We spent our family Christmas Dinner here, having the 3 course menu, and it was incredible. So much food and the food was excellent roast turkey, gravy and vegetables, just what you want on a snowy Christmas day after skiing. Dessert was also delicious, plus they provided cookies to eat while you waited for dessert. Only comment would be not a very large range of drinks available to order. All in all a great Christmas Dinner and would recommend.

Loved finding this restaurant. It was a great barbecue menu - lots of wonderful slow cooked meats. The staff were fabulous - friendly and efficient with great personalities. It’s different - you grab a seat and then ordered at the counter. Food was really good. My family had the beef short rib, pulled pork, chicken and some terrific sides - loved the corn bread. You can also do take out. Great beers and wine. Loved this place. Locally sourced food and owned by local people in BC.

Nice vibe going on in the restaurant, liked the fact that the table/seating areas were not all the same. We ordered from the bar, the Grants platter for two. My friend did want to order a burger too but I said this was going to be more than enough food for the both of us.
As on the menu, it contains beef brisket, half rack of ribs, BBQ dry rub chicken wings and BBQ pulled pork. Served with BBQ beans, BBQ sauce, jalapeno corn bread and we had some vegetable and fries as sides. When it arrived, it was huge!!! I knew we couldn't finish it but wasn't going to give up without a fight!
I really enjoyed the chicken wings and ate all those along with the ribs. The cornbread was a little different but still tasty. the beans kept my mouth moist as there was so much food. I think they can offer this platter for up to 4 people and maybe decrease the size and the price for 2 people, as I don't like wasting food. They do provide a take-out box which I filled with our leftovers but I couldn't see any homeless people in Whistler.

My husband and I came here because of all the positive reviews- which is soooo confusing, it feels like it was ownership or staff who had written them. We both ordered a Benny to share. I got the bacon and he got the pulled pork Benny. The bread they serve this on is so hard, a butter knife really can’t cut through it. The spinach was horrible, it had a very fishy taste to it. I would have given this feedback to someone, if any staff bothered to do a quality check. Also, a single Caesar is $13!? Very over priced and incredibly underwhelming.

This restaurant was highly rated and I’m a sucker for great brisket. Sadly, everything was a HUGE disappointment! The brisket was dry, cold and tasteless, we saw the ‘chef’ cut open a bag to put it on our plates. Potatoes were stone cold, cole slaw was beyond bland and more wilted than the wilted kale. The only thing that I would recommend was the cornbread and friendly service! If you’re looking for a great meal out, keep looking!

I had the unfortunate experience of trying the bacon breakfast sandwich today. Previously we had been for breakfast and the chicken and waffles were amazing! However, that’s too much food for me without my husband to share so I went for a more reasonably sized option of the egg sandwich. I forgot to specify I like my eggs fairly well done, I have never been a huge fan of runny eggs. I never imagined it would come so undercooked that the entire two yolks would end up in my hair, on my shirts/pants and all over the table. I was thankful it was winter and I was able to throw on my coat and cover up most of the mess, however, getting egg yolk out of long hair has its challenges. Needless to say, I think I am turned off egg sandwiches for some time. My daughter had the kids waffles and was pleased. My sandwich minus any yolk was pretty good as well. As always the service was good but wish the kitchen was a little more attentive with cooking times.

Nice relaxed atmosphere and straightforward menu. The team are very positive about offering a gluten-free option for everything on the menu. So I chose what I felt like, which was a burger. What I hadn’t understood was that adapting it to gluten free just meant removing the bun! ( and charging the same) They graciously gave me a portion of coleslaw to compensate, when I challenged this, but I would have preferred a gluten free bun. The burger was good although the horseradish sauce was bland. It was unclear how the other dishes were adapted to GF on the menu.

Beware if you have allergies - they don't pay attention. Ordered the mashed potatoes as a side for my wife since she is allergic to carrots. Explained this to the person taking the order (not the server) several times and even confirmed with the cook behind the counter. Her order arrived with potato salad, full of carrots, instead of the mashed potatoes, which were ordered. Order from a server, not from the counter.
The place is extremely loud, to the point where it is uncomfortable if there are more than a dozen guests.
Tolerable for a quick bite, but there are far better places to eat right next door and across the street.

Excellent food and awesome decor.
Great beer selection. Food portions are quite large, bring your appetite. We ordered the shared platter for 2 and brought back enough for a hearty second meal as leftovers.
One thing though, in the era of the “order and take out” please advise customers that are dining in how to proceed with orders for food and beer. Although there is a sign to order here, it’s not a given that it’s the same for people that are enjoying at the location.

Went here while we were staying in Whistler and loved the casual counter service in what is a fancy tourist town. The food was delicious and full of fresh local veggies that was exactly what I wanted after a week of heavy food.
I had the beef brisket one night which was awesome and then the next day came back for the falafel for lunch.
Will definitely go again next time we're in Whistler.

We have eaten here twice. The chicken shawarma, lamb wrap, fried chicken sandwich and meat platter were all good. Be warned the portion of the meat platter ( known as farm platter) were massive for two people, easily can share with three! The prices are reasonable! You walk out very full! The staff were all very personable. I’d high recommend this place, the only dish none of us liked was the pulled pork, it is dry and way too smoky! Other than that, it was really delicious !! Highlight for me were the chicken wings ( crispy on outside and moist on inside) and the corn bread ( pure butter delight).

Food and vibes were good at this restaurant but we were unaware that it was an order at the counter/seat yourself situation but with regular restaurant pricing for Whistler. We probably would have chosen a full service restaurant instead, but we walked there and decided to go for it. Unfortunately no outdoor seating was available, which seemed like one of the best parts of the experience. We ate inside- most order burgers or sandwiches. Good food, but price it differently if you are not offering table service.

Had an amazing meal here!! Love the atmosphere, has a good apres ski feel to it, informal and comfortable. Varied menu with choices for everyone. Try the smashed and fried potatoes, they were delicious. Come here with an appetite!! Restaurant is a simple concept, choose what you want, go up to the order deck and place your order, tell them your table number and they’ll bring your food and drinks to you. Very fast service and all the staff were super friendly and helpful.

This morning, we attended the restaurant for breakfast as the reviews seemed to indicate the food would be excellent. We both ordered the Bacon Eggs Benny. The potatoes were cold and lumpy, the kale was not cooked properly and the toast was over done. When we mentioned the potatoes to the server, she simply took our dishes, off loaded the potatoes and brought the dish back telling us we could eat the remaining food while the potatoes were remade. This, in itself, was unacceptable. Once the potatoes were returned, we noticed that there was a significant amount of dill in them. We mentioned this to our waitress who brushed it off. Our eggs were not cooked as ordered either. There was no attempt by the waitress to rectify this issue. We certainly would not recommend this restaurant given this experience. This was a birthday breakfast which unfortunately was over shadowed by this experience.

Delicious! A must in Whistler! Easy to find and cheap paid parking outside. We dined here twice in August 2020 with our baby and we were made to feel most welcome both times. We absolutely loved the food, pulled pork, chicken and the delicious poutine with potatoes was my favourite! The coleslaw was also amazingly fresh. Very friendly staff. We live it and will always visit when in Whistler!
