An absolute treasure - Edit
Such a cute spot surrounded by mountains and not too far from other lovely sights in to explore in Pemberton, and truly excellent food with generous portions. More than a roadside stop, this should be a destination.

Amazing food, prices and service! - Edit
Been out west for a few weeks and this was the best meal I’ve eaten hands down!
Read moreDropped by on my way back from Joffre Lakes on my way to Whistler for lunch. I got the Buffalo chicken wrap, my boyfriend got the beyond burger and we split the fries. Everything was filling, so flavourful and the attention to detail was really appreciated. I also had to try the soft serve, the flavour at the time was pumpkin spice which was delicious and had such a nice creamy texture.
The service was friendly and fast. I wish I could go back and try the rest of the menu, can’t recommend this enough ☺️

Perfect place for vegans - Edit
Folks, you HAVE to stop at this place. Unbelievably delicious food and a chilled vibe. Leo, the owner, came up with great plant based recipes that taste like heaven. We had 3 different wraps and all of them were just perfect. Highly recommend!!!

Generous portions - Edit
What a neat little roadside cafe! I had the Greek wrap, which was generously sized and delicious. Got a combo, which included a cup of fries and a fountain lemonade - their own recipe, which was yummy and not too sweet. If you're looking for a casual vegan meal in the Pemberton area, definitely check this place out.

Best burger I’ve ever eaten!! - Edit
I ordered the double beyond smash burger with added banana peppers and caramelised onion. From the brioche-like bun to the balance of the sauces, it was totally delicious. Had that flame grilled flavour to the patties as well. Sad that Hwy is 7500km from where I live for a return visit!
Read morePros: Amazing view of the mountains from the tables, World class beyond burger, Reasonably priced

Great Road Side Treats - Edit
Stopped at The Hwy Cafe before a round of golf at Big Sky. The mushroom filled Blue Rodeo Wrap was the special of the day and was both tasty and filling. Fresh veggies, roasted mushrooms, hwy sauce, what’s not to like? The wife got the classic grilled cheese and was equally impressed.

Great food, very convenient - Edit
Great little place, good food, big portions, welcoming staff, and at perfect point along a long road trip to grab a bite. Really glad we decided to stop, as the place doesn't look like much from the road. Will be stopping in regularly as we make this trip north.

Best Food Ever - Edit
If i could give more stars i would. alllll the stars! I have eaten vegan food all over north america and HOLY HECK i think this tiny cafe in pemberton bc has the best food consistently across the board! I went with 3 friends and we had a bbq wrap, a breakfast burger, a pizza grilled cheese, and a smash burger. It was all incredible. The bbq soy curls are unbelievable. The pizza grilled cheese was the best my friend had ever had. I was hesitant about the smash burger because the patty is thinner than i am used to but it worked! It allowed me to taste everything and now all i want are smash burgers! And the breakfast burger had a hashbrown on it, need i say more. The owner/chef came out to say hi and was really nice too. I wish i could eat here at least weekly but i can't afford the gas lol.
Read morePros: Incredible food, Nice outdoor seating, Incredible food lol
Cons: a little far to drive from new west but worth it!

Loved it - Edit
I’m so glad we stopped here for lunch after a nearby hike. We ordered variations of the Smash (beyond) Burger, a kids hot dog and the Banh Mi. Everything was incredibly tasty and fresh, and the owners were really friendly.
Read moreThe Banh Mi was loaded with fresh veggies, tofu and BBQ sauce. For the burgers, we found the patty really thin, but you have the option of doubling or tripling your patty, as well as customizing with a large choice of add ons.
Dessert options include soft serve (flavors vary), cookies and brownie.
