear each other talk. Paid the bill and we tipped according to service (poor), food (mediocre) and ambiance (loud music), the Waitress (Rochelle) questioned why she was getting such a poor tip, "What? I'm only getting a $6 tip?" were her exact words, I can't believe she had balls to say that to us. Our company will not be coming back. read more

Owners are really kind and love chatting with them! Food is incredible. Service always great. Awesome little pub to hang out or just grab a yummy bite. read more

Went here last night had 2 appis, and 2 entrees. The appis were booth sub par. The fish tacos had no flavor at all! The texture was fresh but nothing more. My girl had salt and pepper wing and they were not very good. We couldn't put our fingers on it maybe it was the non granular salt, or the fact that they felt like they had too much skin. Entrees were good we had the prime dip, and the duke burger. The prime dip looked good and came with a strip of really good candied bacon. I had the duke burger with a side salad. The dressing for the side salad was almost in edible, but the burger was amazing! The burger is the 1 extra star out of this meal. read more

This is a great neighbourhood pub. We live a few blocks away and come here often. The specials are where it's at - $5 burger on Mondays and happy hour beers? Yes please! They also have a great steak sandwich special on Fridays. The food is better than most pubs but has the same 'pub' atmosphere that I love. The downtown location feels too chain-restauranty to me but this location is the perfect level of dark, comfortable and pub-ish (that's a thing). It bears repeating that the food is awesome too. Lots of pork centric dishes and some delicious burgers too. The noodle bowl is also amazing with lots of pork belly and gyoza. The Caesar salad with candied bacon is fantastic too. The prices are a bit high after happy hour but that seems to be the norm in Calgary these days. Service has always been fairly good too. read more

Had the special which was very good but I was told I can't take home the leftovers because what I ordered was on special. Not sure why I can't take the food I just paid for home? I thought once I started eating my meal it became my food. But they took it back and threw it in the garbage. read more

If you're looking for surprisingly good quality food and cheap drinks, this is the place to go. The menu is very heavy on the pork, and they do wonderful things with it. However, they also offer a beer-battered traditional fish & chips that is incredibly well done; in fact, it is some of the best done fish in the city, and I'm a Maritimer so I'm picky about my fish. Most entrees are $12-$16, appetizers are anywhere from $1 for the pork fat popcorn up to over $10. The excellent food combined with daily $4.50 drink specials and a great beer selection makes for a wonderful pub. The venue itself is also really nice, it's clean and well-laid out with lots of seating, and they play music at a reasonable volume. The staff is friendly and and the service is great. The only thing I would recommend is that they include a few more vegetarian options on the menu. read more

I love this local pub for its delicious frog leg nights, its unpretentiousness, its range of beer on tap, and its friendly servers. They have daily specials (many of the food ones include pork, hence the name) and decent prices for local beers. The ambience is chilled-out and inviting with lots of wood and various televisions, as well as a pool table. I've come for brunch and I would not recommend it, but their dinner food and appetizers are great. The summer patio is also nice, and there is free parking in the building if you look for it. A great addition to the neighbourhood. read more

Short trip. 2 beers, great service, nice atmosphere. I felt like bacon. Ordered a side. 2 slices cost FOUR DOLLARS. What the hell? $5 for terrific local beer, $4 for 2 slices of bacon when I could have bought a pound for that price. Crazy. Fix your pricing. read more

I had low expectations when I ordered the Steak Sandwich on special, but I was very surprised at the quality and flavour of the steak, great tasting French fries and a very decent Caesar Salad. I highly recommend it for great pub food. Also, the staff are super nice and the beer selection is top notch! read more

Great pub, great pub food! The fish and chips are awesome, the parm chips are seriously delish! My husband swears by the mac&cheese! Beer selection is really good. Staff is awesome & friendly. Love this place as our go-to pub! read more

So after work, I randomly passed by the restaurant and decided to go to the restaurant to grab a quick dinner and some alcohol with my girlfriend just before we go out on Friday night. To start off with the drink, I did my regular caesar order, and I asked the waitress to recommend me a drink for my girlfriend, so she said some kind of beer and I took it. Whatever the drink was, there's no gas to it, and it is also very sugery. So I asked the waitress nicely if there is a mistake about the drink, and she laughed at me and told me this is how a beer suppose to taste like, sounding like me and my girl never had a beer in our life before. So, moving on from there, I ordered steak for myself with caesar salad. Steak was asked to be medium rare, and about an inch into the steak, its icy. I also attached a photo of the caesar salad below as you can see, they toss cheese on top of an half-cut lettuce. Having experiencing such service and horrible food just totally ruined our night, and I will never ever go back to such place again. I just hope others don't have to go through the same experience as I did here. read more

