Spark Eatery — Restaurant in Calgary

Excellent quality and prices, great selection! My kids and I make an annual trip from Edmonton to Calgary to visit the zoo and the Telus Spark Centre. We visited the Social Eatery for lunch, and were very impressed with the superb menu selection and customer service. The cafeteria changed in March 2016 and is far superior to the previous one. The menu has a wide variety of delicious-sounding food to choose from, including great choices on the kids' menu, all for a much more reasonable price than the previous cafeteria. The cafeteria was spotless and there were staff members constantly picking up trays and cleaning tables. We chose our food items (kids' mac and cheese, kids' fries, kids' cheese bun beets/cottage cheese for me) and we even purchased a Gatorade and a lime pop simply because they looked delicious and the prices were extremely reasonable. Our meal was delivered to our table and the lady who delivered it was extremely personable and very nice. We enjoyed the bar stools and table, and the meal was lovely. We would not hesitate to recommend this cafeteria to anyone, but we weren't quite brave enough to try a little packet of dried crickets! We are quite particular when we eat out and I would return to this cafeteria anytime for a delicious meal or snack. We will return to Calgary next summer again and hope to enjoy another...

Very disappointed. Came for the chicken sandwich because the last time I had it, it was SO good. Everything in the past was made from scratch, the chicken was huge and juicy, topped with a delicious slaw, cilantro and sweet chilli sauce. It was incredible. So fresh. This time though, we got this dry, premade, horrible tasting chicken patty with little to no mayo and shredded romaine on a dry, slightly burnt bun. That’s it. I asked for a side of sweet chilli sauce to try to save the sandwich, but they didn’t even have any to offer. It was so sad. I wouldn’t go so far as to say inedible, but my expectations were high from the quality of the food in the past. Left with a bad taste in my mouth, literally and figuratively. Hopefully they can get back to the high quality they...

We haven’t been to Spark for a few years. But, they had a delicious chicken sandwich we thought about. Hand breaded breast, coleslaw, mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce. Just the best. It’s what you see in their picture on line. Today we finally went back in anticipation of this work of art. Such a major disappointment. A dry premade, formed chicken meat with shredded lettuce on a dry, slightly burned bun. No mayo, sweet chili sauce or coleslaw. Just dry meat that had a weird taste on a bun with lettuce. Very sad. Please bring back the original one you had and we’ll come back to the restaurant. Until then, no thanks....
