The Keg is a great spot, and I’ve been visiting this location for many years during my trips to Whistler. However, the bathroom on the middle level is consistently dirty, in massive need of renovation, and honestly grosses me out. I’ve raised this issue annually for the past five years, but nothing has changed. It’s disappointing and doesn’t reflect the high standards I associate with The Keg Restaurant Chain. That said, the food and service are always reliably solid.
