    Our first stop on day 1 of our trip, not by chance but by design. The menu sounded impressive and I…read moreneed to start every Canada trip with poutine! Terrific service, super happy we made it in for happy hour too! A FABulous maple old fashioned, and everything we ate was so delicious. The food could have been a little warmer but just information, not necessarily a critique. Indoor and outdoor seating. Menus and tables could have been cleaner but this place has a bar vibe so....let it go.

    Overall the food here was pretty good and on par with what I would expect from a pub. The burger…read morehad a house sauce and BBQ combo on it that was delicious. It's worth noting that this is a double smash burger. The poutine side with the burger was well put together, the fries were crispy and well salted. The fried brussel sprouts on the other hand were a little bit of a confusing dish. This dish is surprisingly quite light on brussel sprouts and seems almost more like it's meant to be a salad. In addition, while the sprouts are fried and crispy, the same cannot be said for the bacon. Overall, I'd like to see more Brussels, crispy bacon to better crumble around the sprouts and less arugula. The burnt ends were a pretty good dish but were little tougher than I would normally expect from a pice of meat like that and had a texture more similar to rib caps instead of brisket. They also didn't seem to have been smoked on a smoker and just had a smokey glaze instead. I really liked the vibe of this place, it's a very relaxed environment to come and unwind at after a long day out in the parks. There's a semi-private outdoor patio with plenty of seating and good spacing between the tables. I also really thought that the service here was great, the staff were all amazing and super friendly. Everything I ordered was brought out quickly and my glasses were always refilled without me even having to ask.

    What a delicious experience! Everything was so flavorful, but the hands-down highlight for us was…read morethe pork belly burnt ends. Absolutely incredible and a must-order! The runner-up was the charred green vegetables. Seriously, that sauce is CRACK! We could have eaten it by the spoonful! We also tried a variety of dumplings. The vegetable ones weren't our favorite, but the pork and chicken dumplings were delicious. The ravioli was rich and incredibly tasty, and the chicken katsu sandwich was HUGE and packed with flavor! Of course, we had to try one of every mocktail! They were all refreshing and delicious, but the mango was the clear standout for us. All in all, a fantastic meal with so many memorable dishes. We'd absolutely come back, especially for those pork belly burnt ends and charred greens! Service was friendly and fast. Inside outside seating available.

    While visiting Canmore a group of us stopped into BLAKE Brewhouse and Distillery for dinner. BLAKE…read moreis in a newer building and has a large elbow-shaped patio for outdoor dining. Our group was located in an annex room right of the main entrance and was the perfect size to fit all of us. We had 2 primary servers who did an excellent job of making sure we had full glasses and full plates. We did family-style sharing of some of their starters and main dishes. The Bread and Butter was really delicious and it looks like their butter flavor is on rotation daily. The duck wings had a peach glaze and nuoc cham and cilantro- great combination. The chicken vegetable dumplings had great skin and texture. The peppercorn salad was adorned with pickled cabbage, capers, maple coconut, crunchy chickpeas and more - it was amazing. We also tried the Thai basil risotto and it was good but I'd go with the peppercorn salad over this if you're sticking vegetarian. The final dish was Alberta AAA Beef Brisket accompanied by gochujang mashed potatoes and broccolini. The brisket was incredible and just melted on the tongue. And the beer/spirits here were impressive as well. BLAKE is a must-try destination while in Canmore!

    Local brews Wanted…read moreto get some good local brews while in Banff and was recommended this spot. When you walk in, the first thing that hits you are the massive brew kettles in the back. Apparently, they make all of the beers on top in house. We tried their beer flight, which features their post popular beers. The pinery pilsner, happy trails pale ale, and peach cream ale were probs my fav. We also tried some of their food which was delicious as well, but the star of the show is def their beer. We tried their elk and kale pizza and tuna poke bowl. Never had elk before, but it tastes like lean beef! Would def recommend stropping by PSA: This place gets pretty crowded during peak hours so try to make a resy

Our server was from Ireland and she was a real gem, she's off to Australia soon! We had the Mac and cheese and the beer battered fish and chips. Both were delicious and served with such speed and accuracy our heads were spinning! In a good way! The Mac and cheese had shaved mushrooms, not big chunks, but shaved, that is the difference between a chef and a cook. The Fish and chips were phenomenal, they use their own beer for their batter and you just need this in your life!

    While making a charging stop in Canmore, checked out this restaurant since they had steak, which I…read morewanted for lunch so I could have delicious Alberta beef before heading east. Casual spot where we could sit anywhere. The tables are all raised, so a little awkward, but manageable. Our server was prompt with bringing us menus and water. My brother was also curious about one of the beers, so she brought us a sample. There are half pints available, so perfect for a driver who doesn't want drink too much. My steak came out perfectly medium rare and the mashed was so buttery! Would definitely recommend for anyone who likes good food, drinks, and friendly service.

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.
