We heard the food was delicious so on our way through Whistler, we decided to make the stop. Such a great choice. The staff are very friendly and brought the food right to our table. Salmon is always the choice and we were not disappointed!...More
Excellently presented cafe on the ground floor of the cultural center. The food was delicious, I can't remember the name of the desert I sampled but it was fantastic!! Great cozy place to enjoy the ambience of the cultural center. Bravo!
I have eaten here several times for lunch or a mid-day snack and am always pleased with the freshness, flavour and appearance of the food. The cafe offers a modern take on traditional first nations food. And it seems that it is still one of Whistler's best kept secrets as there is always a table to be had and friendly service. Check it out.
After enjoying the exhibits and tour through the cultural centre, we were ready for lunch. We enjoyed salmon-chowder and bannock. It was the best laughter I ever had!
