LOCAL Public Eatery Sherwood in Sherwood Park

Had our work Christmas party at local this evening, and was left pretty disappointed with the service Hayley provided us with. One of our guests were unsatisfied with their nachos ordered, but she never came by to check on us after receiving our meals. We let her know at one point that our waters, and drinks had an off taste and she offered to replace it, and didn t really acknowledge our concern for how odd the drinks tasted and shrugged us off and said she was okay when we said she should consider checking the ice well.. Service overall was subpar and unfriendly.

Really enjoy coming to this location. The staff are amazing and so friendly! Food is always enjoyable.

Thanks for hosting the ARKK Christmas Party ! It was great !

Local Sherwood Park was Excellent on all aspects!

The service, atmosphere and food is completely dialed in.

This Local is simply the best... Whether its for lunch, or an ARKK Christmas party, they always deliver!

Exceptional service and great food! Highly recommend.

Fun joint. Lively. Food was very good

Kaitlyn was awesome!!! We had a huge group, myself and my husband have allergies, she handled everything with a professional, friendly, calm manner!!! Thank you very much Kaitlyn!! Merry Christmas! Dietary restrictions: Im highly allergic to shell fish, and husband is allergic to MSG. Kaitlyn made sure that what we were ordering was safe. Thank you Kaitlyn!!

Kaitlyn was awesome! Dietary restrictions: Gluten free with no problems Parking: Fine Kid-friendliness: Kids were fine

My wife and I have food allergies and Kaitlyn H was very diligent in making sure what we ordered was safe for us and the kitchen ensured the food was safe for us. The service Kaitlyn gave us was second to none; one the best servers weve ever had *anywhere*!

Brittany F & Dalila were awesome

Pretty good atmosphere and plenty of space for large groups. Servers were quick, efficient and friendly. I tried the spicy chicken burger with fries which was pretty good. The beer on tap was pretty good All around, nice place to hang out with friends.

The only thing that topped the food was the service. Sarah B was phenomenal!!!

Amazing service at local tonight!! Especially from our bartender Nick!! He was quick, attentive, and friendly. Thankyou for the experience! Definitely will be returning!

Blessdd

Our first Christmas Party at Local and it was phenomenal. Great Venue and food. All the waitresses were very nice and accommodating. Great all around.

We just had our Christmas party at Local. The manager Kaliegh helped make sure we had everything we needed and made sure we where well taken care of!

Busy location but the service and the food provided is up to mark. Great atmosphere. Food

Consistently good food at this location. Service was a little questionable last time I visited . So when you pay $50 for a breakfast burger, starter dish of curry and 2 coffee, the service needs to be great. Food

Fun place

Amazing food and the service is top notch

Nalia was great!!!!

This location is by far the best, I have tried almost everything on the menu, my go to dish is BBQ rice bowl but the last dish I had was the nachos, I would recommend both. From food to the ambiance, the vibe in this restaurant is friendly and welcoming. Randee is always working when I am in and she works hard to ensure everything is on point and running smoothly! Parking: Parking is great! Kid-friendliness: Kids always welcome!

Find me a better burger than the local burger. And while you re at it, add on a better waitress than Sarah B and Ava . I ll wait

Fantastic new cobbler! Always great service! Food : 5/5

Ive had some fantastic times at Local in Sherwood Park. Whether Im grabbing drinks with friends or meeting clients for a more casual business chat, this place never disappoints. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, and the service is always top-notch. Dustin Lazowski

Great experience as always. Our server, McKenna, did a fantastic job with a large group! Kid-friendliness: Had quite a few little ones in our group, and it went well. The staff sat us beside one of the shuffleboard tables which definitely helped.

Hosted our small company party here. Their event coordinator, Kaleigh, was so pleasant to work and communicate with; offering us a great set menu and so accommodating. Would highly recommend hosting your(smaller) company party here (:

Great service, great tasting house beer at a reasonable price.

Fantastic service and food!

Went out for lunch at local Sherwood Park. Had wonderful food and good service. Kaleigh and Nadia were very attentive and took care of us. Would recommend LOCAL Sherwood any day!

