Nourish was such a joy to find. After roaming Banff for dinner and only finding franchise steak houses like Tony Romas, we were advised by a cab driver to try Nourish. Not many cabbies recommend vegetarian restaurants so we knew it had to be good. Great atmosphere and run by a quirky guy who whips the orders, drinks and food... More

We decided to give this place a go after the good reviews on trip advisor and definitely not disappointed. The food was flavourful and the portions large. We had nachos and the house curry for main followed by the apple pie for dessert. All the food appeared fresh and didnt take long to arrive with us! Staff were friendly and... More

We never had vegetarian food before and we pleasantly surprised. Very flavorful. We had the beautiful burrito, king kong noodles and the ravioli. The best was the ravioli. Only drawbacks were the music (weird and loud) and the cramped quarters. It did not seeM to deter the lunch crowd. And it didn't deter us. If you are going to get... More

A vegetarian oasis in a town dominated by meat restaurants. We are not vegetarian but wanted a change from meat and ended up going for 2 nights running. The food is sublime, very tasty with creative takes on standard veg fare. On the first night they were full but made space for us outside. Service friendly and prompt. outstanding More

I ate at Nourish as part of a group of six guys, including some very skeptical non-vegetarians, and we were all very impressed by the delicious food. More

Are you ready to wait over 2 hours because your waitress forgot to put in your order? Even after you asked, twice? Well then this place is for you. The staff kept telling us it was what we ordered because they had to make it from 'scratch'. It was just difficult to watch everyone around us who had arrived after... More

First of all, I love meat and was a little worried going to an all vegetarian bistro. But this place blew me away. The food quality is fresh, the ingredients are organic and made to order - and you can absolutely taste it. I will come back for sure because the food is so excellent, I am eager to try... More

As we entered Nourish we were met by Mark, one of the owners, who asked us if we had eaten there before. At first, I thought it a little odd but as he launched into why this would be a little different dining experience, it began to make sense. Servings were a good size which he promised. The melange of... More
