The inside looks really small, but they have a little more seating in the back, so we were able to get seated immediately! My dad and I ordered the popular burgers - the stampeder and the Rocky Mountain. The stampeder was BIGGG, I could barely bite into it because of how stacked it was. The onion ring and tomato were sliding out with every bite haha. The burger is served with ranch on the side (yum, my fav), and I could tell they add dill to it. I upgraded to poutine, and that was the way to go. The gravy has a familiar taste, like one of the instant gravy mixes I've had in the past (good stuff). The cheese curds were great. Everything together was delicious. It was hot and pretty filling. The burgers were so juicy and flavorful. The bison tastes like a regular patty, but the elk does have a distinct flavor in comparison. My mom got sweet potato fries, and they were so thin and crispy!!! Service was phenomenal!!
After arriving in Banff later than expected and settling into our hotel, we hopped on the bus back into town in search of dinner. Thankfully, Eddie was open late--we got there around 9 PM, and it was still bright out thanks to the summer daylight! We were craving something hearty and comforting, and this place hit the spot. My husband customized a double mac burger with a side salad, I ordered the honey garlic chicken wings, and we shared a full side of poutine. Our waiter was fantastic, and the food came out fast. Everything was delicious and satisfying. Luckily, our hotel had a microwave because we definitely left with leftovers. The atmosphere was laid-back, like a casual sports bar. A great meal to end a long travel day.
Stopped by here late last night on our search for a burger after a long day at the National Park. We were seated quickly at the barstool and our order of a regular burger was taken quickly. Ambiance was a loud sports bar vibe, and sports highlights were playing on the TV right in front of us. There was very limited table seating, unless you wanted to sit outside but it was too cold. The food took a while to come out but service was friendly. The burger itself was tasty but too small for thr price in my opinion. The crinkle fries were decent but didn't taste fresh. Overall the meal was enjoyable but not the best burger or fries in the area.
We came for the poutine...and it was our first stop as we rolled into Banff. Located in the heart of Banff, we snagged two seats at the bar and ordered some beer while we waited for our poutine. The poutine is just as expected...hot, crisp fries, hot gravy, melting the white cheese curds. We fried pickles were not my favorite, but you can't say no to fried pickles. We shared The Eddie, a classic burger and enjoyed the onion rings. Definitely a fun place to visit for lunch or dinner!
Excellent burger made just right and that's what made this burger place outstanding. We had the Bison burger called the Stampeder and we love every bite of it. Poutine was okay, tbh I've had better poutines (not in Banff though). Onion rings were so good, they're crispy and went very well with the dipping sauce. As for the draft beer you can't go wrong with Original 16, my current favorite. Special thanks to Shawn our host who is so kind and constantly checking on us to make sure everything is well. Seatings are available inside and outside this place.
We were craving burgers and poutine and found this place walking by. We sat outside and enjoyed the scene. The burgers were good. I loved my bleu burger. It had a good kick with the jalapeños. I loved my sweet potato fries, so thin and crispy. I was okay on poutine. The gravy is good and not overly salty. The fries were thick and not crispy at all. Very limp and got soggy quick. I think if the fries were fried crispy, it would be way better. Our server was very nice, she was from New Zealand. Sorry we did not catch her name though. But everyone has been nice so far.
SO GOOD WE WENT TWICE. My husband and I loved this place!! The burgers were amazing (gotta get the bison) and the poutine was the best we had while in Banff. The service was great and we enjoyed all the bartenders and waiters both times we went. They were super informative about the area and genuinely appeared to enjoy the job. This is a great place to go if you're looking to watch sports while in Banff, especially American sports. We stopped in for lunch two different days just to watch March Madness.
5 Star Service - John was awesome and gave great recommendations on the menu as well as activities to do in the area. Wings and fries were delicious. The dry rub on the wings makes you not even need sauces. Small, cozy, and super cute restaurant + bar. Would be a great place to watch a game. Clean and efficient. Recycling on point! The staff seemed to work great as a team!
Tour guide had recommended visiting Eddie's for a bite when in Banff and glad he did! Patio was great. Service was great. So many burger options including bison and elk patties. The poutine fries side upgrade was amazing - tasted a bit lighter and portion size wasn't out of control which I think is great. I got the Rocky Mountain burger as my main with was an elk patty and highly recommend it. The rest of my friends all enjoyed their burgers too and we all got different items. Shared a pitcher of beer as a table!
Had a great meal at Eddie's in Banff. The atmosphere was relaxed, and the staff was super chill and inviting. The club burger was amazing, cooked perfectly, and really hit the spot. The hot wings were spicy, just the way I like them. Definitely a solid choice if you enjoy some heat. We also tried the Trashcan drinks since they recommended them, but since we are not big fans of Red Bull, they weren't really our thing. Still, they were okay. Overall, a fun place with good food and a laid-back vibe. Would definitely come back for the burger and wings.
This was my first poutine experience and based on what I consumed it is not for me or Thai is not the place to experience it. It is a cute bar that seems like a really fun location in the evening and great for a drink. It could be good for other pub food options (burgers onion rings, fries) but experience wasn't ideal because of the poutine. It was extremely salty tasting. Go grab a beer here and chat with the friendly bar tenders.
Eddie Burger Bar is an awesome burger spot in downtown Banff. It's a little pricey but offers a wide assortment of burgers, drinks, and sides. The portions are decent yet flavorful enough to keep you satisfied after a long morning of hiking. I ordered the Rocky Mountain with poutine and really enjoyed the burger. They Rocky Mountain came with an Elk patty, blueberry chutney, cheddar, romaine lettuce, sautéed onion, mayo, and brioche bun. Elk is a dryer type of meat so blueberry chutney gave the burger just the right amount of sweetness and juiciness. The service was pretty good and I enjoyed the outdoor seating. You get to people watch and see a view of downtown Banff.

