Prices are a bit much, but the beer is fairly-priced. Just don't sit in the back at the restaurant, because they give you the full-priced fancy menu, and you can't order the standard pub fare.

Great atmosphere, but you should show up early (like say, up to an hour) to get a seat. It's fairly popular among the white-collar crowd who want to catch the game before heading home from work.

Haven't purchased there, but I imagine in the $8-12 range for a plate of 'em.

The wings are about $10 for a plate (about a pound, I guess). They're pretty good, but not worth going in for. They also have these mini onion snacks which have a bit of a bite and are pretty tasty. You get a lot of them for about $6-7.

Great place to watch a game, particularly if you're on the main floor. The screens are fantastic.

What Flames Central is missing is an area for games, though - the Big Buck Hunter and Golden Tee consoles would go over well, methinks.

I like the Pasta. A bit expensive for a smallish portion, but pretty tasty and portion size is better when controlled anyways! lol


I think prices are pretty good considering by the nature of fans sitting for the entire game.

They only get one set of food orders per average seat. You are paying a small premium to sit there for 3 hours and enjoying the game IMHO!

I should add that the servers are attractive.

I've always wondered this about Flames central fo home games so i'll ask, do they have Peter Maher or do they have the tv commentators going on also do they put it Beesly to say who scored off of the Fan 960? Cause as you know when listening to home games on the radio you can hear Beez.