Busy day on Friday but Ashley took some time to chat with us when she was able. It is the personal touch and attention by all the staff that keeps us coming back.

Mattea is a great server!!

Mattea was an excellent server - attentive but not overbearing; she was friendly and provided options for my gluten-free brunch. The food was delicious!

Visited Local for the first time in awhile, and we had such a great experience I felt I had to review! Specifically because of our sever Lindsay, she was so nice, a lot of fun and incredibly quick with any ask the best service both my friend and I have had in forever! Will definitely be heading back very soon!

ARJUN, IS, THE BEST, SAT AT THE BAR AND HAD THE BEST TIME. HIS KNOWLEDGE OF THE FOOD & DRINK IS WILL CONE BACK. Food : 5/5 | Service

Local is really great. Food here is always surprisingly good, and the place is huge, so can usually accommodate larger groups (I have mainly been for breakfast or lunch, so unsure about dinner rushes). Staff is always pleasant, and there always seems to be enough staff which is nice.

Went in on Friday with the wife for a few beers and food, and just wanted to say thanks to Lindsay!! Never a dry drink or want for anything plus tasty food - great experience!

Had the chicken ceaser and it was amazing!! Our server Cassidy was outstanding and made our lunch even more enjoyable.

CASSIDY is AWESOME!!! She is very knowledgeable, friendly, and outgoing she is more than willing to help you take your order and give you suggestions. The washrooms are clean. The food is off the charts!! Super yummy The atmosphere is super friendly and down to earth. Wheelchair accessibility: Yes

Busy, very open concept, zero privacy to eat. It seems like great food, but dont go for a private or quite dinner! Lol Good for a group outing.

Great spot for Sunday football. Coming back this week.

Just wanted to give my server Bryanna, and then my bar tender Adri( aka Adrian) a shout out for their hospitality. Bryanna in particular went so far as to try to find the poppy I dropped while I was in a snacks and drinks! Lovely bit of hospitality across the board from all involved!

We went there for a team dinner. They everybody s dietary needs every table and player in a timely manner, and the food and atmosphere was delicious. Highly recommend.

Wait over an hour for a bill and they still asked us to leave our table before we could pay so someone else could come in and sit. We had to stand for another 20 minutes and still waited just to pay. Food is excellent but need better strategy for busy times

We came here Saturday evening for our team dinner, we had about 40 people, not only were they able to book us and set out tables, they gave us an awesome experience. McKenna and Ava were our servers. They were smooth, efficient, friendly and gave good recommendations on what to eat. The portion sizes were great, the food was hot, they had a good kids menu, it was sooooo delicious so thank you kitchen staff as well!! Such a great time!!! Thank you so much, Ive already recommended you to our family and friends out there

Met up with a couple of friends for a couple of drinks and some food. Only anticipated being there for an hour or so but ended up staying for 4 hours. Our server(forget her name), was lovely and attentive without being overbearing. The veggie burger here is absolutely amazing and the cider they have on top tastes like apple juice. We will be back.

Its definitely the place to go to in Sherwood Park if you want busy, fun atmosphere. Staff are true professionals (university students my guess). It does get quite loud at peak times, so it it may not be the place you want to go for a quiet visit. Overall, its always an adventure with good service, food and drinks

Hayley was an absolute gem!! It was my first time at local and I usually get a little overwhelmed with trying new places but she was so sweet and patient. She went above and beyond with her service!

Local has the best food ever and my server Hayley was absolutely amazing- she went above and beyond to keep us happy and our tummy s full !!! Would recommend to all my friends and family

Marina was very attentive to her table, and greeted ne within a minute of being sat, and even faster when my guest arrived 15 minutes later. Quality check on the drinks and meals was flawless, and overall experience was enhanced based on the service. Locations great and food came out exceptionally fast which is appreciated during a quick lunch break. We WILL be back.

Awesome job. Great place!

Had the best service

Brittany f was great

Sarah was exceptional and very prompt with her service!! The rest of the staff was timely with drink and food orders! Would highly recommend coming here anytime of the week! Food was incredible, shrimp tempura was had by 4 of 6 guests and highly recommended! Parking: Lots of space for big or small vehicles.

