The Wildwood Pub

Location: 4th Street, aka The Mission, probably the coolest area in Calgary.

Back in Waterloo, I spent alot of time at the Huether Hotel. The Huether is a giant pub, restaurant and cafe located in Uptown Waterloo. It's 5 levels which includes everything from Cafe 1842 to the Barley Works. The wings rival The Anchor Bar in Buffalo (the creator of Chicken Wings) & the beer is very very cheap and brewed on site.

Wildwood is something like this. The beer isn't anywhere near as cheap, & I didn't have any wings, but the atmosphere is much the same. It's more laid back and low key, where people just do their thing vs a joint like Melrose Place. Much like the Huether, there is a restaurant, but it's the upper floor. The pub is in the basement. Good place to go & hopefully I wil be living in that 'hood.
