The drink was made nicely--no fuss, no shortcuts, just done right. The seating was comfortable and well laid out, and the ambience is hard to beat. Warm lighting, classy atmosphere, and the kind of views you only get at the Banff Springs. It's the sort of place where you can actually relax, talk, and take in the surroundings without feeling crowded or rushed. Overall, a solid experience. Good drink, great setting, and absolutely worth stopping in if you're at the hotel or nearby.

The fondue came with potatoes, cornichons, and bread cubes. We ordered a salad, fries, and the prime rib, perfectly cooked to a medium rare. The food was delicious. Our server was delightful.

However, the people next to us ordered various cuts of steak and those looked unbelievable!

We, of course, sampled more Canadian beer and poutine! The chicken poutine was not something I thought I would order, but it was on special and why not? The Chicken Poutine is incredible and full of flavors that are out of this world. We shared the chicken poutine and I loved Kevin's Beef Dip and we shared a side of the traditional poutine - so good. Melty cheese curds, delicious and hot fries and the gravy...take me back right now! The fish and chips were yummy and light and the perfect lunch portion. We loved our visit to Rose & Crown and it's definitely some of the very best food we had in Banff!

It seems like quite the après ski spot, but I don't think any of the people there actually went skiing that day. It was basically a huge frat party on the rooftop with canned beer for purchase and a DJ. If you're looking for a nice, classy spot to watch the sunset - this is not it. We were crammed in the corner next to their barricaded section of the rooftop and didn't stick around longer than it took us to finish the drinks we bought downstairs.

From where the hotel is located you can not take a quick walk downtown so we came here. It was definitely a good choice. We were immediately greet by the smiling-friendly hostess who sat us quickly. The ambiance around this area was wonderful. The HUGE fireplace was very special but not lit yet. The overall appearance was soothing with comfortable tables and chairs. Our server came up and brought us some menus and took a drink order. Just a lovely young lady. It did not take long for our food to be delivered... Sone fish tacos, chicken sandwiches and salads. Food was excellent and we all enjoyed. Everything was fresh and tasty. The pricing was also favorable. I had the fish tacos which were excellent. These were as good-fresh-tasty as anyone I had every had. Everyone else was very satisfied with their choices. (There are a few pictures attached to this review.) After a long day on the train coming here, sitting back and enjoying the atmosphere and food was a grand treat. This part in the hotel was wonderful alongwith all other areas of the Rimrock.

Salmon was well done and the polenta was very creamy and really good. Only problem was I asked for the salmon to be under done and I don't think they did that.

Admittedly, I'm not much of a drinker but I'll have some once in a while and Bear Street seems to have a pretty good selection. I tried a Vietnamese Coffee Stout which I enjoyed. I'm definitely more of an eater than I am a drinker and the eats at Bear Street Tavern are excellent. My party got 2 pizzas and a salad and we enjoyed it all. To start we got the Tavern Bowl. It's a bunch of different vegetables with a Tahini Miso Dressing and kimchi on top. All the different textures and flavors worked really well together and the salad served as a nice break between bites of pizza. The Wheeler Hut pizza has mushrooms, ricotta, truffle oil, pesto, and mozzarella. If you're a fan of truffle flavor you'll enjoy this pizza. As soon as it was brought out I could already smell the truffle. The Mediterranean has olives, feta cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, red onions, chili flakes, spinach, mozzarella, and balsamic glaze. A little busier than the Wheeler Hut, but it was equally delicious. I'm not sure which pizza I liked more. Both pizzas had a fantastic crust with some char. Substantial enough to stand up to the toppings but still a little doughy for a nice chew. The char gives a nice crunch as well. Service is quick and friendly and the prices are fair, especially in a tourist area. I definitely recommend Bear Street Tavern.

We've been there for breakfast, lunch, and supper on different occasions, and every single visit has been consistently solid. The service is always good--friendly, attentive, and never overbearing. You can tell the staff take pride in what they're doing. Seating is comfortable with a clean, modern setup that makes it easy to relax no matter what time of day you're there. And the food? Always delicious. Whether it's a morning meal, a mid-day stop, or a full dinner, everything we've ordered has come out well-prepared and full of flavour. They don't cut corners, and it shows.
