Where To Après On Resort
January 11 2021
Après (ä-ˌprā): social activity (as at a ski lodge) after a day's skiing.
Any time spent exploring our snowy slopes is already a guaranteed good time, but the perfect cap to your day is to follow it up with good music, food, and drinks with members of your bubble. Après is all about reliving the best moments of your ski day over a cold, frothy one.
To make it easy to go directly from slashing turns to raising glasses, our selection of slope-side bars and restaurants are only steps away from the snow and have some great food & drink specials to sweeten the deal. What’s more, you can now book your table in advance, as well order food online in advance, so it’s ready to go when you get there. Here are some of our favourite spots to grab a cold one after a day on the slopes.
On Mountain
Revelation Lodge
Catering to all of the typical post-ski cravings with a classic Canadian caesar, a local Mt. Begbie beer, poutine, and spectacular views, this mid-mountain lodge has it all. Soak up the sunshine on the stunning patio overlooking the mountains across the river and the valley below, or simply warm up with a hot chocolate inside. Find the Revelation Lodge perched above the resort village at mid-station of the Revelation Gondola. Enjoy $5 Stoke Lager pints Monday to Friday, as well as double discounts for season pass holders Monday through Friday (as well as 10% off on weekends).
Mackenzie Outpost
Fully licensed, Mackenzie Outpost is the ultimate après with a view. Settling in with what is easily one of the best burgers in Revelstoke and a brew is an experience you won’t want to miss. Conveniently located right beside the top station of the Revelation Gondola, you can savour a Stoked Mountain Ale while soaking up the view of the mountain itself.
At the Base
Mackenzie Common Tavern
With a wide range of microbrews on tap, a newly renovated interior, and plenty nibbles to choose from, the Mackenzie Common Tavern (AKA the Mac) is home to après good times. Plus, every day feels like a weekend down here, with Honey Badger shots for $4 and cans of beer $5 all day. The Mac Food Truck is serving up the food too; the hand-tossed pizza is the perfect shareable après snack (enjoy 2 for 1 pizza on Fridays).
Rockford Bar | Grill
If you’re on the verge of being hangry, the Rockford is the place to go for cold drinks, tasty food and lots of seating. Their menu features a wide range of options to keep everyone happy. Daily après specials include a $7 poutine; add a shot of Fireball or Burt Reynolds for $6, or if you're lucky enough to rock up on a Monday afternoon, their wing night can't be beat. Delivery to town and room service is available for The Sutton Place Hotel guests during select hours.
Revelstoke Mountain Resort Liquor Store
Sometimes the call of the hot tub is too strong. To get back to your accommodation ASAP, you can get your après to go from the Revelstoke Mountain Resort Liquor Store. While there, we recommend stocking up from their wide selection of B.C. wines and craft beers (everything tastes better when it’s local right?). Open daily in the winter from 2-7pm (Friday - Sunday) and conveniently located right beside The Rockford Bar | Grill, you can stop in on your way to the parking lot, or quickly dash down from your room in the Sutton Place Hotel.
