block kitchen and bar

wonderful discovery. great food, good atmosphere, friendly service but not pretentious! we were told that they had just opened - we're thrilled to talk about this new restaurant! worth coming to the block if you are in the area.

a new favorite. amazing food, great service, intimate atmosphere. definitely recommend dessert and the fries are to die for

really good food. second day open! very well organized, the waiter who served me was prompt and produced my food in under 10 minutes, the steak was done up quite nice in a peanut butter oil that brought out the smooth flavours in the dish. i had a side order of salad, my only complaint is that the bowl that the salad came in could have been larger. i mentioned this too them and they said that this would be taken under advisement.

over all i'd give this restaurant a shot, amazing staff, great fusion food, affordable prices, great drink selection. open late!

block kitchen and bar. great late night spot! amazing food and drinks, friendly staff! just an all around amazing experience! definitely will be returning!

food is excellent although i haven't tried much of it. the cocktail menu is tremendous i highly recommend the b&b. the service can be a little slow at times but it's worth the wait. happy to have a new restaurant/bar in our little mountain town.

gluten free options, intimate and trendy atmosphere!. block is a new restaurant in banff offering an intimate, trendy atmosphere. the decor, menus and signage is awesome!

the drinks menu included cocktails, beers, wine and hard liquor. the only drink missing was cider, but the owner assures me this will be there shortly!

the food menu had lots to offer including appetizers from $4! as a coeliac, eating out can be difficult, but this restaurant has many options, which is always a pleasant surprise!

after our dinner, we headed out to the other bars, ending up back at block for the relaxed atmosphere.

i recently visited banff and decided to try the block kitchen and wine bar as it recently just opened! the burger was amazing and our server was so attentive, thorough, and knew so much about the wines! this is definitely my new favourite restaurant in banff and i will be back every time i come for a visit! xo

have been waiting in anticipation for the opening of this gorgeous wine and tapas bar. let's just say we were not disappointed. if you want to quench your thirst on a hot day the watermelon splash is just the ticket, comes w an awesome wedge of fresh watermelon. food was amazing, very impressed with the sauces! the block is absolutely nailing it, a must when in banff

what service?. great concept was really excited about arriving in banff. food was good but over priced in comparison to quality and quantity you can receive at other great local spots in the bow valley. wouldn't have been as disappointed at that factor had we received any level of service. our server was only looking after two other couples and yet we waited for menus, to order a drink, again for food order even though we were ready by the time he finally came around for our drink order.
the food came out in a timely manner and he did a quality check. which was great but that was the last we saw of him. no follow up, no offer for anything further, no eye contact for a chance to get his attention, no bill. waited at an empty table for 20 min before finally walking out (we did calculate our bill and leave cash) right past him actually without him even batting an eye that one of his unbilled tables just left.
will not be returning. rather, supporting the other local businesses.
new is no excuse for an unattentive server.
