Public health officials have ordered the closure of Whistler Blackcomb, and Whistler’s restaurants, pubs and bars are closed for indoor dining until April 19, 2021 at midnight to prevent community spread of COVID-19 related to non-essential travel.

Like you, we hear the call of adventure, but now is not the time for personal, non-essential travel.  We look forward to welcoming you back to Whistler soon, so keep dreaming and planning for tomorrow. Information and resources for travellers are available at whistler.com/covid.

Staying and supporting local has its perks! There are a plethora of dining deals to choose from right now as Whistler restaurants revive their beloved shoulder season deals for winter. From dine-in deals (with your household bubble only) to take-out and delivery, Whistler is literally your oyster, or er, charcuterie board  – doesn’t quite have the same ring does it? But you get the idea – there’s a lot to choose from!

Here’s what we think you’ll love.

Dine-in Deals

21 Steps – 3-Course Dinner for $41

Available Sunday to Thursday

21 Steps’ three-course special is priced per person and includes a small plate, big plate and dessert (or specialty coffee if you run out of room!) With casual, modern comfort food like bacon-wrapped filet mignon, baked cannelloni and stuffed, roasted poblano pepper, there is something for everyone.

21 Steps is also offering their Attic Special – head upstairs to the lounge and you can get three small plates for the price of two. You should probably include the fried goat cheese in that order.

21 Steps Menu

The special is dine-in, but you can order take-out from 21 Steps through Whistler Dine In.
