    We stopped in at the Canadian Brewhouse with a pretty large group while in town and had a great…read moreexperience. The place has exactly the atmosphere you'd expect from a Canadian sports pub. Hockey and soccer were playing on the big screens throughout the restaurant, the room was lively without feeling overwhelming, and there was plenty of space for our group. One of the fun touches was the hockey stick décor. I kept things on the lighter side and ordered the steak bites with a side salad and balsamic dressing to avoid the extra carbs. The steak bites were tender and flavorful, and the salad was fresh with plenty of vegetables. We also shared an order of fried pickles that disappeared quickly. They were crispy, hot, and delicious. The tzatziki sauce was a great touch to make them pop. Everyone else ordered something different, including burgers, poutine, fish and chips, and a Caesar salad. There wasn't a single complaint. The portions looked generous and everyone seemed happy with their meal. I had a few bites of the burger (without the bun) and really enjoyed their flavor. Fries were good too (I stole a few, no carbs if I didn't order them right?) What really stood out was the service. Our server was friendly, attentive, and incredibly fast, especially considering the size of our group. She checked in often, kept drinks topped off, and made sure everything arrived correctly without ever making us feel rushed. If you're looking for a casual place to watch a game, grab a beer, and feed a group without any hassle, this is an easy recommendation. I'd definitely stop in again.

    We went to the Brewhouse during a team tournament because they were offering two free slices of…read morepizza for players. In addition to the promo slices, I ordered three kids' meals--one for the player and one each for his sister and brother. The kids' meal is advertised at $7.99, which includes one main, one pop, and one dessert. However, when the bill arrived, there was an extra $3.99 charge for a pop. When I questioned this, the server told me that because the kids' meal was for a player who already received the free pizza, the drink was no longer included. This policy was never explained beforehand. I didn't ask for a free drink--I ordered a kids' meal as advertised. The free pizza slices are very small and not enough as a meal, which is why I ordered the kids' meal in the first place. With the added charge, the kids' meal became $11.98, which is no longer a kids' meal price and is not what was advertised. If there is a policy that changes what is included in a kids' meal when a promotion is involved, it should be clearly communicated before ordering. This experience felt misleading and left a very negative impression.

    I visited Bear Street Tavern based off of a recommendation by a coworker. Beer and pizza is usually…read morea winning combination and Bear Street Tavern is a great example of this. 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.

    Food was really amazing! Service nice and fast, we were seating outdoor, so was easy to talk…read more I don't know if there was inside music.

My running group that I was traveling with brought our party to the Elk & Oarsman for a quick dinner. This place is a lodge-style sports bar that is located in the heart of the Town of Banff. There are TV screens all around that show live sports and a large fireplace. You can see the beautiful mountain scenery from the rooftop patio. It was nice of Elk & Oarsman to accommodate our large party. The service was great here. Elk & Oarsman is a sports bar that serves good food. The menu has a variety of pub fare favorites like bar snacks, sharables, salads, flatbreads, elk dishes and burgers. I was starving and ordered the Buck Hunter because I wanted to try something with elk in it. This elk & bacon burger patty comes loaded with condiments on a brioche bun. I really liked the tasted of the smoked mayo on my burger. I also got a Broccoli Cheddar Soup on the side. Banded Peak Brewing is a popular beer made in Alberta that is named after a mountain in the Canadian Rockies. I grabbed their Amber Lager to pair with my dinner. There is a fun lively atmosphere here at Elk & Oarsman. I was only here for brief time, but enjoyed it. This is a solid place to check out if you like sports and good food.

    We loved it here! Great menu with a lot to choose from. Our waiter from New Zealand was amazing. So…read morekind and attentive. The food was good. Beer was cold. Awesome rooftop and the sports bar was packed with World Cup fans watching games. Super cool spot.
