Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in Lake Louise

"This stay has listed several different cleanliness practices. Featuring a rooftop terrace, an indoor pool and a Jacuzzi, Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise offers charming, modern and themed rooms. It is also minutes from Lake Louise Town's well-known attractions and landmarks."

"Highly recommended Golden Lake Room at Fairmont Lake Louise!. The floor of the room is relatively high, Lake Louise is out of the window, and the view is very good!. The rooms are relatively new and should have been renovated later."

"The Station offers an historic interior dining room, a sunny patio overlooking a flourishing heritage garden, and a historic dining car--the Delamere. They offer a great selection of contemporary cuisine and an excellent selection of wines. You can enjoy your meal in the Station building or enjoy the luxury of the Delamere just a few steps away."

"The Station Restaurant and Heritage Railway Station is a historic space that was built in 1910 and served as the local depot for the Canadian Pacific Railway. The menu includes baked Camembert, burgers, schnitzel, ribs, and salmon. I would highly recommend the schnitzel, especially if you have worked up your appetite from all the hikes."

"We came here during covid restrictions so it was takeout only. We called ahead and it was about a 30min wait to pickup our seafood chowder, French onion soup…”more"

"First, the advantages: very close to Lake Louise; the hotel is very old; staff service is welcoming, including restaurant service staff; parking is convenient; there is also a small spa on the roof that has not had time to try. Disadvantages: The hotel is too long, set up for a long time, there is no passenger elevator, if you live on the second floor and above, carrying a heavier suitcase, it is a little laborious; the cabin that allows double occupancy is small, only able to get out of bed and a short The cabinet is visible in the house, and the corner is neglected to clean up (in order to find the socket, the low cabinet is removed...). The type of room we stayed in was called a “chalet” and the cabin just said it was a wooden structure."

"It has such a warm and rustic feel with magnificent views of the Victoria Glacier. Their menu highlights Rocky Mountain Cuisine with Canadian ingredients such as elk and bison, sustainable seafood, locally sourced vegetables, and prairie-grown grains. They also have an extensive award-winning Canadian wines list from central B.C."

"Located at just a five-minute walk from the shores of Lake Louise itself, the Deer Lodge is a somewhat historic building, which follows the theme of old and rustic housing. The outdoor pool overlooks the Victoria Glacier, and as you can imagine, the view is simply amazing!. Photo from Deer Lodge website"

"Innovative European alpine cuisine is featured at the intimate Walliser Stube restaurant and wine bar. Choose from a tempting variety of classic Swiss, German and Alpine dishes influenced by regional styles, or experience our authentic Swiss Fondue."

"For something fun and a little different, sample this Swiss eatery's fondues and raclettes. Choose from bison, beef, tuna, or seafood in broth...Read More"

"The property has 5+ restaurants and bar and my favorite restaurants were the Lakeview Lounge and Walliser Stube for the truffle fondue!"

"Constructed in 1927 as a way station for Swiss mountaineering guides leading clients up to the summit of Mt Victoria, this twin-level log chalet looks like something out of the pages of Heidi. Nestled in a quiet... Top ChoicePub Food in Banff Town"

"No driving today, instead you’ll be transported by horseback to the Plain of Six Glaciers Tea House. If horses aren’t your thing, you can also hike to the tea house."

"There are too many good restaurants inside Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise to count, but among the best: Alpine Social, a modern-day apres-ski hangout with 20 Canadian bourbons and whiskeys to choose from in addition to souped-up pub fare; and Walliser Stube, a dark, moody German and Swiss-inspired eatery, where the fondue is everything. The generously poured hot toddies at Lakeview Lounge make for a warming indulgence after a long day on the slopes, and each table looks out onto the water."

"The classic Old Fashioned can’t go unmentioned and Alpine Social at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise does it justice. Their redesigned lounge is a mountain-modern cozy retreat that was meant for the Old Fashioned; crafted with Alberta Premium Dark Horse Rye, maple syrup, black walnut bitters, topped with an Okanagan cherry, and a lemon twist. Order the warm mini doughnuts to match, they’re dusted with cinnamon and come with a delectable maple dip."

