Merlins Bar & Grill
Laid-back Atmosphere
Located at the base of Blackcomb Mountain in Whistler’s Upper Village - Merlins vibe is just one small reason why après sessions are so off-the-hook. Merlins has cultivated the spirited vibe of an old-school recreation room party (free of fun-depriving chaperones) with its laid-back mountain cabin décor. The spiritual home of local rockers, The Hairfarmers, Merlins offers good times, mountain-high nachos and flowing brews on tap.
