What the data says

The Big Cheese Poutinerie is one of 130 takeaways we hold in Calgary, and one of 718 venues in the town overall. It sits about 1.4 km south-west of where Calgary's venues cluster most densely, so it is off the main run.

It is the only place in Calgary we have recorded as serving poutine.

There are 195 other venues within a kilometre — against a Calgary average of 158, so this is about typical density for the town. The three closest are BeaverTails (5 m), Clive Burger (7 m) and Analog Coffee (11 m).

Open monday to Wednesday 11am to 9pm, Thursday 11am to 11pm, Friday and Saturday 11am to 3.30am, Sunday 11am to 9pm. That is our reading of Su-We 11:00-21:00; Th 11:00-23:00; Fr-Sa 11:00-03:30, the opening-hours string recorded against it — hours change and the source is community-maintained, so treat it as a strong hint rather than a guarantee. Only 54% of venues in Calgary publish hours at all, so this one is better documented than most of the town.

Measured on recorded detail, The Big Cheese Poutinerie carries more attributes than 89% of the other venues mapped in Calgary. Outdoor seating and takeaway are noted; other attributes are simply unrecorded rather than known to be absent.

Within a short walk — call it 800 metres — you would pass 66 restaurants, 32 takeaways, 20 cafés and 8 bars. Nothing to stay in within that radius, so it is a destination rather than a hotel-adjacent stop.

The closest places to stay are Corporate Suites of Calgary (267 m), Best Western Plus (306 m) and ExecSuite - The Dahlsen Apartments (673 m).

Not recorded for The Big Cheese Poutinerie: step-free access, vegetarian options, gluten-free options and Wi-Fi — gaps in the open data rather than statements about the venue (why we say so). Its own site is the best place to confirm.
