Easy Eating in Banff

Great food and attentive service. Good atmosphere and enjoyable night out. Hopefully the overcharging we all received on our side orders was an honest mistake.

One of the best meals I've ever had!

Service was great, food was even better! Went for elk Wednesday with the family and tried almost all the elk options on the menu. Great atmosphere and great view. 10/10

Happy Hour - lunch

April 2022 Had a late lunch with our kids during Happy Hour. There are some great specials during this time (3-5) S&P wings I would say are likely the best I have ever had, perfect crispy outside but juicy inside and full of flavor. Our...waitress Amy deserves a shoutout, she was superb! If you get a table by the window it has a a very pretty view of the mountains and what's happening on the busy street below.More

Good times at the elk

This was probably one of our favourite restaurants we visited during our stay in Banff. The staff are very cheerful. Fun to people watch if you get a table near the window. Good selection of pub food served hot and tasty. Great place to watch...sports. Many drinks consumed here! We recommend the wings, burgers and ribs. We liked it so much we came back twice.More

Had a Blast

We had the best service from Amy! She was so fun, hilarious and outgoing! Made us laugh and recommended the wings with a side of all the sauces and spices we wanted to try! Haha! Definitely recommend! Also I highly recommend the Winterberry Gin Smash!

Hi there, were from the UK and are looking for an evening meal with entertainment on New Year's Eve. Your place looks great but need to ask if my 16year old son is allowed to spend the whole night there with us? I understand there maybe some licensing issues regarding age and evening times? We're trying to book somewhere asap to tie in with our vacation so a speedy response to this would be much appreciated. Many thanks Kevin

Hi Kevin, I was just a patron of the pub but since I live in the Calgary area I gave Elk and Oarsman a call. They stated that 16 year olds can go into the bar but only up until 10 p.m. Good luck with your New Year's plans... More
