    I was trying to find a place to eat for dinner that was within walking distance from my Airbnb and Bridgette bar was the closest place I could find. If you're wondering what the vibe is like based off pictures, I can validate that the bar/restaurant atmosphere leans upscale. I came for the food and drink and after one glance at the menu, the prospects were promising. Arriving as a walk-in, I ended up sitting at the bar and ordered 2 appetizers. I had their Elk Carpaccio and Roasted Brussel sprouts. Both were delicious however between the two, the Elk was my favorite. Their cocktail menu was pretty good too. I ended up getting the Alpenglow Sour and it was refreshingly delicious! The service was good. Food and drink were paced just right and it didn't feel rushed. I didn't see a parking lot however there's plenty of parking along the side streets. Bridgette Bar is a solid choice if you're looking for a good meal/drink in a chill environment.

    We got grilled octopus salad, eggplant fries, ricotta dumplings, rigatoni, and a banana pie. The octopus salad was pretty good and I liked how the flavors balanced each other. Eggplant fries were crispy and good. The ricotta dumplings were a little disappointing and each bite was very dense, which was not my favorite. I did like the rigatoni though and the truffle flavor was very strong in a good way. Banana pie was very sweet. The only thing I truly did not like was the espresso. It was very sour. Server was great and ambience was too.

    What a find. We loved Bridgette so much we went back frequently during our week vacation. The service was excellent and the food was phenomenal.

    This place is great! Great vibe and ambience, indoor and outdoor seating! The staff was all super professional and kind and gave great suggestions. The ricotta dumplings are awesome and the vodka sauce is great. All the veggies looked great. Would recommend the eggplant fries too. Takes Apple Pay

    Awesome spot for happy hour half off drinks and pizzas (2-5pm every day). Upscale casual with gorgeous Mountain Views- offering both indoor and patio seating. Not impossible to walk in but would make a reservation if you're not willing to go someplace else if they're busy. Enjoyed the smashed potatoes, snap peas, and fennel salami pizza. All delicious and very kind wait staff.

    Such a fun night! Eva & Olivia were fantastic and fun! Food was excellent and so fun to share. This added another great experience to our vacation in Canmore& Banff!

    We came to Bridgette bar in Canmore after a long day of hiking when the weather was incredibly cold out. Bridgette bar was warm and cozy on the inside feeling like a dimly lit log cabin. The ambiance was romantic and comforting and all of the staff were incredibly kind and accommodating. I mentioned that I had a sesame allergy and they helped me to pick out dishes that have no sesame and even took extra time to point out lactose friendly entrees. The dishes we decided to order and share were the crab toast, the maple bbq rainbow trout and the banana pie (which I took lactaid for). My goodness, just when I thought one dish was great each one blew me away with how delicious they were! Out of the three however my absolute favorite was the maple bbq rainbow trout. The fish was so incredibly buttery soft I could barely pick it up with my fork, and just the slightest tap made it crumble. It was atop this creamy mashed potato with a maple gravy and greens which melt in my mouth. I cannot recommend Bridgette bar more highly! It was one of the best highlights of my trip to Banff, Canada!

    Great drinks, food and service! Great options for the kids as well as for the adults who wanted to go with fewer carbs. Food and drinks well delicious and the recommendations from the server were amazing.

    Celebrated my husband's birthday at Bridgette Bar and we were SO impressed at not only the fantastic food but also the sweet and warm demeanor from our server. Out of all the meals we had in Canmore, Banff, and Calgary... we can easily state that Bridgette Bar was the best as their dishes were perfectly executed. Worth tiring home about for sure!

    While staying in Canmore, my girlfriend and I decided to check out Bridgette Bar since it was highly recommended by others online and I'm glad I did. We did a walk-in for dinner here, and we thankfully were able to be seated relatively quickly. The interior is very modern and nice, with cozy vibes for when it gets cold outside. We decided to get the Crab Toast, the Maple BBQ Rainbow Trout, and the Banana Pie. These were all excellent, with lots of flavor in each one. The crab toast was light and crispy, while the trout was super juicy with a great sauce on it. The Banana Pie was one I decided to order after seeing them slice it for others, and I have to say that it is a great dessert. The outside is toasted nicely, while the inside is filled with banana cream, coffee, and rum caramel. If you're in Canmore, this is probably the restaurant that you want to check out.

    Brigette Bar is such a fun spot with excellent drinks and food--perfect for a date night or hanging out with friends. The trout was cooked perfectly and absolutely amazing, the burrata was tasty, and the garlic bread had a unique twist. Highly recommend visiting if you're in Canmore!

    Great atmosphere, but the pizza was soggy. Waited 30 minutes despite plenty of open tables due to reservations.

    Great atmosphere, but the pizza was soggy. We arrived at 4:45 p.m. on Sunday for happy hour and still waited 30 minutes for a table despite 10+ open tables, with even the bar reserved.

    We ordered entrees instead of small plates and the food was excellent, with multiple flavor notes. My boyfriend got the banana crème pie and it was one of the best he's had. Overall, Nearly everything was perfect / good service, great ambience, thoughtful creative dishes.

    While visiting Canmore a group of us stopped into BLAKE Brewhouse and Distillery for dinner. BLAKE…read moreis in a newer building and has a large elbow-shaped patio for outdoor dining. Our group was located in an annex room right of the main entrance and was the perfect size to fit all of us. We had 2 primary servers who did an excellent job of making sure we had full glasses and full plates. We did family-style sharing of some of their starters and main dishes. The Bread and Butter was really delicious and it looks like their butter flavor is on rotation daily. The duck wings had a peach glaze and nuoc cham and cilantro- great combination. The chicken vegetable dumplings had great skin and texture. The peppercorn salad was adorned with pickled cabbage, capers, maple coconut, crunchy chickpeas and more - it was amazing. We also tried the Thai basil risotto and it was good but I'd go with the peppercorn salad over this if you're sticking vegetarian. The final dish was Alberta AAA Beef Brisket accompanied by gochujang mashed potatoes and broccolini. The brisket was incredible and just melted on the tongue. And the beer/spirits here were impressive as well. BLAKE is a must-try destination while in Canmore!

    Duck wings are a huge draw, delicious, comes in 3 different seasonings. We had the peach infused…read moresauce. A wide variety in the menu The staff is friendly, attentive and quick to help, give great sight seeing tips too. Nice warm atmosphere, very inviting and comfortable. Spacious, great place to hang, get together with friends and family
