The Best Spring Après Spots in Revelstoke: STHS Staff Picks

Spring in Revelstoke has a rhythm all its own. Longer afternoons, soft snow, and that unmistakable glow over the Monashees make it an ideal time to linger a little longer after skiing. Our team spends every day in the mountains, and when the helicopters are parked and the gear is hung to dry, these are the places we head to for a well-earned après.

 

La Baguette — Pizza, Pints, and a Fireplace Worth Settling Into

La Baguette’s Sunday Pizza and Pint special is a favourite among staff. When the sun is out, the patio is a cheerful place to unwind. If the weather turns, the fireplace inside creates a warm, relaxed atmosphere that pairs perfectly with tired legs and good company.

 

Cantina — A Quiet Patio and the Best Margaritas in Town

Cantina is home to what many of us consider the best margaritas in Revelstoke. Their patio doesn’t always get the attention it deserves, but on a bright spring afternoon it’s a wonderful spot to sit back with a drink and some tacos after a day in the alpine.

 

Monashee Spirits — Craft Cocktails and Cozy Mountain Ambience

When the mood calls for a well-made cocktail, Monashee Spirits is the place to go. Their drinks are thoughtful and creative, and the intimate interior makes it easy to settle in. Catch the patio at the right moment and you’ll find a welcome bit of sunshine before the evening sets in.

 

Rumpus — A Fun, Local Brewery with a Welcoming Patio

Rumpus is one of Revelstoke’s homegrown breweries, known for its easygoing atmosphere and playful character. The patio is a lively gathering place in spring, ideal for groups looking to keep the day going with a fresh pint and some laughter.

 

Mackenzie Outpost — The Best Burger in Town, Right on the Mountain

Perched mid‑mountain at Revelstoke Mountain Resort, the Mackenzie Outpost is home to what many consider the best burger in town—made even better when paired with a cold beer. It’s an ideal spot if weather keeps the helicopters grounded, offering great food, relaxed energy, and unbeatable views.

 

Mt. Begbie Brewing — Big Views and Well-Crafted Beer

Just outside town, Mt. Begbie Brewing offers sweeping views of the mountains and valley. It’s close to the Hillcrest and makes a natural stop on the way back. With its scenery and selection of well-made beers, it’s a classic choice for a relaxed après, and a spot we visit with guests every week.

 

The Hillcrest Patio — The Best View in Revelstoke (Seriously)

A true hidden gem. The Hillcrest patio delivers the best après view in town, hands down. Overlooking the valley with the Monashees rising in the distance, it’s the perfect place to decompress after a day of heli skiing. Order a beer, sink into a chair, and let the scenery do the rest.

 

Spring heli skiing is all about celebrating the season. Longer days, soft snow, beautiful sunshine, and the simple joy of being in the mountains. These après spots are where our team chooses to wind down, refuel, and relive the day’s best lines. Maybe we’ll see you out there.
