    Crispness!
    David S.

    Well, how can I pass up the chance to review an American chain restaurant? One of three in Canada, all of which are in Alberta, apparently. The restaurant is attached to the Fox Hotel. I was a walk-in, and the pleasant host took my phone number and after a short wait and a text message, I was in. I mean, this is Banff, right? The outdoor seating looked prime, so of course I ate inside. Indoors was clean, bright, and sort of rustic. It matched the chalet style houses along the road. My server was busy but friendly, and soon I had placed my order for 5 "Crispers" and a Wild Life Caesar. The food came quickly. The fries were a bit crispy and nicely salted. The coleslaw was creamy, not too sweet, and had a really fresh taste. It was a nice match for the Crunchers (chicken fingers) and the Buffalo sauce. They were not greasy at all, the breading was crunchy and thin, the chicken itself was tender and whole chiclen, not the nasty ground up and formed miscellaneous chicken bits and the Caesar was a good spicy serving. (I especially appreciated the slices of pickles on a spear draped over the top.) Nothing earth shattering here, but for what it is, an upscale chain restaurant, everything was pretty darn good, and overall a slight notch above similar meals I've had. (I was really tired of getting chicken fingers with tendon still embedded.) It was packed when I got here and still packed as I type this, so I think that says a lot.

    Nostalgic. Not amazing food, but it's a cute rustic forest-y setup and looks clean. It's basically your typical American fast food sit down type of restaurant etc. I honestly only liked the viral Mozerella sticks that everyone posts about, everything else is super mid. Our waitress Liv tho was super super nice. She was one of the reasons I gave a 3 and not a 2. Handled our big party of 12 very kindly and patiently.

    Mushroom Swiss Burger

    It was late by the time we returned to our hotel in Banff. Located in The Fox, Chili's was a familiar place to sit and relax. It was also a great opportunity for me to try some Poutine. My meal was their Mushroom Swiss Burger and the aforementioned Poutine, and I couldn't have been more pleased. The burger was greasy and messy and good, the Poutine even better than I remembered. Our server was so nice. We had arrived not much before closing and instead of trying to move us along, he did the opposite and spent time chatting with us. We had a nice time at Chili's before walking back to the hotel full and tired.

    Poutine and the triple dipper

    If you're going to Chilis you're expecting Chilis and this definitely delivered! Tasted exactly the same as home and even had a view with it! We sat inside but next to the window and ended up with an amazing view of the mountains. Definitely recommend if you just want something familiar! But if you're looking for something slightly different, the menu here does have poutine and it's actually pretty good!!

    Ok I know this is "just chilis" I've eaten at chilis a thousand times. This is worth the visit. It's a beautiful restaurant and the staff is very friendly and prompt. Food was normal chilis fare and it was a good value. If you go eat here you can say you ate at the Banff Chili's.

    Mushroom Swiss Burger with Onion Rings
    Arron P.

    Came here to see what Chili's in Banff is all about coming from out of the country. It was okay and mediocre at best. We ordered the mushroom Swiss burger and sirloin. The sirloin was a bit tough and broccoli wasn't fresh. The onions rings were on the soggy side and the batter wasn't cooked enough. The burger was okay. The service was friendly, but the wait for the food was on the slow side surprisingly since it wasn't even busy. The ambiance is casual. This is definitely a one time visit and suggest you go somewhere else. Cool to see there's a Chili's here though.

    Bacon ranch burger and fries
    Gaileen L.

    Holy cow now that's a burger! Two patties with bacon and cheese! At least a pound of meat there!! Very filling. The service was excellent! The ambiance of the place was relaxing and warm! Definitely a place we would come back to! Worth every penny and more!

    If you're looking for some Mexican food in Banff this would honestly not be my first pick. The food was mediocre for the prices (I normally love Chili's food), and the drinks were weak. However, if you're staying in the Fox Hotel or nearby it is worth dropping by for an Aprés Ski Margarita. Also, our server on the night we actually ate dinner there was named Josie, and she was wonderful. The bar was also very accommodating by letting our large group of students watch the ncsu basketball game.

Admittedly, I'm not much of a drinker but I'll have some once in a while and Bear Street seems to have a pretty good selection. I tried a Vietnamese Coffee Stout which I enjoyed. I'm definitely more of an eater than I am a drinker and the eats at Bear Street Tavern are excellent. My party got 2 pizzas and a salad and we enjoyed it all. To start we got the Tavern Bowl. It's a bunch of different vegetables with a Tahini Miso Dressing and kimchi on top. All the different textures and flavors worked really well together and the salad served as a nice break between bites of pizza. The Wheeler Hut pizza has mushrooms, ricotta, truffle oil, pesto, and mozzarella. If you're a fan of truffle flavor you'll enjoy this pizza. As soon as it was brought out I could already smell the truffle. The Mediterranean has olives, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, red onions, chili flakes, spinach, mozzarella, and balsamic glaze. A little busier than the Wheeler Hut, but it was equally delicious. I'm not sure which pizza I liked more. Both pizzas had a fantastic crust with some char. Substantial enough to stand up to the toppings but still a little doughy for a nice chew. The char gives a nice crunch as well. Service is quick and friendly and the prices are fair, especially in a tourist area. I definitely recommend Bear Street Tavern.

They're incredibly attentive but not annoying. We had great conversation with many of the them and they genuinely care about you having a memorable experience. The views on the patio (alfresco terrace) are as epic as it gets with views of the breathtaking mountains everywhere you look. It's been named the best patio in Canada for years and you will see why when you walk out of the beautiful Rundle Bar onto the patio. The menu is made up of classics and signature creations. I had the Ember which is an old fashioned variation made up of high quality spirits and an infused maple syrup it was one of the best cocktails I've had in a long time. It didn't hurt that it came with a smoke show. It was so good that I have to create a separate post with photos and videos vs. detailing it here. Trust me, it's gorgeous!!! Banff has been on my list forever and I finally visited. The Fairmont Banff Springs hotel was equally a place I needed to experience and it didn't disappoint. The Rundle Bar was a bonus I wasn't expecting so make sure you make time to visit this magical place when you finally check Banff off of your list.

One of the best things about Banff Ave Brewing is that all appetizers are half off on Fridays (at least during happy hour)! They also have a nice selection of beers. Their flights are neat in that they offer 6 options instead of the more typical 4, so you can try everything you want to try. We had the nachos, poutine, and several beers. The poutine was a bit salty but the nachos were excellent, definitely get the beer cheese sauce as an add-on. I also got to try a special dragonfruit kolsch they had on tap, which was really mild and easy drinking as well. I'll definitely be back when I'm in Banff again!
