    House, vodka, and tonic delicious
    Jim J.

    Eight of us went to the brewhouse and distillery on Bow Valley Trail. as we walked inside we were greeted with a modern clean look with concrete floors. My wife loved the decor. Our server was quick prompt and seated us quickly. She answered all of our food questions because the food offered here is a little different. It's got an Asian twist and I can tell you everybody at our table was delighted. My wife and I split the dumplings. I ask for the hot sauce and it was delicious. She loved it another person just got the veggie dumplings and she loved that several got the salad and was very happy with it to the guys got the chicken sandwich. They were delighted with the chicken love the sauce that came with it however, their comments were it had a little too much bread. overall, a great place to eat and oh yes, we did have a drink or two.

    Pink perfection, perfect indeed!

    I was lucky that the Blake was very close to my hotel, and the cocktails were so good that I visited multiple times. I didn't try the food but looking at a few tables around me, it looked delicious. There is a nice patio, and service was friendly. Lucky I found this spot on the first day of my stay in Canmore!

    Amazing service, ambiance, food and drinks. Cocktails were delicious too. This was the perfect late lunch place to kick off our vacation in the Canmore-Banff area.

    Lemongrass chicken

    Great food, nice atmosphere and friendly service. Had the dumplings for an appetizer and they were delicious! I had the Lemongrass Chicken bowl for my meal which also was delicious. My table had the brisket and ravioli and they said both were amazing! Definitely recommend!!

    Ginger eggplant sandwich with harasa fries

    Very inclusive restaurant offering well marked vegetarian and vegan options. The food was very good and such a nice surprise to have vegan options in a restaurant here. We even got to have a variety of ice creams to choose from for dessert. The ambiance is cool with amazing mountain views from the patio seating and also inside the restaurant which is lined with huge windows. This place can get busy so I was happy we were there on a weekday with fewer people.

    Powder Day ice cream
    Christina G.

    Amazing service and food! We checked out Blake Brewhouse & Distillery on a Saturday night. The restaurant was busy and were seated minutes after arriving. I like that they serve ciders from Core Values Cider Co. We decided to try the Sautéed Shrimp, Satay Fries, and Braised Lamb Dip Bao. Every dish was innovative, beautifully presented, and the flavours worked so well together. We ended our meal with Powder Day ice cream, which was full of fresh coconut and was so creamy. I highly recommend this restaurant for fantastic food and drinks.

    Pork belly burnt ends
    Dang L.

    Great foods. They were able to accomodate our party of 14 with 2 tables next to each other. Good variety of food menu and drinks. The braised beef : 4.5 stars. well presented and tender. Duck legs: 5 stars. So crispy with the tangy and sweet peach bbq. One of my favorite. Pork belly burnt ends: 4 stars. really burnt. Good flavors and sauce. Garlicky greens: 5 stars. Broccolini were cooked to perfection with garlic chips and a garlic mash. One of my favorite dishes of the night.

    I'm celiac, followed findmegf app here after a long day of hiking. Darren my server had a great understanding of allergy & because I asked a million and one questions about gluten and promptly forgot to order gf bun he caught it and saved me. Shout out Darren for knowledge and going above and beyond service wise. Fries have separate fryer. Menu had clear markings for GF, DF, V.

    Tofu lettuce wraps
    Lynn N.

    The lettuce wraps with tofu were good. The marinade on the tofu was flavorful although a bit salty. The lettuce wraps came with pickles, kimchi, pickled onions, pickled carrots and daikon, and rice. The combination of items in a lettuce wrap worked well together! The Dahl burger was good. The sauce on the burger was a medium spice and perfect for a lentil/kidney bean burger patty. The vegan ceasar salad was very flavorful too. Our group ordered a few burgers and everyone enjoyed them. This is a great restaurant option for Canmore.

    Pesto gnocchi
    Suzy H.

    Very friendly service at the bar! Nice looking place both outside and inside; open, clean, and happy customers. (Maybe that's just Canada?) The food came out fast and was very tasty. The craft beer on tap was also delicious. Definitely worth a try if you're in Canmore!

    So good we had to go back:) My husband and I visited twice while staying near the area and were impressed with the food and general vibe of the place. We did not have to wait to be seated at around 225pm(1st visit) and 430pm (2nd visit) started with Sangria and a beer for the hubby. We also order the bread with flavor infused butter and the burnt ends, my husband's favorite and a must have if on the menu. These were Asian inspired and fantastic. Bao and Brisket were our entrees- both delicious. The brisket was very tender and portion sizes were large. Even though we were stuffed we wanted to try the ice cream- Strawberry Rhubarb was amazing! When we returned for a second visit we did get the burnt ends again as well as the Burger with Charcoal Bun and Butter Chicken sandwich. Both prepared well and tasted great. Fries were salty and crisp. Staff were friendly and attentive. The large doors being open was the cherry on top- nice breezy summer day vibes while sipping Sangria and listening the their epic playlist:) Nicely Done Blake Brewhouse!!! Highly Recommended!

