Description

Located in a rough area of Calgary, this loud dive bar with live bands may appeal to some, but not everyone. The food is subpar, prices challenging, and clientele unimpressive. However, servers try their best in the negative atmosphere. A fun spot for those who enjoy dive bars, live music, and karaoke. On the flip side, it's not recommended for those seeking a quiet dining experience. Despite the rough exterior, the neighborhood pub offers great food and welcoming staff. With fantastic specials and a vibrant atmosphere, it's a hit with regular customers. Overall, an unpretentious spot with good food worth trying.

The Border Crossing is aptly named, if you, like me, get a little uneasy when crossing into the States.
