Ranchman’s Cookhouse and Dancehall
Calgary’s original country bar and Calgary’s favorite Stampede hot spot, the Ranchman’s has been a Calgary landmark for over 47 years. They say a visit to Calgary isn’t complete without a visit to Ranchman’s.
Today the 1,000 seat dance hall hosts top country bands and preformers such as Dan + Shay, Gord Bamford, Aaron Goodvin and the list goes on. Every weekend they host the hottest up and coming local Calgary talent. Ranchman’s is known for the largest dance floor for kickin’ up your boots. A “museum of rodeo photographs and memorabilia” displays over 90 trophy saddles of Canadian and world champion pro rodeo cowboys. It’s where the REAL cowboys hang their hats! They are also the official hospitality location of the Canadian Professional Rodeo Association. The true western atmosphere helps explain why Ranchman’s is a Calgary classic! A real experience not to be misssed.
Inviting you to “Come for dinner – stay for the night” they have a new menu focusing on the classic cowboy meals. There’s always something yummy to be had. To start we suggest you try the Dry Garlic Ribs, a pound of savory bone-in pork mini ribs tossed in the light soya sauce and finished with kosher salt. Or try their Steak Sandwich cooked to yout liking, served with coleslaw and a choice of side.
For all your boot-scootin’ needs the Ranchman’s hosts live music Friday and Saturday nights. Take the eight second challenge on their famous Mechanical Bull. Be a part of the legend, and taste the Stampede all year round.
Ranchman’s. Forever Country!
