The prices were way too high - the house wine is $16 for a 5ounce glass - and they were out of house wine and $20+ seemed to high for a 5 ounce glass. The beer on tap was flat. The menu was limited...nothing really ecited us. Both dinners were likely the worst dinners out either of us have ever had. I recently returned from a week of self-catered dining on a ski touring trip - every dinner was at least 10 times better than this dinner at the Juniper. We opted to enjoy dessert at home - we couldn't face further disappointment.

We went to Juniper Bistro in Banff with friends to celebrate Valentine’s Day, and it was an excellent experience. The food was delicious, and the service was great. I had a grilled portobello burger with a fresh salad, and I loved it. My friend enjoyed modern-style huevos rancheros, her partner chose a traditional dish, and my husband had poached eggs with meat—everything was amazing. The coffee was also very good. Definitely a place to return to!

We had a wonderful dinner at the Juniper, we shared king mushroom scallops, winter salad with goat cheese, smashed whipped potatoes, and the salmon roulade. All were delish, and the service was excellent! First time for us, won't be the last!

Great food and great service topped with a beautiful view! Breakfasts and dinners were delicious. We enjoyed being introduced to the haskap berry both in the mocktails and in the cobbler. We will definitely eat here again next time we are in Banff.

Appreciate the plant-forward menu (vegans) but we would prefer more flavour intensity. Great server in Mitch.
