Duggan’s Boundary Irish Pub
Duggan’s Boundary Irish Pub, formerly known as Devaney’s Irish Pub, opened in May 2008 in the former Frog & Nightgown Pub. The name hails from pioneer J.J. Duggan, one of the City of Strathcona’s first mayors. 91 St which runs beside the pub, was the boundary line for the former city. Duggan’s Boundary has become the gathering place for the local residents, young and old alike. Guests will feel as though they are truly in Ireland, with its warm woods, cozy booths, and outstanding Irish fare. If the weather permits, guests can also enjoy the newly renovated patio at the back of the pub.

“Very cute and cozy pub. I had an enjoyable experience here as I visited with friends after an event. I tried a few appetizers and they were fine/good. The place was very lively with live music. My only slight criticism would be that it took awhile to get refills. Otherwise, I definitely would recommend this establishment!” – Natasha Myette

Brewsters Oliver Square
Brewsters believe that every beer should share a story and every story should share a beer. For over 25 years, they have been refining the art of beer in Western Canada. Its founder Michael Lanigan started Brewsters in 1989, way before small-batch brewing was the trend it is today. Now, as a second-generation family business, their batches aren’t as small as they once were. They are one of Alberta’s longest-standing local breweries, with 9 restaurants across the province.
