Farm Fresh. Wood Fired. These are the concepts behind Farm & Fire Banff – one of Banff’s newest restaurants.
The menu at Farm & Fire Banff was designed by Chef Scott Hergott, recognized for his award-winning culinary innovation at the Banff Gondola’s Sky Bistro. The menu pays homage to wood-fired and slow-roasted staples.
