Wow. Just, wow. When I walked in here, I expected to find the same old thing you typically find in a western Canadian tourist town... an uncreative, too-expensive chocolate shop that makes most of its money off of sucker tourists. Was I ever wrong!!

Maybe it's just the clean, crisp air relieving me from my perpetual allergy-induced clogged sinuses, but everything seems to taste better in Fernie. Bread from the Loaf is no different. It's a cute little bakery, offering fresh Artisan bread and…More »

  Update - 12/31/2011

Since I've been here last, they have expanded their selection of bulk items to include different kinds of flour, beans, peas, popcorn, sugar, and the other odd item. The bulk items are inexpensive in my opinion ($33 for 25 lbs of popcorn, for…More »

My fiance and I are in Fernie for the holidays (visiting family) and I wanted to try something new for lunch.

Everything on their menu sounds fantastic, and I was having a hard time choosing between a couple of the options. Our waitress was helpful…More »

Went here for the first time today with my boyfriend and his family. I had fun! The service was not exactly speedy, but everything we ate was delicious!

Mmmmm, delicious cheese!

Le Grand Fromage is a great place if you're a cheese lover like me, and like to try new kinds all the time. They'll let you try slices of pretty much everything in stock until you find something you like. When the manager…More »

Went here for breakfast on my way out of town. The food was great! It seemed like they took the best stuff from around town and made a meal out of it. Bread from the Loaf, local meat, etc. The bacon I had here was the only good bacon I've ever had in…More »

Just thinking about this place makes me drool all over my keyboard. Big Bang is to bagels what Superman is to humanoids. Seriously.

The bagels here have a very distinct taste, sort of sweet and salty at the same time. In my attempts to replicate…More »

Last year for Christmas my fiancé got me a spa package from Lizard Creek Lodge. I'd never actually been to a spa for anything other than a haircut so I was both excited and nervous -- I didn't really know what to expect.

The package included a body…More »
