Fernie Hotel and Pub

This is our favorite place at the moment. Looks great with the recent remodeling and the beers are goods and not overpriced. Lunch special during the week is worth looking into!

Stopped by for a pre-dinner bevy. Didn't eat anything but the food we saw looked like it was being thoroughly enjoyed. Service was a touch slow but incredibly friendly and welcoming.

Recent renovations have converted what was once a charming pub into a sports bar. Food is decent and there's a large amount of beer on tap. Be prepared for television screens everywhere you look.

Stopped here for dinner. We had a large group but they seated us almost immediately. We were given menus and then we sat. And sat. And sat. The servers passed right by us to serve others without a single acknowledgment of “be right with you!, sorry I’m busy but I’m coming” etc. They wouldn’t even make eye contact. And we all tried. Didn’t even get waters. They sat many others after us. We waited almost half an hour and decided to leave. Not once did they speak to us after seating us. We should have listened to the customers we met outside who said that the service was bad. The food looked good on the menu. We never had a chance to try so I can’t comment on that. We enjoyed everything else in Fernie but this place.

Decided to take wife N son out for lunch, picked the Fernie because we hadn't been for a while and is walking distance from wife's work. First impression when you walk in is the remodel, it lightened everything up and all looks great. Second thing that I noticed right away is the place smelled clean, not like some bars that have been around forever. The staff were all set up very well for the Covid thing and were on top of the place. Wife ordered steak salad, my son the brisket sandwich, I had to try the fish and chips. Salad was well put together and fresh, the brisket sandwich was a beast! It was all my 6' 5" son could do to finish it, it smelled great and tasted the same. The fish and chips.. we have tried to order on Friday night a few times but were sold out, had to see why, it was excelent, light crispy batter on good size fish filets. We usually stop by Tim's fish in Creston for good fish, now we don't have to drive 2 + hours for really good fish and chips. Oh ya and good to see the mid day regulars ( Alistair and crew) still getting out!
