Jason the Pie man, at the Kanata Inn. The fish and chips there are surprisingly the best I have ever had.
Also, Black Rock pizza is very good.

Both laughable.. Unfortunately a lot of our restaurants seem to have an issue with consistency. Rumrunner never disappoints.

The Mexican place in twin Butte is awesome and not far at all. Cinnamon bear in coleman is great for a sandwich or sweet treat

Rudy's in Bellevue is new and supposed to be decent.
Rum Runner for sure.
Great Pizza at 5 rivers in the crowsnest mall - take out
Jason the pie man- most people like.
Ben Wongs chinese in Blairmore is a local favourite for sure.
Pure country in frank is great for wednesday wings
Chris's restaurant in Coleman is old diner style that won't disappoint.

Just my opinion- probably something i have forgotten....

We just ate at Rudy’s a few days ago. The food was great and the prices weren’t bad at all. I’d go there again for sure.

Pure country,

Had a rainy/ snowy fishing day last year and wound up at pure country on a fri eve.
Holy cow what a meal, they had a very small buffet going that gave a choice of a BBQ meat and the Buffett. Home cooked pie for desert, stuffed potatoes.
It was hilarious how much we ate.
Still talk about.

Oldman River Brewing.

Fantastic craft beer and a pretty awesome menu!

I ate there twice last month...the burger was awesome!

That’s what I was thinkin.... might as well start recommending Lethbridge and Fernie restaraunts too.


RumRunner. Consistsant good eats, good service.

Black rock pizza.
Unless it’s wing night or a buffet..... I’d steer clear of Pure Country.

Finger nails in food.... found a food label in the salad twice.... they don’t seem to change their deep fryer grease much.... that’s a flavour feature I can do without.

Anyone try Limber Pine in Coleman that used to be Popeille (sp) and before that it was the Satellite. I was thinking of trying it to see the bar they made out of Limber Pine that was harvested to my knowledge in the Burmis or surrounding area.

Thanks for the info everyone! We have ate at the Twin Butte Restaurant numerous times as well as Waterton but thought we would give the Crowsnest a go as well. We will try a couple places!

Rum Runner hands down, as a bonus hidden gem, the causeway bay motel restaurant in sparwood is on par with the rum runner.
