광역 밴쿠버에서 2시간 안의 스쿼미시(Squamish)는 가는 길의 절벽과 강 그리고 가을 단풍을 즐길 수 있다. 자연을 그대로 담은 멋진 브런치 카페 Fergie’s Café(70002 Squamish Valley Road, Brackendale, BC, V0N1H0)는 현지인들에게 인기있는 맛집이다. 특히 휘슬러를 가는 길 맛집으로 유명하다.  식당은 2곳으로 나누어지며 창가에 앉아 풍경을 보며 즐기는 브런치를 추천한다. 대표 메뉴는 BBQ Asado Hash와 Fried Oyster Mushroom Karaage로 유기농 버섯과 채소를 재료로 사용해 인기가 높다.

브런치 카페인 만큼 월요일에서 금요일까지는 오전 9시부터 오후 3시, 토요일과 일요일은 오전 9시부터 오후 4시까지 영업한다.
