We sat at the bar and had the best oysters I’ve ever had! The place was completely full on a Tuesday. I’d suggest making a reservation here. Thanks Matt for taking such great care of us. Absolute best experience.

About the restaurant

UNTITLED Champagne Lounge is the embodiment of sophistication, charm and style. A unique environment that is both amicable and unpredictable, providing excellent service with an unbiased spirit. With a vast selection of champagne and impressive array of sparkling wines, our team is equipped to match your taste and budget with the perfect bottle.
For those who prefer their drink on the rocks or two fingers high, UNTITLED has something special just for you: Artisanal Champagne-based cocktails. Using progressive techniques and carefully curated spirits, we’ve created a new beast that will rival even the tastiest old-fashioned.
While drinks are our focus, there’s something to be said for properly paired accompaniments. Our food menu accentuates the bubbly experience with bites as elegant as the champagnes, and perfectly matched. The Champagne world is your oyster. (And you can order those too.)
Welcome to our swanky hideaway. Lose yourself in our world of refinement

Brewery

Calgary

About the restaurant

We believe that a true craft brewery brings individuals together to enjoy some well-crafted beer, eat delicious food, celebrate life’s milestones and most importantly cherish one another’s company. 17th Avenue is iconic for just this reason; bringing people together in good times and bad.

In the early stages of our city, the area we all know as the Beltline was called the No.5 Trolley Line. It proudly carried all the hard working Calgarians that shaped our city into what it is today.

Our goal at Trolley 5 is to continue to bring the community together through great food, beer and friendship.

With beers like our Turntable Lager winning Best Lager/Pilsner at the Canadian Brewing Awards, there is lots to try in our Community Brewpub. We are dedicated to our craft and we can’t wait to share it.