Pig & Duke - This is their caesar salad. - Pubs Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

This is a fun pub with surprisingly good food. I went for the first time during the Stanley Cup playoffs and had a great time. It was extremely busy so service was slow but not extraordinary. The Parmesan chips/fries I had as a side were *out of this world*. The friends I was with are regulars who recommended just about every item on the menu and everyone was happy with their meal and all the food looked and smelled fantastic. I look forward to coming here again and trying something else.... And very likely, again, with the Parmesan chips on the side. read more

I thought the food here is surprisingly good. After spending 4 months in Mexico, I ordered the pork tacos and I thought they were better than Mexican tacos. I also ordered the perogies and I thought it was the best perogie dish and that's saying a lot because I'm Ukrainian. read more

THE BRUNCH WILL MAKE YOU THINK STEALING IS OK Seriously. For $10? All you can eat buffet with eggs benny, eggs wrapped in Canadian Bacon, a whole heap of other goodies including chocolate cake and.............lettuce. Ok so their Chef Evan obviously likes his salad. It really is good quality and ridiculous value. As I said, you walk out wondering if you have stolen from them. Other food: The wings are great value on wing night, big juicy wings, not the little fleck of meat you usually find on "Wing Night". The quesadilla and lasagne are superb. The taste is really good. For a neighbourhood pub the food is very good. The beer selection is pretty large and the atmousphere is good. It is generally busy, certainly at Arsenal FC match days which the pub opens early for. Overall one of the best pubs for food in Calgary. read more

The menu boldly states "All pours 20 oz", but when all four different beers showed up at our table in 16 oz glasses. I really don't mind drinking a 16 oz beer, but if I'm paying for a 20oz beer, I want a 20 oz beer. No big deal...until I mentioned this to our server, Jamie-Lynn, and she told me to "suck it up". Yikes. Back to server school for you, Jamie-Lynn. As this point I asked to see a manager, and she refused. Not ready to ruin the meals of my friends and I, I let it drop, so dear manager...now you know. read more

I visited this establishment two evenings in a row; the first for drinks and the second for drinks and food. The restaurant has a lounge area and dining area, but you're able to seat yourself anywhere in the restaurant, which is nice depending on your mood. I'll begin with the service, which could use improvement. We had a different server each evening so it wasn't an isolated incident; however, since the restaurant is fairly new the servers may be new to serving as well. The first evening we ordered beer and a couple orders of the daily special. The daily special ended up coming out first and was almost finished before the beer arrived. Our glasses were empty before we were asked if we wanted another drink. At one point when another person joined us we told her to go to the bar to order her drink because our waitress had not been checking on us. The second evening was busier than the first, but we had a similar experience. We would have empty beer glasses on the table for up to 15 minutes while the server would walk by checking on tables one at a time (taking one table's order and entering it in instead of checking on multiple tables at once). We ordered the wing special before ordering dinner and not once did the server come by to ask how our food was. Now to the food, which was very good. We ordered the bacon dust (wings with bacon bits) and dill popcorn wings and thought they were very well done. On Wednesdays they have 10 chicken wings, duck wings or frog legs for $4.50. They have many other wing flavours to choose from. We also ordered the popcorn, which was just OK. We didn't think it had much flavour. For my entree I ordered the swimmer burger, which was large prawns wrapped in bacon. I really enjoyed the burger and the fries. The prawns were huge and well cooked. My friends also enjoyed their meals, the classic burger, mac and cheese and perogies. The restaurant has a good selection of beer with beer specials changing daily. Draft beer is also very reasonably priced with actual 20 ounce pints. Overall we all agreed that the food salvaged the experience with the service. I will visit the restaurant again, but I might give it a few months to allow for them to get the wrinkles out of the service. If that happens and the food stays at that quality the restaurant will do very well and I will have to come back and adjust my rating. read more

It's a decent bar but extremely expensive. It cost me just just short of $10 for a regular beer with a 15% tip. The same beer is available at bars along 17th Ave for around $6. Don't think I'll be going back there! read more

Servic was very slow, food literally took an hour to arrive. Worst, so called curry bowl I've ever had. The flank steak was small and flavourless. Will not be tpretrunung and would suggest others don't waste their time. read more