Great service and hospitality. Food was hot and flavorful. The indoor patio is something different than most places with a great view of the city skyline. Would definitely recommend as well as go again.

Strange lack of lighting in the dining room. Food was decent, nothing special

Great food and atmosphere. Thank you Mattea for the excellent service!

Great place good food.

The food was disappointing, the veggie burger bun was hard, and the pattie tasted like it was made over a week ago stale almond taste. Fish n chips, almost the whole plate was raw cabbage with an over squeezed amount of lime, no salt bland ,yuck. Fries were mediocre. Service was decent. Overrated place, unfortunately.

I am from the US and met some customers for lunch, Nicole was great and went above and beyond to make sure we were all taken care of.

Karlys service was as.close to perfect as you can get. On time and on point. I would give 6 stars if I could.

Ok...very noisy...

This is place has some extremely thought out recipes. Delicious!

Michelle is the best server we have a great time every Friday Parking: Lots of room just gets busy sometimes Food : 5/5 |

Underwhelming experience: ordered blackened chicken bowl and there were a couple of small chicken nuggets served over some rice and what was to be a curry sauce. Very small portions

Very good service, but the food was like most other eateries.

We Went there sunday for An afternoon Late lunch. I had the local burger and fries.It was great. The staff was Friendly and attentive. All our food was piping hot. I had the local lager and it was also very good. We would definitely go back. Food

Fantastic Service Fantastic Food Ashley is by far thee best server you have, very friendly and creates a great atmosphere with her guests. Food : 5/5

I had the best shrimp tacos Ive ever had since Vancouver Island. Marley our server was phenomenal. First time my son and I were here and were definitely coming back Food

I couldnt decide between meals and Nicole picked a winner for me. Blackened chicken curry bowl

Fantastic meal!! Thank you!!

Five stars for Nicole - for the life of me, I couldn t stay thirsty! Phenomenal service, excellent personality, all around great visit. Cheers!

My husband and I came in on a Tuesday night when the pince beef tacos and fish tacos were the daily specials. Daily specials can be a disappointment, but these were delicious! The beef tacos had very tender slices of beef, and the beer battered fish had a thin layer of batter over a nice fish. Our server, Sarah, was helpful and personable. The atmosphere on a cold night was warm and inviting. We had the nachos with the beef and guacamole addons a few days ago with drinks and thoroughly enjoyed that trip, too. Great place!

Cassidy is a wonderful person and an awesome server. She was friendly and happy and entertaining. The food was good too but Cassidy was the win for sure. Cassidy gets a raise. She was super patient as we sat for hours and didnt let her flip the table. I had a fav server here before but its definitely Cass now.

Cassidy was our server today. she s so cute, with a great personality and lovely smile. the brisket and bacon hash was so tasty. definitely worth coming from Vancouver Island for..

I have been to local several times with friends and family but the last few times have been disappointed so I don t think I will return. I ordered a mimosa and it was mostly ice and tasted very watered down, as did my husbands beermosa. It was like half water with a splash of beer and orange juice. The burger I ordered was wildly salty and hard to enjoy as the patty was also so dry. I find many of the waitresses we have had to be quite cold and you feel like you are inconveniencing them each time they come by. I completely understand it s hard to be bubbly all the time but a little friendliness goes a long way. Overall I like the ambiance of Local, they have a great indoor/outdoor patio but the food and service do need some improvement.

Awesome selection of drinks and food 100% recommend. Every time Ive been there Ive had hands down some of the best service Ive seen in this city and or surrounding areas!

Our food was excellent. Well, priced nice portions. Staff was friendly and attentive. Our waitress stayed on top of our drinks and cleared plates away even with her being busy.

This place has the most amazing service and food. Really enjoyed our visit.

Cool place to have a bite! Great food and awesome staff! Fast service! Sports lounge feel. We had brunch and it was great! Great location as well!

