Point & Feather

Been coming here for over 10 years. Service is average. Food is a little above average. A regular neighborhood pub with a mixed crowd. Not many places you see 20 year olds and 70 year olds in the same pub! Lol
Other Unilocalers complain about service or other patrons-​then tell them when your there. Don’t hide behind a phone a complain.

To be fair, the burger met expectations and the beer menu was fine. The TV’s were all showing Monday Night Football, which is pretty much what I was hoping for when I decided to go there in the first place… HOWEVER, two dudes sat down to the left of me and one of them kicked off his shoes and propped his socked feet up on the chair. That… is disgusting. The waitress actually had to reach over dude’s rank, socked feet to retrieve his empty glasses and she never said a word. I’m not sure that’s even legal, but I was immediately disgusted and asked for my bill and left. Gimme a damn break. Who let’s people sit in their restaurant with their shoe-​less feet propped up on an empty chair?

These guys are great, especially mike the daytime bartender. A pub with continuous improvement in mind. Unfortunately they have fallen into the profit centre where volume is sacrificed. I totally miss the 20 oz pints and would happily pay more to not have a short beer.

Great ambience and service, the chicken wings are the right size and taste. This is the kind of place that you can see friends and families (with their adult children) get together for a chicken wings night. The place is clean and new. This is the favourite pub of many of my friends for a chicken wings night. Definitely recommend the place.

I’ve been here for an hour and I still haven’t gotten my food. How long does it take to deliver dry ribs when it’s their Thursday special?
Also, when we asked we got some serious attitude from the waitress.

Huge juicy burger with cheese and bacon and side of fries, good thing they provide napkins
Service is spotty and place (and clientele) very noisy with a pool room, VLTs and General mayhem

beer is okay (taps could be cleaned more reg… you can taste that they aren’t the cleanest), but overall like the place. My issue lies in a server last week during the Flames game. My friends and I had a $ 300 bill (6 of us), my one friend graciously offered to pay the bill and tipped her $ 100 before we left to go downtown. The server then went to the remaining party and told them he had only tipped her 10% and asked for more money (which she received). I was pretty taken back by this and will make an effort to avoid her section in my next visits.

I paid my first visit to the Point and Feather last night and I have to say I am honestly impressed with the experience I had. The bar is fairly large with plenty of space, my buddy and I found a nice table where we were able to socialize and watch the UFC fights without any interruptions from the other customers.
The drinks were reasonably priced and our server was very polite. I liked the warm atmosphere that the Point and Feather gave off, it was certainly a good place to have some drinks and escape from all the stress of everyday life.
A couple of issues I did have was the amount of time it took for our sever to get back to myself and my friend so we could order more rounds, the amount of time it took for our wings to arrive, and the noise level earlier in the night when we first arrived (then again it was UFC night so I can understand the ruckus!)
Overall I am very satisfied with my experience at the Point and Feather and look forwards to my next visit!

Good place. Wing night is worth the visit (Tuesday and Wednesday). Service is ok at best food slightly above average but priced above average. Stick to wing night (s).

A nice place to come to. Away from the hustle and bustle of downtown. I ordered for the lamb shank with great expectations. It was horrible!!! Don’t even think of ordering this item. Completely bland to taste, no proper colours on the plate. Just mashed potatoes and lamb with the brown sauce. Try something else! Service was okay. As mentioned a nice place to come and meet a few people through meetup!

Lousy food on the menu.

My parents went to this bar 30 years ago and from what they told me today this place hasn’t changed BUT that’s not a bad thing. The food is excellent. We had the fish and chips and the fish was huge and cooked perfectly. It wasn’t super noisy even though UFC was on. Mother staff was friendly and our waitress was always making sure we were ok for drinks. There are pool tables in the back, buck hunter and golden tee to the right. There are also VLT’s and I have to say its the first time I have been at a full bar and not one person was on them. I have been to this bar many times over the past 15 years and it didn’t disappoint me. I guess it never disappointed my parents either. The décor, tables and chairs are outdated which is why this place doesn’t get 5 stars. Maybe a little update would make the place even that much better!

Disappointed. It’s been a couple of years since I’ve been here, and I remember why I haven’t returned. The food was slow, hour and 20 and wasn’t appetizing. The boys and I are going to a different location next week for sure. Please work on the food, and the service, felt like we were ignored on purpose.
Cheers

My wife and I have been going to the Point and Feather for as long as we’ve lived in Oakridge — nearly 20 years. Unlike most bars and restaurants, it’s getting better every year. In fact, I now consider the Point and Feather an example of the neighbourhood pub at its best.
While they may not be the best bar/​restaurant in any single category, they are certainly above average across the board. Food, service, décor, atmosphere and price are all better than average. They seem have have found the answer to the most difficult question of all for bars of this type — how to find attractive staff who are willing to work hard and offer good service.
When we started going to the Point and Feather 20 years ago, food was their weakest category. At that time it ranged from bad to satisfactory. Now it ranges from satisfactory to excellent. Over that same period the service, décor and atmosphere all improved as well.
Two enthusiastic thumbs up to management for having a clear vision about what their business is and for training their staff to deliver on that vision. The Point and Feather is a southwest Calgary landmark but it’s also an asset to the community of Oakridge.

Great neighbourhood pub. Nice place to hang out with friends any time of the later afternoon or at night.
Large space with tables (indoor and out), TVs, and games. Haven’t ever seen it too busy.
The food and drinks are decent, but the menu isn’t that elaborate — so don’t be picky!
Servers are friendly and prices are decent.

This is a neat little neighbourhood place. I’d probably like it more if I actually lived in the neighbourhood. Otherwise its not exactly a destination. Average food (although their chips are tasty) and decent specials. Nothing dazzling but nothing to really complain about either. Service seemed to have some highs and lows over the course of the evening.
It IS a decent size so its good for mid sized groups or teams to hang out in. Patio is pretty small though. I was also surprised at the number of VLTs and how much they weren’t being used. They probably could do something cooler with that space. I did like that there were mixed types of seating though.
I’d go back if I was in the neighbourhood for other reasons but probably wouldn’t drive there by choice.

I’ve been here three times, and it’s been great every time!
the food is great, the grilled BBQ chicken burger is excellent! I got it with a side of lager chips (basically homemade potato chips) and I’ve been dreaming about them ever since. Their chicken wings are also good, but there might be a bit of a wait on Wednesdays.
It’s much nicer inside than i expected as well. It’s huge inside, with tons of seating, a nice area for pool tables, and a cozy little area in the back.
I’m excited to see what else the menu has to offer, as they’ve had a promising start!

My local friend thought this venue to be a dive, but I explained to him from my experience, it’s just kick back with no airs, just a rather neighborhoody place. Not sure of all the game tables, besides some of the machine games and pool tables (I didn’t notice foosball or other games, not that I was really looking). Pretty large place in comparison to some of the neighborhood spots I’ve been to various places I’ve lived. It’s cool that my friend has The Point & Feather in his neighborhood.
