Oh my god. The best poutine i ate so far in my bikepacking trip in Canada from Quebec with my parrot. In almost 9 month. Fresh potato chunk, homemade gravy sauce, and melted cheese on top . With a good rootbeer, Shannon make he own : Marcus, Ahmed and Shannon are lovely human beings. It was fun to stay there and eat and also have a good conversation and laughs. Location is left coming from kamloops. Highly recommand this restaurant .

Literally the best burger Ive ever had. The lady took my order, and when I walked to the side of the building, she was already there shooting a home made bow and arrow. Honestly just the coolest experience all around. A must stop.

The owners were very friendly and had fast service, even with a larg(er) group of lovely German tourists came at the same time. The burger was fantastic and delicious. Home cut fries were crispy and thick. Cash only. Well worth the stop.

YUM!! Great place after a hike. Looks like the ice cream is also very popular. :) We had the BLT and loaded burger and they were awesome!

What a great place to stop and grab a bite. The hamburger was delicious. Frankly one of the better burgers I've had in some time. The people behind the counter were very nice. It's not fancy but then the food makes up for not having any indoor seating found in restaurants, but it does feel like you are enjoying a home cooked burger at a picnic table. Well worth stopping by. NB it's cash only

Really great quick stop for a bite in Clearwater. We stopped here after checking out the falls and hiking in Wells Gray Provincial Park. They server German street food and hamburgers would be the best way to describe it. The Currywurst is bomb and the ketchup/curry sauce is amazing!! Reminds me of Berlin snacking after a night out on the town. There are outdoor picnic benches put front and on the side for you to eat but no indoor dining as it's mostly grab and go. The owner and staff are all very friendly as well!

After my whitewater rafting experience I had my best tasting schnitzel here. My wife had a curry worst bratwurst with potato wedgies. A delicious intermission to our next camping trip destination. 5 stars. Also. Talk about hunting stories with the place owner.
