Meet the owner

ONE18 EMPIRE is more than just a whiskey bar – it's a nod to Calgary's past as part of Canada's western frontier. It's operated by storytellers, not servers. They serve locally sourced, Canadian favourites. For all these reasons, it’s easy to see why Calgarians fell in love when ONE18 EMPIRE opened in February 2015. "Of course we are service people, but we like to think that we are more than that," says general manager Kai Hochhausen. "We like to think of ourselves as storytellers. We give guests an experience unlike anywhere else, and a lot of that is through our storytelling."

When a guest sits in the lounge, servers are ready to suggest a whiskey cocktail, a shareable appetizer or a hearty meal. They greet tables with backstories about the whiskey, as well as the location’s history. The Empire Hotel – a watering hole for railway travellers seeking refuge in the early years of the city – once sat in the exact location of ONE18 EMPIRE with the street address 118.