Great spot to grab some grub or a drink. Really great service and atmosphere inside

Nice place

Love It

Dietary restrictions: If youre on the FODMAP diet they do have garlic free options and gluten free as well. Food

HEADS UP! Local has BOGO Local burger long weekends. Its a play on words because its ONLY for the LOCAL burger, the cheapest house burger. Youd think the wait staff would make sure thats clarified when you go in for 2 burgers during such an event, but nope. Thats on you to figure out come bill time, or feel like a cheap @$$ asking for clarification prior. Burgers were good (RibEye is better), service was good despite the clear manipultion, I can assume thats part of the company plan. Annoyed, yes.......

Best spot in in the Park! Kayleigh was incredible as always

Kaleigh is awesome! Thanks for celebrating our afternoon.

Great food great service great waiters. Very polite.

Amazing place

Came in the other night and I have to say Kinle and Aleena hit it out of the park with their service, attentiveness and knowledge of both drinks and food and were able to strike up relatable and personable conversation. They were both kind to us and able to make us laugh throughout our night. It made for a very memorable night we won t forget very soon! Couldn t say anything better about them, some of the best bartenders we ve had!

Best place in the park for a pint and a meal - the atmosphere is amazing, further facilitated by the staff!! It would be better if one of the shuffleboard tables was replaced by a foos table though. Parking: Plenty of parking but can be busy during peak times. Wheelchair accessibility: Ground floor building with no steps at entrances.

We had Aleena and Megan as servers and they were fantastic! Took care of all our needs and more, fast service and great manners. The food was phenomenal and came out to us in a timely fashion. Both our servers were very personal and you could tell they cared about our table. Would recommend this place for anyone visiting Sherwood Park whether it s for business, pleasure or anything in between! The staff at Local Sherwood are the best and treat everyone with the highest respect and class!!

Kid-friendliness: Geared towards the mid 20s to 40s crowd, people come expecting not to see kids. Food

I was here last week with some people. Brought my drug habit too but it comes everywhere. Anyways we had to ask for a baby chair 4 times. I never got the water i asked for 3 times. Asked for a beer and got 2 of em. When i paid my $100 bill i overtipped and gave her $6 when i should have gave the wench $0... Especially after the face she made upon seeing the tip that she and her staff clearly didmt deserve. Got on that H train in the bathroom right after and i dont even remember leaving.

A few gluten free options

We always have such a great time at local. The service is amazing - Michelle always looks after us.

Just had lunch there great service good atmosphere our server Britney was a delight

Fantastic service and always a favourite place of mine to eat. Would highly recommend. Their GM guy was very kind and personable.

Loved the covered patio - with fire

Absolutely one of our favourite breakfast places in Sherwood Park. Our server Brittany was incredible she knew the products had lots of suggestions for us as well as very polite and seemed to care about her tables . Food came out quickly and always had refills of our drinks which we appreciate . Would highly recommend LOCAL Sherwood Park . Parking: Lots of room and offer handicap as well Kid-friendliness: They offer kids meals as well the servers are great with kids

The truffle cheese burger was amazing, perfect balance. Dalila gave fantastic service as well!

Dalila was very kind and quick with our order and drinks.

Food and drinks are always delicious! Michelle always makes the experience special and memorable. We always know that we will have a great time!

Food was great! Service amazing we love Dalila. ! Will be back. Parking: Sherwood park location parking is good. Food : 5/5 |

Love the local

Just wanted to give a shout out to our server Brittney. My siblings and I came to spend some time together after attending our brother s celebration of life. We were having an emotional conversation, and she didn t want to see us sad, so she made our visit special. It meant the world to us. Thank you so much.

Ava was an extremely good bartender! Very friendly and warm with a proficient knowledge of both the drink menu and food menu. I felt taken care of and made at home by her as she attentively served me and others in very quick fashion! Will definitely come back to Local!

We LOVE Local! Mgr. Kayleigh and the awesome staff, especially Ninna, Michelle, Ava and Brittany, always take great care of us when we stop in for a snack and a Trash Panda on the patio. And the new LPE League points are an excellent addition. Thanks Local and well see you soon!

This is the best place in Sherwood park. Michelle suggested to us that we order the burgers from here and boy was she right - they are delicious. We will be back to visit her and the food !

