It’s a taste of downtown in the suburbs. The Crowfoot location has the same level of polish as the downtown version. The food and drink selection is above average for a pub and the Flames game day specials make for a reasonably priced wing night. There are plenty of TVs and the service has always been good when I’ve been there.

Normally I am a big fan of Hudson’s. The food is good and reasonably priced. Never had an issue with service at any location. That being said DON’T BOTHERCOMINGHEREON A SATURDAYNIGHT. I’m not sure if it’s just this location or all of them, but they’re trying to pretend they’re a nightclub on Saturdays. The music was insanely loud due to their«live dj» who played the worst music I’ve ever heard. Even yelling to my my friend sitting directly across from me, we could barely hear each other. Pretty frustrating experience considering they are well known as a good pub atmosphere.

I’ve been coming to this Hudson’s location since it opened and have loved every visit! I avoid busy nights(Wednesday, Friday and Saturday) just because I’m not a fan of crowds so I’m normally there on a Sunday for dinner. The prairie top sirloin steak dinner is absolutely delicious! Only once did it not come out prepared as I like it, but they were quick to get me a new meal and comp’d my dinner as well :) that wasn’t necessary but the great service and attitude I receive is what keeps me coming back! Keep up the great service and great food Hudson’s!

First thing’s first: don’t come here on a Sunday if you don’t like football. Period. No questions asked. My date and I made that mistake, walking in at about 2pm on a Sunday for a late lunch, and we could barely hear ourselves thing, let alone eachother talk, and it wasn’t even all that busy. It was ALL coming from the TVs playing the game. The service wasn’t terrible, but far less than stellar as every visit seemed to take at least twice as long as it should have for a place with this ammount of people. In fact, after dropping off the check, the server disappeared long enough for us to finish our drinks, get out jackets back on and sit for just short of 10 minutes waiting before we finally decided we had to get going to make the movie we were heading to and went up to the bar — only to have 2 bartenders completely ignore us. It wasn’t until a guy in a suit who’d come around twice to ask us how everything tasted(I assume he was a manager) finally saw us that we were able to pay and leave. The food was good… I’ve had much better, but for slightly higher-aiming pubfare(I had Bob & Doug’s Club and my date had the Avacado and Bacon Burger) it was acceptable. All in all it was okay for a lunch on a Sunday, but if I were in the area again I’d rather cross the street and head to The Keg or Tony Roma’s than come back.

Second time visiting this location and both times have been extremely disappointed by he quality of the pub food. Service overall is ok. As a sports venue it is a good place but the pod is definitely not a differentiator.

Finally a pub with a bit more class than… some of the others in the area(we all know where I’m talking about) I often visit Hudsons after a tough day at work, and the food NEVER dissapoints. The service is great as well! For sure worth checking out!

This was my first time coming here on a busy Friday night. The hostesses were very pleasant and helped us find a table(it was a half hour wait, but we seated ourselves at the bar and were promptly served beer and Strongbow ciders). Once we were at our table, we ordered five kinds of wings(crunchy peanut, honey garlic, salt and pepper, not so hot, whisky barbecue). Our server was friendly, efficient and amazing(she kept track of all our drink and food orders without writing anything down)! The wings were delicious, and so were the sweet potato fries. Chicken quesadillas were pretty ordinary. However, it was very noisy. The music was playing at full blast and you have to shout at each other to have a conversation. Parking is also a bit of a challenge. The best thing you can do is wait for someone to leave and just muscle in…

We used to hit up the Hudson’s downtown location quite often, but the novelty wore off after a while. When we heard this location was finely opened, we figured we’d try it out — it was close to home anyways! After our conference(it was a Wednesday) we thought we could have a wing night here. Parking is definitely a challenge — this location is at a strip mall with a small lot. We arrived around 4 so it wasn’t too bad. However when we left, the lot was packed and there were people parked at the Rona across the street and coming over(Guarantee that Rona’s «parking police» will be monitoring their lot around the clock the near future) Happy hour was on — YAYYYYYY, wing specials weren’t till 6 — BOOOOOOOOOO However, it was $ 4 off starters so we could still have some relatively cheap food. I went with the spicy sesame wings, my girlfriend got the sticky peanut and spicy wings and my boyfriend got the beef & cheddar mini burgers with a side of onion wings. Food came out quick! Our wings were coated nicely with sauce — not dumped on like other places. And the burger and onion rings looked tasty — and they were! We were never left empty handed with drinks and were checked on frequently even when the dinner rush started up. I think their food is decently priced and the quality of the food and service are awesome — I think our love affair with Hudson’s has been rekindled :)
