The Pump and Tap - Banff, Alberta

Solid pub food with friendly service and a great atmosphere Gonna come back when I’m back in banff

Best, most authentic pub in Banff. Great staff and atmosphere. Pool tables too! Located right in the centre of town

This is the kinda place that I think is mostly designed for the service and industry locals to come get hosed after their shift. It's dark dank and tiny, the only thing British about it are the various soccer jerseys on the wall. With that said if you're polite and ... understanding that this is a locals first pub you can get a cheap pint and even cheaper shooters and get your motor running. I don't think the food comes from a kitchen but I don't think people go here to eat. Got that Banff underbelly vibe. Keep your expectations low and grab a cold pint. Read more

One of the best bars in Banff. Dive bar style, always a blast, great bartenders with humour, and cheap prices. Only minus is that it is cash only, although there is an ATM with a surcharge available at the venue for credit cards.

Friendly bar staff and served immediately. Reasonable price for a pint. Limited selection of draft but what they had in tap included all the essentials. Pool tables, slot machines and plenty of TV's. A little tucked away which only helped to add to the atmosphere. Only issue was it is ... cash only which is only a minor inconvenience when there is a cash machine in the bar. Would definitely return again. Read more
