| - There are a few pubs closer to my place than 1600, but none of them can match the amazing selection of beers. All of my favorite UK beer is on tap which is rare in Calgary.
The food selection is above average for a pub and I have yet to be let down on an order. Can't really go wrong with the: greek ribs, wings, nachos, any of the burgers, or more nachos. The nachos are fantastic. I have also been in and enjoyed their weekend brunch too!
They have great specials too! Here take a look for yourself (Copy/Paste from interwebs):

If you have similar requirements of a 'neighborhood pub' as I do, this place is a lifesaver!
My only complaint is that they aren't busy enough on weekends, and seems to clear out around 11. I don't get it. Stay for another round people!
