The Block Eatery
The Block at Railtown is a breakfast-and-lunch eatery on Baker Street in Nelson's Railtown neighbourhood, built around comfort food with a French flair and an unwavering commitment to local, seasonal Kootenay-region ingredients. Every item on the menu — from crafted sandwiches and chowder to espresso drinks and fresh-baked cookies — is made from scratch using produce sourced directly from regional farmers. For a touring cyclist arriving in Nelson mid-morning, it offers a hearty, regionally rooted refuel in the centre of town.
This place is in the traditional territory of the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, Ĩyãħé Nakón mąkóce (Stoney), Ktunaxa ɁamakɁis, snʕickstx tmxʷúlaʔxʷ (Sinixt), Syilx (Okanagan), and Cayuse, Umatilla and Walla Walla.
