Food Scene
Always a great place for lunch and dinner, Murrieta's now offers an outstanding breakfast 10am - 3pm on weekends. My personal favourite is the eggs Benedict, but the avocado smash looks awesome too!

If you are fussy about your coffee, this is the best place to visit! This is the coffee we supply in our properties, and for good reason. My personal favourite is the Rave White (flat white).

A local's favourite and the best breakfast in town. The huevos rancheros are to die for! This place is a 10 minute walk from the apartment, and away from the more touristy areas, so you get a real sense of how the locals live. It is very busy, so early is better. Line ups are common, but it turns people over fairly quickly. There's a great outdoor patio for the warmer months.

Le fournil Bakery
101-1205 Bow Valley TrailExceptionally good French bakery, well worth a visit.
The food here is outstanding, easily the best lunch in Canmore. Healthy food that tastes good! If you like your tea you will love this store, but their coffee is also amazing. A word of warning, it is popular and lineups can be long. You can order online in advance if you prefer.

In my opinion the best restaurant in Canmore for lunch and dinner. Extraordinary food and a great wine list. It is pricey, but lunch is a great way to try their amazing food without breaking the bank. And a secret tip is the afternoon happy hour menu from 3-5pm!

Pinky's Diner at the Canmore Legion is Canmore's secret budget dinner spot! They have the best fish and chips, and the best burgers (bacon cheeseburger my favourite) for a reasonable price (quite hard to come by in Canmore!). Visit on Friday night for bingo, or play snooker/billiards and darts. This is a local favourite, and quite a different vibe to the more upmarket Canmore offerings. Well known food critic John Gilchrist gave it an 8/10!

The best cocktails in town! Small, cosy and with great ambience, this is an excellent place to start your evening. And if you are going to have a drink, you have to try the Tater Tots!

New to Canmore, and tucked away in the industrial area, this brewery is worth a visit if you like craft beer and a chance to escape the crowds. There's no food here, but you can order the excellent Red Rock Pizza and have it delivered to the brewery!

If you like a sports bar with ambience, you'll love this pub! Think wood cabin, with a great selection of beer that changes regularly. I'm a fan of the appetizer menu, the dry ribs are awesome! The outdoor patio is great for views and people watching. Tuesday night steak night is amazing value.

Parks & Nature
A lovely introduction to hiking in Canmore that suits all abilities. Only a few minutes out of town, and a relatively short hike that rewards you with two beautiful blue lakes and an amazing view of the Bow Valley. And if you like rock climbing (either to watch or participate) there's tonnes on the go at Grassi Lakes. This is a popular trail so if you seek peace and quiet, it's probably a little busy for you. But it's a great walk nevertheless, and a great way to acclimatize yourself to our altitude without too much exertion. **NB: The upper lake is closed July 10 - August 31st due to roadwork on the upper Spray Lakes Road. The lower lake is beautiful, it's still worth the walk.

Awesome downhill skiing in winter, with the longest season in Canada. And just as beautiful to hike in summer, especially during wildflower season. If you are here for a couple of weeks skiing you might consider buying the Sunshine card (before December 25, buy from Safeway or SaveOn) to take advantage of 3 free days and discounts on your other days. Sunshine carpark fills up quickly, and it's a long walk from the back of the carpark (or worse, from up the road). There is a free bus from Banff this year (2017), with connections to/from Canmore - definitely worth considering as it drops you off at the gondola on the way up, and you can enjoy some apres ski in Banff on the way home.

Beautiful in winter and summer, "the Lake" is my favourite place to downhill ski. The views from the Summit platter are incredible. You can buy a Louise Card before December 25th and take advantage of 3 free days and discounts on other days; perfect if you are staying for a week or more.

This is a great, easy mountain bike trail that starts from the Spray Valley (10 minutes drive from Canmore) and finishes at the Banff Springs hotel. 17km long, it is double track all the way, making it relatively easy for a less experienced mountain biker. End your trip with a cocktail at the Banff Springs or Park Distillery, then put your bike on the Roam transit bus and travel back to Canmore in style. Or you can utilize the services of one of the many bike transfer companies in town (they'll take you to the start of the trail, and pick you up in Banff), or if you feel fit, bike back to Canmore via the Legacy Trail. Time your trip on the bus for the morning if you can, it gets very busy!

A fun paved biking trail that runs between Canmore and Banff. At around 16km long, it's a good workout, especially if you go from Canmore to Banff (more uphill). Hire bikes from Gear Up on Bow Valley Trail if you don't have any with you.
