Pemberton is a charming mountain town just north of Whistler. It has a lot more local character than Whistler. It's a great place to enjoy a coffee or lunch before hitting the road again.

Some hot spots to check out include the Town Square Restaurant, Blackbird Bakery, Lynx Cafe and Mount Currie Coffee Company.

There's very little in terms of services between here and Lillooet, so be sure to stock up on supplies and gas as needed when travelling east along Highway 99.
