Soft opening of a Triple O in the southeast today. It’s on 52 ave at the Chevron gas bar. It’s nice to have a BC favourite locally after the closer of the White Spot on McCloud a few years ago.
PLEASE OPEN A WHITE SPOT IN NW CALGARY!!!
Reliable, great food, service and drinks.
I've been here many times and I will continue to come. The staff always greets you and seats you promptly. I've eaten the spaghetti and meatballs, the ribs, the fish and chips, the fish tacos, and ALWAYS zoo sticks for an appetizer.
All of these are great choices for your dinner tonight! But I'd like to highlight the BBQ ribs, these pork back ribs and so tender the bones slip right out of the meat. The meat is thickly covered in a tangy light BBQ sauce, that will leave you licking your fingers.
Went here with 5 people including 2 kids. Our server Lisa was excellent. The food took a while to come out, but was worth the wait. Everyone enjoyed their choice (beef dip, cheese steak, halibut burger, and beef burger). Drinks were refilled as needed. The price was reasonable ($78 total). I think at other comparable chain restaurants it would have cost more for no additional value. I wish there was White Spot in Saskatoon.
Came her for brunch around 11:30 am. For the price was really impressed, compared to places like perkins and rickies, it definitely is better and usually rickies is our spot. If your looking for good non greasy breakie check it out. You won't be disappointed. Service was great to and we only waited 10 mins for our food. Little hidden gem for a good breakfast.
Decent food, nice service. It isn't anything special but it's a nice place to have dinner with family. We had the fried three cheese ravioli, clam chowder, and PBJ Burger. Of the three plates, I enjoyed the fried ravioli the most. Crispy on the outside with warm cheese on the inside, what's not to like? I think the PBJ burger isn't for everyone. I can't say I enjoyed the combination of peanut butter and beef, but it was interesting. Just a warning that the clam chowder is Manhattan style, in case you're not a fan.

I treated a friend for lunch today, Sept. 24, 2015 and we decided to go to The White Spot on Barlow.
I had never been to 'the spot', but my friend has and she had remembered going to 'the spot' when she was back in high school and thought it would be nice to go back and she had said things have changed.
We were a bit pro-active and checked out the menu online last night and see what to order....better than looking at the menu and trying to decide what to order and waste the waitresses time- coming back every +10 min or so to see if we were ready to order.
When we went it- it was pretty open and bright. They had this memorizing wall when you enter- cascading water over 'The White Spot' name over the stone wall.
She had ordered the beef dip and I had the "The Spot’s 50/50™ 1/3 lb. patty made with Canadian beef & premium double-smoked bacon, caramelized onions, cheese & Dijon mayo. Served with creamy coleslaw & ‘endless’ signature fries" But I am picky- I opted out on the cheese and mayo. Had a side of gravy.
My friend, she had a good cup of coffee.
Our meals came out pretty quickly and hot. My friend commented her beef in the sandwich was quite good- nice and tender with no gristle, good amount and the au jus was pretty good too. She had also said the French fries were also good.
My version of "The Classic 50/50 burger" : beef patty and double-smoked bacon, caramelized onions, and served with creamy coleslaw & ‘endless’ fries.
That was a downside- we had forgotten it was 'endless fries' but the waitress never reminded us nor asked us if we wanted more fries. Not that we needed them, but they were quite good and could have anther round.
The saving grace was their warm apple pie with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream. Which to our surprise, another waitress brought out the dessert with 2 spoons. So I had to force my friend to take a couple of spoons full. She was impressed that they served it warm. Their apple pie was awesome and so was the ice cream.
I would go back, but a little bummed about no 'endless' fries.
A Very Good Breakfast. Had a very good Canada Day breakfast at this restaurant. A good assortment of dishes on the menu, and everyone was pleased with what they got: eggs every way, omelettes, etc. The spinach, portobello and feta omelette was succulent and delicious. The sausages perfectly cooked (nicely browned but not dried out). The tasty "smashbrown potatoes" were a hit with everyone.
Service was capable, friendly and unobtrusive, even though they seemed to be dealing with some holiday-related staffing issues.
The only negatives were environmental. The lighting in back of the restaurant where we were seated was bizarrely dark for a bright sunny day (like being in a late-night jazz club) and the piped-in music was much too loud and much too sprightly for the hour.
Mixed feelings. I have always really enjoyed the food, and management really went the extra mile for me once. I left my business cell at the White Spot in Edmonton, and they couriered it to the Calgary location for me right away at no expense. THAT has kept me going back, but the service has really been lacking. I tried to take my Dad there last week, and after standing at the front for over 5 minutes with nobody in sight my father actually started counting down aloud from 15, and insisted we leave once he reached zero. He did, and nobody made an effort whatsoever, so we left. I really want to keep supporting this place, but service issues need to be resolved.
Gluten-Free Friendly?. I had an AMAZING pasta dish, delicious, and was not cross contaminated!!!! I stressed that they be extra careful and I think it took a bit longer but we didn't mind AT ALL!!!! Lots of menu options, clean, nice bathroom, and great service. Even had a separate person bring out my food to make sure that my food didn't get contaminated on the carry out with the burgers and such my friends where having. The waitress said "fresh hands" are bringing out your meal and it came not long after the others were served. Word of mouth (from another person with dietary issues) brought me here and I will definitely be returning!!!!
Warm welcome. Friendly welcome and great food!
