205 3 Ave Bay 5, Cochrane, AB T4C 1Z6, Canada
Such a great sports bar, the food punches way above what you would generally come to expect from the genre. Arguably the best pizza in town, coldest beers at reasonable prices and topped off with exceptional service staff you will likely not leave disappointed
Food is really good at this place in the atmosphere is awesome, but the staff is pretty rude. We couldn’t get service. We couldn’t even get a drink and we sat there for over 15 minutes and then the staff argued with us when we got up when we’re leaving.. that was the second time First time we had to go to the bar and get our own drinks. Never got the chance to eat this time.
I was there Friday night and it was extremely busy, everyone did great considering the situation and appreciate them letting me know the long wait times. Love their pizza and staff!
We love the pizza here! Best everever. We always order the ducks special. It's thick and full of cheesy goodness!
Good place to spend time. You can watch your favorite sports while enjoying your meal. The atmosphere is friendly, and the staff is helpful. Delicious pizza and a great variety of drinks.
It’s a good place with tasty food. And if you love watching the sport- go ahead! This one is for you! There also is a patio, where not so loud and just a good place for chatting with friends. Food was great. And on Tuesdays you can order a special meal- wings and pizza with beer! All other days also have their own specials.
The crab and shrimp melt was pretty good. Would have to say the crab tasted more like fish than crab…unsure if it was truly crab. The cheese balls were gooey and delicious. Hubby loved the burger. Fries were like McDonald’s fries. Seat yourself and there a few casino machines. Alright!
This place was recently suggested to me when I was going through town, and I'm really glad that I had time to stop in for lunch! The fun, cool vibe is only enhanced by the great, friendly service and delicious food! I look forward to coming back in the summer to enjoy the patio.
Advertised open to 2 am and basically said too bad we re closed at 12:15 am
The pizza at Ducks was recommended. It did not disappoint. I wish we lived closer.
Service is always weird here. Went for happy hour and confirmed prices beforehand but was charged full prices for all of our drinks. Asked about it when we got our bill and our server stated that the Pinot Grigio house wine is more expensive than the Chardonnay house wine? False advertising.
AMAZING FOOD... AMAZING SERVICE... AMAZING ATMOSPHERE!!!!! Kyle is one of the best tenders weve met!!!! Definately recommend this place!!!!
This is the best pizza in the world.
Ordered a pizza (dine in). Waited an hour and it never arrived. The order was never put in. Asked to speak to a manager - they never arrived. What a joke. Run by clowns.
Ordered over an hour, waited for food never got it, Maria did not give a crap what was going on, was told too bad this is how long the wait is an hour after and was told it was going to be even longer. Over an hour later no food, had to leave. What kind of establishment is this. I called to speak to someone there was no manager or supervisor on duty, come on now. Ridiculous. You can tell they don t care and could care less we were entertaining out of city guests who were very unhappy. Great job guys, way to drop the ball ever way possible. Update, when I called last night to talk to the manager or anyone who was management last night I was told no one was there and John would call me. Sophia called me today said John is not available ever and she was the best we were going to get. She also told me that there was management there last night and John the owner was there in the Kitchener so I was lied to on the phone. When she said too bad about the service oh well my husband said that not only were we lied to it sounds like management is mismanaged she started to yell at him. What is going on at this establishment? I have no words for this type of treatment.
Waiting more than an hour for food, told they didn t put the order in. Was charged for drinks and we left. What a joke. At least Pizza Hut gets you your food on time. Food
waited over an hour and a half for a burger and nachos.
Very nice sports bar! Staff is really nice and focused on providing a good service
Solid food, classic aesthetic. Pizza is great, takes me back.
Great pizza, good selection on the beer list
Our first visit was not great. It was quite busy and so loud that we struggled to have a conversation. The food was mediocre at best. They had a decent drink selection and the staff were very good. Also no shortage of tvs. Seems like a decent place to drink and watch sports, otherwise not impressive.
Ducks is a regular stop. Pizza and wing nights are great. Service is always friendly and prompt. Great place to watch the game or fights.
