A common place to gather
Fonda Fora is a nod to the celebrated fondas found throughout Mexico. Traditional, unpretentious, mom and pop eateries with just a few tables serving breakfast, snacks or inexpensive Comida Corrida.
Today, the definition of fonda has become blurred and is used to describe a range of restaurants, from classic white table cloth joints to modern, chef-driven restaurants.
Fora, the plural of forum, is a place where ideas can be exchanged. We want Fonda Fora to be a place to gather, converse and enjoy an incredible meal amongst friends.
Take a trip through Mexico’s rich culinary heritage.
Located inside the Westley Hotel in the heart of Downtown Calgary, Fonda Fora is an exciting new contemporary dining concept brought to you by the folks at Thank You Hospitality.