My husband and I are visiting from Kelowna and made a stop here to visit some friends. Michelle made us feel welcome from the moment we walked. She knew exactly what to suggest. Next time we are in town we will be back!

One of my favourite spots to eat in Sherwood Park! This past week Brittany served us and she crushed it.

Amazing food, drinks and the service was great.

Lexi made the experience enjoyable and felt valued as a customer. Please keep up the Great work! Food

Beautiful building, great products, excellent service. Joel, the butcher, is a prince.

Really love this establishment, Brittany F was an amazing server and made my experience unforgettable !

One of the best patios in Sherwood Park! Not only do they have a lot of space, they also have a hybrid patio where it can be covered completely or partially with the patio doors partly open. The food was pretty good, just wished the portions were better. They have happy hour for drinks and food which is nice for a bit of a discount on the usual food fair offered. The staff were super nice although at one point I think they forgot about my refill because it doesnt come for a long time. The entrance to the restaurant can be kind of obscure because of the placement of the building being in the corner of the lot. Big plus is that theyre open late!

After struggling to find a vendor for ribeye steaks for my husbands annual golf tournament, he decided to inquire at Loca. After meeting with Jared, he was convinced that Loca could deliver an outstanding product. He purchased one steak to try before placing the final order and found the steak was not only outstanding but flavourful and tender. He would highly recommend Loca as a quality butcher shop. He did end up ordering 12 ribeyes which were a huge hit with all of the golfers.

Katie A was my server and she was so wonderful and accommodating. 11/10 service from her

We had the blackened chicken burger, it was good! Great selection of draft beer as well

I always enjoy my local visits. Delicious. Entertaining about as professionally polite as one could ask for.... Oh ya. Its urban-chic! Food

I was going to take my family to eat here in July 29th, 2024 for my daughter s 26th birthday after reading some of the recent negative reviews. I ultimately decided to judge it honestly and took my family. My assessment is that the hostess was the main issue, when greeted at the door the hostess proceeded to sit us at a table that had not been wiped down, when she was asked about how the food was she stated that she couldn t give her opinion as she had not tried most of the food, and when asked what she would recommend she also couldn t recommend anything. When the hostess was advised that the table was dirty her demeanour was that it was an inconvenience and complained that the water was to hot on the cloth, after wiping the table she had left the table soaking wet. A first impression lasts and set the mood for the entire dinning experience, I would suggest this person be better trained to provide a better customer experience. The server was excellent, demeanour was on point and the server was attentive 7/10 times during the dining experience. I would also recommend replacing some of the manures, and menus cards as they seem well used and a little tattered. Again first impressions go a long way. The only other critique I would make is not to have groups of staff sitting around socializing, staff should appear busy and attentive to the customers and carrying out tasks. When staff are productive a business will save unnecessary expense from lack thereof. The food was adequate the blackened chicken sandwich was spot on I would recommend this food item, all three patrons had the same dish. The fries however could be improved however fries at any restaurant are always hot and miss. Thank you for the experience. I ve provided a 3/5 star rating as I see room for improvement in the delivery of service.

Terrific food, really good craft beer selection. This is a great spot for a group

Please put a bit less salt next time.

Great staff on Saturday night! Fast service great food!

Had a nice visit and a delicious appetizer

I walked into this business for the first time today as i have heard from my clients that this was a good place to have lunch. I wanted to get a sandwich from the sandwich making area. I saw an attended and decided to asked her recommendations for dairy free options as I am very dairy intolerant and suffers from IBS. She was not very helpful as a matter of fact she was not friendly at all, not a smile came from her. So then I decided to go to the eartery thinking that they might be able to make me a sandwich without out any dairy. They could not as everything was pre made. So I decided to order a bagle with slight butter which wont kill me but make me a bit uncomfortable. They didnt have butter for the bagle. So I ordered a bagle anyway. I would have preferred if the staff would have told me right away that most of their sandwiches contained dairy. I would not have wasted my lunch hr. Customer service needs some attention and they need to have gluten free and dairy free options. I do like the atmosphere. It is a nice break from the ordinary.