Decided to visit Eddie burger while I was in town I'm Banff for a vacation. I heard on more than one occasion this place is great! Even the bartender had said there are super duper long wait times in the summer. Limited seating. But good for parties size 2-4 people. $$- about 18-30. $5-8 drinks. Food!! Tried the elk burger and the bison burger. The sides we got truffle fries, and sweet potato fries with Cajun mayo! Would definitely recommend what we ordered! If you're a fan of truffle fries go get it! Savoury and yummy all in one. Mmmmmm. I tended to like the bison burgers flavour more. But enjoyed the toppings of the elk burger. Would ask the server for recommendations or simply choose your own burger! Mmmmm. Would come back and tell others about this place. So good!!!!! read more
Even though I got here right between lunch and dinner, the place was still pretty busy. I took that as a good sign. Since I was by myself, I was seated at the bar. After looking over the menu, I ordered the Eddie Classic and upgraded the fries to poutine for $3 extra. The burger was pretty average. Not bad. It certainly wasn't that good to warrant the higher price for an average burger. I was thinking perhaps I should've built my own burger. The poutine was more of a "when in Canada" thing which I didn't really care for since I prefer plain salted fries. The service from the bartender was good even though I wasn't drinking any beer. He was friendly and always made sure I had water to drink. read more

Great lunch place. Made reservations for 12:45 and we were seated in 15 mins. It's a small place with few tables on the inside and plenty of seating on the outside. We had the Eddie Double Mac and the Malibu Club. I had sweet potato fries as a substitution for regular fries and she the poutine as the substitute for hers. Burgers were good and service was excellent. Roughly $60 USD after gratuity. Yes, it's expansive but you're in a touristy area and I think it's worth it. read more

The music was awesome so the anticipation for the food had to meet up to the level of the atmosphere. And... it did!!! In so many levels. The burgers are divine and the sides are equally as good! Truffle fries, poutine fries bacon cheese tots and the garlic aioli dipping sauce. All of it was great, but there were a few hiccups. The host spilled an entire glass of water on my lap. Most places would have taken an appetizer off or something. Oh well. They also don't take Amex. Good thing we had another card. Would have been much better if they fixed a few thing. read more

