Alumni Sandwiches - Reserva de mesa

What a fantastic sandwich spot. I needed a quick and easy restaurant to watch the Celtics game so I came in to Alumni. I had no real expectations because I don't really care for sandwiches as much as others but maaaaannnnn. Alumni has mad me a believer. The cocktails were surprisingly some of the best I've had in Calgary. The Zombie Punch is the strongest drink they have on the menu apparently it was a cocktail lovers dream. The second it touched my lips I knew I was in for a treat. I ordered that and the Oaxaca old fashioned, both were delicious but the Zombie Punch was just perfect. I'll be back JUST for that. Yes the drinks were amazing, but the food was even better somehow. 1 thing I nee...

Never heard of Alumni Sandwich Liquor Bar before but we decided to give them a try for lunch. It's next door to Blanco Cantina. We dropped in on a Tuesday around 1:00pm). Our waitress was friendly and came by multiple times to refill our waters. Nice touch that the kitchen split our sandwiches when we told them that we were sharing. The menu is small with a dozen sandwiches along with a few snacks, salads, soups and one dessert apple pie). Seems like the hot chicken is their most popular; three options to choose how hot you want it quarter a drizzle), half or full). Parmesan fries $8.00) the parmesan sprinkled on top oddly clumped together and didn't stick to any fries. Decent but standard f...

Omg this place was so delicious. My boyfriend and I came at lunch time. Man oh man, what a busy time to go but it was absolutely worth the wait. We waiting for maybe 15-20 minutes for a seat. It was really really busy. We got seated ASAP. The waitress took our drink orders real quick and when she returned we gave her our orders. I got the Hot Chicken and my boyfriend got The Dagwood. Thankfully I looked up the photos before coming here and noticed how big their portions were. That's why we got the Parmesan Fries to share. It was huge! All our food was huge and filling. Absolutely worth the price. If you like spicy food I highly recommend the Hot Chicken. It wasn't crazy spicy like in Nashvil...

First off. How have I been sleeping on this gem? Went for supper with friends and chose to come here. So glad we did. Service is top notch, from being immediately greeted at the door, to being checked on multiple times (some people may not like this, but it makes or breaks an experience for me) and just overall friendliness. Total 10/10. Situated in the old Subway shop on 17th by Tompkins park, this place is understated in its ambiance without being overly fancy. Now. The food. I had the rosemary beef dip and charred broccoli. When I say I will eat this again, I am NOT kidding. Worth the wait and I will be back Reserva una mesa ahora

The photos don't capture the true essence of Alumni; it serves the best sandwiches I've ever had. The flavors are perfectly balanced, making each sandwich exquisite and incredibly tasty. They're quite large, so we chose not to order any sides, and we were glad we did. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was fun and casual, making it a great place to grab a meal. It truly satisfied our cravings, and we will definitely return.

I visited this restaurant late on a Friday night, just before closing, and they were extremely busy. However, I was very hungry after flying into Calgary that night. The staff member was kind enough to make an exception and take my order for one last meal. I tried the turkey brie sandwich, and it was delightful. After tasting it, I completely understand why this place is so popular and busy!

This was a total find. We don't give 5 stars often. We walked up and down 17th and finally decided on this place after literally sitting down at another. Well worth it. We loved the drinks and the sandwiches. The deviled eggs were okay. Service was awesome. Definitely check this place out when on holiday.

This place is always consistently delicious. Best spicy chicken sandwich around? I always get the quarter spice with salt and pepper fries. Highly recommend!!

The Hot Chicken Sandwich and Parm Fries consistently earn a perfect 10/10. The service is always excellent as well. This is a small but impressive restaurant.
