Where is The

Hitchin Post Bar & Grill

We are located on Highway 2A and near the intersection of Highway 53.  We are a short 2-minute drive to the Calnash AG Event Centre, across the highway from the Cattle Auction house and within minutes of several hotels and the downtown core of Ponoka.  If you visit during the Ponoka Stampede, we are within 5 minutes walk of the fair grounds and the RV park.

The Hitchin Posts’ parking lot is perfect for those who need to maneuver their large cattle, horse, or other type of trailer.  Quick and easy access to the South or North along highway 2A or East or West along highway 53.

The Hitchin Post Bar & Grill is in the quaint little town of Ponoka 45 min south of Edmonton and 30 min north of Red Deer in Central Alberta. The Origins of The Hitchin Post date back over 80 years but has been primarily known as The Hitchin Post Bar & Grill for the last 5 years.

Our Story

ABOUT US

We do our best to not purchase ingredients where every other business purchase from and we instead support a vast number of local ranchers, farms, greenhouses, butchers and produce farmers.

You will never get a bad meal from The Hitching Post. Always out standing and staff are really friendly. Like walking into a friend’s house for supper.
