Our story

Established in 1905, the King Edward Hotel was Calgary’s second-oldest hotel and the city’s longest-operating bar and hotel when it closed in 2004. In 2008, the Eddy was acquired by the National Music Centre and, together with the Calgary Municipal Land Corporation, carefully reassembled to honour its original plans and return it to its 1905 glory.In July 2018, we reopened as a restaurant, bar, and music venue. Today, we continue to build on our storied musical legacy as a cornerstone of music, community, and culture in Calgary’s East Village, pairing live performances with a full kitchen, bar, and relaxed dining experience.

Over cooked tasteless rice rinse in water with a curry sauce that only tastes hot. If there was flavour in the curry it was impossible to tell. The chicken cut felt like a third world country priced like you would eat in a 5 stars restaurant. The pita that came with it was burnt on one side in some butter garlic oil. Stay away you’ve been worn.Over all overpriced and not the only one that has been disappoint.

This makes for a terrific Sunday brunch. The food is excellent, and you get a show from Carter Felker and usually a guest. It's a nice way to ease into your Sunday!

We did the Mother's Day Brunch and were really disappointed in the experience compared to what we received. The food was underwhelming. Pre-made eggs benny stuck to the chaffing dish and became destroyed as soon as anyone tried to lift them on to the plate. They were super chewy and rubbery after sitting for so long. The options were salad, eggs benny, scrambled eggs, bacon/sausage, buns and brisket. There was a pastry table that was stale and all purchased from what looked like costco. Nothing had much flavour. It was a 1.5 hour event and the live music was only 40 mins long. The rest of the time they didn't even have background music playing.The orange juice and mocktails were watered down.I won't return unless I'm coming for a specific music event and would stick to wine or beer.

I can’t express enough how wonderful our experience was at the Kind Eddy on Sunday for brunch. The servers were very welcoming and happy. They helped each other with ease which made our visit most enjoyable. The food was scrumptious too! Well done

So - King Eddy’s is pretty amazing! The location was within walking distance from our hotel, and we’re so glad we decided to give it a try. We were lucky enough to visit on a night when they featured some pretty epic comedians! The service is exceptional- we lacked for nothing. Stephanie was our server, she was friendly, efficient and attentive. I enjoyed the poutine and house salad. Mr. Wonderful had a burger, fries and a cabbage and apple coleslaw. Everything was served promptly and was delicious. If you’re anywhere near this establishment - make sure to pay it a visit - it’s well worth it.

We went there to see Alex Hughes, a superb night. As we had paid for tickets the staff were so attentive to find us the best table to see the show. Imagine how crazy busy this place can be, but our server didn't miss a beat all evening. Great sound quality, not too loud that we couldn't chat. Other than that, it's a terrific live music venue and we will be back! Oh, and great beers on tap too!

What’s changed in the kitchen?!!! UNBELIEVABLE!!! I brought my hungry little wifey for brunch she usually eats a half a plate and she couldn’t stop and wanted to try all the things! Now I have to carry her to the car! Great job guys we’ll be back! - Also the live music was a fun touch to the experience
