Small city vibes at this pub. I don't make it here often because, well, I live in Edmonton. It's worth the drive for me. The service is always top knotch!...

We were looking for a place for a patio in Fort Saskatchewan because it was a gorgeous day out. We saw that The Bear's Den had one. Not exactly the most attractive patio or bar, but we wanted the sun. Our server was prompt and friendly and our food came out quickly after we ordered it. They have lots of beer on tap to choose from and a good cocktail list. Since we seemed to be the only ones at the place (on a Friday night) I was really nervous about the food. I really didn't need to be. I ordered the grilled salmon burger with fresh mango salsa Grilled salmon on a bed of fresh kale slaw. Topped with fresh mango salsa honey lime spread on a brioche bun. It was absolutely delicious. The mango salsa worked really well with the grilled salmon. If you like fish, this is a dish for you. I had it with the Caesar salad, which was really well done. The deep fried pickles were a great touch. My husband ordered The Bear a 9 oz. house made patty with cheddar cheese. He chose the fries, and was really satisfied with his meal. My only beef with this place was that it was and extra 3 bucks to substitute the fries with anything. I don't think this is appropriate or necessary. Even if you could substitute the fries with a garden salad (which many restaurants will do with no charge) or the soup of the day would be good. And then if you offered more expensive sides for an additional charge (ie sweet potato fries or onion rings) then you can slap on a charge. Or if you are charging more, why is it a whole three bucks? Couldn't you toss a salad at the same rate as you throw fries in the deep fryer? Still a great place. Too bad I don't like fries.
