   Would not recommend, Calgary has much better options and I won’t be back. Thought I’d try this newer restaurant for lunch with a friend. Staff and ambiance was nice. The menu was odd with limited options. The food was significantly overpriced for what you get. I ordered a chicken sandwich expecting a handheld sandwich of some variation with a side. It was an open faced soggy piece of bread with round chicken medallions (not breast meat as had some fat) and gravy/peas. No sides included and definitely not worth $23! The breakfast sandwich looked and apparently tasted decent but for over $20 and no sides that’s far too expensive. If you’re going to spend that much I’d go to Major Tom or Barbarella as the food is much better. Definitely disappointed.

   Hey Robyn. I apologize about your experience at Pigeonhole today. This feedback serves as a trigger point for us to reevaluate our menu verbiage and pricing. It is also is clear to me that we failed in our communication with the quality check, after you had received the dish. Robyn, we hold ourselves to a high standard, and this goes a long way to us becoming the best version of Pigeonhole that we can possibly be. Please feel free to reach out to me at GJaques@pigeonholeyyc.ca if you have any other details of your experience you would like to discuss. Gabriel Jaques, GM

   A great happy hour, one of the best in the city! All drinks half price, including cocktails. Get the mushroom croquettes, the tartare, the ceviche and that flan with coconut.

   Last week I went to pigeon hole & asked for the cheese to be changed on the burger. They didn’t charge me for it. But today when I went they asked for an extra $2.50 to change the cheese!!! What!! Why do they even have the fake cheese at a place like this! Do better pigeon hole & take away the fake cheese from the menu!

   I loved sitting at the bar until they started cooking deep fried food, smell was off putting. Service was amazing, would definitely sit elsewhere, will be back.
