Banff après-ski
Banff is a party town, with numerous après-ski bars to choose between. The Rose & Crown (202 Banff Avenue; tel: (403) 762 2121; roseandcrown.ca) serves Canadian beers and cocktails, and has live nightly music. For a Wild West-flavour and late-night partying, head for Wild Bill's Legendary Saloon (201 Banff Avenue; tel: (403) 762 0333; www.wildbillsbanff.com) – the brave can even try calf roping and line dancing as part of the entertainment.
Eating out:
Banff has an eclectic mix of eating options, whether it’s affordable pizza, burgers or sushi or something more upmarket.
Evelyn's Coffee Bar (201 Banff Avenue; tel: (403) 762 0352; www.evelynscoffeebar.com) is a great place to grab a homemade muffin and a hot drink while waiting for the ski bus.
For something more substantial, taste Albertan AAA-grade beef at Melissa's (218 Lynx Street (tel: (403) 762 5511; www.melssteak.com), which offers a good-value steak dinner. The award-winning Maple Leaf (137 Banff Avenue; tel: (403) 760 7680; www.banffmapleleaf.com) sources fresh seafood from both Canadian coasts; diners can also sample specialities such as bison stroganoff or organic game from local farms.
