About The Buckingham

The Buckingham AKA The Buck, Whyte Ave's most eclectic alternative nightspot. Music, live shows and all things ridiculous since June 2013.

The Buckingham Description

An alternative pub in the heart of bustling Whyte Avenue, The Buckingham is perfectly suited for those discontented with the standard bar scene. Since we are built on community values such as inclusion and anti-pretention, anybody with a good attitude will find this a desirable location (Except for Gidian who borrowed my GameBoy Colour in grade 4, then his family moved to Pittsburg and he never gave it back. You did that on purpose Gidian, you're banned, who's laughing now huh?! ")

Our kitchen is proud to be serving up a pub-fare themed menu that is all vegan, brought to you by our long haired bro-snakes from The Sailin' On Food Truck. Tight jams, no harsh tokes.

We are actively involved in Edmonton's music scene, and with that you can expect an atmosphere which reflects that. Be it through quality live shows, karaoke nights, or just a bustling weekend on the dance floor, we offer a bunch of stuff to entertain your lazy butts.

"Actual" customer testimonials! :

"That bar is really fun. "
-Simple Jon from Edson

"I love The Buckingham and I will gladly put my personal endorsement behind it! "
-Bill Murray (. . . a different Bill Murray, this guy has an afro and works as a barista at Second Cup)

"I'm not lending you any more money, stop calling me at work. "
-My Uncle Davey

"Who are you and how did you get in my living room?"

authentic & charming pub feel! we went on a mid Sunday afternoon, could have sat overlooking whyte ave, but we're happy to sit in the sunny South patio. service was terrific & friendly. wow the food! we were thrilled at the variety, portions and taste, all for reasonable prices! will definitely be back!

User

We celebrated a birthday last night and I’m so happy we chose this place. Incredible vegan bar style food, beers kept flowing and the server was wonderful. Look forward to coming here again

User

Was on the street, heard the rock, followed the rock! Great show from the Texas kings!

User

Vegan food so good that I always have to check that it doesn't contain real meat.. Dope music, best in Edmonton for dancing

User

The Buckingham is one of the best bars in Canada. Hands out. Rocking for Dollars. Amazing bands playing there. An incredible menu that just happens to be vegan. Good vibes. A mullet of patios (classy business tables in the front and party picnic tables in the back).

User

The Buck is a safe space for all people with the friendliest staff. They put on a great variety of shows from Open mic R4$ to Trivia to fully billed shows. I love this place. Best menu items IMO corn dog, donair, wings and poutine.

User

Read about the Buckingham serving same food as Sailin on food truck so had to try it. I can only say YUMMY! Better than the truck not just because you can sit and eat but also because they have beer!! I couldn't believe the bill when we got it..I thought they missed something because it was so inexpensive. We will definitely be back!

User

I love this place! The "chicken wings" are mindblowing, the French fries are some of the best, the chips and dips ���, and my go to is the buffalo "chicken" wrap!



My husband is vegan so it's great to have a place for cheating pub foods that he can enjoy as much as me!!!

User

I initially left a bad review because we were waiting outside for over half an hour for them to open. After I posted, Matt, the manager, comped us our next meal there, which more than made up for their mistake. I must say, we are regulars and all the other times we've been there have been no problem. The food is the main reason we come back. We are frequent Sunday brunchers - and who can resist the only place to get vegan pub food at 1am on a Saturday night? I only wish they would bring the avocado tacos back to their regular menu. Still a huge fan of the chick'n and waffles and the infamous wings.

User

I could eat the hot buffalo wings & the chili cheese fries non-stop!!! (Seriously!!) This restaurant is sooooo delicious, that even non-vegans don't realize the food is vegan until somebody actually tell them so. If you're in Edmonton, do yourself a favor & go to The Buckingham. You won't regret it!!

User

Great all vegan menu that was delicious! Location is perfect and the art is awesome! Recommended!

User

Fast service and great entertainment! I am not vegetarian by any means but everything I've tried from their menu is DELICIOUS!

Reasonably priced too, this is definitely a favourite place to go on Whyte Ave. <3

User

Amazing little place with a lot of atmosphere. I'm not even vegan and I love the grub here! Will definitely be back.



You gotta have their wings and a pint of Sea Change. So good!

User

A menu I can order anything off of? A menu full of yummy pub standards I haven't been able to order in years? Had the buffalo chicken wrap and was in absolute heaven. Adorable bar, amazing menu!

User

Just a great place to go with friends. Some one told me it the food items were all Vegan..???? Whooootttt.... I had the the cheese meatball soup..... It was great..... $4 pints of yelllowhead until 8pm....Live music was exceptional.

User

The food and drinks were good. I was a little disappointed that they put so much effort into a great menu but have one crappy choice of a house wine. People who like wine also like pubs. In any case, will return again.

User

Great staff and awesome pub grub! Only criticism is that they are frequently understaffed during the week and the weekend, so service is infrequent and food takes way too long.

User

Good music, good service, good food

User

The owner releases live bats into the restaurant periodically. His staff struggles to trap the flappy little bastards. Could be performance art. I like to think he has a video collection of people trying to catch bats. The food is also too moist.
