The Maisie Story

Maisie, like its name ‘Pearl’, is a rare gathering place where Western hospitality meets history; blending food, culture and the spirit of the Calgary Stampede.   

Envisioned as more than a café, Maisie is a destination and beacon within Stampede Park. It complements the artifacts and stories of the Sam Centre with food and hospitality crafted with the same care, rooted in sustainability, local agriculture and artisan tradition. At the same time, Maisie celebrates modern creativity while serving as a platform for the next generation of farmers, producers and chefs.  

As part of the Stampede Campus, Maisie extends the Foundation’s core values of diversity, culture and authentic hospitality through the universal language of food. From daily offerings to weddings, corporate gatherings and community celebrations, Maisie shines like a pearl at the heart of the Sam Centre. A place where story, community and hospitality come together.
