Quick Look: Christine’s on Blackcomb

  • April 28, 2019
  • Brad A. Johnson

Christine’s is the preeminent on-mountain restaurant on Blackcomb Mountain. It’s a posh full-service dining room and bar at 6,102 feet, accessible by gondola or on skis. It’s open for lunch year-round, and the views are usually incredible. I dined here again in April while enjoying some springtime skiing, but at lunchtime during my visit the mountain and the view were obscured in a haze of snow and fog. Here’s a quick look around.

You’ll need a reservation, and you’ll have to pick up the phone and call because they don’t accept reservations online. Whistler Blackcomb, 604.938.7437
