We are never disappointed with any of the food we have ever had at this location! Service was great, atmosphere is great!
Really good food at decent prices! Nice quiet atmosphere. Will definitely recommend!
Had the fish and chips. It was excellent and was big enough for my wife and I to split 1 order for lunch.
Great service, ambiance, and selection of food!!
I would definately give them a try if you have not already.
One of the guys in the western store recommended State and Main to us. It ended up being one of our favorite meals of our trip to Banff - and Calgary was just a side stop for half a day, so we were more than pleasantly surprised with how awesome it was. Our server was wonderful. I don't recall his name, but he is burly and bearded and naturally so friendly - he chatted with my husband about nostalgic sodas. We loved the atmosphere. The fries with dill sauce were so good that we barely had enough room for the generous dinner portions! I had leftovers for lunch and then some. When we come back to Banff next year, we are coming to Calgary almost exclusively to get our nom on at State and Main!
First time and will be returning, excellent food, service and ambiance!
Great food friendly staff and comfortable atmosphere!!
I've been to quite a few locations, Great service here!
It was cold....the front doors wouldn't close and my fish tacos were literally lettuce tacos...couldn't even taste a hint of fish...very disappointing!
First time there and we LOVE IT and will be going back
Rocket salad is the best around
Got the cheese burger and chicken burger. Service was fine. Burgers were alright... Definitely had better. The fries were pretty good. About $18 for a burger is a bit steep but definitely comparable to similar restaurants

March 29th 2018 was my last day of work. After work, my boyfriend drove me to State & Main Kitchen & Bar to have a dinner. We have been State & Main in the City of Lethbridge before. This was our first time having dinner at this Calgary location. We had a pleasant dining experience at this restaurant.
Environment
We arrived the restaurant around 5 pm. It was not busy. We could get a table very easier. After we sat down, the server brought the menu to us. Inside the restaurant, all the setting and decorations were the same as other State & Main location. It was very nice and clean.
Serve
Our table server was very nice and friendly. She gave us great suggestions for the drink. Very helpful.
Food & Prices
We have ordered $17.00 PACIFIC RIM NOODLE BOWL and STEAK SANDWICH $21.50. Our food came out the kitchen was fast. They were all well cooked and fresh. Inside my noodle bowl included chicken, shrimp, steamed vegetables & rice noodles, simmered in a spicy flavorful broth. chili oil & fresh lime on the side. It was very health noodle bowl. I loved the soup flavor so much. The steak sandwich was enjoyed by my boyfriend’s dining companions. It was six-ounce steak, seasoned & cooked your way; served open faced on garlic toasted french bread. All the dish seemed like a great value for us. We enjoyed the atmosphere, food, and the service so much. Highly recommend people go State & Main.
Bar tender was super cool, he had really great recommendations.The the shrimp on the appetizer menu was insanely good. The chicken wrap was make perfectly. Nice place with cool vibe. Defiantly Would recommend!
Had a Caesar was pretty standard. The Pickled Bean looked a little bit old and on the seated side as opposed to a normal pickled Bean which is supposed to be bright green.
The mash potatoes we're pretty good but you can't really messed that up unless they are boxed.
The reuben sandwich was good little bit on the salty side but I think it's supposed to be salty.
Greek salad with feta was also standard.
French fries were standard and rushed not to a Golden Crisp and not soggy.
If you're hungry and looking for a quick drink then this place would be okay but nothing super unique and experience was standard.
The Bulldogs here are great. Their crispy sushi roll appetizer is so yummy. Their bruschetta is a great price and tastes delicious with the melted cheese. The atmosphere is nice but is a bit dark for a Friday afternoon. Their bison burger is lean and I prefer it over beef.
Decent little place, good for just a casual dinner. We went on a Wednesday evening around 6:30PM just to get a drink/bite to eat and catch up. Food is decent, and atmosphere is relaxed.
State and Main is a franchise restaurant with locations across Alberta that offers traditional, hearty kitchen fare. I found that my experiences at different locations have been a bit mixed. There have been times where my food has been served cold, or orders had been forgotten completely, but there have also been times where I have been pleasantly surprised by the speed and friendliness of the service, so it can be a bit of a hit or miss situation. The food overall is good, depending on what you're in the mood for. A personal favourite is the jalapeño mac and cheese! Definitely an option for bigger groups to check out, as there is a lot of seating available, just a luck of the draw for the rest of the experience.
I really like the food here and the service is always great. It's a great place to relax and dine with friends. If you decide to stop by here I recommend trying the momma's meatballs, hummus & naan, and butter chicken poutine. Everything here is relatively large so there's definitely enough to share. The only thing I don't love is how incredibly dark it is in here, but it doesn't take away from the food experience.
Super friendly staff and a nice atmosphere. The food/drinks here are good and the wait times/price are reasonable. This place is an ideal spot for a night out or social gatherings. Would come back here again!
Super yummy!. Went here on a quiet Thurs afternoon as a group of 8. Most of us ordered burgers and sweet potato fries (Which are amaazing). I really enjoyed my grilled cheeseburger, it was huge! I also enjoyed the Wraspberry ale as it was light and really complimented my burger. Everyone was very satisfied with their order and the service. I'd definitely come back!
Great experience. Went for a quick snack and a drink after shopping. The Ceasars were good. Had a soup of the day ham and potato? And the soft pretzels were amazing!!
Amazing!. My new favorite place to eat! The service and food was incredible.
I chose to sit right at the bar counter as I was alone and the place was packed. However, the bartenders were an awesome group of guys and recommended the (amazing, as it turns out) grilled cheeseburge which was super filling. Service was super quick. My only complaint would be that the girls who work there must be super uncomfortable in those heels all day, but oh well! Awesome environment too.
Awesome fish tacos, great service!
Great food. Great service. Best drink menu I have seen in a long time!
Must try - enough said.
So yummy!! Stopped in here for fuel before Christmas shopping and loved everything about it. Great, knowledgeable servers/bartenders (I've been in the industry for 12 years so I've seen my fair share) and the food was great! I had the grilled cheeseburger (fat kid meal!!) and my boyfriend had the bison burger. I don't think we left anything on the plates!! Great spot. Great food!! We will be back!
This place is a total gem. Knowledgeable, engaging bar staff and servers. Everything I've eaten here has been delicious and there Margherita flatbread might be the best think I've ever eaten. Just try it, I dare you. My girlfriend's super-picky on both food and service and this place is certainly our favorite now.
Amazing meal, everything was delicious!
Great service. Great food

