    Poutine
    Dang L.

    Don't know why it has bad ratings. Overall, pretty decent food for a fast food place. It was a casual place like any fast food joint. Our server was pretty patient with us and answered all the questions regarding the food. Got the teen burger: four stars. Pretty decent flavors with pickles, mustard, and ketchup. The burger patty was thin but juicy. They had sesame buns which I also liked. The frozen root beer was like a root beer, icy or slushy. It was pretty good. Not as sweet as the ones with the fructose corn syrup, but I was happy with the taste. I also tried their poutine (well since I'm in Canada and all). It was ok. Fried smothered in a gravy with cheese curds. Flavor was good I just liked my fries crispy.

    This is the Canadian version of Whatburgers; it's open late and that's the advantage it has over many of the food spots in the area. The food is decent enough for what it is; the poutine was actually edible so you need to give that a 3/5. The burgers aren't terrible either; honestly around a Wendy's/ Whataburger level.

    I came in with low expectations thinking this was going to be an ordinary fast food chain, but boy was I wrong!! Everything was served fresh. The fries, the veggies, the burgers... they were all so good. The fries and onion rings were crispy and served piping hot. The sweet potato fries are a delight. The teen burger was our fav. The patty was juicy, and the buns were toasted nicely. The root beer was crisp and refreshing. They also have a sugar free root beer option, and it actually tastes legit. We've already made two visits and will most likely be back again lol. Service is quick. We are from Texas, so the place gives off Whataburger vibes, but a much better version.

    A&W is a Canadian-owned company. It's #1 fast food in Canada, so we have to try it once. Full disclosure - I'm not a big fan of fast food chains. There is a drive-thru at this location. We decided to go inside to order and take our time looking at the menu. It's your typical fast food with burgers, fries, sides and sugary sodas. I think the root beer float or slushy is their popular item. It was super sweet as I had expected. We all had the "Uncle" with bacon, lettuce, tomato and cheese. The beef patty was juicy but lacking sauce. The fixings were soggy by the time we got back to the house, which was only 5 minutes drive. The sweet potatoes fries was the best out of all with chipotle mayo on the side. The onion rings was too doughy and fell apart as soon as you take a bite. I wish I had taken photos of the food.

I'm the only person in my family who cannot eat gluten & here I could safely taste their food. My husband and I both ordered fish and chips. The fish was crispy & hot and the fries were good too. My kid ordered poutine with brisket. The gravy was also gluten free. Everything was fantastic, great versions of these classic dishes. The service was great from start to finish. We were greeted and seated immediately upon arriving. When I mentioned how excited I was to see gluten free fish & chips, the server was proud to share that they have a dedicated frier for celiacs. When we were ready to go she had the plates cleared & a check instantly. It was a perfect lunch.

The burgers look good - but I can only judge and review based on my food. I had the butter chicken with added naan, as I strongly prefer not to eat burgers or red meat for health reasons. Sorry but I found my butter chicken a bit disappointing. - The chicken was a bit dry. I was choking at one point. - the naan seems to be store bought and microwaved. - the sauce was not bad, though nothing standing out. - they forgot to bring me steamed veggies. They did bring them eventually but it seemed like microwaved veggies. So in summary a bit disappointing. My friend who had bison said it was tough.

Had a nice ambience with plenty of seating inside and outside. However we found it was a little chilly inside the restaurant, especially near the windows where we were seated. The staff was friendly, but we found that service was a little slow even though it was not busy at the time of our visit. We appreciated the variety of breakfast items. It was definitely catered to international visitors. However, the food itself tasted just average. We ordered the Eggs Benedict with avocado and tomato, pancakes, French toast, and the omurice. The eggs Benedict came out cold, the omurice needed some additional ingredients for flavoring, and the pancakes and French toast came out dry. They charged us extra for a little tablespoon of extra maple syrup. The only tasty item was the smashed potatoes. Overall, would not recommend this place. It didn't seem like the price matched the quality of the food or the service.

It's a great spot if you're looking for a mix of international and Western flavors. Reservations can be made directly from their homepage via TouchBistro. There are about 10 spots available in the private parking lot. While it was too cold to enjoy the patio during our visit, outdoor dining is available in warmer weather, and the mountain views from the restaurant are stunning. FOOD: 1. Firecracker Calamari (3/5) - Crispy calamari with sautéed peppers, soy, and sesame. Unfortunately, this appetizer had more side ingredients than actual calamari. It's shareable between 3-4 people, but I wouldn't order it again. 2. Canmore Pasta Bison Ravioli (3/5) - Served with a creamy au jus sauce, sautéed mushrooms, and parmesan. I didn't try this one personally, but those who did said it was just "OK." It comes with one slice of garlic toast. 3. Chicken Nirvana (4/5) - A coconut-based gravy with ginger, green chili, curry leaves, basmati rice, and Kerala parotta. The curry was a bit watery for my taste, and I wished the spices were more pronounced. That said, the parotta was nicely crisp -- always a win. 4. Alberta Beef Short Ribs (3/5) - Served with vegetables and gravy. I had a few bites and liked it, but something felt like it was missing -- I couldn't quite put my finger on what. 5. Atlantic Salmon (5/5) - Paired with a tarragon leek lemon emulsion and vegetables. I rarely order salmon at non-Japanese restaurants, but this was an exception. The salmon was perfectly cooked -- not dry at all -- and the emulsion brought everything together beautifully. The service was OK. The server was pleasant, and our drinks never touched the bottom. However, we had an early dinner time, and they were out of two items on the menu. Would I come back? Maybe. I'll explore other places before coming back.

He and the excellent Chicago hot wings make Fergus & Bix worth more than one late night Happy Hour visit. The wings are marinaded, fried, dipped then baked - perfect. I'm a little beer snobby, but my spouse says the in-house Wooden Ship beers are good. Great place to watch sports too. Lots of TVs but not too intrusive if you're not interested. Ambiance is warm and relaxed. Happy Hour offers some nice choices, and is twice per day every day as is the norm in this tourist town. Definitely recommended for folks who want a pleasant adult atmosphere. You also avoid excessively intoxicated and rowdy revellers. They're over at the corner of Rose & Crown and Drake.

Upon arrival, we were provided with a liquor menu but not a full food menu, and were directed to order from the happy hour menu. This created a bit of confusion at first, but we made the best of it. We ordered the Beer Board, which included a selection of sausages, Italian meats, cheeses, and pretzel bread. It was well put together, with good variety and satisfying portions--great for a late-night bite. Overall, while the experience wasn't exceptional, it was a decent stop considering the circumstances. It served its purpose and provided a solid option when not much else was available. That said, the bar itself is pretty decent. Carries some ambiance --perhaps a place you'd hang out for a few drinks.
