This place serves the coldest beers in the frostiest pints that I've had in a very long time. The fries are handcut in-house daily, and the burgers are well seasoned and have a great crust. The buns are fresh. This was a great hole in the wall restaurant, with great prices and I highly recommend you take a stop by for any meal they're open.

Stopped in for a quick bite to eat on Saturday, have eaten here once before and decided to try it again. Well first off the atmosphere is very cool for a pub/eatery. The staff were very friendly and out going above and beyond, was very pleased. I had the Crispy Chicken and Poutine and boy was it good the poutine has actual.cheese curds unlike some places that just use shredder cheese. The chicken burger was also yummy with a very crispy / crunchy coating. Highly recommended trying them out if you haven't. My fiance had the build your own hot dog which looked very good with the choice of the sweet toppings. The server that waited on us was great I didn't get a name but they had oh so blue hair. Thank you so much you made my day.

The Garage has been a good place to grab a burger in in Medicine Hat for over a decade. Went in for a quick lunch I had the steak sandwich special and my co-diner has the chicken burger and we split mozza sticks as an app - everything was good although my steak was a little grizzly - but it was fine, another good place for some pub food.

Wow is all I can say about my food today. I placed an online order when the food arrived it was so hot I had to let it cool to eat it. The chicken burger and chilli fries were really good. The mini doughnuts were unbelievable. They were really hot had the perfect amount of cinnamon and sugar. They are also far from the mini size I was expecting. Great value I highly recommend.

I had stayed one night in Medicine Hat and came to this place based on a referral and what a cool design for a pub and I had the Chili Dog 8 was pretty awesome and tasty, if I had more time...next time in my travels I will have to swing by again, but if anyone of you are travelling across Canada, there are tonnes of cool places to eat and this place is one of many cool and amazing spots, super down to earth and solid place. Great price too

Haven t been in the Garage in years. We used to live the vibrancy and uniqueness of the garage when it opened. Did it lose some of its panache somewhere along the line? Still full of kitschy fun stuff on the walls, this place was real busy in middle of afternoon. AKA: A bunch of daytime drinking going on. Happy holidays! Steak sandy was great, cooked medwell as requested. Usually get a heh bad taste in my mouth over other places famous steak sandwiches but The Garage showed me there was hope. Screwdrivers and Caesar s were $4 and $5 respectively, am arguable good buy for those. My buddy got the chicken sandwich. It looked awesome and no, was not cheap but remember what McDonald s forcibly charges you for their food delivered-about the same as two meals and drinks from the garage give it take. I don t think they e changed anything since they opened but maybe that s what makes them good. Moral of the review; daytime drinking is surprisingly economical in this city. Parking: Wide open parking. Just park in between the work trucks. Wheelchair accessibility: Very easy for wheelchairs, no angles or slopes.

We had lunch on a Sunday with only 2 other tables occupied. I had a cheese burger and fries @$13 and my wife had a chicken wrap priced similarly. Service was quick friendly and attentive, food delivered in a timely manner and it was freshly made. My French fries were hot and crispy and my wife had house made chips which were great. Not a 5 because the food was not outstanding just good. Would definitely recommend The Garage

Just ordered from them. Website menu that says it was updated 6 months ago was completely off. What was supposed to be $6.50 for grilled cheese sandwiches was $10 and what was supposed to be $12.50 was $14 for the mushroomswiss. Ended up being over $11.50 difference after ordering 3 mushroom swiss and 2 grilled cheese. Didnt even offer to price match. Didnt want to give the total on the phone before I came either. Never again.

Worst Service ever..spent 15-20 not being helped by a server then a lady who wasn t even actually working got us drinks and after another 10-15 the same lady ordered our food as the server couldn t be bothered to help us and the other lady got the cook to cook us what we wanted since we waited a while. And the only time the server acknowledged us when she brought us our food, 1 refill and us paying even then we had to wait to pay. She also walked by us plenty of times and did not acknowledge us at all. Don t recommend at all.

How did I forget to review this place? Well, simple, I was too busy enjoying the food. I started ordering from the Garage on Skip. I always wanted to go in but, being a minor before Skip was a thing, I couldnt. Eventually, I stopped getting the same food over and over and saw that this place was on Skip. This place captured my heart since that day. Now, up until somewhat recently I hadnt stepped inside, but one day, not being complacent with Skips delivery fees (maybe Ill review THEM one day), I decided to walk to the Garage Pub and Eatery. Now, let me just say, the owner KNOWS how to build atmosphere. It is indeed themed like an automotive garage. The exterior always had an eye-catching paint job, but the interior is truly something. It begins with entering, seeing the diamond-plated furnishings and the open-concept kitchen next to the high bar counter and you know youre in for some great pub food. That said, this is why I can only rate it four stars; See, I actually dont really like some of their stuff. The fries are hit or miss, and the burgers seem like theyre missing something. Yes, that extends to the poutines. By far the best items on the menu are the hot dogs (chili dogs AND chili cheese dogs included), the wings (boneless OR bone-in, go for the hottest mix you can think of and youll see why I fell in love), and the hubcaps (the hubcaps are basically in-house prepared thick-cut potato chips that are deep fried and seasoned with your choice of seasonings from salt and pepper to even garlic or cajun). They also sell cinnamon doughnuts, but they dont season them as much as they used to. Still good, but I wish they did a bit more of the cinnamon (perhaps it is possible to request it, but I havent tried... yet). Great selection of alcohols, and if you dont do alcohol, then you can do soda as an option, Pepsi products in this case (Im more of a Coca-Cola type myself but soda is soda in the end, so no-devil there). The TV inside plays sports channels. I think they change it to a different sport now and again, but it may depend. Ive seen at least football on display. So uh... How would I raise the rating? Well... I think the fries need to be figured out and the burgers revitalized. Something just seems bland about the burgers and the fries, like I said, are hit or miss. Sometimes they taste more or less overcooked, so that would be a good area of focus. Besides that, you still have a whole menu of great products, and delicious pub food in a spectacularly prepared restaurant. Definitely go inside if you havent yet! Its a blast here!
