Many will remember the Steamers Coffee shop that was previously tucked away behind the Bear’s Paw Lounge in Fairmont Hot Springs Resort – It has since been replaced by their new Coffee Shop right beside the Main Lodge Entrance – It left behind a bright empty space that was an obvious place for guests to have a meal and a drink while enjoying the views.

This smaller space could provide a more intimate, or private dining space that complements the existing Antlers Restaurant, Large Function Rooms, and even the Bears Paw Lounge.

The only challenge was – It didn’t have a liquor licence. The other challenge the Resort faced was catering for families with kids arriving later at night, looking for meals and a drinks for the adults. (After 10 pm the main restaurants are closed, and BC regulations do not allow minors in the Lounge area).

We were able to come up with a licensing solution that would include the space under the existing Main Lodge Restaurant Licence, allowing minors to be present; while Food and Beverage service is provided by the staff of the Bear’s Paw next door – This week our solution was approved by LCRB.

Look out for a new option for Dining at the Main Lodge coming soon – The space also will be available for private bookings, by smaller groups who do not need a full sized event room, or the large formal Dining Room.

If you have a licensing challenge for your business, please give us a call – Providing options is a big part of what we do….
