Bridgeland is located northeast of Downtown Calgary, this highly walkable community has a quaint main street lined with fantastic cafés, diners, and specialty grocers (with locally sourced ingredients). If you’re drawn to an eclectic vibe, you’ll find it here. Often referred to as Little Italy for its Italian restaurants, the area is also teeming with local spots, offering a variety of cuisines and flavours, including the Blue Star Diner serving Canadian and global comfort fare — and IKUSA Izakaya & Tokyo Market — offering ramen, sushi, and grilled Japanese favourites. Close by is Bridgeland Distillery, craft makers of premium spirits and recently crowned Alberta Distillery of the Year. Bridgeland Riverside Farmers’ Market runs from June to October, and the area is also home to the famous Calgary Zoo, Canada’s second largest zoo. The best part? This neighbourhood has several new condo developments that attract many young urbanites and retirees.
