Restaurant Team
Meet the People That Keep Us Ticking and Improving!
Our large brewpub has 40+ team members, which is just too much for us to list here all at once as we launch this new website. We’ll gradually expand this page to include more of our team, but for now we’ll just focus on restaurant leadership!
Front of House Mgr: Aidan Hill
Aidan joined Prairie Dog Brewing in 2023 as an all-rounder and quickly proved himself, becoming an adept supervisor after a few months, and eventually taking on a role as Front of House Manager, where he excels at organization, inventory management, training and communication with our team. Aidan is recognizable based on his glasses, strawberry blonde hair and a notebook that he almost always carries with him.
In his spare time, Aidan loves to hike in the rockies, and he’s a huge movie buff, having gone through film school in the past. He’s also a big reader with a big heart.
Head chef: Patrick Everett
Meet Patrick “Patty” Everett, a talented Head Chef in our Prairie Dog Brewing kitchen. Originally from Didsbury, Alberta, Patty’s passion for cooking was inspired by his grandmother, who taught him the joy of preparing meals for family. After honing his skills at the Culinary Institute of Canada in PEI, with a work placement at the Fairmont Chateau Whistler, he spent four years mastering upscale and fine dining at Buffalo Mountain Lodge in Banff. With a dream of working in a smokehouse, Patty eagerly joined Prairie Dog Brewing in late 2023, bringing his expertise in quality-driven cuisine and onsite butchering. He thrives on creating exceptional guest experiences, often stepping out of the kitchen for Clifford tours or carving stations at events. Outside of work, Patty enjoys side-by-siding, camping, cheering on the New York Giants (despite the losses), and coaching football. We’re thrilled to have his passion and dedication on our team!
Restaurant Ops Manager: Pascal Mckillcan
Pascal recently joined Prairie Dog Brewing as our dedicated Restaurant Operations Manager, bringing over 15 years of experience from some of Banff’s most prestigious restaurants, including Saltlik, The Maple Leaf, and Park Distillery. A Red Seal Journeyman Cook, Pascal has spent his career excelling in busy kitchens with a strong focus on exceptional service and food quality. His passion for building and empowering teams is at the heart of his leadership style, fostering growth and engagement without relying on fear tactics—a refreshing approach in the industry. Outside of work, Pascal is a proud father who loves cooking for his family, traveling to Asia, and supporting his wife in her entrepreneurial pursuits. We’re thrilled to have Pascal’s expertise and vision helping us elevate our guest experience every day!
