Delicious food, large restaurant, good for everyone. Terrific view, with outdoor decks. The outdoor decks have propane heat and you can get blankets to stay warm. Most of all the food doesn't let you down.

This kitchen is very close to our condo. You can walk there, pick up your food and bring it back to the condo. Great healthy, fresh and quick! Check the hours before you go, I believe it’s Monday to Friday 9 to 5 kind of thing.

Bridgette is a popular restaurant in Calgary, so they opened one in Canmore. Sometimes they’re only open five days a week so you need to check the times. Also, they have a happy hour where food is reasonable and drinks as well, and it’s just a short walk from our place.

This is a nice little coffee shop that also has charcuterie ingredients. And it’s next to the front desk in our complex, in the Bow building.

We took the snow bus, it's called the Columbia Icefield Adventure, and went on the Athabasca Glacier. Very fun. It's very majestic at the top of the world, as there is one of two tri-continental divides in the world within sight. (The tri-continental divide is where the point where the rivers go to 3 different oceans.) You can ask where the other one is . . .

You can hike up to the top of Sulphur mountain, or take the gondola up. Great views, you can have a meal up there. And you will probably see some goats.
