Unfortunately I don't like American pizza. And we eat pizza at this place. But the person who I was eating with enjoyed the food very much. Kind waiters. Happy place!

My husband is hard to fill up- when we left here we were both so full we were ready to burst! There are a lot of menu options, even for picky eaters, and you get a good sized and delicious portion. Worth every penny! Also, the "idiotade" was delicious!! We would definitely go back.

The name if this place didn't sound like it would be a very nice place to eat but it was nice and fun and you have to try the pizza. The pizza was great the crust was not to soft and the sauce was just the right amount of tomato sauce. We ordered the large pizza and we had left... More

Recommended by someone working at Swiss Chalet Motel. Really liked this place. Lively, but not too noisy. Very friendly server (from Manchester). Pulled pork sandwich on a bun with big portion salad. Very good locally brewed beer. Comfy bench seating against the walls. Seems like a real hangout for the lively locals.

This is great pub with an interesting menu. They have lots of healthy options. Their pizza is especially tasty! Tastes like everything is homemade. Friendly servers! We stopped in on the way to and from Banff! Great find!

The town was completely deserted - no cars - no people on the street. Well, everyone was in this one restaurant, and it was packed. The food was great, and the atmosphere perfect to relax after skiing. Just get there early enough to get in.

Found this neat pub by chance on a pit stop enroute to the Okanagan. Not just your regular pub by any means. Nice food, nice prices, really nice people and a great patio. Definitely stopping here on our way back to Grande Prairie, AB.

We read the reviews and chose the Woolsey Creek Restaurant but after looking at the menu prices ($32/steak, $42/venison) we decided to try The Village Idiot. The reviews led us to expect a younger crowd (we're 48 and 53) but it was mostly our peers and a fun and lively atmosphere. Our server Jen was fabulous - friendly, fast and... More