We ordered way too much food, but all of it was good. Pizza was on point! Service was quick.
Good food, good prices ! The servers are all super awesome. Only complaint is that they arent open until their posted times. Its always a gamble if they are open if you want a late night drink.
First time here we tried the calamari and potstickers. Both were tasty..but just a bit greasy. Service was great. Our waitress was friendly. We sat on the patio as we had our dog. We were acknowledged promptly and our puppy was looked after with some fresh water . Would definitely try this place again.
Pure trash. Food tastes freezer burned. Bartender made wrong drinks but wouldnt correct them when it was pointed out Place needs a proper cleaning Food : 1/5 |
Amazing experience at ducks last night, Service was amazing!! food was good, I ordered a pizza the crust was nice and fluffy toppings where good cheese was perfectly cooked and the bartender was friendly over all recommend ducks to my friends
It was ok, but $12 for a ceasar salad that looked like it should have just been a side is completely mental.
Great little bar, pizza was good, drinks were good
Its a loud place, but the food is great.
Warm beer, cold waitresses, and damn good pizza
Great business and good place to work too
If you like extra salty food and you enjoy the cigarette smoke blowing your way as smokers loiter in between the entrance and the patio then this is the place for you!
Best pizza in Cochrane and the beer is always cold! Great friendly staff.
Pizza is outstanding, service is friendly, a bit louder than I like, but I like silence, so take that with a grain of salt, lol
Great steak sandwich. Would go back
Excellent place to eat. Fair pricing, good service, great food. Always have a good deal on a special worth trying out
One of my favorite places. Best pizza in town!
Order one of the daily specials.
Some nights are very good some a bit average.
Best pizza around . Great people and service Food
Ive been to Ducks many times over the years. I went for lunch with some colleagues, we shared a couple pizzas. The service can be hit and miss but Ive never had a bad pizza. Thick with toppings and the crust is nice, youd expect it to be a bit soggy from the stack of toppings but it is done well.
I came here for a late lunch with my wife on a very busy day. Seat yourself so we did and and a server (I never did ask her name) came and found us very quickly. We order drinks, then ordered food and everything came to us very quickly and our server was very kind. I found the slouvaki to be tasty and my wife and I found that the meals are very good value for dollar. Two tasty large mains one app and a beer came to under 60$. We both left very satisfied and I think we will be coming back in the future. The decor was a little bit dated but overall the whole experience was great. Soccer fans, rodeo watchers, bikers and gamblers. Reasonably priced menu with lots of selection, neat atmosphere and the most immaculate mens washroom Ive ever seen in such an establishment. Fun for the whole family of legal drinking aged folks.
Excellent pizza. Not crazy about no free drink refills.
It is Saturday, July 13. I just left Ducks On The Roof in Cochrane Alberta. I m extremely unhappy with the disrespect that I received from the bartender. When I got there they didn t have the beer I wanted so I ordered Guinness. The Guinness came in a Guinness glass, but it was extremely under-poured. (Guinness has the little harp on the glass, and my understanding is it is supposed to be filled to the top of the harp.) The head was quite a bit larger than that, almost going all the way down to the bottom of the harp. I sent it back. It was refilled, and it came back to me filled to the proper level. After that, I ordered a second Guinness and this time it did not come in a Guinness glass, but in a strangely shaped glass with another name etched into the side (Strongbow I think). The head on this was (again) extremely large - it was another under-pour. I sucked it up and later ordered a third, but it also came in a non-Guinness glass with a huge head. At that point, it was obvious to me that the bartender was telling me FU - they were going to under pour, and I should just live with it. It was extremely disrespectful and I do not appreciate it at all. I was not interested in any kind of confrontation with the bartender so I paid my bill, and left. I have been a regular customer of Ducks for more than 10 years. With the exception of this bartender, the staff have always been very friendly and respectful toward, me. Unfortunately it was not the first instance of this kind of behaviour from that bartender. At this point in time, they have probably lost me as a future customer, which is a shame, because I really liked Duck s.
Would give this place zero if I could, family run place that doesnt allow minors, but nothing on the website mentioned that.