I was here Friday night for a promotional event with some friends. It was super busy but we already had a table set up, which was nice. I was starving and looking over the menu I was impressed! They had a really nice selection with some unique and original items. I liked the popcorn as well, I dont know what it was but it was on the table when I arrived. When it came time to order, our waitress took FOREVER. We literally waited 20 minutes for a glass of wine, and I think double that for the food. She kept walking by, taking other tables orders, but not checking back with us. I ordered the steak bites and WOW they were good...very nicely done and not overcooked, tons of flavor, SPICY - which was unexpected but I loved it. Another friend ordered the chicken bomb which was REALLY yummy, totally delicious and unique tasting. From that point on, the drinks were flowing and the conversation was going and I didn't pay much attention to the waitress, although I did notice she was coming around more often at that point. I WILL be back, the "Pig" sandwich/burger looks epic!!! read more

Very disappointed after watching You've Got to Eat here and driving almost 3 hours to do just that! Ordered the meatloaf which came out lukewarm on the exterior and barely thawed on the inside. I sent it back and told the server I didn't want another dish since we had waited too long already. My daughter's medium rare flat iron steak was blue in places and just meh ... The worst part was NO ONE and I mean NO ONE cared. No Manager came to apologize or offer an explanation ... would NOT recommend anyone waste their time or their money on this place. We went back to our hotel and ordered food to our room so we could at least eat before we went to bed! read more

Food is good. Ambience is great. Parking is an issue but its worth the effort. Have been there few times and always came back satisfied

Amazing food, and a fun atmosphere. I have tried almost everything and can't complain! Never overly busy so you rarely have to wait to get a table which is nice. Perfect neighbourhood pub. Wouldn't be my favourite place for level of service but isn't the worst. read more

Fun night out with friends. Typical bar food and good environment - watched some Olympics. Waitress could have been a little more friendly - saying that service was still good. read more

Pig and Duke has always been one of my favourite places for burgers and beer in Calgary until last Friday when my boyfriend and I had a very bad customer service. Since it was Stampede week, we expected it to be full but there was only a few occupied tables inside although the patio was full. We went to our usual table which a group of customers just left. We were approached immediately by a girl who was offering free beer samples and said that soon somebody will clear the table. We waited for 10 minutes and nobody came so I suggested to switch to the next table which was I thought would be more visible to the servers. After another baffling 10 minutes of waiting while the servers where happily chatting and ignoring us, we finally thought that we will be served when one of the servers came our way. But no, she went straight to the dirty table instead of attending to us potential customers. After a frustrating 20 minute wait we left and went to Ke Charcoal Grill where we had the best food and service. Oh Pig and Duke, you disappoint us. read more

New pub right close to work, had to try it out. Went on Friday, just before a late movie. They have really stepped up the service judging from comments on previous yelps. We had great service very attentive and friendly , drinks , nachos for a snack ,were great compared to most bars, salsa, guacamole made in house as per our services and were very tasty. Hot chips and loads of toppings with lots of chicken added. All four of had something different for dinner fish and chips "great", qusadia "pretty good" , steak sandwich "tasty"', cheese burger "really good" gotta go back and try. The pig burger one day......... read more

The beer selection is good. The atmosphere is good. The menu is good. Despit a couple snafus with service it is worth the trip. Will return. Love Innus & Gunn on draft. read more

Ordered the fish & chips on a Thursday which were extremely cheap but the quality was genuinely appalling. So much greasy disgusting batter and the fish itself was as a very poor standard. I do love coming down here for a drink so came back a few Sundays later for their 'stampede breakfast'. Turns out this consists of eggs, tomato and onion on a small plate... Hmmmm. They then charged me $7 for a side of bacon (2 strips) and toast. I think I will stick to the drinks here in the future! Lift your game guys read more

Customer service is not good but the food is ok. We had a large group and the waitress made a big fuss about not calling ahead even though it was not busy inside. The service is also very slow and it has been the case every single time. Expect to wait at least half an hour for your food. read more

Service was lackluster at best. Food was slightly overpriced for both the quantity and quality. $3 for the sides of gravy was outrageous; cash grabs like that are just annoying. And the defaulted 20% gratuity option on the debit machine was just arrogant. Had to go out of my way to drop it to 10%, and that was generous. Not saying that this place deserves to go under, just adjust your expectations accordingly. read more
