Taking Local To
The Next Level
As a Lethbridge landmark, we take our responsibility to represent this town seriously. That’s why we work with local farms, greenhouses and ranches to create fresh, flavourful dishes showcasing the very best ingredients Lethbridge has to offer. Whether you’re looking for a juicy filet mignon, crisp salad or decadent dessert, we’ve got a dish you’re sure to love. In southern Alberta, there’s no better way to support local than eating the fruits of the land.

Lethbridge’s Local Watering
Hole, Since 1959

About The Water Tower
The Water Tower has been an integral part of Lethbridge’s skyline since its completion in 1959. Back then, it stored and supplied Lethbridge with clean drinking water.
Like many small towns, Lethbridge updated their water supply shortly before the turn of the Millenium, leaving the water tower an obsolete monument from a different time.
But, in March 2003, a local entrepreneur and architect purchased the building, saving it from destruction and creating a restaurant with an incredible view for the whole community to enjoy.
