Restaurants in Yellowknife

  1. A

    Bullock's Bistro

    This fish shack is the city's most-revered eatery, despite (or perhaps because of) the irascible service. Only fresh local cod, trout and whitefish make the menu. The atmosphere is ultra-informal, the deck has bay views, and kitsch and countless photos bedeck the walls. Reservations are recommended.

  2. B

    Le Frolic Bistro Bar

    This cheery establishment and the L'Héritage Restaurant upstairs are the token French eateries in Les Territories du Nord-Ouest. The usually delicious meals range from Montreal smoked-meat sandwiches (around C$13) to pan-fried Great Slave pickerel ($23).

    Wildcat Café

    A tourist trap that locals love too, this famed Old Town café operates out of a 1937 log cabin. A different vendor runs it each summer, so the menu, prices and opening hours vary.

    In a candlelit dining room almost overhanging Back Bay, enjoy grilled Arctic char (around C$32), musk-ox in a red wine demi-glaze (around C$45) or other Northern delicacies.

    Le Stock Pot

    Yellowknife's delectable deli offers fresh sandwiches, wraps, salads, baked goods and cheeses. All this plus a sunny patio equals the best lunch spot in town.

  6. F

    Diner

    Around rickety tables, old-timers and deadbeats shoot the bull. Breakfasts and lunchtime burgers are greasy, but the flavor here is all in the patrons.
