Bannock Broz Restaurant in Enoch Receives Rave Reviews

by Ella

Bannock Broz, a restaurant offering an Indigenous twist on the classic Philly Cheesesteak, has quickly become a favorite among locals in the Edmonton area. The combination of steak, green peppers, onions, and cheese, all served on a fluffy bannock, has earned rave reviews from customers since the restaurant’s opening last year.

The eatery, located at the Enoch Community Centre west of Edmonton, has attracted visitors from across the region. One Sherwood Park family, making the drive from one side of Edmonton to the other, calls it worth every mile.

“We came out here, and we’re addicted,” Jason Douglas told CTV News Edmonton. “We come back every weekend.”

Bannock Takes Center Stage

The star of the show at Bannock Broz is the bannock itself, which has received praise for its light and fluffy texture, complementing the rich flavors of the sandwich. Lisa Douglas, another regular, shared her enthusiasm: “This is deadly. It’s light, it’s fluffy, it’s got the flavors, everything.”

From Pop-Up to Permanent Location

Bannock Broz owner Joseph Rucchin began his business with a pop-up tent and later operated from a food trailer. As demand grew, Rucchin moved to a more permanent location in November at Enoch Cree Nation.

“People are travelling from Hinton, Lethbridge, Athabasca, Sherwood Park,” Rucchin said. “They’re out here every weekend, and we’re so thankful.”

Rucchin credits social media for helping to spread the word, with videos garnering tens of thousands of views and bringing in a steady stream of customers.

A Community Focus and Future Ambitions

As Bannock Broz continues to grow, Rucchin has found a way to give back. The restaurant accepts donations of new outdoor clothing, which will be delivered to those in need living outside.

Open seven days a week from 12-5 p.m., Rucchin hopes to expand Bannock Broz across Canada, allowing more people to enjoy the unique taste of his Indigenous-inspired sandwiches.
