I honestly hate reserving this restaurant because we have to give our credit card to reserve and it’s impossible to modify the booking because no one answers the phone. Regardless, the food and service is always great. This last time, there was a group of 42 of us and our server Eloy?? was awesome

We were in town for our friends 50th and Beerfest and had a recommendation from a friend in Canmore to try Three Bears. Great service and food. We also asked for the Oilers game and they got it on for us no problem. The décor and ambience is fantastic. Highly recommend and we will be back!

We arrived early but they were able to seat us right away. I really appreciate that the server and kitchen took my food intolerances seriously - there was a concern about cross contamination and they remade my meal. The food was all excellent and even with the remake was quick to come out. Price is on the higher side but the quality and service still makes it a good value.

Twelve days into our trip in Canada, my meal was absolutely More-ish and I believe it should be awarded! Well balanced flavours and of top quality standard. Huli Muli chicken was not just chicken. Staff were all wonderful and PRESENT!! Very cheerful, happy and efficient. Three Bears is a MUST to visit and experience, I wish we discovered it on our first night because we wouldn't of gone elsewhere for the other 3 nights! Keep on doing what you are doing it's appreciated. Thank you L&N 🇦🇺

Had reservations and showed up early, we were immediately seated. Lots of pride!!! Drinks came out quick. Server was nice. We are from Texas. Everything has flavor, it’s why a lot of us are obese 😂. The pizzas we ordered were very good, 7/10. Had a chicken sandwich that was quite frankly the worst one I have ever had in my life. 3 frozen chicken strips with zero flavor and they slather them with some no-flavor sauce. Do better or just take it off the menu. On a positive note, beer was fantastic, tried the Pale Ale and IPA. Great aura to the restaurant but could be better on the food. I don’t leave a lot of reviews but I hope this helps them and those who visit!

10/10 for venue atmosphere, great staff. 4/10 for food. The food has gone downhill since last year, I usually love the salmon dish but the actual salmon was quite small and the creamed spinach was swapped with a creamed kale that was quite fibrous and hard to chew, the dish would have benefited from some roast sweet potato or other carb. Other dishes were sub par, which is a shame I used to highly regard three bears for its food.
