Once inside though, it's clearly off the map for tourists. When we dropped in for dinner at 7pm on a Thursday, it was well populated with locals, mostly old timers and probably veterans. They have a small but comprehensive menu. Their stars are the burgers and the donair. I'm posting the menu here because I couldn't find much internet presence for the restaurant (thus the lack of tourists). I had the donair, which had the traditional Canadian sweet sauce on it. Being American, I've never had a gyro or doner kebab like that, but it was delicious. Wife had a chicken pot pie, which she said was good. We split a small poutine for starters and it was fresh and very good. The chicken pot pie came with a sort of Greek salad with a sweetish Italian vinaigrette. Wife really liked it. Mine came with a surprise - a huge mound of french fries. Shouldn't have done the poutine too! Everything was delicious, the service was prompt and super friendly, and the restaurant was comfortable. Prices were fair for being a tourist town and the large portions. Worth consideration by more tourists!

Great food at a fair price and the best Legion food in Canada. And Logans a good friendly guy.read more

It's always hard to find a good breakfast place that has good, fresh food and also good coffee. The…read morehash browns here are clearly made fresh (not frozen and reheated) and I would definitely recommend getting them "loaded" with chipotle mayo, green onion, tomato and jalapeno. The Huevos Rancheros is delicious, I got it 3 days in a row! They made it with a base of black beans and hash browns on a tortilla and then once the eggs and cheese are on it they broil it to toast the cheese and edges of the tortilla. The eggs were always a perfect over-easy and the chipotle mayo from the "loaded" has browns goes well with the dish. The staff is all super friendly and recognized me as a return customer by my second day there. They have toys they hand out to kids when families come in and the place seems very family friendly. In addition to the inside seating, there's a great patio that has a wonderful view from it. If you're here during the summer, I would definitely recommend sitting outside and enjoying the view and great food!

Unfortunately, we got there around 10, many of the baked goods are sold out. This is a hidden gem, great food, service and supports local farmers from the tea and coffee served to the flavor in the food.

They were huge, incredibly flaky, buttery, and as fresh as anything I've had from any bakery. Honestly, some of the best pastries I've ever eaten.

Bare Bistro by Fedora's Cakes & Bakes is proof that the best food isn't always found on the busiest streets. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Banff. Bare Bistro by Fedora's Cakes & Bakes

We also got the Rustlers Breakfast, which comes with eggs, smoked ham, bacon, sausages, and pancakes. I especially enjoyed the pancakes. They were soft, fluffy, and light. I didn't feel too heavy even after eating two of them. The only thing is that the waitress asked us whether we needed maple syrup and we didn't know that there was an extra charge for it. It ended up costing us $3.

We ordered to share: Bison carpaccio: 8/10, the large pieces of black salt(?) was overwhelming the bison, but otherwise very unique and worth trying Burrata salad: 100/10, super refreshing and unique palate of thinly ribboned squash covered with tarragon vinaigrette and burrata. Smoked trout doughnut: 8/10, interesting combination of sweet (donut, lemon glaze) and savory (smoked trout, herbed Crème Fraîche, everything bagel seasoning, pickled shallot) Individually: Strip sirloin: I didn't have this one but 10/10 for work of art presentation. Huge piece of steak though. Roasted chicken: 9/10 myself and one other got the chicken. Tender and well seasoned with sweet and spicy harissa honey glaze and chili crisps. It looked like they gave half a whole chicken to her and the other half to me, huge portions. Probably could've been 3 meals. Peyto's ribs: 9/10 had to get it for the touch of maple paprika. Seared ling cod: 9/10 it's the only portion that remotely made sense for a single person and didn't end with leftovers. The dimly lit atmosphere at Brazen is perfect to unwind in after a long day of hiking and exploring. The portions are generous and flavor profile recommendations between appetizers, mains, and drinks well explored. Highly recommend making an advance reservation to try!
