Great spot on Bear Street! They have a second patio out back is which is quiet and lovely. We had some drinks and shared a margarita pizza (sourdough crust!). Server was super nice and friendly. Patio is very dog friendly! read more

Arrived 2PM on a busy Saturday. No problem, we were seated in less than 5 minutes. I ordered a Rutting Elk Red from Grizzly Paw Brewing in nearby Canmore and my wife and I decided split a Caesar salad and a double pep double cheese wood fired pizza. The beer came promptly and the salad was right there shorty. The beer was local, delicious, and cold. The salad was one of the best in recent memory and there was enough for 3 people! The pizza was served just as we finished our salad. It was hot and absolutely delicious! If you're in Banff and have a hankering for wood fired pizza and great local beer, this is the place! read more

Came by on a Sunday afternoon for a round of drinks and a light bite. We ordered a margherita pizza ($23.50) to share, plus the 'Jam Rock' blackberry sour (The Establishment) and "What the Huck' Huckleberry Ale (Fernie Brewing Co.) among other drinks. The pizza was below average, and while the drinks were good, everything was quite expensive... $15 for a pint that wasn't even on draft. Our server was very nice and knowledgeable about all the beers. read more

This pizza was out of this world!! Loved the honey and chili dip. The flavors in this viva La pizza knocked our socks off. One of our fav meals in Banff, and we weren't even in a pizza mood. We're not huge pizza eaters, but this is not to miss! I liked it so much I realized I posted twice read more

This was my favorite meal in Banff, and we tried some "highly recommended" places that were awful. The service was great, the food was delicious. We had the Godfather pizza and really enjoyed it especially with the honey and chili sauce to dip the crust into. The summer salad was delicious too with peaches, mint, arugula and candied pecans. I would definitely come back on a future trip. Prices were a good value. The ambiance outside was really pretty! read more

This place surprised us! As a gluten free person, so many times I read reviews of people who say "this was the best GF crust" only for me to go and it be disgusting. I have traveled across the US and to 5 different countries and this is probably one of my top gluten free hand tossed/thinner crust pizza. The crust is nice and soft in the center of the pizza with a crispy (not like a cracker) outer crust. They also have vegan cheese that was really good. Everything just had great flavor: the red sauce, toppings (pepperoni was so good). We ordered to go one night and dined in another. They also serve the pizza with this AWESOME chili oil and honey. My husband ordered the Canadian (pepperoni, bacon, mushrooms and honey drizzle) on gluten free and I ordered the double double with vegan cheese (double pepperoni, double cheese). We ate outside on what I think is the prettiest street in Banff--Bear Street. Beautiful view of the mountains read more

This was the best meal we had in Banff and NOT overpriced. We had the pulled pork nachos, pizza and Caesar salad and all were excellent. They actually have separate patio for dogs with a dog menu. Cmon that has to be a 5/5. Check it out. read more

Their gluten free pizza crust is excellent! We had the Mediterranean and Margherita pizzas. The Buddha bowl and beet salad were delicious as well. Our server was super friendly and helpful with giving menu recommendations. Kids were hungry since we were having a late lunch due to a morning full of hikes and they were understanding and accommodated our order quickly. Cute patio seating on a quiet side street. read more

Plenty of outdoor space, we had the steak lettuce wraps and a fried chicken sandwich and a sampling of their beers. Dog friendly and staff was friendly. read more

Bear Street Tavern deserves the honourable mention as the 'must try pub' while in Banff! Sit indoors or outdoors on the street patio & view scenic Bear Street & people watch while you chow down. Or you can sit out at the back courtyard for semi privacy. Two menu items right off the bat you must get - The Wheeler Hut pizza & the Citrus & Beets salad!!! Don't forget to drizzle some honey & chilli oil (it's not hot) all over the pizza! If you're feeling brave enough - top it off with some chilli sprinkles!!! Your pizza will become even more amazing!!! Truly one of the best pizzas I've ever had!!! Whatever secret dressing is on the C & B salad, it's absolutely mouth watering! The whole mix of slow-roasted beets, arugula blend, orange, dill, pistachio, goats cheese & orange lemon vinaigrette is 100% on point! Mangiare! read more

Simply OUTSTANDING!! A new experience. They brought to us honey and a Rosemary Infused / Chile Oil. I was shocked at first, but decided to give this Canadian adventure a try. WOW! It was so good to be able to dip our pizza in that really tasty sauce. However, lets get to the star....the PIZZA! When we were done, my wife stated that "this was the best pizza I have ever had". I will say it is in my Top 3, which is huge since I have had many great pizza's in NYC, Chicago and LA and other great pizza towns. This pizza was incredible. The dough is what made it for me, but the cheese and toppings were very good. Not greasy and cooked to perfection. This place is in a cool location and has a great vibe. The people are super nice and really care about your experience. We could not have had a better pizza and a better experience. AWESOME!! read more

