    Southern comfort eggs Benedict
    Evan C.

    I really love southern brunch places so I really wanted to try this place out. I got the southern comfort eggs Benedict. What is it? - sweet cornbread bottom - southern chicken fried steak in the middle - poached egg with hollandaise and also Cajun sauce - fried potato hash on the side. It is a really visually compelling combo, but unfortunately it does not quite deliver. - the eggs and hollandaise and Cajun sauce were good. Although this is hard to screw up - the chicken fried steak wasn't crispy. It was also a bit tough to cut, and the taste was just OK, kind of bland nothing special. - the sweet cornbread by itself was good. - the problem is that it doesn't really come together. The cornbread is too soft and the steak hard to cut, the combination makes cutting the Benedict stack not work - everything just falls apart. I think while I love the concept, the English muffin as bottom would have been a much better foundation for cutting. Sorry didn't try anything else.

    Pork belly
    Pearl R.

    I really enjoyed this Cajun place. They serve brunch and dinner but I came later for late lunch and ordered their pork belly, Cajun soup and shrimp Poboy. I really enjoyed the poboy a lot. The server for our table recommended getting the shrimp and it was really good. However, I wish the pork belly was a little more flavorful, it was too sweet. Overall, a really good Cajun place in downtown Banff! And the price is really good for the portion they give here.

    So I'm a little torn about this place. They have a very large menu, the prices are reasonable compared to what you see in downtown banff (still expect to pay $5-10 more in CAD than you would anywhere not in this park), and service is friendly. However, I would say the food is a little underwhelming. I ordered a side of soup, cornbread, and some popcorn catfish to try. The popcorn catfish was super disappointing - the nuggets were incredibly small and had little flavor. Considering this is supposed to mimic Cajun-style food, I would imagine this hit far from the mark if you're going for authenticity. The soup and cornbread were yummy - not amazing - but given that they were appetizers, I would have preferred my main dish to be the standout. The mocktail I had was pretty good though it's hard to mess up anything that sweet. It was also incredibly busy when I came so there's no shortage of business. It might be the tourist effect of being located in Canada's most famous national park but I might skip this place next time I'm in the area. Nice views of downtown banff from the corner table though!

    Ate here multiple times while we were in Banff! Service was great and food was wonderful! I'm gluten free and was thrilled to have so many options to pick from! Also LOVED the New Orleans flare. A very unexpected find but wonderful place to grab breakfast!

    Chicken and Eggs Benedict with Cajun Potatoes
    Claudia A.

    The place itself looks so interesting and unique! The servers are attentive, and know the menu like the back of their hand. Food is mid. Maybe it's just what my bf and I got, but it wasn't anything major to talk about. I got fried chicken breast eggs Benedict, but I wish the chicken itself had the Cajun flavor in its breading. However, the jalapeños on it definitely gave it a nice kick. Potatoes were aight. Get the hot chocolate for sure, especially if it's cold outside.

    Cute vibe and great service. We were seated right away on a Tuesday morning. We ordered the Pork Belly Benedict and the Green Eggs & Ham omelet. Both were delicious! Great portion sizes and decent prices. They had a good selection of hot sauces as well.

    Very good place for breakfast. We had a tour guide recommend this place and so glad he did. Food was delicious and Tyler our server was so friendly. We enjoyed the veggie omelette loaded with fresh crunch vegetables. Two egg with bacon breakfast. Toast was super good. Be careful with the hot sauce ;)

    This is the first place we ate in Banff! We were able to sit outside early in the morning and enjoy our breakfast beside the peaceful mountains of Banff. The server was fantastic and prompt! He didn't skip a beat when we asked for food recommendations and hiking recommendations too. The food was fantastic and kept us extremely full throughout our 12 mile bike ride! We will definitely be going back this week!

    Cajun crab and Shrimp  boil
    Beverley W.

    The shrimp and crab were pretty good but the rest of that plate was meh. Rice had the feeling like it wasn't fresh and we didn't even get bibs, so keeping your clothes clean could be a challenge when you're fighting with a mighty crab. Server was okay, but when it comes to the place, the tables felt quite small. When four people are at the table, plates, tools for grab legs, drink... There were barely any space to move

    Fried green tomatoes (ok)
    Christine N.

    First impressions: cute and kitschy... with New Orleans type decor... the plastic red and white checkered table "cloth" felt a little unnecessary. Made it seem a bit cheap. The noms: *Taste of N'awlins: my brother's order. It was a lot smaller than he anticipated so he finished it like an appetizer... but it was good. We all shared a bite of each other's dishes. *Shrimp po'boy: my sister's order. It was good, but the ratio of bread to shrimp wasn't ideal, so she left off the top bun and ate it like an open sandwich. The Cajun fries were decent. Didn't have much Cajun seasoning on it, and the fries were a bit sad and limp. The fries were also dark, which sometimes happens when the oil hasn't been changed in a while... or they could be burnt.. I don't know for sure. *Ribs: my order. The ribs were good (sticky and tender, just like I like it... though not fall off the bone... still satisfied a craving). The dirty rice was also good. The slaw was terrible. It didn't look or taste anything like slaw. It was bone dry (see picture) and look like something that was dumped out of a pre-mixed bag of slaw from the grocery store, but lacking any kind of dressing. *Hush puppies: good, but a bit dry *Fried green tomatoes: nothing like what I usually order... the fried coating was so dry it crumbled off the tomato and into the dipping sauce. *Andouille Mac and cheese: super disappointing. A bit watery (see picture) and not cheesy at all. In conclusion: despite the promising reviews, I was super disappointed. Can't recommend it.

    To our surprise we found Cajun food in the Canadian Rockies. Nice ambience. Able to sit outdoors and enjoy the fresh crisp air and people watch. The menu is extensive. Service is helpful. We enjoyed the gumbo and jambalaya we ordered accompanied by cornbread. Good amount of serving.

We've had the pleasure of visiting fantastic bars in a lot of places but Rundle Bar is special. The service level is as good as it can be. The staff makes you feel like you're in their home. They're incredibly attentive but not annoying. We had great conversation with many of the them and they genuinely care about you having a memorable experience. The views on the patio (alfresco terrace) are as epic as it gets with views of the breathtaking mountains everywhere you look. It's been named the best patio in Canada for years and you will see why when you walk out of the beautiful Rundle Bar onto the patio. The menu is made up of classics and signature creations. I had the Ember which is an old fashioned variation made up of high quality spirits and an infused maple syrup it was one of the best cocktails I've had in a long time. It didn't hurt that it came with a smoke show. It was so good that I have to create a separate post with photos and videos vs. detailing it here. Trust me, it's gorgeous!!! Banff has been on my list forever and I finally visited. The Fairmont Banff Springs hotel was equally a place I needed to experience and it didn't disappoint. The Rundle Bar was a bonus I wasn't expecting so make sure you make time to visit this magical place when you finally check Banff off of your list.

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!

He had booked my bus transport from Banff to the airport in Calgary, and while I waited for the bus I had time for breakfast before the bus arrived. Right next door to The Canoe the Otter Hotel offered meals at the on-site restaurant, Good Folk. I was looking for a light breakfast, and Halle promptly brought me a menu and some water.
