When it was my turn I got their Sticky Bun and Apple Square. There is limited seating inside. Even though it was very busy we scored a few counter seats, which allowed me to enjoy my sticky bun and White Mocha before heading to Maligne Lake. I liked them both, I'd rate them as about average. What I really liked was my Apple Square that I ate hours later. It was crumbly with a lot of apple flavor. Service was efficient and fine. We are glad we stopped in.

The Other Paw is a coffee shop with fresh pastries baked on the premises. I wanted something that I haven't seen in US and got the Butter Maple Pecan Danish for $3 CAN (about $2.40 USD). Unlike US Danish, it's thinner and less sweet. The nutty topping was delicious. The danish was on the drier side but still good. They also have sandwiches, salads, desserts and coffee.

Gayle's gobbled up choice didn't make it to our train (Via Canadian towards Vancouver), while I saved mine for coffee on board. Unfortunately, Gayle and I just scratched the surface of this place as there's cakes, pastries, and other goodies (plus coffee). I wish we could come back. There's also the main Bear's Paw a few blocks away, which shouldn't make any difference, except for maybe the size of the line-up.

One nitpick I might add: they call the pizza "Neapolitan style", but it's not actually the fluffy Neapolitan style of pizza but the thinner/crispy style (very good nonetheless).

It's so amazing to have this truly Korean restaurant in a tiny town like Valemount. A lot of people order take out but there is still plenty of seating inside. The space is a bit older but it makes sense for a remote town. The staff were super friendly to all the customers and you can definitely feel the small town hospitality. The food was perfect for our trip and really hit the spot. Although they are surely not as great as most of the Korean restaurants you might find in Vancouver, they are good enough and we really appreciated having the option on our trip to enjoy a warm bimbimbap. Overall a great experience and I definitely recommend it if you're passing through!