The food was soo amazing. They literally have everything. And we ordered so much food and it was all amazing. We attended as a group of work colleagues during a conference. Highly recommend!
What a nice neighborhood sports bar. Great atmosphere lots of seating. Clean facilities. This was a mid-afternoon wings, fries, & beer visit. Kid-friendliness: It is a liquor bar. No place for kids. But that is OK!
We were getting some takeout for my daughter s 18th birthday. While we were waiting we sat and had some nachos. The waitress Heather was awesome- very friendly and even brought my daughter a complimentary drink after we told her it was her 18th! Food was great and portions were substantial. Overall, a great experience for both of us.
Great food and friendly service! Prices were reasonable too. Nice place for a bite and a drink Food
A good place to have a beer and watch the game. Service was friendly and attentive. Atmosphere was a good lively sports bar. Food was ok. Fairly standard pub fare done reasonably well.
Amazing Pizza!
We love the food and the server Rayanne and bar guy Kyle
Thank you, Rayanne, for your exceptional service and treating us so very extra special! I needed a straw for my water so you kindly and seamlessly consolidated 2 straws to make it long enough. The pizzas were both amazing and to be honest the best we have had in years. When I asked about it you excitedly told me everything is made in house, the sauce, the cheese, everything was amazing exceptional taste; out of this world fantastic. We unequivocally fully recommend you for your excellent service! We additionally recommend this unquestionably impressive eatery!
Had some pizza and a few drinks. Service was excellent and so was the pizza. The place had lots of tvs with sports on. Was really good enjoyed going there.
Delicious pizza!
Watched UFC with lots of TVs depending on where you sit. Good service with regular pub food.
Great place for a night of sports or gambling, I hoped in for lunch, the service was quick, the prices were great, and the food was fantastic. Would go again.
Absolutely love this pub! Frankie is an absolute GEM! The food, the service, & the atmosphere is phenomenal! Such a great Friday night venue!
Just moved here from Calgary and I cannot recommend this pub enough! Service is stellar! 10/10! Love this place! If you can sit in Frankie s section, she will make sure your service is the best always with a smile. Frankie, thank you for making my time here in Cochrane AMAZING!
Go to pizza in Cochrane, love it! Always good when ordered and will continue to support. Now I want pizza have a great day!
Service needs work but good food
I love the variety of food on the menu and the great specials they offer daily. Love the flavors of the lasagna. They really care about offering affordability to there customers. Staff was very attentive and friendly.
Amazing food , great pricing ... I would eat here everyday if I could ... My family has tried the pizza, pasta, chicken strips and fries, Greek salad and the burgers and there has been not one complaint ever on anything ... Highly recommend everyone to try this place out
Excellent food! Great prices! Friendly staff!
Great traditional atmosphere, nice selection of food on the menu beyond typical pub fare. But pizza and wings are the best!
Great pizza and a fun place. Good staff
First time here. The atmosphere was ok, pretty dead for a Saturday. We sat at the bar and was greeted promptly. I asked for an Apple Martini, I was told they didn t have what s needed to make one. I said ok no worries I ll have a Disaronno Sour..here s where the trouble starts. The bartender didn t know what sweet & sour mix was, I had to explain it to her. Then she told me they don t make fancy drinks I nearly fell off my seat, I couldn t believe she said that. They have an arsenal of spirits behind the bar to make a variety of cocktails! So I just opted for a double Disaronno on the rocks. My boyfriend ordered an Old Fashioned..what he received was the most ridiculous thing we ve ever seen! There was a huge ice block in the glass that s not even touching the liquid! There s a toothpick sticking out of the glass with a cherry on it. PITIFUL. We left after that. I m not sure what the requirements are in order to be behind the bar at this establishment, but it s clear they need to revamp it.
