Heating Up Whistler
See All Lists
1. Tommy Africa's
When I think of my time in Whistler, I think about 80s night at Tommy's. Every Monday of the 06/07 season you would find me and my friends living it up. Sure, it becomes a meat market and the bartenders are dicks, but somehow the seediness just added…More »
2. Merlin's Bar & Grill
The best part of working at The Wizard Grill was being connected to Merlin's. Is it the nicest spot in Whistler? No. Is it the best place for relaxed apres with friends after a hard day of riding? Yes.
The nachos alone make this a place to go. $20 may…More »
3. The Mallard Lounge
I paid $15 for a Rob Roy here and I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Sumptuously decorated, the Mallard oozes sophistication. When my friend and I went we were the youngest people there by at least twenty years. I great break from the usual Whistler…More »
4. Tapley's Neighbourhood Pub
This is the supreme local's bar. A good dive bar with strong drinks, Tapley's is what it is. My smoking friends loved that they had an inside smoking patio. Pass on the food, it's all made in microwaves. Come for the thrill of mingling with people…More »
5. Cinnamon Bear Bar
This is by far the best lounge in Whistler. Filled with more locals than tourists - strange for a hotel bar - the bar offers great nightly drink and food specials that entice the biggest penny pinchers to come out for a drink or five. During hockey…More »
6. Liquor Stores-Government
I would say this is the best BC Liquor in Whistler. It has the biggest selection and the most knowledgeable staff. Sure, your paying through the nose, but not as much as if you went to a private store.
It loses a star for closing early and not…More »
7. Dusty's Bar & BBQ
Go for the potato wedges and award winning burgers, stay for the Creekside craziness and jugs of Kokanee.
I should really write slogans for a living.
This is the place to start when doing your duel mountain pub crawl. Get some fantastic french toast…More »
8. Blackcomb Liquor Store
The only reason this place gets four stars is because it's open on Sundays. It's great if you have a lot of money to spend on nice wine. For being so tiny, their wine selection is actually pretty good.
This is not the place to go when all you want is…More »
9. BBK's Pub
With a tag line of "BC's Smallest Pub," this tiny pub doesn't skimp on quality. A great selection of wine along with the regular bar drinks. BBK's definitely draws an older crowd (35+) than the average Whistler haunt. My friend and I always thought…More »
10. Black's Pub & Restaurant
Black's is another good Apres bar. Great sweet potato fries. Between three friends we got two orders once. You can get cheaper beer in Whistler, but being stumbling distance from the Excalibur gondola, you can't beat the view.
If you're over 19, and…More »
11. Longhorn
The ultimate Apres place, Longhorn can be quite fun after a long day of shredding the slopes. The patio is massive and has great views of the bottom of Whistler. Make sure to check out the drink special board as there is something good every night of…More »
12. Citta
Whistler, BC V0N 1B4

Canadian (New)
Cittas is mediocre. It's in prime Village Stroll location so it's always packed. The upstairs eating area is ok, although if you're on the Village Square side it can get a bit cramped. The patio is far from being the best patio in Whistler, but is…More »
13. Moejoe's
This club is skeezy in the good way. No one goes here sober. It's not that kind of spot. Moe Joe's is for when you're too drunk to care. They are the last club to kick you out (although I've seen it been done). The music always sucks (except for…More »
14. Brewhouse at Whistler
I was never enchanted with Brewhouse. The food is basically on par with Chili's. I felt the brews were hit or miss. I did enjoy their beer sampler.
I would recommend the brewery tours to those who need a break from skiing. The tour days and time can…More »
15. Amsterdam Cafe
This is the place you go at the end of the fortnight when money's tight and you still want to get your drink on. $10 pitchers of their house brew is the best deal in Whistler when there isn't a Canucks game on. It's located right in Village Square…More »
16. Garibaldi Lift Company
This is by far my least favorite of the three mountain bars (Merlin's, Dusy's and the GLC). The waitstaff was always rude, the food was unimaginative and it was always infested with tourists. The best part of the place by far is the small patio to…More »
17. Buffalo Bill's Bar & Grill
By far the worst club in Whistler. It's just awful. The creepiest guys (I'm talking alpine lifties) are the ones who inhabit this hellhole. I never got hot people would wait three hours in the snow on Wednesdays.
The only cool thing about this place…More »
18. Dubh Linn Gate
I'm actually a little shocked with all the reviews already posted for Dubh Linn Gate. This place notoriously sells the most expensive pint in Whistler ($8 for a Guinness). The food is average, although my friends complained that the meat pie tasted…More »
19. Garfinkel's
I never got inside Garfs. I was about to enter the main room with a group of friends when we realized that one of us was missing. 'Ruth just got forcibly removed.' What? Turns out somebody let someone in through the side door and the bouncers thought…More »
20. Crystal Lounge
This was the go-to bar for most of my friends. They loved it. The drink specials, karaoke nights and $.10 hot wing days.
They loved it. I didn't. I think it smells like the pool that is just out the door. It's dank and fills up to the point of not…More »
Recently updated lists from Skylar L.
Whistler Eats (42)So much good food in this small mountain town. Some not-too-good eats, too. |
Lunchtime in WLA (3)I'm lazy. I hardly ever bring lunch. I also see lunch as the time to escape. So boom: lunchtime excursions. |
My Sweet, Sweet Santa Cruz (9)My favorite college haunts. |
Places I Used to Work (2)So this goes into questionable Yelp territory, but I think I've still managed to stay impartial. |
Let Me Entertain You: LA Edition (31)Okay, I won't entertain you, but you will be entertained. |
Los Angatbles (12)Didn't your mommy ever tell you to eat your veggies? My mommy did. I took her at her word. Maybe a little too much.These are the vegetarian spots that have taken my heart. |
Oh the Places We'll Go (13)The best road trip of my life was through Brtish Columbia, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Alberta and back to BC to catch a cruise to Alaska. Here are a couple stops along the road. |
Shop Whistler (10)On those days you just can't force yourself to get on the mountain.... |
Do(go)nuts (7)I don't trust people who don't like donuts. |
Drinking Time (8)Portland is famous for it's booze. The only fair thing is for me to try to see if it lives up to the hype. Right? |
