Cinnamon sugar chimney cake
Daisy L.

A small stand serving fresh chimney cakes, Al's offers a variety of toppings and ice cream to accompany them. I opted for the basic cinnamon sugar chimney cake. It came out fresh and warm with a soft, easy-to-pull-apart interior and toasted exterior.

We went to Al's chimney cakes because we saw it while walking by earlier in the day. We braved the rain to make it happen and IT WAS WORTH IT!!! This place is so amazing. So unique and such a wonderful dessert!!! Warm chimney cake cone with wonderful flavored ice cream and toppings served out of a super cool cabin themed building. Al is a master of his craft and is such a great friendly young dude! Thank you Al!!! -Your friends from Illinois

5 Stars - A Sweet Must-Stop in Canmore! Al's Chimney Cakes is a delightful hidden gem in the heart of Canmore! We stumbled upon it while strolling downtown and were immediately drawn in by the sweet, cinnamon-sugar aroma coming from the shop. The chimney cakes are baked fresh to order, warm and crisp on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside--absolutely heavenly. We tried the classic cinnamon sugar and one with Nutella and strawberries, and both were incredible. You can really tell they use quality ingredients. Al was so friendly and welcoming, and the cozy, charming vibe made the whole experience even better. Perfect for a treat after a hike or a sweet afternoon pick-me-up. We'll definitely be back next time we're in the area!

Classic chimney cake with vanilla ice cream

Highly highly recommend! Service was quick, cashier answered all our questions and the food was delicious! I got a classic chimney cake with vanilla ice cream - you would never guess it's vegan. Honestly, very impressed!

The dessert I never knew I needed. Ice cream on top of a donut cone covered in cinnamon and Nutella. So good.

Rocky Mountain Flatbread Company was recommended by a fellow hiker. He thought it was good enough…read moreto recommend to a stranger. He was absolutely right. We were seated very quickly and was given water and menus immediately. The wait staff was very accommodating and they all worked together as a team so you were never without a full glass of water and any needs you had answered. From the photos below, you'll see that image was as important as taste. Rocky Mountain flatbread was rocked with customers, but they did a fantastic job at getting food out in a very timely manner and never left you in need of attention. Our experience was great and I would recommend it also. If you happen to be going to the artPlace it's a rock throw away.

On recommendation of our tour guide from Banff adventures,…read morewe are here. Very cute , quaint place with welcoming hosts and hostesses . We were quickly seated without reservations. The waitress made her recommendations. We split 2 pizzas. Hot honey and the meat pizza, the crust was thin which allowed the flavor of the pizza to shine through. It was very good. I also had the mushroom soup which was excellent. The kale salad was great too ( both recommendations as well) Our overall experience was great! I highly recommend coming here for one of your meals in Canmore. We even had leftovers to eat which were great the following days. I

While making a charging stop in Canmore, checked out this restaurant since they had steak, which I…read morewanted for lunch so I could have delicious Alberta beef before heading east. Casual spot where we could sit anywhere. The tables are all raised, so a little awkward, but manageable. Our server was prompt with bringing us menus and water. My brother was also curious about one of the beers, so she brought us a sample. There are half pints available, so perfect for a driver who doesn't want drink too much. My steak came out perfectly medium rare and the mashed was so buttery! Would definitely recommend for anyone who likes good food, drinks, and friendly service.

Favourite late night hang-out spot in Canmore. Great beer selection, really good food and friendly…read moreservice keep bringing me back. Todd, one of the evening servers, is old-school cool. 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.
