Wow crazy impressed The wings are massive and still Real prices lots of beer options tons of tvs. Very old school pub around the corner feel !! Dianna was so sweet and on the ball despite the place being slammed. Truly loved that the sound wasn't insanely loud you could hear and still say something to your table .

Great food and great service but the patio is terrible. Someone in your group will have to stare into the sun for an hour. There isn't proper shade. They should hand out free welders masks.

Into the depths of St. Albert awaits the best wings this side of Alberta. The famed pub explorer Jay the Wooler discovered this place back in the day. Excellent beer and wings. The wings have a nice crispiness to them and a full flavor. Great wings specials as well. The only critique is the sauced wings should have more sauce. So check this place out. You may even get to meet Jay the Wooler and his merry friends like Nate at Eight and Aaron the Adventurer.

Great wings but with a few issues. Each time I come they always seem to have half the tables reserved. On more than one occasion those reserved tables for ( 4:30 ) do not show till 5:30 and later. They should be First come first served! I have seen people walk out do to this.

We really enjoyed ourselves tonight, we had the wings which were so good. We had the Broccoli bites yummy. I had the French dip and Pountine homemade fries were so good. Hubby had the baggers and mash very good. The pool table was great 2 bucks a game coin operated. But is in really good shape. Would definitely go again.

Good standard pub food with great service! It has a slightly aged crowd and the staff are very friendly and helpful! If you intend on going on their wings day, you better be early because at 16:01h, there isn't an empty chair in the joint. We had the chicken club and Philly cheese steak sandwiches, and both were delicious!

Its a little old and run down, but you cant beat the pricing for drinks. The food menu hasnt changed in over 20 years, but theres a pretty good selection on it and the prices are reasonable on everything but the appys. (9 wings shouldnt cost $16) Quality of service is mixed. Some servers are on top of things all the time while others can leave you waiting for 10 minutes or more for service. Overall, its a good place to meet up with friends and have a good time.

This is a mainstay of St. Albert. Ive been coming here since 2014, and the quality has been maintained throughout. Its a classic pub with everything a person needs. They have a large open dining/drinking area, VLTs, pool tables, darts, televisions, and attentive staff who dont keep you waiting. The Serving counter stretches out into the dining area, resembling a tower somewhat, and it is great because you can get order quickly without having to line up behind others. I recommend the wings, but youll be fine no matter what food you order, to be honest. It really is an all-around great place. Crown & Tower has outlasted every other bar in St. Albert, more or less, and I expect that theyll be there for the foreseeable future. This place gets packed on the weekends with folks of all ages, it really gives off a community vibe.

Something is getting wrong with this location which is too bad. The food quality is getting worse and quantity doesn t match with the prices It is not normal to (for our group) to have to return two meals (first one because the changes asked were no done properly and the second one was simply not edible). Hopefully this situation will improve.

Fun atmosphere for a neighbourhood pub. We had excellent attentive service from our server,Tabitha; who was personable and efficient. One of our entrees (fish & chips) wasnt made as described in the menu which is why I selected it. It was neither tempura or beer batter, but more like the cook used frozen highliner from the grocery store! Tabitha acknowledged this and took it off our bill. Thats good customer service.

Been attending the crown for over 29 years. Its always a great place to catch up with friends, coworkers, and family for a social drink. Staff is always warm and welcoming, great customer service. Couple things need to change. 12 draft heads and NO craft beers at all. So many competitors carry 5-6+ craft selections. My only other critique is breaded chicken wings. Not a fan. Gone are the days when the crown used to bring in fresh chicken wings. They used to be sooooo good. Best wings in St. Albert.

Would have been a great regular spot but the hours are inaccurate and you cant be sure if itll be open if you come after 10pm. Used the bathroom last visit and a super drunk bar patron was aggressive to another guy in the mens bathroom. Just started harassing this guy for no reason. I went out for a smoke, came back and a worker was talking to the guy that got yelled at. Didnt see him again but drunk guy was there when I left.

Was looking for a new venue to enjoy some wings and beer. Well I must say I ve found my new special place right here is St.Albert. The wings were delicious and the Bartender was very polite and extremely busy. We sat at the bar which turned out to be a bonus. As we enjoyed our beers and delicious un-breaded wings, we observed how efficient and smooth the staff interacted with each other.The place was packed as it was game night, but the staff worked like clock work. The bartender was amazing to watch, multi tasking tapping 2 beers at once very effective. We will certainly be back in the near future, did I say how delicious those wings were. And the high point the price is very reasonable, which warrants my return visits. Well done Crown & Tower...

What a happening place, where some other chain pubs seem less busy we barely found a place to sit, it had a great vibe . It won t win any interior design awards, but you go to visit with friends, not to marvel on architecture. Their food portions were generous, their beer prices reasonable, even had a beer special on wing night. Try that anywhere else. Server was amazing and she was busy, Looks like we found our new wing night and perhaps drop in location, hope we can get a table. Good job Crown and Tower.

One of the best pubs in St. Albert. They have excellent quality food for a neighborhood pub and easily the best prices on food in town. They have lots of appealing daily deals for food as well as drinks. The place has a cozy atmosphere and consistent service. A great place to be when its busy on a Friday or Saturday night. Itll be great when Covid is behind us and they can stay open late again. Love this place! Definitely recommend the Crown & Tower!

Before the recent COVID restrictions we were in the area and decided to get takeout from the Crown and Tower. I called in an order from the parking lot and was given a ready time. When I went in to pay and pickup the server was so helpful and friendly. I thought the pricing of the food was really good and the food was fairly typical pub food but we enjoyed it. The fries and onion rings tasted great however the burgers appeared to be cooked from frozen however if it was not then maybe they were a little over cooked, but either way we did enjoy the treat! Unfortunately it is temporarily closed however we will certain order again once it reopens. Thank you to the server (sorry I dont recall her name)... Really helpful and nice lady!!

As this is our neighbourhood pub, needless to say we have been going for drinks and food for some 20+ years. We always enjoyed the great service and ambiance but I must say that over the last few months, since reopening after Covid, the food is not up to the usual standard! We were there today, and again the Crown and Tower burger was small and did not have that grilled taste that we have enjoyed in the past, and the fries were soggy and greasy! Something has changed in the kitchen and not for the better! As usual the servers were fantastic!
