Seriously. I love this cocktail. Like LOOOOOVE it.
I'm usually strictly a wine girl - occasionally beer on a hot summer day. Really never have been into cocktails but I think the Compadre has changed my mind. Not sweet - a bit sour from the grapefruit juice and so amazing.
Our time at Milk Tiger was short - but well worth it. From the ambiance to the service to the amazing cocktails, it didn't disappoint.
We will be back.

On a ridiculously hot day in Calgary we stopped into Milk Tiger (What's with Milk being so ubiquitous in Calgary?) for some cocktails. With temperatures over one hundred degrees fahrenheit, every patron was on the patio melting in the sun. We shook our heads, marveling at Calgarian's need for heat, and walked into the empty interior of the bar, nestling into a couple of bar stools. The bartender greeted us with a smile, and we ordered two Pimms, the perfect compliment to a hot day. The bartender's name was Christine, and she was wonderfully engaging, informative, and entertaining. We had a great time, and Milk Tiger seemed to be the epitome of a great Calgary bar; no pretense, good drinks and friendly, happy conversation. We soon forgot about the heat.

Great cocktail menu, outstanding selection off the menu items as well. Come for a couple too many drinks and have a blast. Nice but small patio for enjoying outside.

Small cozy room that's the perfect place for good times with friends while enjoying cocktails. The drink menu is full of unique recipes that are made by skilled drink makers. Knowledgable and friendly staff will help you select the perfect cocktail if you're not sure what to order. I highly recommend this place.

It's interesting that Milk Tiger was named one of the best bars in the world by Conde Nast. The location is rather unassuming, but the drinks are certainly unique and delicious. The service is friendly and they also tend to have interesting food specials. Try the popcorn!

Stopped in for an evening drink as we happened to be in the neighbourhood. The bartender seemed to be working on his own -- so brought over the cocktail menus - answered a few questions - then went to work creating.
We had the 'Parisienne Negroni'; and the 'Penicillin'. Both were excellent. There are very limited food choices here -- this really is just a cocktail lounge - not a restaurant. But if you are hungry they do offer some basic snacks -- popcorn, pretzels, etc.
As we headed out about an hour later a few more staff started coming in. We also heard that a DJ would be playing around 9:00.
Great option on 4th Street.

This is a great small place with an extensive cocktail menu. As of my last stay in Calgary I would have to say this was the best place to get a cocktail in town.

Not much of a cocktail lounge more of a locals pub when a good bartender. Interior is all wood and not what you would expect from one of the top rated lounges in town. Had a Manhattan was served neat which I didn't care for at all. Service was extremely poor, we ordered a round of drinks and never saw anyone again. We physically had to go get the check. Wouldn't return.

If you're looking for a place with great cocktails... well this is your place. I was taken here for my birthday and had a wonderful time.
Warning: It's a very small space. So if you are planning on going with a large group, you may want to choose another location.
