Owner of the restaurant stops by at every table to ensure everything is good and asks for feed back. I told him I didn't like my food (clean plate) and I can tell he didn't get what I meant. I said it's the other way around and he got a good laugh. Minimal decors. Spacious, airy, booth and regular tables available. Live Karaoke soon. Yay!! More clientele to come. Separate washroom with a lil bit of confusing sign. Have to look twice to make sure you're going in the right one. There were 4 of us in the group. These are the food that we ordered : Breakfast Sammy (CAD$15.99) - the sandwich is good except for the home fries. After it got cold, it became tough. Fettuccine Alfredo (CAD$15.99) - it comes with a soup or salad. Additional CAD$4 if you add Shrimp or Chicken. Pasta was Al Dente and the sauce is on point. Food was devoured. Deluxe Happy Belly Burger (CAD$16.99) - the beef patties are thick, well cooked and tasty. Optional add ons with additional fee like onions or mushroom. The name is aptly. French Toast (CAD$13.99) - it was okay. I have tasted better. I was in awe with the amount of bacon that came with it. It was a lot. I was expecting to get a few pieces. That made up the whole meal. We left the restaurant with Happy Belly and Satisfied. For sure we will come back when we find ourselves lost in the area.

The restaurant has distinctly diner vibes, and appeared possibly associated with the Travel Lodge that was structurally adjacent. Joane (?...she did say it was with a single "n") was our very gracious server. Two of us ordered the cheese burger and the 4-cheese creamy penne, respectively; both were tasty and satisfying, done well as "diner" selections. The remaining two of our party opted to do "midday breakfast" instead and ordered the Grand Platter to share...which came with a big side of "entertainment" value as it was unexpectedly served on a Lazy Susan - 4 each of bacon, ham, sausages, and eggs, 1 pancake, toast, and potatoes! Can definitely feed two if not three. Would certainly dine again here if ever coming back out to this somewhat remote destination in Alberta.

There are only about 6-7 sandwiches to choose from, but to me this means they are doing things right by having a small menu! Lots of sides to choose from and a ton of local craft sodas and beers too. We got: 1. Beef and cheddar - messy but good, served on a baguette - this was enough for me to eat lunch and save half for later! 2. Caprese - fresh and delicious on a fluffy focaccia bread 3. Hot Italian - cappicollo ham - spicy, lean and delish!! 10/10 will make that drive back!

Well the steak should be resting in the kitchen your customer should not be expected to wait 10 minutes to let the steak rest after it's been served to the table... Duh. The fries were really good, the vegetables were boiled to death they tasted like stale water they clearly spent their entire life in a pot of steaming water. Expect typical pub food. Drinks are very reasonably priced.

A+++++++++++++++++++++++…read more After a long day of ice fishing in southern Alberta, after a 2 hour driving home, I thought "I'm going to stop in at the Flying Monkey for a late dinner". It was Sunday at 9pm, I was pleasantly surprised that they stayed open till 10pm on a Sunday, and I kind of expected the staff to be annoyed at me coming in so close to closing / especially on a Sunday.... I can not express enough that The staff were absolutely fantastic, welcoming, charismatic, kind and joyful. The food was even more amazing. We ordered the classic Alberta burger and... honestly... I think it was one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life... HONEST. To make it even better- the chef was also super kind, friendly and he clearly loves to cook, feed people and in general is stoked on his job! I haven't experienced an atmosphere and customer services like this in quite a long time, It was a total joy to dine here and witness people enjoying their job and being happy- PLUS with great food. This was on Dec.30th 2024 and I think the boss/owners should give their staff a big shout out for being awesome. I will 100% be back, more people should check it out, this place is a JEM and the food is INCREDIBLE. Better burgers than anywhere Calgary. Hands down. You should be proud. Thanks for the grub and awesome ceasers!

