Edmonton's most popular country bar is opening its own steakhouse restaurant
Giddy up, people! One of Edmonton’s most popular country bars is expanding its walls to make room for an all-new steakhouse restaurant.
Cook County Saloon has been an Edmonton staple for many years, having been one of the only country bars within the city before Daisy’s Saloon opened its doors. Now, it’s expanding into the old space where Von’s used to be, making the Cook County Saloon bigger and better than ever, along with a new Cook County Steakhouse.
Sitting just off of Gateway Boulevard and adjacent to Whyte Avenue, this saloon has been in a prime spot for a while. Its restaurant was initially announced in August 2025, and everyone has been waiting in anticipation for the opening weekend.

Cook County Saloon has just announced that it will be opening its doors to its steakhouse for its opening weekend from Sept. 19 to 21, featuring a full slate of events and excitement.
On Saturday, doors open at 6:30 p.m. with no cover for this exciting grand opening event.
This new steakhouse from Cook County is featuring weekly specials, like Wing and Whiskey Wednesdays, Steak and Wine Thursdays, and Prime Rib Sundays.
The full menu has not been released yet, but highlights from the Happy Hour menu include items like Steak Bites, Mussels, and Linguine Puttanesca. Happy Hour runs from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday.
“This isn’t just a steakhouse,” Cook County Saloon says on Instagram. “This is a whole new Cook County experience. Come hungry, come ready to party, and come make history with us.”
