We went here on a recommendation of a local and we're very happy we did. It's upstairs beside the Beavertails, and can be easy to miss... but not once you've been there. I ordered Eggs Benedict, and my husband got a clubhouse sandwich with Caesar salad. Service was friendly, and the food came quickly, before I had the first sip of my tea! I got to say, hands-down the best eggs Benny in town! The hollandaise sauce was deliciously creamy, and my soft-poached egg was perfectly runny. The hash was delightfully non-greasy and done to perfection. The sandwich was layered with thick cut bacon and chicken and all the fixings. The Caesar salad nicely coated in dressing and sufficiently garlicky. All very yummy. Melissa's has great specials throughout the week and fantastic entertainment in the evening. This ended up being our regular breakfast location the week we visited Banff. Melissa's offers several styles of Eggs Benedict, and I tried the Prime Rib Benny, too. Shaved Prime rib on a yorkshire pudding smothered with hollandaise sauce... also to die for. My husband opted for simple eggs and bacon but remarked how little grease there was. We were both super happy coming here. Highly recommend. Thank you to all our severs and the cooks. Each one was a delight, and we're very grateful for all your hard work. We will definitely visit again on our next visit to Banff.

Fab ‘dive-bar’ style pub / restaurant, we went here for a quick spot of lunch, our waitress was very friendly, made sure we had everything we needed and bought our drinks along really quick. I ordered the Beef Dip sandwich which was delicious, the French loaf was light and fluffy so it could absorb the flavoursome dip, the Alberta beef was succulent and so thinly sliced it just melted in the mouth, plus the fries were some of the best we’ve had! My fiancé had the Buttermilk Pancakes with Strip Bacon and Maple Syrup, as well as a side of Poutine…They were HUGE! Each pancake was the size of a dinner plate but so light and airy, they were the best pancakes he’s ever had, we ended up having to take half away with us though as they were so big and the Poutine was SO good, with a really thick gravy and perfectly melted cheese curds. Definitely a great place to go if you want a tasty, filling meal.

This place was randomly picked for family lunch, we missed checking for wheelchair accessibility as my parents have difficulty climbing stairs. As we reached we realized there was no elevator there. We somehow managed and my parents with support were able to climb the stairs. The atmosphere was very warm, cozy and not very crowded. The server were welcoming and kind. The menu has a lot to offer. We ordered Rib eye steak with yam fries and caesar salad, Rib eye steak with french fries and coleslaw, fish and chips and deep dish vegetable pizza. Rib eye steak and Caesar salad were the highlight of the lunch. Fish and chips was good but deep dish pizza was very average tasting. The dough of pizza was soggy and bitter tasting. The food was served piping hot and fresh. The service was good and efficient. Not everything on the menu is for everyone’s palate. Overall a good experience for friends and family dine in.

MELISSA'S MISTAKE would be more fitting. I am not sure how the reviews are all that great and honestly I'm not one thats very hard to please. But the food here is just bland and really lacks flavor!! sucks for the price you pay and what you get really doesn't add up. We tried their deep dish pizza their homemade tomato sauce plain sucks canned sauce would have done the job.. their roast beef dip and sandwich lacks flavor.. Calamari really fails to deliver felt like it could have used more seasoning or a better dip. Cauliflower bites are also whatever another item that lacks flavor. their wings are decent no complaints there. I did enjoy their sirloin steak that was the only part of the meal that was well done. And the tomato parmesan soup is worth trying. The washroom smells as if you were using a portable washroom in the middle of norwhere.. but their service here is decent no issues there

First time visiting their current location in Banff Ave., but we’ve been recurring customers at their old/original location. I have to say, I think I prefer their old location, had a bit of je ne sais quoi or at least nostalgia for me. But their current location is spacious, good views and variety of seating. We had the prime rib eggs benny, and the farmers breakfast. Eggs were cooked perfectly, the prime rib was very tasty, hollandaise was very complementary and everything was on point for the farmers breakfast, although the bacon was a bit too salty for our taste. Service was friendly, prompt, and attentive. My main complaint was that we were charged $3+ for one package of maple syrup. The additional cost was not communicated upfront, and that seems a bit steep even taking consideration of rising costs etc… but aside from that, we left satisfied.

It wasn't their choice to move to the current location, but in terms of atmosphere, the previous spot was a lot better as quality food was the focus and the place felt cozy. Customer service was great as always. However, it's understandable for the cost of a rib eye steak, especially nowadays with inflation and many other factors, but I am trying my best to support businesses. Unfortunately, it was disappointing again. Yes, again. Chose rare, but my steak was overcooked. There was an after taste odor from the meat and so please don't serve it. Overcooking it doesn’t hide anything but creates a risk for your customers. Last year, I rave to my family to go. Sadly, all three of us had food poisoning from the eggs, and I didn't mention it then. I am heartbroken, to say the very least, as I had great memories back in the days (pictures attached).
