Annabelle's Kitchen Downtown

It's a pretty good bet that Calgarians living 100 years ago would never have imagined a bustling Italian restaurant taking up residence in the historic saddlery on Stephen Avenue Walk. Today, that beautifully restored space is home to Annabelle's Kitchen, an intimate, female-owned neighbourhood restaurant offering a warm, casual atmosphere in the heart of downtown Calgary. Led by Chef Christopher Hyde, the kitchen celebrates Italian-inspired cuisine with a menu featuring fresh, house-made pasta, antipasti, pizza, and thoughtfully prepared entrées, all crafted with local quality ingredients. With seating for 70 guests, Annabelle's Kitchen is the perfect spot for everything from a casual lunch to an evening out. Complementing the menu is an extensive wine selection, creative cocktails, non-alcoholic beverages, and local craft beers. Join them for happy hour, Monday to Friday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., featuring spritz and pizza. On weekends, explore Bar Annabelle next door, an intimate Japanese whisky bar offering a selection of tapas. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or settling in for the evening, the team at Annabelle's Kitchen looks forward to welcoming you