This place is kind of pricey but the burgers are great. The crinkle fries were great too and they give you a lot. It is a smaller restaurant with not a lot of space so it can get really busy, i'd recommend calling in and placing a reservation otherwise you may have to wait 1hr+. read more

Arriving late at night after hours of driving, all I was craving was a burger. And Eddie Burger hit the spot! Even though we went at 10pm, we still had to wait roughly 30 minutes to be seated. Not only is it a popular place, the interior is on the smaller scale and even smaller due to limited seating (approx. 10). However they were super organized and efficient. Our food came out relatively quick, hot and tasted delicious! Fried chicken burgers are my personal favourite but the beef burger was way better. What really stole the show were the upgraded sides! All burgers come with regular fries and you can upgrade for sweet potato fries, Caesar salad, poutine or deep fried pickles. I highly recommend getting the sweet potato fries and poutine! I personally felt like the price was expensive for what you get but overall it was delicious and definitely satisfied my cravings. BREAKDOWN OF MY ORDER: "Eddie Double" $22.50 = 2x 6oz beef patties, cheddar, lettuce, pickles, onions and eddie sauce (sub fries for sweet potato fries: extra $1.00) "Fried Buttermilk Chicken Burger" $18.50 = fried chicken patty, jack cheese, pickles, jalapeño ranch and lettuce (sub fries for poutine upgrade: extra $3.00) read more
Late night drinks only- no cover, strong drinks (especially the trash can). Other drinks were decent. Main bar area gets crowded but if you go to the back around the corner there's more room to sit, and the bartender comes around to take your order. read more

Came here after a full day of traveling hungry and ready to eat! The Eddie burger was flavorful and delicious, but the star of the show was the fried pickles for me. Our waitress was super sweet and very attentive, she even brought our dog a bowl of water. Great place to check out in Banff if you're craving burgers and love great service! read more

Delicious burgers (many types of meat AND non-meat). Several sides options. Crazy tasty red bull "trashcan" drinks and boozy milkshakes. Plus the men who work here are very friendly and have fabulous accents from many countries. read more

Great service and good food. Our group got the recommendation from some fellow Yelpers at an event in town who said they drive up from Calgary twice a year just to come to Eddie Burger + Bar. With that kind of a nod we had to check it out. I was the first to arrive around 7pm on a Saturday evening. The place was completely packed without a seat in sight. The nice guy at the front took my name and number and said they'd text in about 15-20 minutes when the table for 6 of us would be ready. This was great because we were able to browse the shops around the corner to get Xmas gifts for family members while we waited. As promised, we received a text 15 minutes later letting us know to return shortly and reply to let them know if we were coming back or if they should not hold the table for us - this was such an efficient process!! I texted them back and we made our way over. They have space for a couple larger groups in the back, which you can't see from the entrance, and which are also blocked from the cold of the front door opening every time people came and went. They have a cool cutout table area for groups larger than 8, and then our table comfortably sat the 6 of us. I ordered the veggie burger in a lettuce wrap - it was on par with my favorite veggie burger served at Great State Burger in Seattle. The lettuce wrapping was a little less sturdy than what they use at GSB, but it was good all the same. Others in the group ordered the original, the buffalo, the elk, poutine, salad, and wings. The overall consensus was that it was good. I'd return in the future on another trip to Banff! read more

