Continuing our search of good pizza in Banff/Canmore, we decided to try rocket pie while exploring downtown Canmore. The restaurant has the fast casual vibe and recycles used San Marzano tomato cans as pizza stand which I found pretty smart and cute. We got the Diavola pizza to-go. The pizza was made to order and took about 25 mins. At first glance, the crust is not as airy as what you'd expect for a Neapolitan pizza, and our first bite confirmed the suspicion. While the flavor of the topping was solid, the texture of the dough is closer to a bar pie or chains, and the undercarriage had a bit too much char for my liking. Given the price point is the same as other nice sit down restaurants with 5 star pizzas in Banff, Rocket Pie is not quite worth it.

We were hanging around Canmore, walking the local downtown area and decided to try Rocket Pie for dinner based on the reviews and few available options in town. We got one of their pizza's to go; for $27 CAD, it was a bit below expectations. We came in to place the takeout order and it took around 25 minutes to get our food; this is good because it means it was cooked to order (like it should be for a pizza spot). Just this week, we've tried pizza pies at Pizzeria Sophia and Lupo (both located in downtown Banff) at roughly the same price point. In terms of quality of the ingredients and the level of crust/ dough, this was the weakest of the grouping considering all three spots target the more gourmet level of pie. The dough at Rocket pie was a bit disappointing and closer to a chain pizza dough than a 00 flour Neapolitan style dough and crust that you'll expect from a gourmet pizza spot with a legit oven. Not sure how to describe it but the dough tasted more pre-made than a freshly done Neapolitan style crust. The toppings were fine and the red sauce was pretty good. But again, comparing apples to apples and since the price point is about the same, we were expecting a bit more from the pizza.

Our dough was sad.

Yelp says they close at 9 PM, but I'm glad I called. They actually close at 10 PM. Great service, casual vibes, I love that they do half orders of salad. Unfortunately, I don't think the pizzas are consistent since our pizza looked nothing like the photos on Yelp. (See photo).

Margherita
Ivy L.

Stayed walking distance from Rocket Pie while we were in Canmore! Loved everything we had here! The kale caesar was great! And the pizzas were fantastic! Crust was perfect, sauce was spot on and toppings were fresh! My son and I loved the Margherita! The fiance loved his funghi and we also ordered a pepperoni for the 3 of us! Pepperoni was filled with lots of pepperonis on top; they really don't skimp on ingredients or toppings! We over ordered for 2 adults and a toddler but hey, YOLO! We were stuffed but didn't regret it one bit! I can see why the locals come here and pick up pies to-go!

Focaccia

Highly recommend! And that's high praise coming from someone who doesn't *normally like pizza. A shout out to Donna -- caring, professional, and prompt! We actually came back to Rocket Pie 3x in the span of a single week, because our initial experience with Donna was such a strong positive impression. Here's what we ordered: * Focaccia - Crispy crust, soft insides, and a delicious garlic-y taste. Like all of their "breads," this was top notch. * Funghi (vegetarian) pizza - We ordered marinara sauce on the side, and the two together were fantastic. I mentioned above that I normally don't like pizza. I even *more so don't like marinara (normally). But marinara here isn't nearly as sour or tangy; instead, it's got a nice sweet taste, and I'm a huge fan. * Pesto di Pollo pizza - The star of the show in my opinion. I can't wait to come back for this specific pizza. I doused this in the chili oil they leave on the table, and gahhhhhhhhh. So cheesy. So tasty. This is my favorite pizza at Rocket Pie, and it's easily one of the top 3 pizzas I've ever had. The only other pizzas I've appreciated are "meat lover's" style -- so for such a 'simple' pizza, this is a high compliment. * Tiramisu - This reminds me of the more "watery" tiramisus in Japan. Creamier and softer mascarpone and less structured than what you'd find at a typical Italian restaurant in the US. Overall, big big fan. It's a cute restaurant, with amazing food, and even better service. Thank you Donna!

Kale Casesar
James G.

Overall a good experience. A cute place with a friendly staff. The server was very was very helpful in helping us decide what to order. We ordered a half Kale Caesar salad along with a Diavola Pizza. I was glad we only got a half order of the Salad, even for two people it was large. Personally, the Kale Caesar salad was a bit too chewy for me but the flavor was good. I really enjoyed the Diavola Pizza.

Pepperoni and mushroom pizza

Let me first say a male employee/owner/manager said to me after I asked if they take reservations "yeah if you want to book several tables and pay me $500"! What? He was super rude. We were asking for a table for 4 people and they had an empty booth. The hostess was kind and within 20 minutes had us seated. Our waitress was awesome. Pizza was delicious. So thankfully what started out not so well turned out well.

Pepperoni pizza with added sauce that's slightly spicy. Like a bread dipping sauce...think olive oil

Went in and asked the bar if I could place a to go order, they directed me to the front of house. FOH took my order and one of the workers actually delivered it next door to the first call tavern. Great! The pizza was good and from the pictures you can tell it has a heavy helping of cheese and pepperoni, no need to pay extra for either. Adam the restaurant manager was next door first call tavern and was very hospitable and accommodating when it came to orders. 10/10 would recommend..

Formaggi pizza

If you find yourself hungry in Canmore, do your taste buds a favor and stop here! We were seated at an open bar and the bartender/ manager? waited on us and was extremely friendly. We enjoyed chatting with him while we ate our pizza. Which was INCREDIBLE... (sooo much flavor)I ended up eating my whole pizza, no leftovers there. The manager was accommodating to my modification request of adding garlic confit to my pizza. My fiancé's pizza didn't come out at the same time as mine and they made up for it by adding prosciutto free of charge, which is great customer service. Overall we had a really good time and if I could I would go back again tomorrow! I didn't try the appetizers or dessert but they looked really good!

I'd rate this place between a 4.5-5 stars. It's not the best pizza I've had but it was pretty good. I also have a high bar because of where I live in the states. Our waitress was super friendly and upbeat. She took good care of us, even though it was busy and they were a bit short staffed. We split the olives for an app. They were really good and the red ones were new to me. We split the prosciutto pizza and margherita pizza. I liked the margherita one better. The chili oil is the star of the show and my friend bought a bottle to take back. It's made in house and I'm not a big chili oil person but this stuff was delish. They had a good beer list of local beers as well!

Pepperoni Pizza

The hype is real. Believe the hype. Stayed in Canmore for just under a week. Got Rocket Pie for take out on night 2, had to come back for seconds. First night we got a margarita pizza, which was a 10/10. And the creamy garlic dip leveled it up. Second trip, we got a pepperoni pizza, the kale salad, and the house focaccia bread. Hands down one of the best pizzas we've ever had (we are from northern NJ, basically NYC-adjacent; we know good pizza). Go here if you're in the area, you won't be disappointed.

Fergus & Bix

(29 reviews)

Favourite late night hang-out spot in Canmore. Great beer selection, really good food and friendly…read moreservice keep bringing me back. Todd, one of the evening servers, is old-school cool. 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.

We arrived in Canmore late in the evening and found that dining options were quite limited, so we…read morestopped in at Fergus & Brix. 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.
