Delicious. Hot and fresh and sweet and tasty. Got the basic cinnamon and sugar one. It was my first beaver tail and I will definitely be having more of these.

This was a nice surprise to find in Banff - my husband and I each tried a Beaver Tail and loved them! It was a bit pricey for fried dough with toppings, but when in Banff..... :-) We ended up going back the next day for another, that's how good they were!

Had our first of hopefully many Beaver Tails today. We went half and half as we couldn't decide what to have. All 4 as amazing as each other! They're not too heavy so easy to eat a full one. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Will be back tomorrow for more!

After walking an evening meal off, a Beavers Tail is a great way to enjoy the essence of Banff. Tasty, sweet and great value for money. An excellent snack or dessert to share.

Tasty pastry, had one with cheescake and caramel (avalanche) but had to share it as I found it too big and sweet to eat alone, Still very nice

I had planned on taking my better half here as he loves a similar treat (elephant ears- deep fried pastry with a variety of toppings to choose from) and it was well worth the stop. First time he had the cinnamon sugar and enjoyed it, second time I chose the maple with chocolate drizzle which we shared and it was... More

If you are Canadian or, have travelled Canada, you will find this to be a typical Beaver Tail franchise as far as the tails go. It does,however; have an above average location. Go for the classic Cinnamon first if you've never had one before.

Wasn't sure what to expect and i'm still not sure if i liked it or not. Deep fried pastry with your choice of sweet toppings. Tooth achingly sweet BUT would definitely try it again.
