Dine

In the heart of Canada’s premiere national park, our chefs curate a bounty of garden-fresh and sustainable regional produce and handcrafted ingredients to create award-winning dishes. This is truly modern Canadian cuisine: food not only inspired by our stunning surroundings, but by the fresh-faced, hunger-making joy of mountain life. Long considered one of Banff’s hidden gems, the Juniper Bistro is a local favourite and proud recipient of multiple titles in the annual Best of the Bow dining awards.
