Fodor's Expert Review Maligne Canyon Wilderness Kitchen
$$
Jasper National Park
Barbecue
As it's right beside the Maligne Canyon trailhead, this restaurant is a convenient stop before or after a hike. There's a nice cocktail and craft beer menu, and you can relax on the patio around one of the gas-fire tables before or after dinner. Smoked meats are the specialty here: brisket, pulled pork, venison sausage, or chicken are served with mac-n-cheese, baked beans, garlic-Parmesan fries, or grilled vegetables. Try the wilderness platter, which has a sampling of four different smoked meats with four sides. It's big enough for two people, and it's a great value.
