In 1927, Banff began holding an annual Highland Gathering and Scottish Music Festival at the end of August. By 1931, when this menu was issued, the festival was in its fifth year. I don’t know how many years it continued, but it doesn’t appear to have survived long after that. Perhaps it was a victim of the Depression.

This colorful menu was used on the Mountaineer and offers fish, chops, steaks, broiled or fried chicken, and calf’s liver along with the usual egg dishes. American favorites such as griddle cakes and French toast seem to be absent from the menu.
