O2’s Tap House & Grill Jasper Ave

This location always seems like it could be busier — it’s a huge bar — but every time I go it’s half full. The service is not awful, but not stellar either. It’s a mid-​range kind of place.
The food on the menu is basic bar food; fries, wings, burgers, nachos. Most things are solid, but I’m pretty sure a lot of the food is out of a kit, or not prepared fresh. If you’re looking for something delicious and well made, try another restaurant.

I’ve never been a fan of O2’s chains. When this location changed from the Black Sheep to the chain I figured it was just the same as the others. We have been here a few times recently as a group to hangout and play some pool. I have been so impressed! First with the staff. The waitresses we have had have been so wonderful. Very kind and personable with our group and fun to talk to. They offered suggestions on the menu and made sure we were happy at all times. The bartender greets me every time I come in with a friendly hello even if he’s busy. Second, the food. I have been to other locations and the food has never been good. Here I have had the wings, tunnel fries and sausage sliders. All have been amazing! A decent selection of beers to choose from and the cocktails always good. Third and last the place itself. It’s always clean. I always had my doubts given the clientele I use to see outside this location but inside is neat and clean that I was so very wrong to assume. The only thing that has been a downer was the bouncer who is always there. Mostly he keeps to himself but one night closing was coming and our quiet group were finishing up our drinks when he came over trying to be intimidating and flexing his muscles telling us we had 10 minutes to get out and call cabs. It wasn’t a great last impression given we weren’t a roudy group and were just visiting. I get that you want to close down on time but he wasn’t the best choice to deliver it in my opinion. But thank you to the wonderful ladies who work there!

Best chicken wings I ever had !!!
Recommend them !!!
Went there for the first time and had so much fun
The server was friendly and the atmosphere was awesome not to mention the food!
Would go back anytime !!!

Stopped by for 35c wings and Caesars. I would recommended the dill pickle Caesar with dill pickle vodka. It was quite delicious! Their wings were OK — not bad but definitely not the best I’ve had. The waitress was friendly and accommodating. Truthfully it was mostly the atmosphere I didn’t really love. It jus kind of basic and cold feeling. If you like watching sports though they do have a LOT of tv’s for your viewing pleasure.

My friends and I came here for Paintnite and unfortunately the paintnite people screwed up and we had to go to another location In a hurry. The manager Ryan was SUCH A doll and apologized profusely, even though he had absolutely nothing to do with the mistake. He bought our drinks and gave us water bottles. He went above and beyond what needed to be done for a couple of angry women. We will definitely be back just from that simple act of exceptional customer service.

I found the staff very friendly. I was a designated driver and the bartender gave me a couple of diet cokes on the house. The music was good (Hip Hop during the time I was there). Big screen TVs had a variety of games on for people to watch.
I will come back again soon.

We call this «nouveau greasy spoon»…great place if drunk or hungover. Unnecessarily surly staff.

Same old, same old. It has a new name, but nothing has really changed. Since being the Stonehouse for a very long time, it seems that every couple of years this bar changes hands and gets rebranded. Other than having a huge bocce ball court at one point, which is now long gone, it has been very much the same. Average beer selection, average amount of TVs, a patio on Jasper Ave. Nothing wrong with it, but nothing special about it.

We came for Paint Nite but arrived just after 5 to have dinner. They had a few booths available so we ate there before heading to the back for painting.
It was a Sunday night so they had $ 5 pizza special for a 2 topper individual size. Most of us had pizza but friends also ordered nachos. The pizza was cheesy and had adequate amount of toppings. I like the thick crust and it wasn’t too greasy. I had a few nachos so only ate half my pizza. With a pop, my bill came to $ 8. We took our drinks to the back to enjoy while painting.
The waitress was attentive to bring us a refill on our drinks without having to ask and taking away our plates. Food was good pub food and they have a decent menu. Washroom in the front (by the 3 VLTs) was clean.
Would eat here again if I was coming for Paint Nite.

I cannot comment on the food at O2’s, as I had purposely eaten supper at home before attending ‘Paint Nite on June 29^th at 7pm. And I only had one alcoholic drink– a screwdriver, which the friendly waitress served in a short glass. Cost was $ 6.50 which I think is a little steep than if it was served in a TALL glass. After that I only had a glass of water.
The service by this same waitress was good; she was attentive to the other people in the paint nite class in the back of O2’s, and she directed me to the back where Paint Nite was held after I had walked in. However, drinking just what I had had was enough when it was over and I had to use the washroom didn’t impress me much. The one stall was locked, and the other stall had a broken latch on it, so I couldn’t close the door tight if anyone happened to walk in! Unless some idiot drunken woman had broken it, unbeknownst to the manager. That’s sure not a very big washroom. And only two stalls??!
I like too that they have a pinball machine in the back (Star Trek) as I enjoy playing pinball, but I didn’t get a chance to try it out.

Ok place to drink, food is disgusting! Shame taking prime real estate in Edmonton downtown including the one on Whyte!

Great Service! Great food specials all week with a kitchen open late every night! Finally a sports bar downtown worth watching games at… lots of good TV’s. Plus they have games in the back room… Golden Tee, Buck Hunter, Bubble Hockey… and shuffleboard, pinball, and ping pong on the way! A much needed improvement to a nice looking room! Welcome to the neighborhood.

So I have finally gone to the new O2’s that opened a couple of months ago on 111^st and Jasper. This location has seen more turnover in the last few years than a fast food chain next to a high school. It’s last incarnation, The Black Sheep, closed unexpectedly and reopened as O2’s in less than a month. The inside looks exactly the same.
I had a bacon cheese burger with fries. The cheese was processed, which I would have liked to see described on the menu as I’m not into processed cheese, and the fries were bland and almost sweet in a weird way. The burger itself was fine but tasted like it came out of a box. Our server was nice and relatively on top of things. There is absolutely nothing special about this place, but if you’re hungry and it’s close it won’t kill you.
