Main Street Beer & BBQ - Airdrie

We were driving thru Red Deer and decided to stop for dinner. Excellent food, great staff. Left full and happy.

This has the look and appeal of a modern day bistro bar with lottsa seating and it looks like they have live music on the weekends. Great menu with interesting items like a never before seen entry “White bread $0”. Portions are a good size and served pub style. Still a restaurant needs to serve food that makes you want to come back and this one didn’t. The much advertised 14 hour slow bbq meals were tough and plain. They do have great bbq sauces at the table we won’t be back finding the generous portions too heavy for our liking.

The flavors infused into the authentic Texas-style BBQ meats at Main Street are incredible. Head chef Taylor coats the cuts of meat with custom-blended dry rubs and smokes them in-house over applewood for at least 12 hours, allowing the flavor to permeate throughout the entire cut. This also gives the chef full control over the BBQ process. I particularly enjoyed the turkey and pulled pork, which were not only flavorful but also moist and tender. The turkey was so tender it could be cut with a fork. The house-made pickles were a refreshing touch. We also tried two beer flights from their sister restaurant's microbrewery, Southblock BBQ in Calgary. The beers had unique and interesting flavors. I ordered the beet and macaroni side salads, both of which were well-executed. The restaurant offers more than just BBQ. My dining partners had the frito pie and tacos, which they said were excellent. The portions are generous and we had no room for dessert, but my daughter highly recommends the banana pudding. The service was professional and friendly.

Besides excellent customer service from Katus the chicken tacos were very good , loved the beef veggie soup and the vino . Thanks

We stop in here at least 3 times a month. They are very good at physical distancing the tables and sanitizing everything. The smoked chicken tacos are outstanding. Thanks to management your staff provides the best customer service on all of Airdrie
