Elopement Dinner

We had our elopement dinner in the Caribou Room & the service and food was exceptional. Our guests were amazed by the food, and it was easily one of the best steaks I've ever had. Emily, the group sales coordinator was also easy to work with and made planning incredibly easy.

Amazing Venue for a Small Intimate Wedding Reception!

We had our small reception dinner for 18 at the Maple Leaf and we were BLOWN AWAY by every aspect of this experience! We booked the Wine Room which is a private room for 18. The one long table was separated by plexi-glass barriers to make three sections of 6 - but the barriers were so perfectly clear we could see and hear everyone! It really felt intimate and like a "real" (non-COVID) wedding! The food was OUTSTANDING - everyone raved about it. We ordered a selection of appies (which were all amazing) and the 3 course group menu. The staff were super accommodating with the decorations and provided a couple of extra tables for our cake, gifts, and a TV screen to show a slide show :) They were also very kind to accommodate two of our guests at a close by table (as we exceeded the 18 person max) and allowed them to watch the speeches and games wearing masks nearby. I can't recommend this team and venue enough for a small wedding. Thank you so much maple leaf!!!

Delicious Meal, Great Venvue

We booked our reception dinner of 21 people in Maple Leaf's Wine Room and it was incredible. Nice and private, and absolutely gorgeous. The food blew all of us away - it was amazing! We went with Menu 1 and even though it has the basic chicken, fish, veggie and beef options, it was incredible. Everyone was so impressed and the service was outstanding. Quite a reasonable rate as well which I'm happy about!

We booked a private room for our reception dinner at Maple Leaf Grill and everything was amazing! I had pre-ordered drinks and appetizers to be delivered to our table shortly after we arrived because I knew we would all be very hungry as our wedding was later in the evening. I could not believe how quickly they had everything ready to go! We weren't even sitting down for 5 minutes and then we had a table full of food and drinks in front of us! The staff that I coordinated with to arrange the event were extremely helpful as well & the food was amazing! Can't say enough great things - everything was beyond perfect! Thank you!

We had our wedding reception dinner at Maple Leaf after our meadow ceremony. Our guests loved the food and service, everything from the salads to the dinner to desserts were perfect! I loved the vegan options. It was a great room beautifully decorated with our mountain theme. They were responsive and helpful when planning our wedding dinner from the US. We can't wait to go back from our anniversary :)

The Maple Leaf Grille provided us with such a fantastic experience on our wedding day.
We had a small wedding, and were able to have our wedding dinner at the restaurant in one of its private dining rooms.

The service they gave us was outstanding. The food was perfect.
My sister is a chef and she was very impressed ( not an easy feat!!).

My husband and I would recommend Maple Leaf Grille to anyone and everyone getting married in the Banff area.

Thank you Maple Leaf Grille!

We had our reception at the Maple Leaf and it could not have been any more perfect. We had booked a private room and our menus were personalized and perfect with our own little slogan and stamp that my husband had created for our wedding. The courses we had picked were amazing and everything was cooked perfectly. Each course was even better than the last course and the staff were wonderful. Everyone was talking about that dinner for days after and it was worth every penny.

We booked our rehearsal dinner here the night before our wedding and it was perfect. We rented out the wine room which is beautiful and private and we loved it. They provided us with three options for set menus and they worked out perfectly. They were responsive when last minute numbers varied ever so slightly and also when we had a child requiring a children's menu.

The rehearsal dinner was fabulous.
