There's nothing to complain about at Athena, their food and service were good, but I feel there are so many better places to eat in Banff that you may want to pass over this one.
Stopped here for lunch. All dishes were under very heavy tomato sauce. OK, but not too special. If you're looking for a quick meal.
Service was very good. The pizza was fantastic. So fresh and tasty. Very reasonably priced small pizza for two people only $16.
Seated quickly in a spacious restaurant, friendly and informative waitress, couldn't decide on beer, so was offered a free sample of each.
Food was great, not fancy, just really tasty, quick, and good value for money. I almost never have food boxed up after a meal, but had to make an exception for the "Canadian" pizza.
Lightning quick to act...

if you're looking for a pizza didn't miss this place, it is the closes possible to authentic Italian pizza with thin crust. Good prices in a pricey resort town of Banff
If you're looking for a good pizza in Banff, here's your place. Pizza was excellent and the service was good.
We usually get pizza delivered the first night we are in town ...been there for years ... always consistently good
There are a few places in Banff that offer good value for money. This is one of them.
It's upstairs in the clock tower mall, opposite the Banff Brewing Company.
Excellent pizza.
Decent prices.
Draught beer.
Some good views over Banff avenue and out over the top of the HBC building.
The pizza menu is not very big and there is certainly not a lot of choices if you do not eat pork, however the quality of the pizza and flavour are just great!
Was a great meal. Nothing really stood out. If your looking for a place to grab a meal its good food, but if your looking for something a little different, its basically just like every other pizza and spaghetti place.
We liked the food and drinks, but the real highlight was our view of Banff avenue (from the second story balcony).
We ordered a pizza with Canadian bacon and mushrooms - the cheese on this pizza was so creamy. When we were there, there was a party of 50 kids, which made for a loud experience. The staff was very great with the kids, though; very attentive. Worth the trip.
Upon our recent visit to Banff we stopped in for a meal at Athena Pizza and Spaghetti House and had a delicious #3 pizza. As well, the service was excellent and the restaurant had just be remodeled and looked very good.
This place delivers anywhere in Banff and has some extremely delicious pizza. The crust is just right and the ingredients fresh. Tell them exactly how you want it and they will do everything they can to go above and beyond that. I was so happy to discover that I could get green olives on my pizza. Nobody has green olives... more
The pizza was terrible and tasteless. I would not eat here again. I agree with the comments from the_pink_lady_12.
The pizza was very well prepared and the people were
very accommodating. Nice view from the balcony and
good location in Banff for a view around town
Would like to thank all the great people and Jimmy? Great pizza and delivery we will be back!Next time easy on the anchovies.... more
great atmosphere great owners great deliverer it was the triple home run.
their pizza is home made too
Terrific pizza with terrific delivery tailored to our liking. Their house special is well worth the visit.
I'm not big on pizza, but my boyfriend is. I love their greek salad. Every time we go to banff we come here. Its fresh and the service is always good. Plus they have delivery for when you want to be lazy!
We stopped here after a day of skiing and were very disappointed, which says a lot after being starving from a long day of skiing. #1 The waitress got the pizza order wrong, and then tried to say I ordered what she brought us, when everyone at the table clearly remembered me ordering something different. #2 It wouldn't have mattered... more
just a normal place with friendly service, modest restaurant well priced menu. Good for kids in a town with limited kid restaurants
Well done to all the great people at Athenas. The owners are lovely people as they really cater to the guests and the prices are reasonable too
Very nice operation and lovely selection of pizza. The
prices were very reasonable and the service was
friendly and quick. Would like to return soon.
Great service and food. The pizza is very good and freshly made daily. The atmosphere
is pleasant and it is nice to see such a local hideout for the discerning Pizza fan. We
highly recommend this great place. Thanks again.
We would like to thank all the great people at Athenas. We saw an ad on
kijiji and it said it was the greek gods choice. Why not. Great prices and nice
selection of food and service. Well done! The delivery was prompt and friendly and we
think his name was Jimmy.
So far the best pizza I've had in Banff. The restaurant is simple but feels warm and welcoming. Service is good and staff are friendly. I've got nothing bad to say about it!
We stopped in for lunch while shopping on main street. It was the closest restaurant to us when we were hungry. The interior is not fancy, but the pizza was really good. It came quickly, and piping hot. Some other reviews here are critical of the other food. It was advertised as a pizza place, so we stuck to that... more
Had a late lunch with my wife there. The service the lunch was great, the price was good and the service was excellent.
We just stumbled upon this place and thought we'd give it a try! Staff was friendly, and the food was delicious! We didn't sit outside, but the view was nice, as it was on the second storey. Also, prices were decent!
We stumbled on Athena Pizza on a busy Friday night in Banff. We were seated immediately and the staff was very friendly and attentive. Pizza was above average, some in our group said delicious. A good place to grab a pizza and have a short break from shopping.
We decided to end our day site seeing with dinner here ( was our third choice and won out due to no wait time for a table). The lack of patrons at six pm on a busy Saturday should have been a clue as to what our dinner experience would entail. I ordered the Hawaiian pizza and my husband had... more
Pizza was good. Nice house salad. Good price for beer by the pitcher. Service was excellent. Sat outside on the balcony over looking he street. Perfect ending to a great day.
This place is on the main tourist street in Banff -- basically cheap and cheerful tourist food and I'm cutting them a bit of slack in giving them three out of five.
We ordered a bunch of pizzas, all of them pretty heavy on the salt and oil. Best thing is probably to order 1 medium pizza between two people...

