Whistler has some hidden places with good value and this is one of them. If you come to Whistler for attentive waiters, high quality sushi and intimate atmosphere, you should probably look elsewhere. However, if you like good value (read: reasonable…More »

A great place for apres or to watch the game. Always a good time!

The food seems to be mostly deep-fried, but that's okay after a big day on the mountain. Or maybe that's all I've eaten - the fries are first-rate!

A great patio for apres with some great beers and nachos!

Dubh Linn Gate is a good alternative to the usual apres places because it's less crowded and noisy than the other usual suspects.

The food is authentic and very good, but they charge extra for rice. I've been here twice and they've made the same mistake twice - by adding paneer to a dish that normally does not have paneer. It wasn't stated on the menu either. They made it right…More »

I don't drink coffee so I'm not the fan of the bean. But I do like chocolate (who doesn't?!). Blendz does hot chocolate with real chocolate chips (Belgian!) and soy milk too!

They're probably the only shop with free wi-fi in the village.

The veggie burger is awesome - it's a portobello mushroom with some great fixins on it. The pot pie is also awesome as are the wedge yam fries!

You also can't beat $6 double highballs!

I've only ever had two things on the menu - the Whistler specialty - yam fries and the veggie burger. Recently, the veggie burger changed from a garden veggie patty to a portobello mushroom with some sort of gooey sweet red pepper sauce on top.
