An exclusive look inside Calgary’s best cocktail bar
It’s no secret that Proof is one of Calgary’s best. With a commitment to classic cocktail culture, old-fashioned service, and unpretentious vibes, we can’t get enough of this place. Oh, and did we mention that it’s world renowned for its drink quality?
Yep, Proof doesn’t mess around. They’ve got one of Canada’s most impressive back bars with over 350 individual spirits, so if you’re looking for something specific or something way outside your comfort zone, we would bet that they’ve got it.

Food and drink menus here are constantly changing with the best and freshest ingredients and ideas.
From Braised Beef Poutine to Vegan Dumplings to Scotch Eggs, there’s no shortage of eats to choose from– and obviously the drinks never stop, either.
If you’re ready for spring, we definitely recommend trying bartender Chad Lawrence’s newest concoction, The Parrot Club.
This thing’s got Appleton VX, Strega, coffee, acidified pineapple, ginger, pear, Zero Issue Brewing’s Nemesis IPA and a healthy dash of Peychauds… and it’s ridiculously delicious, soo.
It’s a no reso game here, which means 1st come, 1st served reigns supreme. Pop over with your crew for after work drinks or a late night snack– but whatever you do, don’t miss out on trying some of Canada’s best sips in the game.
