Sandtraps The Canmore Golf Curling Club

First of all, the food was pretty good. Prime rib, salad, Brussels sprouts and several of us had fish and chips. But the service made it an awful experience. Our server was a young woman. Very LOUD. Very intrusive. Very fakey. And the first time she referred to the two middle-aged women at our table as lovey our jaws dropped in shock. When she did it again and again, one of the women asked her to stop calling her that. The server didn 't apologize or understand how offensive and triggering that term can be coming from a total stranger. She 's not some adorable character from back home in the Maritimes. She 's a young woman serving locals and tourists in Alberta. Do NOT be overly familiar with guests. And when someone asks you not to call them that, you do NOT justify it as just the way I am, just the way I talk, that 's how we are back home. NOPE. Your customer just set a solid boundary, and your server walked all over it in a very intrusive, triggering and offensive manner. Then she was clearing plates and nearly snatched one of our plates before we were done. When she came back with our take-out containers, she asked that guest if they were still stealing the coleslaw ! Seriously unprofessional and unkind. Then she undermined the status of our guest of honour, whose birthday we were celebrating, by minimizing his professional international expertise. Just a terrible terrible experience in very poor, thoughtless, customer service. Ugh. No thanks. Get some serious training and don 't make everything about you.

The 4 of us had a very nice breakfast here. Great patio and views. Public is welcome, this maybe on of Canmores best kept secrets for breakfast. I'm thinking lunch and dinner are decent here also.

Food and service is hit and miss but mostly it is a good experience. Certain servers are excellent and some are greenhorns. Certain chefs are really good but some don’t seem too professional. The “boss” appears lacksadaisal. Can’t beat the views and if you aren’t in a hurry, it’s a beautiful place to dine.

Lovely dinner or lunch spot to enjoy some sun on a patio with a beautiful view of the golf course and the mountains in the background. Our server was very friendly and quick to serve us even though she was really busy with other tables. Our food came only 10 minutes after placing our orders on a busy day, so that speaks to how committed the team is to excellent service and keeping customers happy! I had the spicy BBQ burger here. If you really like spicy food, ask for some hot sauce on the side the jalepenos and the sauce won’t be enough for you. I also loved the presentation of the side salad here!

If you a dine on the patio, the views are gorgeous. We had the fish and chips and it was delicious!
