    Terrific food. Fresh, large portions, and most with a side of seasoned popcorn. Tasty bakery items. I had the ahi tuna poke tartare which was one of the best I've had. Hubby had the mountain veggie wrap with tofu scramble (a bit of a turmeric taste then hummus and Caesar dressing). Very good. Colorful tables outside plus seating inside. Lovely staff. Fair prices. Such a lovely place!

    I was in dire need of an amazing cup of freshly roasted and brewed coffee and that's exactly what I got when I visited Communitea. What a beautiful locally owned coffee shop. They have a huge selection of freshly baked goods, sandwiches salads and of course .... amazing coffee. The staff were very friendly and helpful to a new customer. I am so glad I found this spot.

    Great Pad thai !!

    Very good food and the coffee is delicious Not cheap at least you get good experience! Located in down town.

    Veggie Burrito

    We dropped by for brunch on a weekday and the cafe was still pretty busy. We got the veggie burrito, Buddha bowl, hemp protein balls and a mocha. Food was delicious and the service was quick. The cafe was adorned with beautiful paintings on sale from local artists. Worth a visit!

    This is a great cafe and I wish I had discovered it sooner while in Canmore. I came on a rainy Tuesday for some coffee and food and to do some reading before heading out for more hiking. I got the pad Thai, which was good and filling, and a coffee. Coffee was above average. Really nice staff and a great place to read a book or get some work done. Lots of big windows and light which was nice. Tons of teas to choose from, many vegan options, and the salads looked really good. Great spot in downtown Canmore!

    This was a lovely place to stop for lunch in Canmore! I got avocado toast, which had hummus, avocado, tomatoes, and I added smoked salmon. The combination of flavors on that toast was so good and satiating! Popcorn as a side was super unique but very fun. Plating on both dishes were very visually pleasing as well. I would come here again if in Canmore!

    CommuniTea Cafe really hit the spot after a day of splurging on foods and adventure. I was really craving something fresh and healthy while on vacation. This really hit the spot! Communitea Cafe is a really cute and spacious cafe. It's open with plenty of seating indoors and some seating outdoor. You order first and then have a seat. I ordered the Buddha Bowl with dressing on the side. I loved the shredded beets and carrots along with the handful of spinach. I do wish there was more tofu, but otherwise, I really enjoyed this combination bowl with the brown rice. My partner also got the taco bowl, which has also really enjoyed. This is great spot for quick meal. They also have a good selection of teas, which I always appreciate! The cashier is friendly and answered all my questions! The portions are decent and satisfying. I definitely enjoyed my meal!

    Satay Noodle Bowl
    Amanda L.

    Came here for lunch with my family - portions were a bit small, especially the quesadilla (only 3 pieces). The prices were a bit high, but the staff was super friendly. It is clear that they are environmentally conscious (and compost!) and market themselves as a healthy eatery. From best to worst: The best thing we ordered was the Chipotle Chicken and Avocado Quesadilla. The cheese was sharp and yummy, and the quesadilla came with red pepper hummus and a side of chips. Overall very flavorful. Avocado Side Up: there was not enough avocado in the slightest, but still tasty. The bread was a bit thick but had a nice crust on the bottom. We also enjoyed the popcorn, which was cumin flavored. Buddha Bowl: this was a little plain, and there was not enough tofu. There was a great variety of greens in there though, and the sunflower seeds gave a nice crunch Satay Noodle Bowl: DO NOT get this one--the noodles were too soft and broken, and the flavor was overpowered by coconut and not enough peanut. My brother also got the Taco Bowl which he enjoyed - it had plenty of toppings.

    Very nice laidback and unpretentious place. I first came for breakfast and tried the avocado toast. It comes with hummus, avocado and tomato. I thought the avocado and hummus pairing was unusual but it worked well. It's served on ciabatta bread. We also stop by to get one of their bowls to go so we could eat it on our flight back home. We got the yoga bowl and it was so delicious. I really loved the tahini dressing and the masala chickpeas. I definitely think this is a good option for virtually anything, breakfast, lunch, light dinner and everything in between. I am going to try to make that yoga bowl at home. Hopefully it turns out just as good.

    Clever name, delish bfast and the dark chocolate truffle tea was one of the tastiest teas I've ever had. I had a bfast bowl filled with spinach, quinoa, eggs, black beans, bacon, avocado, can't remember what else. So darn good! But that tea!! The place is charming, staff very good.

    All the colors! (Matcha Latte, Avo Side Up, Maple Latte, Protein Power Bowl)

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.

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.
