Lost something at the taproom or on the patio? Our Gnomies will do their best to find it!

Items lost by patrons and found by staff stay at the taproom for two weeks, before being taken to charity. Please call (403.764.2653) or visit the taproom to check if we had any luck in finding your item!

Outside food is welcome!

Due to allowing doggos and other pets inside, we aren't allowed to show-off our chef skills and cook any food. We do have great snacks for you to try! Also...

WE'RE IN INGLEWOOD! A community known for a diverse food scene with unique bites. Grab a meal from one of our neighbours and eat it at our taproom!

Feel free to also order delivery directly to our taproom, whether you use the restaurant's service, or SkipTheDishes, DoorDash and UberEats!

Home-cooked meals are also encouraged, let's see what you got!

All pets are welcome to our taproom! It's rare you'll visit and not find any #dogsofcoldgarden hanging around, but we also have people bring in cats, snakes, hamsters, and more!

Pet Policy:

  • We love your pet as much as you do! Seriously. We have treats, water bowls, poop bags, and any other necessity to make your pet comfortable!

  • Our #dogsofcoldgarden wall is full of polaroids of all our taproom pets, we'd love to snap a picture of yours!

  • Couches are for human butts only, unless you set a waterproof barrier down for your non-human best friend!

  • If you have trained your pet to use a toilet, let us know so we can film it! If not, when duty calls please take them to Gopher Park across the street!

  • We want to hear all the gossip going on in the taproom, so please keep loud barking, yapping, meowing or hissing to a minimal.

  • We are proud to be a safe environment for first-time animal visitors! If your pet hasn't been in a taproom before, we recommend coming during non-peak hours, either in the morning or early afternoon!

Our taproom is not only all-ages for your furry friends, but also for humans! Youngsters are allowed to chill with their juice during all open hours!

We are proud to be an accessible place for all! This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Accessible Entry

  • Accessible Seating Area (With Low Modular Seating)

  • Accessible Washrooms (With Grab Bars)

  • Gender Neutral Washrooms

  • Baby Change Table in each Washroom

  • Breastfeeding Safe Space

  • Bevies for Everyone (Alc & Non-Alc Options)

  • Family Friendly

Please email drink@coldgarden.ca if you have any ideas to make Cold Garden even more comfortable and accessible to all 🙂

Whether winter, spring, summer, or fall, our patio is open for one and all! In summer, it’s a patio party every day of the week, come on down for fun in the sun!

Our name might be “Cold Garden”, but we keep the patio as warm as possible in the winter! Sit in a Gnome Dome under the stars, or gather around one of our many fire pits where our Gnomies keep the fire lit with delicious smelling wood! We also have living-room sections, where a Grandma-sofa will keep you comfortable, and heaters above your head keep you toasty!
