Cliffhouse Bistro

AB T1L 1B4

4.5 (219) mountain dining
Closed

Perched high atop Mount Norquay at the end of the chairlift, Cliffhouse Bistro treats guests to sweeping panoramic views of Banff and the Canadian Rockies. The alpine venue complements its expansive mountain lookout with a selection of drinks, snacks, meals, and fresh bites like artisan flatbreads.

While commenters find the mountaintop experience breathtaking and praise previous visits as awesome, many express reservations about the chairlift ride due to a fear of heights. Others raise concerns regarding the steep overall cost of visiting Banff, physical fitness requirements, and variable factors like weather, seasonal timing, and wildfire smoke.

  • Ride the chairlift up Mount Norquay to access the bistro.
  • Order the artisan flatbreads alongside drinks while enjoying the view.
  • Be prepared for chairlift heights if you have vertigo or fear of heights.
  • Factor in high seasonal costs and check local weather and wildfire smoke conditions before heading up.
