About
At Banff Ave Brewing Co., you can get your hands on a range of tasty beers and hearty food options. They make their own six to eight, plus other local brews, so you can try something different every time. The poutine with bison chili is our favorite item here - the chunks of meat are meaty and flavorful, and the gravy compliments the cheese curds perfectly.Reviews
Banff Ave Brewing Co. offers a mix of experiences, with some patrons enjoying the good beer and pub fare, while others found the food mediocre or disappointing. Highlights include attentive service, large portions like the Buffalo chicken sandwich and bison burger, crispy onion rings, well-presented flights of beer for tasting various brews, and unique concoctions like Wild Warden Raspberry Sour and PB&J beer. The atmosphere is cozy with indoor seating and an outdoor balcony overlooking Banff Ave. Some visitors recommend trying different beers from their extensive menu while others suggest avoiding certain dishes like the friend chicken dinner.
Nice little brewery, even bought a souvenir there.
The food was great, the beer as well.
I got the mac and cheese and I was happy with it. The portion size seemed a bit small at first bud cheese and pasta usually is quite filling!
As a starter we had some smoked olives. Not my favorite but okay as a small appetizer snack.
I got a flight which was really nice presented. Some of my beers I didn't like, but here I ordered outside my usual taste.
If you want to take a souvenir with you definitely check out their shop. I myself got a nice hat.
not impressed with a friend chicken dinner for $22 that made me sick all afternoon. The coleslaw had dijon mustard in it, so for me was inedible, chicken was good but the batter was soo thick i couldn't eat it, gravy was good. husband had a $28 steak sandwich that was a pretty small portion and for some reason came with salad not mentioned on the menu and was covered in a much hated vinegary dressing. server was great, but we wont be back based on the food.
I had a very nice time dropping in and trying a few drinks here. The appropriately named 'A Good Surprise' gin drink was tasty, and so too was the 'Smoked Cherry Porter' a delight to taste with its deliciously intense smoke flavor. Should I return to Banff, I would like nothing more than to come back and try even more of Banff Ave Brewing's unique concoctions.
The waitress suggested us the buffalo chicken sandwich and calamari. We love the sandwich so much, the chicken was crispy and the sauce was just delicious. The drink was okay.
Such a gem of a local brewery. We went 2x during our week visit in Banff. The service was very attentive and they kept our beers full.
The atmosphere is cozy and everything you would hope for in a local Canadian brewery. Tons of indoor seating and outdoor balcony seating, overlooking Banff Ave.
They have flights of 6. The PB&J beer was insane! I recommend the mac n cheese, and the falafel wrap.
