Reviews for Black Bull Pub in Calgary, AB
First time here. I have to admit, the unexpectedly warm and friendly atmosphere took me by surprise. Also, how busy it was,... crazy. A friend suggested it for their wings night and a bevvy as a get together. Aside from the Metallica level volume of thegame on TV I would honestly recommend this place. Good food, lots of friendly staff and the price cant be beat. Read more

Great little pub myself and the boys go for Friday lunch most times. Food is decent, but we go for the waitress, I believe her... name is Irene? Shes awesome and always gives us good laughs! Read more
Went on their wing night. Food is good, price is good, not too crowd, wings are great. Good to have in the community.
I love this pub. Ended up going there one night after driving past it for 8 years and loved the experience. The staff are... friendly, it's always busy, the food is good, the prices are decent, really couldn't find much to complain about for this place.The other patrons there were all really good to talk to and have great things to say about it too.

Stopped by for wing night and great first impression when we walked in. Lovely bar. Everyone was enjoying their wings. We were... optimistic we ventured upon a local gem. Decided to sit at the bar to get more space than a high table too we were offered.Quickly regretted that decision. Wings were mediocre. Over small, cooked and dry. But for 31 cents a pop who can complain right?Well we were told must order a drink and it?s 20 wings max per drink order. Okay no problem. Wish they mentioned that on theirwebsite but no biggie. I ordered a beer. Wife ordered water. We ordered 20 wings for late night snack. Oddly lady working thebar came and said we must order another drink. Sure thing?give us an orange juice. What?s next? We must spend a minimum $ inyour back room slots machine? All in all you get what you pay for. Can?t really expect Cactus Club service at a local dive likethis but at least make it seem like you enjoy what you do or at least try and pretend. Would recommend you ask to be seated ata table for a higher chance of better service. The ladies running the table seemed wonderful and pleasant. Just oddly the ladyworking the bar on this Thursday night clearly didn?t want to be there and have learnt to hide the fact. What a shame. Settledthe hill and tipped well regardless because at least the gentlemen that served us at the bar deserved it. Read more
This place is bad for a low end townie dive bar....... food is over priced, low qualify and small portioned. Attached is a pic... of their $18 beef dip. Aside from being the lowest quality ingredients, the meat had a gross gamy taste, the fries didn't evencome up to rim of the cup and the wings I ordered were the usually cheap low quality ones you'd expect, but didn't even haveenough sauce to cover them. The wait staff is OK, but nothing came of these issues, when addressed. If you want a good pub inthis area, drive 5 minutes away to Gallagher's instead. Read more
We had the special Steak sandwhich was done just right. Would have liked the steak to be a little bigger however the trimmings... of fries and salad were good. Waitress was very good, prompt, polite, and personable with a nice smile! Read more