"Inspired by the glory days of Canadian mountaineering, Alpine Social is the place to eat, meet and celebrate in Lake Louise. It’s the perfect place to enjoy hearty, gourmet comfort food after a day of mountain adventure."

"Family owned restaurant located in Samson Mall is convenient for families. Their menu offers a variety of options from hearty meals to children's menus."

"At Mountain Restaurant you can have both a scenic view and a delicious dinner. Our family owned and operated restaurant in Lake"

"Canyon-clinging catwalks will lead you through the gorge to two waterfalls- the Lower Falls at 1.1 km, then the Upper Falls at 2.7 km. Most people end their hike at the Upper Falls, but we recommend carrying on another 3 kilometers to the Ink Pots. Here you can enjoy seven greenish-blue pools of spring water surrounded by open meadows. It’s a fantastic place for a quiet picnic."

"Morning: Johnston Canyon Afternoon: Banff Gondola or Tunnel Mountain Hike or East of Rundle Hike (In Canmore) Evening: Dinner in Banff (the Town) If you are doing to Calgary to Banff drive in the morning then you can push the activities above to later in the day since Banff in the summer has a lot of day lights and the sun does not set till 10pm or so at night."

"There are several trails around Lake Louise including one up to the Agnes Tea House and the Fairview Lookout point. Get here early since the parking lot wasn’t very big. Though, there were shuttle buses from offsite locations to take visitors here."

"You will spend some time around quaint little mountain towns: Canmore, Banff, Lake Louise, travel through the World famous Icefields Parkway and visit the largest National Park in the Canadian Rockies - Jasper. On the way back west to Vancouver this guide will take you via Wells Gray Provincial Park and back along the Sea to Sky Highway to give you a chance to see all the things you didn't manage to see on the way up."

"40 minutes from Banff is the beautiful Lake Louise. Lake Louise is known for its turquoise, glacier-fed lake ringed by high peaks and overlooked by a stately chateau (Hotel Chateau Lake Louise). Access to the lake is free."

"Most visitors do not know about Yoho National Park but it has some amazing lakes and waterfalls such as the Emerald Lake, Takakkaw Falls, Wapta Falls, and Kicking Horse River. If you were able to do more each day during your 3 days in Banff and have extra time, then you should definitely try to add Yoho National Park to your Banff summer itinerary. You can also check out this Canadian Rockies itinerary to see some other ideas for your Banff visit."

"Emerald Lake is not in Banff but in neighboring Yoho National, making it one of the best lakes near Banff. Given its close proximity, accessibility, and natural beauty, it felt wrong not to include it. Emerald Lake is a stunning lake and makes for a great family-friendly day out."

"There are numerous stops on the Icefield Parkway such as Bow Lake, Peyto Lake, Columbia Icefield, Athabasca waterfalls and hiking trails. You won’t have enough time to drive the entire Icefield Parkway and most people drive an hour to the Peyto Lake viewing point before they turn back to Lake Louise. Peyto Lake is another alpine glacier fed lake located off the Icefield Parkway, about 40km northwest of Lake Louise. Most people don’t visit the lake itself but rather walk up to the view point to admire the lake from above."

"Some stops worth mentioning include Athabasca Falls, Athabasca Glacier, Cirrus Mountain Viewpoint, Chephren Lake, and Bow Lake. One of my favourites is Peyto Lake, which is a lake shaped like a wolf that is surrounded by endless amounts of pine trees and mountain ranges. The water is so blue it looks like Kool-Aid (maybe it is, who knows)."

"Do not miss out on Athabasca falls, Pyramid Lake, Peyto Lake, Bow Lake, and Abraham Lake to see the frozen ice bubbles. We did not get to see this but I know I’ll have to make another visit back!"

"The most iconic lake in Banff National Park and the one that EVERYONE is trying to get to, Moraine Lake. While it’s most popular for canoe rentals, you can paddle board on Moraine Lake. If you had your heart set on paddle boarding on Moraine Lake, you’ll need to beat the rush to get a parking spot before they close the road when the parking lot is full."

"The waters of this glacial lake are famous for being a vivid turquoise. Light reflecting off particles of glacial rock flour gives the lake its hue. The intense color and water level both peak in late June, but the lake is stunning any time of year."
