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.
Had a very nice coffee and something nice to eat after vsiting the Cultural Centre. Make sure you allow time with the completion of your visit to enjoy this place.
I enjoy quality food ingredients and this little cafe offers just that. They have a small but varied menu with local and First Nations cultural inspiration. They are friendly, generous, quality, clean, and reasonable. I'd love to go again, but we were only in Canada for a short visit. I loved the berry iced tea because it had wonderful natural flavor that wasn't masked with sugar as some are. The cedar-planked salmon was on display in the case and looked lovely, although we just wanted a bit of snack so we had the fry bread (called bannock here). There is butter, sugar and peanut butter as optional toppings.
We had sampled First Nation food and it was absolutely delicious! Simple and basic but very tasty particularly the Bison Sausages.
