THE DANDELION BY NOURISH
Previously known as the Dandelion Cafe, this restaurant announced that they had been forced to shut down in November; however, thanks to its new partnership with Banff’s Nourish Bistro, they’ve been able to make a comeback! This waste-free, plant-based resto on 8th Street is fun, accommodating and above all, freaking tasty. Everything is made in house, including their “milk” and “cheese,” and they also offer gluten-free options!

PATTY SHACK
Patty Shack is like the quirky new resto opened by the folks behind Ceili’s in Calgary. Messy and piled high with fresh ingredients Patty Shack burgers are made with hand smashed beef and then are covered in sauce. This place is certainly not for anyone unprepared to eat a monster meal.

Mother Clucker is a super sassy spot with a big attitude. Inspired by Nashville spice, everything from their wings to their strips is seriously crispy crunchy and full of flavour. Good luck trying to top this Popeyes!

Seriously guys, from Guy’s Grocery Games to Calgary’s favourite chef of 2020, Pigot’s really won it all.
