Food scene
Best Ice Cream in town - about 10 min walk from home along the scenic 17th Ave. On a hot day there might be a line up on the street - don't be hesitant, it is 100% worth it. You can try yourself through unusual, intriguing flavor combinations and maybe even grab a container for the fridge at home.

Fun pub in an historic building in the heart of downtown, right by the C-train station. In the summer it's amazing to spend the evening in their interior patio, removed from the street noise, but still enjoying the skyscrapers all around. Great food and drinks. Highly recommended menu item: deep fried pickles!
In the basement they have concerts almost every night - check the website!

Lovely place in the middle of the most gorgeous park of the City - Prince's Island Park. In the summer - great place for food and drinks on the large patio surrounded by greenery, flowers and birds. In the winter they serve the most unbelievable hot chocolate, which can be enjoyed after a few rounds on skating on the frozen river.

The space speaks for itself and offers many spaced to sit and enjoy the view of the surrounding downtown. There are a cafe and a children play area inside the library.

One of Calgary's absolute hot spots. Designed by a famous Spanish architect, the deep-red woven bridge quickly became the most photographed structure in the City. Its located in the middle of downtown close to Prince's Park, Eau Claire Market and the main bike route along the river.
