A Foodies Guide to Where to eat and Drink in Whistler in 2019
"Flakey, savoury, and incredibly delicious, Peaked Pies are the real deal and a true Australian foodie export. Patrons will want to test out their steak, bacon and cheese, chunky pepper steak, butter thicken – and if you’re feeling brave enough – ground kangaroo. Address: 4369 Main St #105, WhistlerPhone: 604-962-4115"
"According to Tripadvisor, the best takeout in Whistler is local bakery, Purebread. Great if you’re looking for dessert (it’s our fave spot for a sugar fix), however not-so-great if it’s a hearty meal you’re after. Our attention therefore goes to #2 on the list – Peaked Pies."
"If you’re on your way in or out of Whistler, definitely hit up Fix Café at Nita Lake Lodge before hitting the road. They’ve got every kind of gourmet coffee you’d like along with every kind of dairy alternative, plus some great gluten free baked goods. Neighbourhood: Creekside"
"This little café, also connected with Nita Lake Lodge, is small but they have a couple of decent options to grab and go. For example, their soba noodle salad is delicious, and they usually have a vegan muffin or two. View their current menu here."
"Summary: Cafe with an awesome selection of fresh smoothies and juices, and fresh, fast, breakfast and lunch options. Location(s): Lake Placid Road, located in the Nita Lake Lodge. Why it made the list: Great juice and smoothie offerings."
"A 100% organic sourdough bakery and cafe located in Creekside, there’s no better place to grab a coffee and a baked good before heading up the Creekside Gondola. While you really can’t go wrong with anything in their display case, their sourdough cinnamon buns are a must-try. Although I’ve never met a cinnamon bun I didn’t like, the ones from BReD are something special."
"Tucked away in Creekside with a long established bread following, Bred by Ed is a micro bakery specialising in organic, naturally leavened sourdough products. They are 100% organic and plant based, offering fresh bread loaves (both sweet and savoury), cinnamon buns, cookies & dang good coffee."
"Besides their delicious cinnamon buns, muffins, and croissants, they make the best crepes. I had one of the dessert crepes for an afternoon treat, but they also make savoury crepes perfect for lunch. There’s limited seating inside and out, but most people do take out."
"In the Village but off of the beaten path, the scent of freshly baked buns will draw you in. Its location offers an inner Village oasis from all of the action. The patio at Lift is a year-round delight."
"Follow the smell of sticky cinnamon buns down the village stroll and you will find Hot Buns Bakery. Stop in for a coffee and bite before heading to the mountain."
"Delicious food, delivered right to your room when the moment strikes. Tempt yourself with Fairmont Chateau Whistler’s culinary In-Room Dining offerings, available throughout the day and evening."
"Braidwood Tavern is styled after the classic mountainside cabin. It’s a friendly space for friends and family to gather around good food and drinks. Braidwood has mastered the après-ski cocktail and laid back vibe — it’s good times all around here."
"For more sophisticated take on apres, the Mallard Lounge at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler is perfect for live music and cocktails such as Watermelon Smash with mountain views and a sizzling log fire. Perhaps for later on, there’s also the chance to try a selection of chocolate from the dedicated Chocolate Bar, or flights of digestifs including Grand Marnier, port and fine Scotch whisky."
"Master mixologists with signature blends of house-infused spirits, Canadian and West Coast food, live entertainment and a spectacular setting have created a legendary following among visitors and locals alike."
"The historic Cypress Lodge on Alta Lake and former Youth Hostel has been reclaimed as a community-run art space, a haven for grassroots creative programming, with one of the best docks and lakeside views in all of Whistler. Walk, bike, or paddle to the site to take in live music performances, readings, exhibits and summer camps."
"Masterfully-crafted sculptures, masks, and paintings invite quiet contemplation and offer visual inspiration on a more contained scale. The addition of the Audain Art Museum is just one more reason to take a cultural interlude in the mountains."
