Ski Day Bliss & Apres Eats at Nico's Pizzeria in Revelstoke


After a day carving down the legendary slopes of Revelstoke Mountain Resort, there's nothing quite like the warmth and comfort of a hearty meal and a good drink. On my recent ski trip, I stumbled upon Nico's Pizzeria, a local gem that perfectly captured the apres-ski vibe, and I'm excited to share my experience.


Located right in the heart of Revelstoke, Nico's is a casual and welcoming spot that's clearly a favorite with both locals and tourists. The aroma of fresh pasta and bubbling cheese hits you the moment you walk in, promising a delicious and satisfying meal.

Apres-Ski Delights: Pasta, Poutine, and Perfect Drinks



My group and I were ravenous after a full day on the mountain, and Nico's didn't disappoint. We started with a round of drinks, opting for some local craft beers to complement the cozy atmosphere. The menu is extensive, featuring a variety of pizzas, pastas, and poutines, but we were particularly drawn to the pasta and poutine options.

For my main course, I opted for the Veggie Penne with the rosé sauce. The pasta was cooked perfectly al dente, and the combination of artichoke, spinach, roma tomato, and red onion was fresh and flavorful. The rosé sauce added a creamy richness that was just what I needed after a day in the cold.

Of course, no visit to a Canadian mountain town is complete without trying the poutine. Nico's offers a range of poutine options, and we decided to try the classic Fries, cheese curds & gravy. The fries were crispy, the cheese curds were squeaky, and the gravy was rich and savory – a true comfort food classic.


Gluten-Free Goodness: A Pleasant Surprise



As someone with gluten sensitivities, I was thrilled to see that Nico's offered gluten-free penne or spaghetti for their pasta dishes. This meant I could enjoy a delicious pasta meal without any worries. The fact that they also offered a vegan and gluten-free gravy option for their poutines was another fantastic discovery. It’s so great to see restaurants catering to various dietary needs without sacrificing flavor.

Monashee Spirits, Revelstoke, Apres,

Revelstoke Après: Monashee Spirits is a MUST! Okay fam, let's talk about the perfect way to cap off a day on the slopes in Revelstoke, BC. You've carved some serious powder, your legs are burning (in a good way!), and you're ready to relax and refuel. Enter: Monashee Spirits Distillery. This place is a must-visit, whether you're a whisky aficionado, a cocktail connoisseur, or just looking for a cozy spot to warm up after a day in the snow. First off, the whisky. Can we talk about the collection? Over 700 bottles! It's a whisky library, a whisky museum, a whisky…well, you get the picture. They've got whiskies from all over the world – Scotland, Japan, you name it. Imagine sinking into a comfy chair after a long day of skiing, a warming dram of your favorite whisky in hand. Pure bliss. Seriously, if you can't find a whisky you love here, you might need to re-evaluate your life choices. Now, I'm no whisky expert (yet!), but thankfully, the folks at Monashee Spirits know their stuff. They offer these amazing tasting flights, which are perfect for newbies like me and seasoned pros alike. It's a guided tour of flavor, and they change it up regularly, so there's always something new to try. But hold on, whisky lovers, because that's not all! Monashee Spirits is more than just a whisky haven. They also craft incredible cocktails using their own distilled spirits (and other carefully selected ingredients). Think creative concoctions, classic cocktails done right, and seasonal specials that will blow your mind. Picture this: you've just come off the slopes, the snow is falling outside, and you're sipping a Monashee Mule or a Topless Girl on a Bike in Paris (yes, that's a drink!). Pure après-ski perfection. They clearly put the same care and passion into their cocktails as they do their whiskies.