We got seated in 20 mins and beat the long waitlist. These burgers were so perfectly cooked and packed with delicious flavors! So so so happy that we ended up choosing this place for dinner. Our waitress was so kind and even gave us recommendations for what to do around town. We will miss the food and customer service here! read more
Eddie Burger + bar is a loud but small restaurant. Their tables inside are a little too tall to sit comfortably but it is not too bad. I would have liked to sit outside but there were no tables available. They DO NOT do take out in case you happen to come at a very busy time. The restrooms are disgusting as I had just come up from Moraine Lake and their environmentally friendly out houses were cleaner than the ones here. The service is quite good as they have many servers who are friendly and are ready to serve you. The hostess is very friendly! Their build your own burger menu is a little messy in my opinion as it is a reusable menu with a white board marker. It is kind of dirty as there are marks of residue all over the menu. I personally don't want to get my hands dirty before eating. I understand that it is environmentally friendly but it just didn't work for me. You can choose from a variety of meats or no meat such as elk, bison, AAA beef etc. Cheese of course is extra! There are also set burgers that come with sides on their other menu that you can choose from that will be a better deal but I decided to build my own! Sides are not included for the build your own menu. You should expect the wait time for your order to be longer as this restaurant does serve a variety of meats and each is cooked differently; took about 30mins to get our burgers. The burger itself is amazing. I ordered a bison burger with sesame seed bun, goat cheese, sauteed mushrooms, raw onions, romaine lettuce and chipotle mayo sauce. I would give the burger a 5 out of 5 stars as it was delicious and catered just to my liking as I was able to build it. I had no sides as I felt that the burger was filling enough for me! One of my friends ordered fries and the other ordered Cesar salad. Both said that it was too much for them! Overall, if it wasn't for the rest room situations I would have given this place a 5 out of 5! Hope your future visits will be as tasty as mine! read more

This place has great reviews for a reason. It was extremely busy but we didn't have to wait to be seated. It's a cute but small restaurant. It took a little while to get the food but it was well worth it. I had the Eddie Classic and it was easiest the best burger I have ever eaten. Fries and onion rings were great too! read more

Went to this place for lunch seeing the good reviews on yelp. There was 30 mins wait time. After a while when we didn't receive any text from them, we went there and they said that our reservation was canceled based on guest's request. We were surprised as we did not cancel and on further checking, got to know that they had our phone number wrong. We were worried that we had to wait again but they accomodated us within a couple of minutes. We ordered a veggie burger with poutine and truffle fries. The food was decent - not out of the world. I was expecting more from this place considering the high prices. The place was really small and the service was okay. read more

Orders were hot and fresh from the grill. We ordered Eddie Classic, Eddie cheeseburger and fries and strawberry shakes. Burgers tasted fresh, they were huge and the sauce tasted really good. The meat was so tasty and juicy. Whoever grilled the patties did a great job keeping the juice alive on the meat. Strawberry shake is a must. Also the fries were really good. Pricey. Burgers about $20. read more

Maybe we missed out not having burgers. We went here for a light lunch. We split the poutine and hot tots. Both were yummy, but nothing to write home about. Husband had a shake, which he liked, and I had the Caesar cocktail, which was fine. Like others have mentioned, the space is very small. The table next to us had too many people at the table, and they were spilling over on to us. It wasn't a comfortable space to hang out, in my opinion. They do have several TVs. read more
Everyone was raving about Eddie's Burger + Bar so we figured we had to try it out. We decided to split a milkshake and a burger for dinner (does it get any better?!) and went with the Grass Fed Rancher Burger - Alberta grass fed beef patty, bacon, sauteed mushrooms, swiss cheese, romaine, roasted garlic aioli, brioche bun. It was really yummy - not too greasy, and paired great with the milkshakes - chocolate for the record. They split our milkshakes into 2 glasses without us even having to ask (both complete with their own dollop of whipped cream and chocolate shavings - yay) - awesome service. The fries were crispy and yummy, the husband ate the entirety of the basket before I could get into them to do any real damage. *I learned there's a rule in Canada where you MUST cook ground meet completely through in order to comply by their health and safety standards. I'm more of a medium-burger-eater so personally felt the burger was overdone, despite it being intentional. This is not individual to Eddie's, either - all over Canada, you can only get your burger cooked one way. read more
What can I say. I'm thrifty when I eat out (most times). This burger joint is pricey. My two boys and I had the cheapest burgers on the menu and the bill still came to $60 without a tip. The service is friendly, the place itself kinda small with some seating around the corner by the washrooms. The burgers are good but $60 dollars good ? Maybe if we would've tried the more expensive options. You could easily be into it for $100 if you add a beer to it. You get your choice of fries, yam fries or a salad as a side. Give it a shot if you got some cash to burn through. Otherwise your better off going to Mcd's for a Mac. read more

