Coyotes Family Steakhouse is the northernmost Certified Angus branded steakhouse in the world — and the place every Yellowknife local will send you when you ask where to eat.

Owner Ed But runs his floor personally, and that’s the difference. Whether you’re sitting down to a tomahawk ribeye, fresh northern fish, or the legendary sizzling prawns, you’ll leave with a story. Coyotes has been a cornerstone of Yellowknife’s community for over a decade — feeding families, sponsoring local teams, and making every visitor feel like they belong here.

Come for the Certified Angus beef. Stay because Ed won’t let you leave until you’ve had a good time.

Sundog Trading Post Café

The sundog trading post cafe in Yellowknife under the green aurora.

The capital city’s most interesting neighborhood has no shortage of stellar spots to stop and savour a cup of coffee. Here, you quickly realize you’re situated near a central subarctic thoroughfare, as floatplanes, sailboats and watercraft zip by in all directions, and houseboaters zig-zag in between, on their daily paddle commute to the mainland.

The Sundog Trading post is one place that has a seriously great spot on the water looking out to Back Bay.

“Enjoy the log built feel and mix with the locals while you have a enjoy a menu of paninis, soup, salads, homemade ice cream with fresh waffle cones (all made on-site),” says owner Richard McIntosh, who along with his family offer one of the best spots to enjoy ice cream, local tea and espresso coffee.
