The Drake Inn
Located at the entrance to Main Street, The Drake “serves up quality casual fare, friendly service and plenty of good times.” The wood interior, big windows for mountain-gazing, two fireplaces and couches contribute to the authentic pub experience. Some of Canmore’s best live entertainment performs here most nights (Monday is karaoke), and in summer three panoramic patios capture the sun all day (they supply the sunscreen). The Drake was named “Best Pub in the Canadian Rockies” by Skier Magazine and “one of Canada's top 120 pubs” by The Pub Lover's Guide..