A small, lively burger bar offering large portions! We ordered the poutine ($12) & Caesar salad ($13) and both came in huge portions. The salad was fresh & well dressed. The poutine, made with vegetarian gravy, was topped with a good amount of cheese curds & crispy, fresh fries. We also ordered a Caesar to drink which was a tad too spicy but overall, friendly staff & quick service. read more

So this spot is much smaller than expected so if you want to come, I would suggest going early. If you have a big group than I wouldn't suggest this place. There were six of us and we luckily got a space in the bag but it was hard getting in and out of the space for us. The food was good and I had some very juicy chicken here. My husband had the truffle fries and they weren't good and they stunk up our table so bad. They actually smelled very strongly of greasy fish too and we had to get them away from our table, so just a heads up. Other than that, we really enjoyed our food. The waiter was also very friendly. read more
We sat at the bar (took about 30 mins to get a table) friendly bartender! Highly recommend when you're in Banff to go out of your comfort zone and order an Alberta special. We shared the Elk Burger and the Bison. I preferred the Elk Sided with a poutine & sweet potato fries Unnecessary to upgrade your fries to the poutine lol it's a big meal, we didn't finish it all, especially after a beer. Next time I'd get the house salad (it looked delicious! The burger bun is what stopped this place from getting a 5 star, we both found it dry (I took off my top bun, not worth the calories.) Around $65 for two local draft beers and two burgers with sides. read more

It's a typical little bar type place. Cozy and casual for a drink with friends. Clean and decently spaced. Food: The menu consisted of burgers, wings, poutine bar, and other usual bar style side options (fries, deep fried pickles, onion rings). We tried the Eddie Mac Burger, a side poutine - added montreal smoked meat on top, Apple Butter BBQ wings and onion rings. The food was fresh, nicely plated and very tasty. The burger was cooked to the perfect medium well and the toppings weren't overly done. The poutine was delicious and adding the montreal smoked meat on top made it tastier. I only wished that the pieces of meat were bigger or more was added. The wings were perfectly fried and covered in just enough sauce. They were generous with the amount as we counted at least 10 big wings (ordered 1lb). It also came with a side of creamy dill dipping sauce which we loved so much, we were using it to dip our onion rings in. The onion rings were large with thick slices of onion and the perfect amount of batter. Nothing was overly oily either. Service: Excellent! The waitresses were kind, quick to seat us and take our order. The food also came out quite quickly. My favourite part of the service was the attentiveness and speed of the waitresses refilling my drink. Before I even noticed I was on the last sip of my coke, the waitress would come over and ask if I wanted a top off. They consistently did this the entire stay and I was never without a drink - I drank more coke than any one person should drink in one sitting... That's what I call great service! I'd recommend this place for good burgers and bar eats. The place was quite packed with drinkers as well so it's safe to say they serve well as a bar hangout too. read more

We came here after having skied all day and looking for a quick, casual meal to fill us up before calling it a day. It's a small place but since we were eating early we managed to get a seat quickly. The layout is a little awkward and it can feel cramped but I found that if you sat in the back it felt less so. You can either choose from one of their burgers or build your own from the toppings provided. The menu burgers are definitely the better value. I had yet to eat some Alberta beef when I came here so it only made sense to order a hamburger and that turned out to be the right decision. The burger itself was pretty big and the patty was very juicy. It had a good balance of toppings. The onion rings I got with it though were a little underwhelming. They were too greasy and lacking in crispness. Service was fast and friendly. Our waitress made the effort to make conversation with us and brought out our orders quickly. She also seemed to know the menu really well and did a great job with making recommendations. If you're in a mood for a hamburger then this is the place to satisfy that craving. Eddie's Burger Bar is the perfect spot to come for a quick burger and beer when you're in Banff. read more
