The Blackfoot Diner or Truckstop (can't remember what it's called). It's located right by the old Molson Canadian brewery. They have some old jukeboxes at all the tables and retro stuff. They also have a train that goes around the ceiling. Here's a review I found...

Blackfoot Diner, 1840 9 Ave. S.E. - Calgary's best "cultural" spot for breakfast since 1956! For those of you who remember a little sitcom called "Alice" the Blackfoot Diner is like stepping on to the set. The ladies serving you even wear pink jumpsuits and every jukebox has Johnny Cash tunes. I cannot tell you how good their homemade pies are or how greasy their giant burgers are but I can tell you that I have yet to add a quantity of syrup that cannot be sucked up by their pancakes....and I love every morsel of them. Look, I love the Avenue Diner (my favorite breakfast spot) but if I am hungover, feeling nasty and not wanting to shower before entering a public place there is no other place I'd rather get my groove back. How can you beat a place with a toy train rolling around the ceiling? Oh, and those pies do look DAMN good...even if Flo isn't the one serving you! Ph: Do they have one?
