   The food was good, although a tricky menu for a business lunch, particularly if there are only two people eating.

   I feel so spoiled and taken care of uppon every visit to pigeonhole at the core and I adore the staff at cafe next door as well, special shout out to Miss Robin and all the staff at pigeonhole. I honestly can't remember my servers name from last night but he was incredibly attentive but also gave me my space to relax and fully enjoy myself. Clearly a well run restaurant, and has quickly become my favourite little save heaven while out and about downtown for doc's appointment and what not. Thank youuu to all the staff. 💚💜 I was even just delighted to have such a comfort cozy table last night while the restaurant was slow. While Barbararella was packed 😆 I adore this place. My favorite cafe, the monkey bread 😍🥰 and the grapefruit brûlée are my absolute favouritest items. Brilliant chefs with extraordinary execution of technique. It is easily the highlight of my week to spend a few hours in your dining room. Thank you again. G

   Squash tartin was amazing. Shrimp cocktail was tasty and had enough prawns to be filling.

   Would not recommend, Calgary has much better options and I won’t be back. Thought I’d try this newer restaurant for lunch with a friend. Staff and ambiance was nice. The menu was odd with limited options. The food was significantly overpriced for what you get. I ordered a chicken sandwich expecting a handheld sandwich of some variation with a side. It was an open faced soggy piece of bread with round chicken medallions (not breast meat as had some fat) and gravy/peas. No sides included and definitely not worth $23! The breakfast sandwich looked and apparently tasted decent but for over $20 and no sides that’s far too expensive. If you’re going to spend that much I’d go to Major Tom or Barbarella as the food is much better. Definitely disappointed.

   Hey Robyn. I apologize about your experience at Pigeonhole today. This feedback serves as a trigger point for us to reevaluate our menu verbiage and pricing. It is also is clear to me that we failed in our communication with the quality check, after you had received the dish. Robyn, we hold ourselves to a high standard, and this goes a long way to us becoming the best version of Pigeonhole that we can possibly be. Please feel free to reach out to me at GJaques@pigeonholeyyc.ca if you have any other details of your experience you would like to discuss. Gabriel Jaques, GM