We craved fish and chips and read online the Local served it and was open.It was delicious and they even had a fresh chef made tartar sauce.Definitely worth a visit again.

Its alright

we sat at pur table for a good 10 minutes without water, or any service. Felt completely ignored the whole time since we werent drinking/making good money for the server. Basically the place is run by 21 y/o who just wanna serve shots. As well, my drink came with a long brown hair in it. Good food, bad environment. Will not be returning.

Parking: Lots of parking, but availability can be difficult depending on time of the day Food

Nice place to have couple of beers)

Great place to go and have some food and laughs. Food was good, service was on par, price was fair. Will go again for sure .

Food and service was amazing!

This great spot on the edge of Sherwood park is a hidden gem, you walk in expecting it to be loud and busy. But the spacious area allows for the noise to dissipate and creates an enjoyable experience.

Great food, cold drinks, great staff! Always nice to have local celebrity Ryder in the house as well. Waitress Sarah was great to deal with ! Food

Liked the location and atmosphere. Burger was awesome, beer as always. The service was a bit late but good enough.

This was my first time going to L oca since it opened in the park. I had some trouble with finding what I was looking for and one of the workers I think her name was chand was extremely helpful! The lady helped me find what I needed and was very friendly and chatty.

Very busy place but was very quick service

Beau, Juno & Matt 5 star! Pay these guys more please! They deserve the best! Big Up The Fellas

Matt, Juno, and Beau are the absolute best! I swear each of those guys could run their very own local and it would be electric

Beau, Juno and Matt are pure entertainment! With these three you can have fun that will make you fall off your chair. Stop by and enjoy a good beer and a better atmosphere!!

Kathy Elliott has the best samples and she is always smiling, knowledgable and friendly. Loca is truly a great shopping experience! I will go back again and again! The atmosphere is amazing! The food is fresh and displayed remarkably. Parking: Lots of parking available

Great experience! Awesome and knowledgeable staff, great menu, excellent choice of beer. Highly recommended. Parking: Busy and sprawling parking lot, so be patient but there are always spaces.

Great food and fast service.

Hailey was a fantastic cashier!

Upon entering the establishment the first thing I noticed was the eye-sore of kegs piled up immediately into the dinning room. Not sure if this was a brewery look theyre going for but it sure takes away from what a nice view it would be with just the windows displaying the tapped ones. Secondly, and most importantly.. the food. I have never tasted food that has had soo much salt in it. It was terrible. Took a taste of all items that were ordered by our table. From the chicken sandwich to a steak to the fries. Absolutely no flavour. Just salt. The gravy can be considered liquefied brown salt. Lastly upon inspection of the food prep area there is definitely a lack of cleanliness in the kitchen and this needs to addressed. The only thing enjoyable is the beer. Because its not made there. This place is terrible. Spend your money somewhere else.

Service was some of the best I ve experienced. Server came to me promptly and suggested some good items! I was surprised how much she knew about the salads, got me excited. Food was good and beers were cold. I think she said her name was Tru! Will be back again, thanks Tru

I bought a jar of Thai coconut chicken soup for $13.98 and was very disappointed to find only 2 small pieces of chicken in that big jar. The soup was more broth than anything. Way over priced for what I got and the taste was bitter. Not happy

I live in Vancouver, and this location is just as good. Nice spot to eat at, highly recommend

Parking is a nightmare with so many businesses in close proximity. My Step dad uses a walker and the tables are arranged in a way that complicates where he can walk and be seated. The staff is friendly but aloof when it comes to checking tables. Vegetarian options: Burger was ok but a bit dry Wheelchair accessibility: They should have handicap buttons for the washroom doors and more available seating.

Good place to chill and have a few drinks

Great service with above average pub food and adventurous finger food offerings. Excellent for getting together, large groups, little kids or just with buddies to watch games on the many screens featured in an industrial look setting. Theres also a patio when its nice weather. Service is above and beyond from what Ive seen in years in all the eateries of this type I visited in Alberta. Highly recommended visit if you are in the area. The Manager was commendable; when our group of 30 showed up with four more people, he quickly arranged a table at the end of the benches so everyone was seated together.
