WHY SMITTY'S?

Smitty's is one of Canada's largest all-day family restaurant chains, operating from coast to coast. Their dining rooms are particularly popular among families with small children, seniors, and travellers. Almost all of their restaurants are fully licensed and a majority of them have separate lounges to accommodate teams, sports fans, and the happy hour crowd.

 

From their very first patrons at their first restaurant in Calgary in 1960, to anyone joining Smitty's today, Smitty's has always been an integral part of your community. Smitty's success continues to build because their franchisees operate their locally owned restaurants as dedicated members of their community and have been vital to their growth and success.

 

Smitty's award-winning menu will appeal to everyone at the table! From their famous Smitty's buttermilk pancakes, waffles, skillets and omelettes to garden fresh salads, burgers, steaks, and pastas. Smitty's even has a Kid's menu for the littlest Smitty's guests! Focusing on breakfast, lunch and dinner is now their emphasis and your opportunity to make your mark in your community.​​