Not all bad.. but not great. The good first - while this place is obviously associated with Original Joes (just looking at the menu will verify that), I do find it better quality than OJ's. The food was decent, but is still pub food - if you expect more than that, don't bother. The pretzel sticks are killer though, and they have a decent beer selection. Buffalo Chicken Cheese Steak sandwhich was good, sides were boring though. The atmosphere is decent, and it's a fairly nice place - in those regards it was easy to spend a Saturday evening here. Saw a few other things on the menu I would like to try, when I have time.
Now the not so good... stopped here twice last week, both times I had issue with the service. The first night we stopped by to eat before a late movie, made me glad I bought our tickets online and selected our seats already, because the service was SO slow that we spent way longer in there than expected. Server was not rude, but wasn't friendly, only gave us time to order and never came around to check on us, good thing I only wanted one drink.
Because of it's location, we found ourselves back there on Saturday night for drinks with a few friends. Our server was VERY Friendly, even made conversation... except I think she forgot she was supposed to be serving us. Drinks took forever when we could flag her down to order, and when she did clear our empties, she twice took beer bottles that were still half full. She would disapear for large periods of time and all of us purchased more than one round at the bar directly. Ordered appies, they came out quickly, but not by her. We never did get the waters we asked for several times come to think of it..
It's close to my house, so I'm sure I will be back, but I can't say I would insist on going there next time I make plans.
Pretzels... Mmmm... We went there with 3 in our group. Food was excellent. All 3 meals tasted good, but wouldn't recommend the steak sandwich. Service was not good at all.
I would hate to see if they were actually busy.
Everyone should try it once,the food is worth it. If the service sucks not to go back.
Loved it. Man I thought .... Loved it.
Man I thought it would be another joeys/earls experience. But NOPE. Way better. They have a huge menu which is really nice, and it's all very well priced (definitely cheaper than earls and joeys). The portions were huge. Another win. But most important. The food was delicious!!!! Such good fries! (Often find places never can get fries right). The club sandwhich came with TWO sides!! Mash potatoes anddd a quinoa salad. Both so good.
I will definitely be going here a LOT more. Will replace joeys with stet & main for my pre-movie dinner!
Expensive, but good. You know that Seinfeld rant about getting the bill after your not hungry anymore? But the Mac n Cheese was really stellar. Lol
Awesome!. I have been here twice and each time the food, drinks & service were awesome. I had the Beef Dip the first time & Pulled Pork Sandwich the next time. My boyfriend and friends had the Mac and Cheese with Chorizo & Fish Tacos. All the food was delish and the portion sizes are a great. I am looking forward to my next visit.
Impressed. My wife and I stopped in after the the sushi place next door (Globefish) smelled a little too fishy (that's for another review). The food was fine and on par with any other similar establishment and the service was exceptional.
My wife had the fish tacos, which were grilled as opposed to fried (a nice change of pace) and I had the veggie burger which was surprisingly pretty decent.
All in all it appears to be a good place to meet up after a long shop or before/after a movie. We would definitely go there again.
On a scale of "80th and Ivy" to 10, 10 being exceptional, I would give this establishment a solid 7.

I had the French dip, and with sandwiches, burgers and mains you get to choose not one but two side dishes. This proved a difficult task. I eventually decided on the quinoa salad, that one was a shoe-in. For the second, I had the mixed greens, which I actually preferred between the two. The menu is great, they had many, many options that I would have liked to try. The service was great, easy location for after shopping. Yes, indeed, I will be back, next time I will bring hubby.