Watriess was a sweet heart
The owner was extremely rude
She just wanted our money and us out.
( literally told us to leave the table and restaurant after we paid our bill)
Pizza was ok have had better
Pasta was dry
Never go back again
Extremely RUDE OWNER
who just wants her money..
Great service and prices. The deliverer is a really good guy we think it name was Jimmy. The rest of the restaurant was great too.We will be back.
We were here for lunch on a rainy day in Banff. We were shown to a nice window seat and could look out and see the mountains and the pedestrian traffic on the street below us.
Service was good considering how busy the restaurant was. We shared a medium pizza with pepperoni, mushrooms and bacon and also had a 1/2...

I feel bad writing a less than positive review however I would not return and think I should share my experience.
The food was good, when it arrived. We went for lunch ordered a pizza to share. We sat out on the balcony which was pretty to look onto the town.
It was the service that was disappointing. It took...

Went here for pizza and they delivered. The pizza has a crispy crust including the edges -- we really liked that. LOTS of cheese on the pizza and plenty of the other toppings. Could have used a little more sauce though. Good service. Okay atmosphere.
I think it has literally been about 20 years since I had been here and my wife had never been.
We both ordered our own pizzas and they were delicious with plenty of toppings! The missus had a Hawaiian and I went with pep/mush.
The decor is simple but it works. The food is priced fairly and the staff was...

Service, food, and price all very good. There are many choices in the area and we were happy to find this one. There is an outdoor space overlooking the main street. Great for people watching. Inside where we ate was comfortable and pleasant.
Our first night in Banff everyone was a bit tired from the trip and the kids just wanted some pizza. Everyone was pleasantly surprised and the pizza was great. The kids liked it so much we picked up pizza to go on another night during our trip!
I went based on TA reviews and was not disappointed. The waitress was very polite and welcoming. She made sure we were comfortable. My mom and aunt were a bit cold so she made sure the patio door was closed. We ordered a small vegetarian as we have very small appetites but the waitress was very polite. She even agreed... more
As a former Buffalonian I am very selective about pizza. The Athena delivered. The crust was great, the topping was superior. This is a mom and pop shop in business for 37 years. All dough is made daily. I recommend the Athena as just terrific. It met all of our needs and more. The staff was exceptionally pleasant.
I had a craving for some pasta, and the lasagna here hit the spot. Tasty, filling, and not too expensive.
We came here without a reservation and they were willing to accomodate us, a family group of 21 including infants. The food was great and very friendly service.
The service was fast, friendly and accurate. We split a half and half large 14" pizza - half Hawaiian and half Spicy. It was one of the best pizzas either of us had ever tasted. Including a pop and a tea, it came to around $30, and we took half of the pizza home. Again, absolutely perfect, and our server... more
I & my friend are traveling in Canada. Banff town was small though, there are a lot of restaurant. we choose the Athena restaurant. we had a small house pizza, small greek salad and oven bake spaghetti. Everything was good and service too. Especially the oven bake spaghetti was awesome :-) If you like the cheese I'm sure you like... more
I and my friend were traveling for two nights and three days in Banff. I'm gonna mention of Athena food shortly. We had a small greek salad, small house pizza and oven bake spaghetti. Everything was good. Especially oven bake spaghetti was best of best. Good service made us happy :-)
Food was consistent with what we expected. Really enjoyed the baked spaghetti. Nice to look out on main Street while dining.
I had dinner last night with my wife and teenage son and it was a treat. We were recommended here from the desk clerk at the Banff Springs Hotel as the best pizza in town and she was right. Outstanding thin dish pizza, great service and great price. Basket of garlic toast was huge and we couldn't finish it. Wait... more
Great food, friendly and pretty waitress, good place for our family of 4. Very accomodating and decent prices. Best pizza we’ve ever had. One large pizza was plenty for us.
Delicious with fresh toppings.
Best pizza !!! They have a sauce with a little spice to it, and are not shy with the toppings.
Had the spaghetti and it was a large portion. The staff was quite friendly and fast. The restaurant was very clean with a nice setting.
