You need to open a door that looks sketchy and go upstairs. This place has no atmosphere, but the staff and food are great. Probably the most reasonably priced meals in Yellowknife- and my son's favourite spot.

The grocery store actually has a pretty great hot meal counter. You can get fries and chicken for $5.00, and they are actually really tasty!

Arts & Culture

We have a consensus government so our legislative assembly is round. To respect the culture the ceiling is made of glass carvings reflecting the igloos which were the original homes in the territory. The legislature also boasts the largest collection of AY Jackson paintings on display.

Our museum is wonderful- and free. During the weekdays there is a world class restaurant that offers international cuisine. Come to see the bison and muskox, stay for the views.

The falls are beautiful. It is a bit of a hike, bring water- don't go off the trail. There are some rocks and large step downs, but the trail is well marked and maintained.

Just about 2 km past the falls on the Ingraham trail, a much easier 1 km hike, falls are really beautiful, fishing is great and it is a flat hike in.
