Usually is closed when we roll through town but today the cafe was open (closes at 4pm) and am glad we stopped. Not an extensive or complicated menu but very well done. He was an army cook. My Rueben was perfect (the right kind of mustard, was pressed, just the right amount of everything) and the (homemade) potatoe salad was brilliant - was even plated. Bring cash or eTransfer. Will be dreaming of that lunch until we come again next summer.

This is located inside the train station along with a little cafe/bistro. It has locally made items and McBride gifts. We purchased a wood train xmas tree ornament and a pair of hand knit baby booties. We were also told of a model train set that was tucked away. An employee walked us over to a door where an older gentleman was working away on his huge model train set! Our 3yr old and my husband absolutely loved it! There is a tip jar there and I do encourage people to leave a tip as he opens his doors to strangers. Overall a great little place for a rest stop! Also there are public washrooms in this building.

We stopped at the McBride VIA Rail Station in July 2019 during our trip to Prince Rupert from Jasper. There was a nice Art and Crafts Gallery gallery housed within the heritage station building. The gallery has some of the paintings and art works done by the local artists on display.. The name of the gallery is ‘Whistle Stop Gallery’. There is also a café and coffee shop called ‘The Beanery’.We wish we could have browsed a bit more but the locomotive’s engineer sounded the train’s hooter, the conductor blew her whistle, and we had to board our train to head to Prince George.

Great little boutique of handcrafted items. Great selection, something for everyone. Some very creative artisans have their work hereIt's in the railway station, so lots of history. Don't forget to check out the caboose nearby.

A stunning variety of local styles and mediums, including wood, pottery, paint, paper, even instruments - all created by local artists. I was humbled by the diversity of art and history in this wonderfully run non-profit store.

This is the only place in the region to find truly handcrafted art and goods. Beyond your typical souvenir store. GOOD QUALITY. BEAUTIFUL STUFF. Locally owned, and supports local artists and artisans
