Co-Pilot Cafe is conveniently located at the top of the Sea to Sky Gondola, offering beautiful views and a decent variety of snacks and drinks. The food was okay, nothing exceptional and the coffee hit the spot after the hike. That said, since it’s the only cafe up there, prices are definitely on the higher side. It’s good for a quick bite with a view, but don’t expect great value for money.

This is my absolute favorite café — the view is just insane! Grab a coffee, sit back, and soak it all in — it’s pure magic. The atmosphere is peaceful, relaxing, and unforgettable. Take the gondola up and truly make the most of your day. It’s not just a café — it’s an experience. Perfect spot for photos, good vibes, and a little escape from the everyday. The drinks are solid, but honestly, the view is the real star. Can’t recommend it enough — just go and enjoy it!

During a recent trip to Squamish, we decided to explore the area and got on a gondola and stumbled upon a hidden gem - the Co-Pilot Cafe. We ordered the beef pastry with gravy and the chili, both of which were exceptional in flavor and comfort. The beef pastry was tender and savory, perfectly complemented by the rich, hearty gravy. The chili, on the other hand, was a delightful mix of spices and textures, warming us up instantly on a cool day. But what truly sets Co-Pilot Cafe apart are the views. Dining with the panoramic vistas of Squamish’s natural beauty is an unparalleled experience. The majestic surroundings added a whole new level of enjoyment to our meal, making every bite feel special. For anyone heading up the gondola or exploring Squamish, a stop at Co-Pilot Cafe is a must. Not only will you be treated to delicious, comforting food, but the views and atmosphere are truly unbeatable. A word of advice: bring your camera, because you’ll want to remember this unique dining experience!

Unfortunately a few positions on the menu weren't available. The line up was quite long, but the food and drinks we got was great and we were in great mood after walking around and enjoying the views so that wasn't negative experience.
