Reviews for The Velvet Olive Lounge in Red Deer, AB
Kind of a locals spot, (I only say that because a local took me there and the entrance is in an alley) however considering the... city in which it resides, this place is cool AF. Live music quite often, nifty decor, friendly wait and bar staff, cleanbathrooms....... Next time I'm in the Deer, I'll definitely go back for an Earl Grey Martini. (You heard me, and yaaaaas, ittastes just like the tea) (mixed with liquor) Good job to whomever owns/runs it. ???????? (Bet my approval totally made youryear) (Yer welcome) Read more
Completely empty restaurant and patio, manger comes out saying patio is only for their customers rudely told us to leave. Patio... has no sign stating its for their lounge. Garbage management makes a garbage lounge! ???? appropriate like an unmarked emptypatio?! Maybe take some respect and tact when you interact with the public in a public place. You?re rude and disrespectful anda disgrace to an industry I?ve been in for 20yrs. Read more

We went in late evening and the live band was fantastic. They played a variety of music, some oldies, a little country and some... pop rock. Really had a great time and highly recommend. Read more
The Velvet Olive is one of red deers best back alley gems. The cocktails are amazing, and the new extended stage area will be... great once live music is allowed again. The waffles we had(the eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and the chicken and bacon) wereperfectly cooked. Waffles are light and fluffy and everything paired well together. The service has always been excellent. Ifyou have never been or have not been in awhile .....GO! Read more
Ambiance and service were excellent. Food menu is only breakfast type foods which surprised us a bit. We ordered the gluten free... chicken and waffles and it was delicious, even if the presentation was a bit underwhelming. We will go there again for sure! Read more
Love the small live music venue. Kind of upset that some bigger groups were talking over the live music, there are plenty of... options downtown for socializing if you aren't interested in live music. The staff was excellent, love the upgrades to thevenue. Read more
