the best places to eat and drink awards
Andy L.

Not many places open today but that worked in our favour today. Instead of going somewhere right next to the highway we went up a street and found "From Scratch". Winner of a Gold Plate award for one of the best places to eat in Canada . We tried the asparagus soup and the mushroom bruschetta and the lemon tart. I also had the homemade berry soda which was really really good, made from local berries picked in 2019. All of the food was good but we especially like the mushroom bruschetta and the lemon tart which came with a berry compote and whipped cream. What a great find. Nice people too!

Mussels and fries - good seasoning, not a unique flavor

This little place is located right on the way to fairmont hot springs and has ample parking. The inside has a great atmosphere and hipster vibe which I thought was very cozy. They had a little store inside and the price range was great for the portions. They didn't have that much sitting space inside though. The food tasted great for most of the plates, and was very standard in the flavor range. They did have great home made gluten free bread though so we ended up buying a loaf. The service was very confusing. They brought you menus and brought your food, but they didn't want to come over and take your order. So I guess they expected the entire party of six to go up to order? But when they brought the food out they of course didn't know who had what. Also, my water glass was not refilled until I asked for more water, even though they came by a few times to see how we were doing. A little weird that they couldn't add the small service of taking our order as that would not have disrupted the dining experience. But over all I think it's a cute place and family owned with the food really tasting fresh and from scratch.

The breakfast menu

From Scratch is a nice valley brunch option. Their wood-fire baked offerings are very delicious. Note the ordering process is a tad atypical in that you have to go order from the counter and they bring the food to you. The pitfall being you may get seated where you want and then lose your seat when you go to order. Overall, we like From Scratch a lot and come here semi-routinely. We also like that they have some Gluten-Free choices. Seating options aren't awesome, but the food is.

Thai Green Curry

This place is great to have around the Fairmont Hot Springs area. There aren't that many places in the direct Fairmont area so I was glad to see something new. Especially a classy restaurant like this. The Cons: The interior of this place is absolutely fantastic and modern. But you have to order at the front though which I kind of think is a bit tasteless for the look of this place. They do have servers anyway, so I don't know why your seated customers would have to order at a till as if this was some kind of fast food place or something. But whatever, that's how it works here. We had the Bruschetta first. This was by far my LEAST favourite thing I tried off the menu. It looks really appetizing, but its just bruschetta on 1 solitary piece of bread. We had 3 people who wanted to share it. It's an appetizer, make it sharable. We had to get our butter knife and cut the piece of bread into shareable pieces. I have never seen Bruschetta served like this and I was not a fan. I don't understand why you would make it hard to share with each other? It also came with a side of mixed salad leaves what tasted unwashed and completely disgusting to be honest. We didn't eat those. The Pros: Ok this is where is gets good. Like I said before the place is beautiful on the inside. I had the Thai Green Curry for dinner. It wasn't anywhere near actual Thai Green Curry but it was it's own kind of spin on it. It was delicious and hearty. There were a lot of veggies inside of it and the ride was yummy. It was good and I was really happy with my choice. I also tried their chocolate mousse. It was delicious and comes in a tiny mason jar that they seal for you and let you take home. I really liked that. It was rich and creamy and it actually stayed as mousse for the time I was eating it. Good quality for sure. They also have this iced tea berry drink. It was amazingly good. I'm so glad I ordered it. The service was good, and the people working here seemed friendly enough. Lots of smiles all around. Food came out in a decent amount of time. You can actually see the chefs at work because the restaurant is very open. I have to say that I was really impressed by the inside of this place. Conclusion: I'm so glad a nice restaurant like this opened in Fairmont. I have been coming here every summer since I can remember and it's nice to see something of good quality opening up here instead of closing down. I really hope there are good things in store for this place and it stays open for as long as possible. Hope to see it again when I get back down to Fairmont. :)

Breakfast tart with a side of baked beans!

What a great find in Fairmont today! Stopped in for brunch after some horseback riding! I had the breakfast tart and it was awesome! Love the service! And the inside of the restaurant is so cute!

The best breakfast in town! Homemade eggs benny is delicious. Service is top notch along with a clean and friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping in.

GREAT little Café with amazing local and fresh food. The eggs Benny were great, only thing I would change is to ask them to toast the bread the eggs are on. The green curry shrimp was an awesome lunch dish.

Pulled pork with salad

The Invermere Bakery - Oatmeal raisin cookie

We always try to visit locally owned spots when we travel so in we went for a sweet treat…read more There are quite a few pictures on the walls and information about the history of this spot and the family that presumably still operates this bakery. There was a basket at the front with discounted bread from the previous day. It was very hard to resist because it looked delicious and was less than $2. We were headed out for a hike next so we stuck to our plan for one treat each. We were really hoping for pastries but that section of the case was empty oddly enough. My husband chose the oatmeal raisin cookie. It was way too crunchy and not much flavor unfortunately. I adore meringue and was intrigued by the unique shape of theirs so that was my choice. Perfection! My big issue with meringues are the gumminess inside the big fat ones. This design remedies that and I will be buying a piping bag and making mine this way forevermore. The chocolate dip was a nice, yummy touch as well. Just an idea for the shop-- We have a place in the UK and there is a shop there that adds chunks of candy bars to their meringues and it is heavenly. Seed planted, locals! You're welcome!!

A little pricy but those truffles and multi seed glutton free bread were might tasty! This bakery…read morehas a little bit of everything like jams, breads, pies, teas and truffles. It is played out very nicely with an area to sit and enjoy your tea and sweets. The displays are beautiful and lure you to buy more calories than your body needs. Since this is the last day of our stay in Canada, I purchased some truffles to give as gifts. They were very nicely wrapped in a small see through box. I also purchased some tea ...mango passionfruit for my daughter-in-law who likes all sorts of unique teas. The lady at the counter was courteous and there was a young man sweeping the floor as we entered who greeted us with a smile! Too bad we waited for the last day of our vacation to visit.
