Banff town is great for shopping and lively acres ski scene
For mid run food I love the Temple Lodge. It can be crowded but there always seems to be just enough room.
At the bottom of the mountain I was disappointed with some of the restaurants closing quite early but the options that remained open were still enjoyable.
Few options to eat out and have a beer.
Après ski not as good as france
Also has different slopes for different levels of riders ..
Highly recommend
