  • Since the 80's have eaten at nearly every Earls in Western Canada, my son did a chef apprenticeship with Earls here in Calgary, had always loved there food and ambience. Then I got older and the volume of the music became a problem for me, I adjusted, I made sure I went at quieter times when they were not as busy, this didn't help much as we would sit down with maybe only a dozen tables occupied in the whole restaurant / bar and the music would be just blaring. Suffered this a few times and realized, in my opinion, the loudness seemed to be for the staffs pleasure, not the patrons. This Earls demographics are dominated by 40's thru 60's and 70's age groups and I know many who have stopped going because of the noisiness created by the loud music. The louder the music the louder people need to talk and the louder the atmosphere becomes. Many of us stopped going to Ricky's for breakfast also after they instigated a franchise wide policy of louder music to attract a younger demographic. Our age group was 80% of their business, we have the time and the money, we left them in droves also. There are many smaller independent's that get it and appreciate our business. We miss Earls food and staff but just can't put up with the noise. (UPDATE) Felt a little bad with my review so gave it another try after over a year of absence, could hear the music before we opened the door (no, the outside speakers weren't on), purposely sat in the dining room and not the lounge, we had brunch, food was good and a great waiter. It was pretty busy, very noisy but we couldn't hear any music. It quietened down as the patrons thinned out. Tipped good and was glad we gave it another shot. They said they are aware of the noise frustrations and are concerned about it.
