Pre-pandemic it was supposed to be coming to a location near but not in Ice district.

had lunch at King's Taps in Kelowna 2 weeks ago and wouldn't say no to one of those. Just wish we a marina to build next to.
Relatively cheap advertising for banks given the market here. Expensive for local places, unless you've expanded to a chain setup like Icehouse. Wonder if the food court in Stantec stays as is or if they ever do anything else with it. Same with the former Rexall space that closed and never opened again.

King Taps only has 2 locations, in Toronto and Kelowna. A far cry from Cactus Club, which appears to have a location in almost every corner of the Lower Mainland.

How about a Keg? It needs to return from the suburbs after the Old Strathcona location closed a few years ago.
It can setup shop at Stantec in the vacated Rexall or in what was supposed to be the food court.

King Taps is the place for hometown vibes, impressive beer taps and seriously good food at our Toronto and Kelowna restaurants.

I think 104 Street might be a slightly better location for the Keg, although the Ice District is also good.

Ice would be IDEAL for the Keg given hotels, parking, big events etc.

Braven in the Ice District at JW Marriott
Atlas in the Ice District at Grand Villa
DOSC on 104th
Chop at the Sutton
Ruth Chris at the International Trade Centre
Lux in Commerce Place
So 6 Steakhouses already within 2 1/2 blocks of Ice District excluding places like Japanese Village. Which one will go under if a Keg opens in Ice District? My guess is DOSC and Chop.

DOSC is a far more complete offering and much different crowd.
CHOP is a different demographic and experience.
Atlas - is that even open anymore?
Lux - different market.
Ruths - higher end and more out of town tourists or special occasion

The Keg could also open more of a lounge/drinking concept like they have in Yaletown.

Unless they have steak available why bother? Lots of places to drink within 5 minute walk. I do think a full Keg downtown will knock out the competition and there will be casualties and nothing wrong with that.
