Dining: what is open, and until when

Six places to eat or drink, from a 200-seat family grill to a grab-and-go counter. The hotel's own pages do not always agree on closing times, so the table below shows the most specific figure and flags the conflicts.

The hotel's site lists different hours on different pages. The Wild Horse Pub is shown as 9:30 a.m.–2 a.m. daily on the dining overview, Sun–Thu until 2 a.m. and Fri–Sat until 3 a.m. on the pub's own page, and until 3 a.m. or 4 a.m. in the site footer. The Cactus Lounge closes at 9 p.m. Monday to Thursday on its own page and at midnight on the overview. Confirm on the day.

Pages for each venue

Room service

The hotel lists room service among its amenities. Hours and menu are not published. If you arrive late, ask at check-in rather than assume.

A note on drinks

Two of the six venues are bars, one sits on the casino floor and several of the hotel's promotions are built around beer brands and game-day drink specials. This guide does not repeat drink promotions. If you are driving on the next morning, Alberta's roads are long and its police run checkstops; plan accordingly.

Pulling in for a night? Ask the desk to check a room

Four fields are enough to start; the rest is optional. The desk checks availability and the current rate with the hotel's reservations or a booking partner and answers by email. This is a request, not a booking: no card details, nothing charged. If a request becomes a confirmed stay, the hotel or the booking partner pays this site a commission — how that works.

Request received. The desk answers by email, usually within one working day.