The pizzas are great, slightly pricey but everything in Banff is pricey. we loved their hot oil/honey combination that you can put on your pizza. I recommend "The wheeler hut" pizza. read more

We stumbled upon this place when we were trying to go next door to the vegan friendly restaurant, Nourish and to our dismal it was closed and I was sad. Well in all fairness, it was Christmas so I don't blame the restaurant to have been closed and for Google to give us incorrect info. As we were walking back, we saw this place, looked at the menu and they said they have vegan cheese and could make most dishes vegan - I was sold! When we walked in- luckily there wasn't any wait - I loved the vibe immediately! It does give away that tavern kinda vibe with most tables drinking beer in a stein. (It was bigger than my face. ) We ordered garlic fingers, stein of beer and Mediterranean pizza. Everything was absolutely so delicious. But what sets this place apart is the staff. They were awesome, they talked to us, spent a few mins asking about our trip, made recommendations for what people generally like at the restaurant etc. I will most certainly go back here if I'm ever in Banff. P.S when we asked, they said the wait is generally 2hr long in summers - plan accordingly :) read more

This place should be considered only as a pizza joint. Right up front, we did not have the pizza, so I can't review that aspect. The other food on the menu was basically fast food and not good fast food. Chicken sandwich was made from fatty chicken thighs and cooked to death. If you want pizza, this may be the place for you, but for anything else, look elsewhere. read more

Let me start by saying this is the only establishment we made sure to dine at a 2nd time during our 5 days in Banff. It was our first and last meal there. We REALLY enjoyed the winter salad. Both pizzas we had were fantastic. The star of the show is the house made chili oil and honey offered for dipping/drizzling. I seriously need to find a way to make the chili oil at home. Truly special and unlike anything I've ever had. Make reservations for dinner- this place was hopping and many were waiting when we arrived. At lunch time it wasn't too busy and we easily got a table to watch a World Cup game while enjoying our pizza and salad. The servers who helped us were both great. My husband really enjoyed a kombucha and cider from the bar. Whenever we return to Banff, this will again be our first meal. read more

Godfather Pizza: Lots of arugula, garlic and olives. Our waitress recommended us to mix up a spicy honey as dip for the crust and it was great for dipping the pizza as well. Caesar salad: best Caesar salad I've had. It had super fresh romaine lettuce, very crunchy and juicy and the croutons were extra crunchy as well. It came in a very big bowl and my husband and I demolished it. read more

Love, love, loved this place. The brewery we wanted to go to was closed so we ended up at Bear Street Tavern and I'm so glad we did. Excellent beer options with tons of local brewer options. They also have an excellent menu with lots of options, although they are known for their pizza. They had decent choices for vegetarians and I had a Mediterranean pizza while my husband had one with pork and pineapple. They were delicious and I loved the different dipping sauces they had for the crust. It was definitely unique. Service was great and I would definitely visit again if I was in the area. read more

Went here on a whim after a long hike and was very happy with our meal. The honey and rosemary infused chili oil that they give you to dip your pizza/crust into was arguably my favorite part of the meal, and they were just the free sauces! Minus one star because I wasn't in love with my pizza, the pesto sauce wasn't my favorite (kinda tasted like some sort of green sauce, not a pesto), but anything smothered in that oil and honey sauce combo was still winning. Would recommend! read more

This was probably our favorite pizza in Banff! Reservations: You NEED a reservation here. They are so busy that if you just walk in they will probably tell you they don't have the room. So do yourself a favor and pull up OpenTable now to book you a table. Food: Beer - great selection of beer from allover the place. Caesar Salad - really good with plenty to share. They brought a big bowl of salad with a few plates for us to split it. Pizza - your "must get" is any of the pizzas. But specifically, you MUST try it with the chili oil and honey that they provide. That was the true game changer. Overall: I'd tell anyone going to Banff to come here. This was one of our favorite meals all trip (and pretty decent value for what you get). read more

Randomly stopped in here on a visit to Banff with my mom because we got hungry, so we just stopped walking when we saw pizza, so glad we did! Our server was extremely nice, the pizza was delicious--thin crust with creative toppings, served with an absolutely delicious hot chili oil and honey dipping sauce on the side. Great selection of local beers and wines. Good atmosphere. We didn't have any cocktails, but their selection looked fun as well. read more

