We all care about drinks and good times… a lot! Everyone working at Proof is fully immersed in cocktail culture. We live and breathe this stuff and if you love it as much as we do, we will geek-out with you. If you could care less about the stuffiness and just want to have a perfectly crafted drink in a fun room, we are here for that too. The best way to learn about what we are about is to come down and visit!
Hidden beneath the heart of 17th Ave, Calgary lies a whisper from another era of time — an underground speakeasy cocktail bar & lounge where upbeat jazz hums through the brick walls and cocktails are crafted with a touch of rebellion. Descend the dimly lit staircase, slip past the unmarked telephone door, and find yourself in a world of clinking glasses, craft cocktails, elegant eats and a breathtaking atmosphere. Here, the city’s modern pulse meets 1920s decadence. A place where every cocktail is ART and tells a timeless story from the era and every night feels like it shouldn’t exist… but you’re glad it does.
