Best Places to Eat in Golden, BC

One of our core values at Edelweiss Village + Resort is community. While we've built a small community here on the mountainside, we're also just minutes from the incredible local businesses and people that make Golden such a special place. Staying connected to that community has always been important to us.

We know visiting somewhere new can be overwhelming. It's hard to tell from a Google search which places locals actually frequent, and if you've just arrived, checked into your chalet, and settled in, you may not have had the chance to explore the town yet.

We'll be the first to tell you that Golden is so much more than the handful of gas stations and restaurants you'll see from the highway. We encourage you to head into town, explore, and experience the places locals genuinely love.

To help you get started, we've rounded up some of our favourite food and drink spots. Consider it a list of recommendations from a friend. Here are a few places we think are well worth checking out while you're here.
