Mt. Begbie Brewing Co

Mt. Begbie Brewing Co. is located in beautiful Revelstoke, a small town with rich history, in the heart of British Columbia’s spectacular Columbia mountain range. The company is named after Mt. Begbie, a majestic glacial mountain that dominates the Revelstoke skyline. In turn, the mountain is named after Matthew “Hanging Judge” Begbie, a colorful character from Revelstoke’s early history, who probably would have benefited from a sip of Mt. Begbie’s soothing ales before rendering his judgements. Mt. Begbie Brewing Co. products are available on tap in most pubs and restaurants in British Columbia’s interior. They are also available in bottles in most liquor stores. Kosch, in cans was introduced in the summer of 2009.

Bad Paul’s Roadhouse Grill

Bad Paul’s Roadhouse Grill

Jason from Port Alberni, BC. said, I just went to Bad Paul’s last week, and was so impressed with the service, ambience, and especially food, that I checked out the reviews on this great restaurant. This is definitely a place to visit whenever you are within 50 miles of Revelstoke. Their steak is done just right, for everyone’s taste, and the secret spices they use for marinating them is a point of wonder. I would absolutely encourage everyone, men, women , and child, to come to a relaxed, clean, and friendly atmosphere. The washrooms smelled like a spring garden, even after my visit! The waitress was so caring and attentive, she really made me feel like I was the only person in the restaurant, when she was actually juggling about seven tables at once. Everyone had big smiles on their faces, and the nachos which I ordered before the steak was enough to feed at least four people. The manager even made an appearance and greeted every table with free beverages. I will be coming back as often as possible. (Watch Video)