rating: . As reviewed in our local community paper, The Cochrane Post: Ducks on the Roof won their category in our 2023 annual Reader s Choice Awards for BEST PIZZA, and they won by a mile with over 50% of the vote. What an excellent excuse to order pizza, it s for work ... a review for the a paper ... I had to order a large pizza to do the review, for work ... WOW. So good, I can see why they won their category. I called in my order for pick up and they requested 25 minutes. Drive right up, lots of parking + bike rack. Fast. Fresh. Super friendly staff. Family run. GREAT PIZZA. Very welcoming when you come in and I went up to the bar to pick up my order. Nice and super friendly staff and so was the manager. Quite full for a Wednesday lunch, it s a large space with bistro tables, booths, lots of windows, welcoming and comfortable. My pizza was excellent - piping hot, crust was crispy and chewy at the same time, not too thick, light and not too heavy. Nice blend of cheeses right to the edge and tasty, slightly spicy tomato sauce and just the right amount of fresh toppings including nice thick slices of fresh tomatoes just the right amount of toppings & sauce because you can pick it up without everything sliding off. Very good!
Best pizza in town great service and a fun atmosphere
Best pizza
It was great. Great service and atmosphere Wheelchair accessibility: Awesome Food : 5/5 |
First timers and was not disappointed, service is amazing and the food!! Wow, so good. Love everything about this place!! New place to call home... Lol
Had the crab shrimp melt with low spice caesar...omg, so good! First time and this place did not disappoint... well be back! Earned every !
Bartender guy is creepy. Pizza was alright, but a little pricey.
Good food and good service
Best and fastest service, always good consistent food, they could upgrade some TVs to bigger ones in some shops but great placeto watch sports
Best Greek salad for miles. Try the steak sandwich or the lasagna. Amazing! Friendly service and a super nice smile every time.
Probably the best burgers in town right now, and the best value. Sadly Original Joes has switched to really cheap, skinny, and disgustingly greasy patties. Fortunately, The burgers here are better and cheaper. I dont know how the rest of the menu is but, I at least am interested in finding out.
Great biker stop
The pizza was great but dont go here if you are looking for GF. The staff have no idea what GF is and are not at all interested in catering to it. Having some GF pizza crusts in the freezer is a pretty simple thing. I get that youll never be able to guarantee 100% GF but having a few options isnt hard.
Great
Wow what great service and food! Pizza was deadly.
pizza is amazing wine was great! service excellent! $35 for pizza wine and pop.... yaaaassssss no wonder they been in business since the 90s!
Good food, good venue. It s great for what it is, and doesn t pretend to be something that it isn t. Well done, ownership and management.
Enjoyed meal with friends, great quality steak and perfect lunchtime portions. I was taken aback when the womens bathroom was blatantly showing anti vaccine stickers. I would prefer to not be political when going out for a meal. These are personal decisions.
Really good steak sandwiches, tasty and tender - great value. Pizza is excellent, generous toppings and tasty sauce. Beer is cold, service is good, atmosphere is sports bar...whats not to like :) Food : 5/5
Great portions of food for a good price Awesome, friendly service too! There is VLTS here to play as well. Drinks werent over priced either. Definitely recommend stopping here for whatever occasion you going out for. Food
Good food, fair prices, and excellent liver and onions. Food
Delicious in-house sauces, fresh veggies and full flavours! Will definitely be back to sample more of the menu!
Spacious open pub with live entertainment and nice pub atmosphere. Wings were good. Pizza was good. Would go back again.
Very poor service. We have lived in Cochrane for over 10 years and almost every time we go (about every month or 2) it seems like the serving staff would rather be doing anything else besides customer service. Excellent pizza but not worth the terrible service - slow and rude almost every time including tonight.
Nice place! We had a very large group here for a banquet. The girls were definitely overwhelmed with how many people we had, and understandably so. The pizza was awesome but the wings and deep-fried foods werent the best, unfortunately. It is a very nice atmosphere but with limited parking. Lots of tvs, live saxophone entertainment. We must have had about 70 people taking up the one side, definitely over crowded, I would recommend booking the whole venue for a crowd that large. To be fair, I think we underestimated how many we would have, which put the staff in a tough spot. I do recommend the establishment though, its a great little spot to wet your whistle and the girls are very sweet! Grab a pizza while your there! Parking: Small lot, probably sufficient day to day. For larger events, definitely need to use street parking and unoccupied local lots. Wheelchair accessibility: Standard width doors but all single level, slightly elevated side walk at the front but lots of room once inside! Im not wheelchair bound but my best friend is and I would suggest to him to go here for ease of access as he could park within feet of the door and have minimal obstruction to gain access. As for the bathrooms, I didnt use them abd cant comment on that.