Fantastic little find on the way back to Calgary from Drumheller…read more This is a quaint little diner that appears to be family run. They were all warm and attentive. The photos don't look like much but the seasoning was perfect on everything. I ordered the special of chicken milanesa. It was a pounded chicken breast breaded perfectly, topped with sauteed onions, with a side of fries that I could not finish. My lunch partner ordered a small bowl of borscht, which was not very small, and a meal of perogies. The borscht was loaded with vegetables and sausage. The perogies had a perfect cheese filling and sausage on the side. Both of us had a side of coleslaw with a light but creamy dressing. I cant say enough about their seasoning. It was light but perfect. It totally enhanced the food instead of overwhelming it. This place has perfected some very good hearty recipes. We were way too full to try the pies. That is my only regret. This place is one where I would highly recommend if you are near Drumheller and looking for food. It is worth the 30 min drive

I really hope this review somehow pushes the average of Country Cousins up to 5 full stars. That…read moreit's currently at 4.5 is a travesty. This is the small town dining experience of your, my, and every respectable person's dreams. This is the place that your favourite local joint tries and fails to emulate. This, good people of Yelp, is a place you simply cannot miss if you happen to be out and about in God's country. The Mennonite waitress here was the most sincerely kind server I've ever come across. She was helpful, efficient, and encapsulated the warmth that Country Cousins emanates. Over the course of two visits, I had the Famous Iced Tea, the Mennonite Plate, the 4 Berry Pie, the Peanut Butter Pie, and the pickled carrots. First things first: I'm not sure just how famous the famous iced is, but I can tell you one thing - it's not famous enough. This iced tea would be served iced cold with my last meal. In fact, if it were my last meal I'd die happy. Is it sweet? Oh yeah. But it's got a flavour that I remember from my childhood which I just can't pinpoint. Like Pruste's madeleine, this iced tea brings you way, way, back and leaves you there long after the mason jar the tea is served in has dried up. The Mennonite plate is a wicked combination of Mennonite sausage, the finest cabbage rolls anyone could put together, and the single best half dozen pirogies this man has ever had (get the cottage cheese option). The sausage is made by people that make sausage like their lives depend on it. Meaty, tasty, filling cooked sausage an inch in diameter and split in half. Delicious. The cabbage rolls perfectly combine juicy cabbage with tasty ground beef, pleasantly acidic tomato sauce with sour cream. Yum. But the pirogies are where the sun really shines. These pan fried delights taste like how pirogies can be at their best. The dough stands out with a starchy flavour of its own, and the cottage cheese provides that cottage cheese texture that only it has, along with a familiar tang. The pirogies are dressed in a rich white sauce that probably isn't necessary but definitely doesn't hurt either. The 4 Berry Pie meets and exceeds your expectations for what small town pie can be - juicy, sweet, whole berry fillings ooze under the most buttery, flaky crust imaginable. The Peanut Butter Pie is unlike any pie I've ever had. It has a custard and whipped cream base which is essentially flavoured with peanut butter. Delicious, but a bit too sweet for my liking. Had to drown it down with that Famous Iced Tea. The pickled carrots were a revelation. Perfect crunch, perfect proportions of dill and garlic. Just a delight. Bought a jar to bring back home. Overall, Country Cousin's an absolute must-try if you're in the area. An experience you won't soon forget.

Traveling through Drumheller on our way to the forgotten corner and stumbled across this place…read more My SO had a bacon cheeseburger and it was a classic seasoned dinner burger, served on a lightly toasted bun with lettuce, tomato, pickles and mayo. Classic cheddar cheese not just a Kraft Singles piece of plastic. I ordered the Santa Fe pizza. Loaded with huge chunks of bell peppers, chicken, sliced tomatoes, and the perfect amount of hot banana peppers. Both of us were beyond satisfied and enjoyed our meal. If you're daring or starving they have a 24 oz burger or a 18" ~ 6 lb pizza to try. The milk shakes were delicious; and if you're going to order a pizza, either order 2 or add a glass of water on the side. This is because you're going to be done your drink before your food arrives they're so good. The staff were friendly, quick to tidy the tables as they were emptying and very polite. The dining room was bright, each table painted differently and designed by someone local. Very charming. So coming back when we have time and are driving through.

The dining room was not too large but was made efficient with table placement. We ordered at the counter then were assigned a table by the woman who took our order. There were a few other patrons when we arrived. Our food came out in about ten minutes. I had a double cheeseburger with onion rings and Andrew had a mushroom burger. His burger had a gray mushroom sauce on it that made the burger sloppy. Andrew enjoyed it. My burger was not your typical burger. It seems to be hand made and had some seasoning on it. It was a bit too salty and and also kind of tough. It was good though. The onion rings were typical. Business really picked up while we were there with many more customers.
