You could always drive down towards Mcleod

Koreana BBQ, Gauchos, Kinjo's, Seven Seas

Where are you working? My office is on that corner


Anyways for food, this is where we eat at:

- Thi Thai subs in Deerfoot meadows.
- Wonton King on Glenmore.
- Alloy on 42nd.
- Chop or whatever in Chinook.
- Smugglers inn on MacLeod
- Cactus Club on MacLeod
- Hose and Hound in Inglewood (you said you went there, we find the food fairly 'cheap')
- There is a Vietnamese place in inglewood that is good too
- Stage west behind shell on 42nd has a good buffet on Fridays I think.
- BP's in deerfoot meadows.



If it just the office grunts we usually do Coco Brooks or one of the quick places (wonton, thi thai, subway, A&W) but if we are taking one of the clients out we go to the sit down places. I know not ALL of those places have booze but stills omething good.

Blind Beggar - corner of Macleod & 50th Ave.

Daily beer specials, although the only one I know of is $4.50/pint of Big Rock beers on Fridays since that was the only day my old co-workers and I went.

Keiths Deli, in the strip mall across from Chinook by the Red Lobster.

Step 1: Double, Large Keiths special
Step 2: Garlic burps for 5 hours

This FTMFW, even though they don't serve booze, which OP said is a must.

but i prefer the reuben with double meat myself.

Keiths is so delicious you don't need booze. You get drunk off delicious sandwich flavor.