When planning for our trip to Banff, my sister & I looked up the best place to get Pizza & Bear Steer Tavern was at the number one spot! We checked it out & we're not at all disappointed! If you want amazing pizza, this is the spot for you! Bear Street Tavern is the perfect place to have dinner, drinks, & watch a hockey game with the girls, boys, family dinner, & even date night! It's dimly lit, comfy, sports bar vibe is the perfect place to enjoy a winter evening! I ordered the Bianca pizza & added roasted garlic, best pizza I've ever eaten! 1000% My sister ordered their regular pizza & she loved it! We both ordered Shafts to drink (my new favorite Canadian beverage of choice) Delicious! Our server was fantastic, he was upbeat, energetic, prompt, & friendly! He made sure that we had everything we needed & that we were comfortable at all times! You need to come here, no questions asked! Just make sure you have reservations because this place is popular & for very great reasons! Good food, good people, good atmosphere! You won't be sorry! Cheers! read more

Great atmosphere and cheerful staff. The beers are brewed in sure which is fun, especially if you like trying new brews. However. The portions for the cauliflower and chicken wings appetizers, Althing tasty, were very disappointing. Not enough to share and costly. Pizzas ok, could have stranded a few more minutes in the oven. I have hopes this place will get better with time.good for drinks read more

Excellent service and amazing food. Our waitress was quick and polite. I highly recommend trying their pizza.

The pizza was very tasty, the prices were reasonable, and the pizzas come with chili oil and honey that you can dip them in which is a great and novel idea. We were seated on the outdoor patio, which gets really hot in the summer, but not something they have too much control over as indoor dining was closed. Just make sure you're in the shade. read more

This was my first time dining out in 3+ months, so I was definitely a little bit nervous about the experience, but the folks at Bear Street Tavern made me feel at ease. Both their patio and indoor seating area are open. My friend and I got there at 5:30 and it was getting chilly outside, so we opted for indoor seating. It's a big space, and I was reassured to see all tables were spaced quite far apart. Each table had an extra empty table next to it, where the servers would stand and take your order or pass along any drinks and food. There were no physical menus. Instead, patrons could scan the QR code on the table and be taken directly to the menu on their website. No one ever came directly up to our table, and all restaurant employees wore masks, so I thought the restaurant did a great job in following covid rules. I had a delicious peach cider ($7) for my drink, while my friend had the Saskatoon berry lemonade ($4.75). We were both happy with our drinks. We shared the smoked chicken wings ($16) to start. I've never had wings cooked this way, but it was served in a cast iron pan. I thought the price point was a bit high for wings, until I saw the portion and realized it's good for even 3-4 to share. The chicken itself was tender and moist, though a bit on the bland side because I didn't use the piripiri sauce that came with it. My friend liked it better cooked this way than fried. They had a $10 special on a couple different pizzas. It's a great deal, especially because the pizzas are 11' so great for sharing. My friend and I each ordered a margherita pizza because we were starving, but regretted our decision since we could each only finish half our pizza. All in all, we had a great experience here, and I'd highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a lunch or dinner spot in Banff! read more

Went here off of a local's recommendation and it did not disappoint! Would recommend a reservation, as they are pretty busy, but they have a quick turnaround! We sat inside, but they also had a beautiful outside patio! We had the Viva La Pizza and a few drinks. The pizza was amazing! 8 slices for 2 people was just right! The highlight of this meal-the honey and chili and rosemary infused oil that they give you to dip the crust in! SO GOOD! I will definetly be recreating this recipe at home from now on for my pizzas! read more

Absolutely fantastic. Amazing everywhere from the drinks to the pizza. We started out with chips and a cheesy dip that was fantastic and presented really well. They had a wide variety of drinks and all 4 my family got were outstanding. The salad was good and was perfectly light for after a hike. The pizza was then fantastic, with a perfect amount of cheese and not to big of a crust. Our server was very kind and we got most of our food within 10 minutes. They also had a fun bonus of a signed Man United kit from 2010/11. If you are looking for something for after a hike, or a nice dinner after a calm day this is a go-to place. read more

LOVED the food, the beer, and the ambiance!!! Highly recommend!! Definitely a brewery vibe which is perfect for us!!

I love this place! We came here on a cold rainy evening but our only option was to sit outside because we had our pup with us. Bear Street has the coziest back patio with heaters on each of the tables. They also brought our dog a doggie blanket to lay on and a water bowl as soon as we got there. My husband and I ordered the Hawaiian pizza and the wings to share. Both were delicious. The wings were on the smaller side but very flavorful. Their beers come in pints or steins. Would've been nice to be able to order a flight so we could try all of the beers. Would rate this place 5/5 for atmosphere and service and maybe 4.5/5 for food/drink. Would love to come back and try more on their menu sometime. read more
