Re: New Meeting Location Thread

What about a place in Crowfoot Crossing? There's a lot of parking space there.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

What like Rip's or Brewsters? Mot of the places in Crowfoot are kind of … dull.

Also, Peter's is really quite far from the centre of the city.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

crowfoot is OK but not really central either

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

Really NOT central. Based off of the city's size ti's really that Marda Loop area which is the centre.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

What happened at BP's last time that was so horrible and warrants a change of venue?

Are there any Denny's that are central with decent parking?

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

I say keep the meet more central.

As far as that goes, i think we should do Chinook mall. Park in the rear behind the Food court, and then we could all head into the mall and everyone could get whatever they want and we could still sit together, only downside, is there are no drinks!

Plus if it rained/snowed we could just go one level below and be covered!

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

Guys BP's wouldn't serve us as a big group at our last meet and were not happy to have us in there with a big group. They would not split bills or do interact/visa etc. This is not just a matter of wanting a change of pace, we need somewhere that will be happy with us showing up with 20 or 30 people and be able to serve/accommodate us.

Moose's will be too busy when school is on in the spring and fall. If there is any kind of sporting event its packed with UofC kids.

I have gone to Moose's a LOT and it has OFTEN been packed/busy even on an ordinary night.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

I remember the the BMW club used to meet at the pub part of the Austrian Canadian club. They have a seperate room that can be used for groups if necessary. The food is good and a good price, although its mostly german/austrian type fair. From what I remember the parking is decent as well. Located just off deerfoot and 32nd ave ne, near the calgary sun building.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

Moxies is my vote... Food is way better the BP hot chicks working, they were nice to us... Parking was kinda wack but im sure we could figure something out...

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

I like cheap wing, cheap rib or cheap beer nights. If those are not valid, then = fail.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

Home depot big parking lot
Has a burger place
Bring your own beer and a plastic cup.
A lot of car clubs meet there on a weekly basis and come winter time find a new location.

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

moxies is OK with me aslong as parking is good.

guys the deal with restaurants we have to ensure

we talk with manager to let them know the deal
everyone PAY thier bills! bring cash if you can to make it easier
they have a big table/area for everone to hang out at.
good food and drinks at decent prices

Re: New Meeting Location Thread

I have found out Moxies Chinook closed because of the reno and will not be re-opening there but will be getting a new spot in Deerfoot Meadows which could be good for us, except will not be till next year.

I guess we will just have to try a few places out and see how it goes!

Re: New Meeting Location Thread
