The original meeting place in Old Yellowknife. The original log cabin building has been refurbished, and is operated as a seasonal (summer) restaurant. Seating inside and on the patio. This is a good place to meet people — seating is communal.

Best fish and chips for miles around — maybe in the country. Fish is fresh and northern. Meals are on the pricy side, but this is authentic Yellowknife, and well worth a visit. Environment is relaxed and casual. Don’t even try to get a reservation... just show up and be ready to wait a bit for a table.

The hippest place to be for local beer and high end pub grub. Noisy and busy, this is the place to be on a Friday evening, year round.

The second of two Vietnamese restaurants. Similar menu to the Noodle House, but a little better ambiance.

Sightseeing

Get a panoramic view of Yellowknife from the Bush Pilot Monument. It’s a long climb up, but the view is worth it. Bundle up. It can be chilly in the breeze up there! This is one of the best places to get a good look at the houseboats on Yellowknife Bay of Great Slave Lake, Old Town, and the City Centre.

If you have access to a vehicle, take a drive about an hour down the Ingraham Trail to Hidden Lake. Here you’ll find a trail to Cameron Falls, a lovely waterfall and nature hike. Takes about 45 minutes.

The Frame Lake Trail winds around Frame Lake, past City Hall and the Legislative Assembly. Parts of the trail require scrambling and climbing over rocks, so be sure to wear sturdy footwear. The trail takes about an hour or more to walk around. But even if you don’t want to hike that far, a short out-and-back walk is also very nice.