    Their parking lot is all dirt, so it could get dusty when windy or muddy when it rains. There were no parking spots available, but I was able to park on the street. They have patio and indoor seating available. When the weather is good, they will open the garage door so you can enjoy the outside air. But it was a little warm and windy when we were there so they had it shut. I noticed that there were a few Asian inspired items, which I ended up ordering their pork chop. It was a little on the smaller side, but it was good. The cocktails here were just ok, but I would stick with their beers. Overall, it's a good stop over if you are either in the area or need a break before heading back to Calgary.

    Braised lamb sandwich on top, Tofu Sweet potato bao buns with side salad next to sandwich
    Alia G.

    Very Tasty! This is not your typical bar / brewery food. These folks are creative with their dishes. The husband had the braised lamb sandwich and it was like a Bahn Mi sandwich made with lamb but only better. Incredibly tender and flavorful ....this sandwich melted in your mouth. I got a small bite... If we have time to go back... I'm ordering this for myself. I was "trying to be good"... so I ordered the Tofu Sweet Potato Bao Buns with a salad. You don't even miss the meat. These bao buns are bursting with goodness, flavor, a touch of heat and veg! So many good things going on here. And the buns?! OMG! Light and airy... not dense thick buns. The salad... is no pedestrian, ordinary salad. For being a vegan caesar salad, there was no shortage of flavor nor ingredients. Perfectly dressed in their peppercorn dressing... it had lettuce, pickled cabbage, capers, smoked coconut bits and crispy chickpeas. I don't think I'll ever be able to order a normal caesar salad again without thinking back fondly on this salad. Keep in mind, I'm not vegan.... so this was a total surprise to me and I LOVED IT! I had a cider and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was light, crisp, dry, tart and a little fruity. Just perfect for a light afternoon adult beverage. Husband had a beer and very much liked it. Like I said... if we have time, we will be back. Highly recommend this awesome place!

We started with two small plates and a vegetable: Salmon Crudo, Pickled Marinated Fried Chicken and the Cabbage. Wow. Wow. Wow. We decided to eat each one entirely before moving to the next one. Each one had such unique flavors, we wanted to focus on them and enjoy without confusing our taste buds. I highly recommend doing this! Then we ordered the Lamb dish. Our menu said it was going to be a curry dish, but when it arrived it was a Mediterranean dish. It was honestly dreamy! But we were confused because I guess we had a copy of the old menu. Nonetheless, I basically licked the plate! Lastly we ordered the chocolate salted caramel budino (pudding) for dessert. It was so luscious and went perfectly with our end of dinner hot drinks of tea and cappuccino. The serviced matched the food: also fantastic. Super professional and friendly waitress (I forgot to ask her name) she was so personal and we enjoyed talking to her. They comp'd our lamb because of the menu mixup which was so nice! If you're a foodie who enjoys good service, definitely try this place!

    The hype is real for this ramen place in Canmore! This place was recommended by our lake tour guide…read morewho told us that the wait was worth it, and that he'd often go there three times a week. My husband and I decided to go here for our final meal before leaving the Banff/Canmore. When we arrived we put our name on the waitlist and because we weren't local, we informed staff and were given a pager to alert us when our table was ready. It is a very small place with a few tables and counter seating. When we entered the restaurant we were seated at the counter and I observed the place being run by only a few people but they have a very smooth system going! Food came out promptly and was well worth the wait! I ordered the original arashi tonkotsu ramen and my husband ordered the black sesame version and we shared a seaweed salad. This broth is delicious and very savory but also it wasn't heavy like some other ramens do. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting, just make sure you have time to wait!

    Ramen Arashi is probably one of the best ramen shops in town. We actually wanted to try this…read moreyesterday in Banff, but the time and wait just didn't work out for us, so we aimed to try this today in Canmore. We finished up our day exploring Kootenay and ended up at Ramen Arashi around 7:30ish PM and we entered ourselves on the waitlist. It's a small shop, so we didn't get a chance to ask how long wait would be, but judging by the 10 min wait we did, the turnover seemed fairly quick. We just did a quick walk around the nearby grocery store and back and our table was ready. Between the four of us, we shared Chicken Karaage (2 orders) and a Pork Gyoza. My partner got the Arashi Ramen while I got the Yuzu-Shio Ramen. Order came out quickly. The Chicken Karaage was fried pretty nicely. Juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. It came with a sweet red chili sauce I believe. I think that pairing was okay. Sauce wise, I would have preferred an aioli or none at all. The gyoza were also made the same - juicy on the inside and had a crispy outer wonton shell. This sauce was spicy though! So if your spicy tolerance is low, taste at your own risk. My partner loved it! I just can't handle that spice level. Onto my main dish, the Yuzu-Shio was great for the chilly night! Ramen was perfectly cooked and had a bouncy chew to it. The pork was not too fatty and also tender. The spinach and bamboo shoots were great additional toppings. I wish they swap out the salad leaves with some more hearty veggies since the salad leaves break down with the hot soup pretty easily. Otherwise it was a great and satisfying dinner. I'm glad we got to try this while we were in Canmore!

The matcha was good; we ended up picking up some again before ending our trip. I recommend adding the kinako topping.
