The Fitzsimmons Pub — Restaurant in Whistler Resort Municipality

The Fitz pub is iconic. Great craft beers and equally great craft cocktails. They don’t have coors light on tap.. they only serve fresh BC local brews, and rotate their taps every time a keg is empty. That said they’re careful to balance the available options. There’s almost always an IPA, a lager, a sour and so on. They even carry great locally brewed Non-alcoholic options which is important too. It’s the place to be if you’re looking for a local feel. The regular patrons are mostly ski instructors and hospitality professionals who are eager to chat and share their knowledge of the town and attractions. A friendly and inviting atmosphere always. It’s an excellent place to get aprés ski drinks or before and after whatever it is you’ve been enjoying in Whistler. They are a genuine pub and don’t have a kitchen, however the bar snacks are not to be missed. From locally produced pepperoni sticks and beef jerky to popcorn and candy they’ve got something for all types of hankerings. The staff are people who you’ll make friends with immediately. People who genuinely care about and want to enrich your experience. It’s a great place to meet people who are genuinely passionate about the town and everything that it has to offer.

Brought a customer into the pub for a Caesar as I heard, they were phenomenal here. We waited at the bar for 10 minutes at least before I looked over and saw the serve sign over the bar far right side. My bad, however the bartender could’ve mentioned it. Then after waiting in line for a 5 minutes , which is fine, my turn arrived…she ditched me and proceeded to go to the people who sat down after next to us at the bar and served them directly?? Looking at the interaction, obviously she knew them. However, now I’m at 20 minutes waiting for a drink. There are 20 people in the bar. OK, I’m not stressed about time. I’m looking forward to our drinks. I finally ordered drinks and when we got the Caesars, we were so disappointed. For the cost, they were not loaded like we were told they would be . there was an olive on a toothpick thrown in the drink. That was it. They tasted OK but not phenomenal by any means The customer I had brought there Commented about the service and the drink being both subpar. As a 25 year Local, I was a little embarrassed. Bartender was nice enough. She just was not on her game that...

Talk about a great way to just hang out and feel like you are Whistler at a pub. Its a smaller pub, likely can only fit about 30 people or so. But a lot of locals at the pub which is great for getting that Whistler hang out feel. Lots of great craft beer on tap. In fact even some from Lower mainland like the Trading Post were there on tap. Prices are reasonable. Bartender was quick despite the busyness. I got my first pint within 3 or 4 minutes of sitting down. I did ask for some nuts etc. I was surprised that you charge for that, but they were better than most bars and in the end I was super happy with the overall value. Wife had glass of wine as well. All in all we have been to this pub now about 6 or 7 times and everytime had a blast with many reasons to...