The food is great here. The calamari is the best Ive ever had. The pizza is awesome and the staff are great. Parking: Depends on how busy they are on weather the parking is good or not.
Very poor service tonight. Our waitress was non receptive to questions about the menu and what food specials they had. Every time I tried to order food she just ignored me and ran off. Super poor service at Ducks!
The service has been terrible, but last time it was so bad that this past weekend we picked somewhere else instead. We have been customers for over 10 years, but there are many choices in Cochrane now that we are going to try in the future.
Great pizza, cool sports bar vibe, bit of a gem.
Great place to stop Im for a pint and a bite. Appys were awesome
Pizza was good, have had other items and food is consistent. Cold beer, good place for sporting events. Variety of seating options. High tables, booths, low tables. There are vlt machines. Parking: It is a busy business area.
Good place to watch sports but the food was not great. And service was rude. Not sure if I would go back Food
Nice place to have a beer in the afternoon. Service was good
Perfect
The friendliest staff in town! All age groups represented, lots of food and drink choices. This place is an institution among locals. Come I and see why! Recommended dishes Pizza, Steak Sandwich
The waitress there named Jenna was so rude to us that we decided to leave after one drink. What an unbelievably uncomfortable experience. I believe the owners should look at re-training her. She will ruin customer experiences and cost them business. I would recommend you make your way to the Shire Pub in Cochrane for the best fish and chips and friendly service.
A Sports Pub with a Patio, inside Dart Boards, VLT machines, and plenty of seating.
Delicious! Highly recommend.
I was not really impressed. The waitress was dismissive and the spaghetti was nothing to write home about.
Great local pub to visit ... Great service
Always a great place to meet friends. I believe our waitress name was Jenna, talk about going above and beyond and remaining professional while having to deal with some of the other patrons. Definitely be back.
Always a good time, great food + prices!
This is a great local sports bar and restaurant in Cochrane. I cant say enough good things about the service staff and the food.
So hey. We had a wicked server. Trish! For our first time here we felt like royalty. Trish recommended the pizza and anything Greek on the menu. She nailed it. Highly recommend this place. Although there are no actual ducks on the roof, the service food and atmosphere are definitely the highlight! We will definitely be back. Absolutely fabulous!
Always a fun lace to go when we want to get out of the city and closer than q lot of places in the city. Highly recommend the pizza, it is yummy.
Saw this on Google decided to check it out..great atmosphere. Server was great and courteous. Club sandwich was amazing!! Best Ive had in a while..got slot machines too which was cool
Great food
Upon arrival at Cochrane, we googled Ducks on the Roof and entered the establishment. It was great. Good food and courteous staff.
This is my favourite place in Cochrane to get pizza from! You can order it to pick up and have a wine or beer while you wait. If you love sports it is a great place to catch the game at.
Great pizza.
The wings were tiny, overcooked and there were 10 in my takeout order, not 12, as advertised online in the Takeout menu. Disappointing to say the least.
We stop by Ducks after golf. Great service.
The fish and chips were terrible. They were served with a vegetable medley that looked like it was from someone elses previous order. The serving of chips was smaller than a childs plate. Will not recommend or go again.
Ducks has been around for many years, and the pizza and wings have been pretty consistent. We attended an event here and it worked out well for the large groups. Our service was spectacular, but the service is not consistent as others had long waits for orders, drinks, and overall service.
We got take out pizza for the family twice while on vacation here, and they were some of the best pizza we ve had! The crust is perfect, and they don t skimp on toppings, will definitely eat here when visiting again! The sweet potato fries were also delicious! They did forget the Greek salad with our meal, but we didn t mind
Best pizza and meals in town, great friendly staff and super fast service. Give it a try and youll become a regular customer.
