This new spot just opened up in Cochrane, which sounds to us like a great idea for a road trip.
Located at the Cochrane Golf Club, this store and dining room serves fried chicken, baked goods, coffee, gelato, brunch, and more. There are so many great food spots within driving distance of Calgary and this seems like one of the most intriguing.
Address: 240 Riverview Drive, Cochrane
