Betty O's - AINSWORTH HOT SPRINGS

The breakfast buffet at Ciabatta was perfect. The coffee was excellent, especially the espresso. My friend even went back for seconds. The muffins looked delicious. It's a great stop on the way or an alternative to The Hot Springs. I highly recommend it.

While on your adventures in the Kootenays, be sure to stop in for treats at a Betty O's. Nelson Visitor Centre stopped in had refreshing smoothies and snacks.

If you're visiting or staying Ainsworth Hot Springs, Betty O's is the place to have a very good cup of coffee, tasty breakfast or funky lunch/dinner. Very creative menu. The staff are very friendly, it's clean and best of all, it's served from a reconditioned School Bus!

Stumbled across this gem after a dip in the Ainsworth hot springs looking for ice cream. Was pleasantly surprised at everything offered from a converted school bus.....Ingenious!! Not only was there ice cream but also coffees, home baked goods, breakfasts, panini's etc. School bus seats were taken out and used as seats for the booths. Very reasonably priced too!

We enjoyed paninis and smoothies on a smoking hot afternoon. The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was fast and friendly. Definitely worth a stop!
