A Premier Chop House and Whisky Bar. After serving exceptional cuisine in Calgary for over three decades, we're excited to open in Whitefish.

Michael and Carol Buchanan opened this Calgary neighbourhood icon in 1988, creating a family-run, West Coast-style restaurant true to chophouse tradition. Buchanan's proudly serves Alberta beef, house-made pastas, soups, and sauces. Following classic chophouse heritage, they offer fresh fish, Cuts on the Bone, a world-class wine list, and one of Canada's most extensive whisky selections to complete your dining experience. Family-owned and operated since day one—and that will never change.
