Chic Pea - Whistler

Lovely mountain restaurant right on the slopes in Whistler. This is a good coffee stop - they do delicious cinnamon buns. Or stop for lunch - the chick pea stew is amazing. It gets busy if the weather is bad or cold as it is not huge, but worth the stop once seated. This is self service and is very efficient. Good washrooms facilities too. Lots of seating outside if the sun is shining and it's a sun trap. This is a really cosy stop compared to all of the other mountain restaurants.

Stopped here with our instructor for a snack brilliant cinnamon buns and what views from the outside patio. Serves beer too in case you fancy a quick one during your ski down the mountain.

Smaller than the other on-mountain venues but more quiet and less crowded. Limited menu is perfectly adequate. Love the Moroccan stew and the cinnamon rolls.

The Chic PeaGreat little hill cafe on the slopes at the top of the Garbanzo Express chair lift.Smell the cinnamon buns before you step inside makes them irresistibleWell worth trying rather than the larger roundhouse if you are after a quick lunch stop (to maximise skiing time).

The Chic Pa does not get as busy as the main restaurants on the mountain so it is easier to get a seat and the food is good. The cinnamon buns are especially good!
