For $18, there should be enough food for an adult. The waiter was not surprised at my disappointment and brought me back the menu. No thanks, I don't want to add another $18 tidbit of food.

"$68 for two people and we needed more food after. It's only vegetables. Why $18 for mushrooms + egg + potato? "

White Rose and Coal Shed will be closing shortly...our last day is Saturday the 16th. On behalf of the owners and staff, we would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you to all of our valued guests; we are so grateful and appreciative for all of the support. We hope to see you for one last visit before next Saturday...please reserve so we can be prepared! Thanks again, it has been a pleasure serving you.

It's a very difficult time to be a small business in Calgary, and ultimately in comes down to the fact that expenses are higher than revenues. We are a husband and wife ownership team and have few options available to us when ends don't meet.
