I absolutely loved all the food at this restaurant! It's perfect for vegans and vegetarians—this place is a true treasure! The ambiance has a classic hipster casual vibe. They offer outdoor seating that is also pet-friendly. The service is fast, and you can even call ahead to place your order, which isn't something all restaurants in Banff offer.

Wow, I was truly impressed! I met up with friends from the UK, and since they prefer vegetarian food, I decided to take them to Nourish. I was definitely not let down! The dishes were vibrant, colorful, and absolutely delicious! We started with nachos, and I chose the 'Mac N Squeeze'—it was fantastic! The restaurant has a unique atmosphere that sets it apart from any other place I've visited, and the staff was friendly and full of energy. I highly recommend Nourish Bistro to everyone! Thank you for having us!

Being plant based makes dining while traveling difficult, but finding this gem of a restaurant absolutely made my day. Nourish Bistro is a fun funky establishment with an incredible menu that is plant, vegan and veggie friendly. We ordered the gyoza, vegan poutine, tempura broccoli and the king kong noodles. I asked for a recommendation for cocktails and was not disappointed; ordered something with watermelon (can't remember the name) and it was ridiculously delicious! Each of the food items had a wonderful flavor profile, but the gyoza was my favorite. The service was superb and the ambiance was welcoming and warm; maybe bring the volume down on the music, but still enjoyable. The highlight was that I am also traveling with my pup and he was welcomed INSIDE...this overwhelmed him, but he behaved. We will be back. Definitely recommend this restaurant if you're in the Banff area!

During our Banff adventure, we stumbled upon Nourish Bistro and decided to give it a whirl. So glad to know that there is a vegan/vegetarian establishment offering in town. We ordered the King Kong noodles and were able to share it between the two of us. We both felt satiated as the portion was a good size. I gotta say, I was a little off put about the mandarins addition, but they were declicious little bursts of citrusy goodness. I'll be adding this zesty twist to my own dishes from now on! The only complaint I have is the optional tofu. At an additional cost, we had to give it a pass, as the price felt a tad steep. It would be a dream if the tofu could be included given you're already paying $30. Vegans want protein too! We eyed a lot of the dishes around us and defintely wish we had more time to visit again. Defintely the next time we are visiting!

We 're enjoying four days in Banff and have found ourselves brunching and lunching at Nourish every day so far! My husband is vegan and this place should be your first stop if you are interested in plant-based or vegetarian bites and delights. On our first visit, in the midst of a seven mile hike, I enjoyed the smashed avo which was a delightful DIY avocado toast with four pieces of toasted focaccia and lovely toppings to try and find your perfect combination. Ask for the hot sauce as it brightened every bite. My husband enjoyed the v(egg)ie bowl with chickpea scrambled egg pancakes. The butter mushrooms and garlicky sautéed spinach were the highlights of this dish for us! Day two we came in for a late lunch after a spa day and I enjoyed the ramen salad with extra dressing while my partner-in-crime devoured the green lentil soup and the signature mushroom ravioli. The bread was a lovely accompaniment to the soup as well. We finished our meal as the sun finally emerged from behind the clouds with the nutella cheesecake which was gone in an instant. The service here is so gracious and attentive that we will definitely be back in before heading home in a few days!
