Tucked away at the base of Red Chair on Whistler Mountain is a vegetarian/vegan restaurant, which is the first for North American ski resorts. Only 2 items on the menu aren't vegan. Has a variety of menu items from a Korean beef kim chi sandwich to a chicken pita pocket with apple walnut slaw. Other food includes Gardein sandwiches, salads, mac'n'cheese, chocolate brownies and more. Feb 2019 reported bread rolls contain lactose - please check. Removed February 2023: Limited vegan options.

Vail Fail - Edit
The app won’t let me give fewer stars because it thinks it’s still a vegetarian dedicated restaurant. It is not. It now serves meat and has just one vegan option. Chilli. And it’s a poor excuse for it too. Even before I was vegan I’d ski to this restaurant over any other just for its vegan brownie. The food used to be awesome. Today was a depressing day indeed. It still claims to be a vegetarian/vegan restaurant on Google too. Very misleading. Zero stars.

Such a great lunch spot! - Edit
Really simple low key spot went twice for lunch. Warming soups (taste of Tuscany) and Moroccan chickpea stew were great. The salads were also super tasty. Loved the jars and limited plastics. Vegan Hot chocolate with coco whip was so big I couldn’t finish it and quite rich but really good.

sadly less vegan friendly than the last visit - Edit
What can I say... I love that this even exists BUT the last time I visited, two years ago, the whole menu was vegan except the pastries. Now, they have 1 dessert item that is vegan out of many vegetarian selection but there are three things on the menu that aren’t vegan and of course they are the ones you’d prefer to eat. This saddens me when someplace that was aiming higher in the past starts changing to be less vegan-friendly. I mean, why??

delicious mountain food - Edit
Pretty much everything was vegan. Even the yum choc cake we had for dessert! Trust me it’s worth the ski down!

Great little eatery with fantastic views - Edit
What a happy surprise to find this 95% ish vegan treat just by the top of the Creekside gondola and the bottom of the lift on Whistler. Delicious food - soups, sandwiches, salads and a couple of stews. The vegan meatball add-ons were a firm favourite in our group. Gets 5 stars for it's very existence! The food was extremely tasty too handily.
Read morePros: It is a vegan restaurant on a mountain!!!, Fairly good selection , Very friendly staff
Cons: Can get busy at lunchtime, May run out of some items if you get there too lat, Small so seating could be limited in high season

Love it! - Edit
I love Whistler. A big part is the mountain but I can't discount the fact that Raven's nest has amazing food and most of it is vegan. Vegan food is sometimes so hard to find in a ski resort and to have a whole hut is amazing. Order everything you can and ski hard the rest of the day.

LOVE the new Raven's Nest! - Edit
Feeling so grateful to have a veggie restaurant on the mountain. Big thank you to WB and the team for making this happen.
Read moreThere is a great variety of delicious food, from hot sandwiches like the tasty Gardein meatball sub, to vegan mac'n'cheese to soups and salads. It's great that they are using Gardein and Daiya, two local BC companies!
A great place to eat on the mountain whether you're veggie or otherwise!
Pros: Friendly, passionate staff, Delicious food, Great location and views
Cons: I can't make it there every day.

Amazing vegan food on the hill! - Edit
This place is the best spot on the mountain (and village) to stop in for refuelling after or even before a hard day's shredding. The menu is innovative, well presented, reasonably priced and most importantly vegan! This is a world first as far as i know and i think it puts Whistler (even more) on the map as a destination for vegan/veggie/plant based skiers and boarders. Just go, you won't regret it!
Read morePros: Tasty, Exciting options, vegan food on the hill!!!!!

Shred fuel - Edit
I stopped into Raven's Nest to re-fuel after a big morning of shredding on Whistler Mountain and was not disappointed.
Read moreDelicious and hearty vegan food awaited me with big smiles from the friendly & helpful staff. The Korean "beef" kimchi sandwich was very satisfying along with a side salad of locally-sourced beets & a mixture of beans and quinoa.
I will most definitely be stopping in here again to fuel up on plant-based proteins whenever I'm hungry!
See you there!
Pros: Plant-based food, Friendly staff, Good for the planet
Cons: Could use more seating, WB is not serving this menu at all resta, I only got 2 hugs from the staff

Vegan skiing made easy - Edit
Best for vegan with a view! Breakfast served 9am and all day, Fair Trade Organic coffee and almond milk will keep you going. Pretty good deal when ordering sandwich with salad?, add soup for less than 5$. All but two items on menu vegan, patries for now vegetarian. Gardein and Daiya - yumm!!
Read morePros: Great views, Hearty, fulfilling vegan meals, House made fresh salad