The service was great. We went for lunch.
Great place
i didnt see any ducks on the roof
Great place for expensive ( but tasty) pizza and gambling addicts!
Great food, so many good choices. Amazing service by Jenn who always takes great care of us. Dog friendly patio during the summer.. great stop :)
The owner is a stand up man who always makes it an inviting place to be. The bartender aint half bad either. Do yourself a favor and grab a pizza
I love the food, I love the servers and bartenders, but from what I can hear from the seating area and the bar the kitchen staff is extremely impatient with the front staff. As a customer I suggest that management take care of this because it does not seem like a secure work environment for the servers and bartenders, and when it comes to being professional as a work place the kitchen staff making a fuss in front of their own customers is not the way to go. I still love ducks on the roof but I do believe that the kitchen staff should learn to be much more patient with their fellow coworkers.
Service was horrible!!
Fun environment. Good nachos.
Fun and friendly staff. And if you are sitting at the bar as a first timer, you almost feel like you walked onto the set of cheers. The food is above pub grub And Ill let you in on a secret. This place actually layers the nachos!
Good local pub. Friendly staff. Lots of variety on the menu and food is always good.
Great food and excellent service!!!
Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access 1 handicapped spot
Very disappointed, I was in a competition with my grandmother with comparing pizzas from Manitoba to Alberta. Having this pizza in the competition set the bar very low. I ordered an all meat pizza, it was very bland. I couldn t tell the difference from eating the pizza and eating air. Tasteless is their priority here.I want my money back so I can get an actual pizza in Manitoba.
Great food. Good service. Very good pizza
Awful food, even the potato skins were half raw. Several people at the table, super easy going people, only 2 liked what they got.
Steak and egg were top quality. Highly recommend.
I find it very dirty inside the restaurant, I think they need to step up the cleaning! However their pizza is delicious!! Also the servers are great.
Great classic bar food with a Greek flare. Best pizza in town!! Tuesdays are pizza and wing night. An order of wings and a personal 2 topper pizza for $15.99 Servers make an effort to remember your name and drink preference. I dont even need to order my first pint. I sit down, the pint is dropped in front of me with a menu as they say hello. That is a lost art in these days.
Fantastic service, and food!! Will definitely be going back!
Amazing food and great atmosphere. This is always a great time
Best pizza in town. Great service with a friendly smile.
Great atmosphere. Wonderful service, food delicious
Very nice place to enjoy the happy hour under the sun. Highly recommand this place !
Always great food and service.
Great little sports bar with a busy atmosphere. Plenty of screens to get your sports fix, or if VLT screens are your thing there are some of those too. The food is delicious and well prepared and I thoroughly enjoyed my coffee. There is an open airy feeling and is a great place to catch up with friends, or to grab a quick bite. I would definitely consider coming again.
Cool place. Good food and reasonable priced. Definitely going back.
Good pub grub
Food was excellant and enjoyed by all. We ate at the tables outside and enjoyed the beautiful weather.
The customer service whenever I call is rude. I get you re a pub- but try enhancing your customer service- it can make people feel like garbage when you treat them that way.
Arguably the best pizza in cochrane. Place is a bit dark, but all in all a pretty good place to grab a pint and have a slice.
Food is quite good, however on multiple occasions i have called to ask if a specific fight would be playing (boxing) and i was assured every time that it would be. Only to get there the night of and they are in fact not playing said fight. Multiple ruined experiences.
Food was good bartender was outstanding for service
Server was outstanding. Food was average at best....dry burger and medium steak was well done.
Ordered the Hawaiian Burger. Was disappointed to find that it was pineapple pieces and not a pineapple ring, makes for a very sloppy burger and there was no mozzarella. So if youre expecting there to be mozzarella youll have to order it separate as an extra. Fries are just OK. Everything was too salty. And I like salt.
Good pizza but what the hell is up with the children s paintings stuck to the side of the patio!? Gotta be the ugliest attempt of a Reno I ve ever seen
Friendly atmosphere, great service
Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere!!! Food was great and service was amazing!!!!!
Great pizza.
Great place to stop after being out west
