Dining
Fifty Two 80 Bistro
Named for the number of feet that can be skied on Blackcomb Mountain's vertical mile, Fifty Two 80 Bistro celebrates its spectacular alpine location with glorious views of the local mountains from a brilliant fire-lit setting. A sleek wood interior, colourful earth tones and an open fire provide a cosy setting for breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Integrating local produce and seasonal Pacific Northwest ingredients, each plate is paired to perfection with select British Columbia wines. Finish with decadent desserts from our in-house pastry shop.
Summertime brings wonderful outdoor dining on the spacious heated patio. On long summer evenings, an outdoor fireplace creates an inviting ambience. Live music with local legend Guitar Doug of The Hairfarmers has everyone dancing, while local crooners such as Ali Milner shine the spotlight on Whistler's home-grown talent. Winter conjures a romantic setting with s'mores by the fire pit.
Specialties
Enjoy a satisfying start to the day with a healthy morning buffet or sample offerings from the à la carte menu throughout the day. Regionally inspired dishes feature the best of both Pacific Ocean and freshwater seafood. The extensive wine list includes a boutique collection of British Columbia's award-winning wines.
