Reviews of Bill Peyto's Cafe (Coffee Shop)

Amazingly good food for the price in Lake Louise. Portions are big, especially desserts.

Great food and service. Fair prices and good portion size. Kids loved the atmosphere.

the fries were terrible! they were soft inside and felt old and refried. sandwich and burger were good though, crispy bacon in the sandwich was delicious

Delicious meals. Might need to get there earlier as it is quite popular and might have to wait a bit. Good price. Good portions. Need vaccination passport to dine in. Would go back!

My worst take-out experience EVER! Can’t imagine how could they mess up my order TWICE! I ordered a burger and a fish-n-chips. The first time, they gave me two burgers. When I went back to them, the receptionist just opened the box and flipped the burger bun with her BARE FINGERS to check the order!!! I thought they would make me a new one so I said nothing. But when I opened the new container they gave to me, the first thing I saw was two finger-marks on my bun????I also asked for chipotle mayo instead of the regular Mayo on my burger. After checking with me TWICE, they still gave me the regular Mayo????In terms of food, the fish-n-chips is super greasy, and they clearly just assemble all store-bought ingredients for the burger. I can't understand where is the 4.4 google rating comes from. But I’ll never come back again for sure.

My new favourite restaurant out here! I loved the food, and the decor is awesome to. I also appreciate the small size; it never seems too crowded. The prices seemed very reasonable, especially considering the size of the meals. I loved their craft beer selection to! I will definitely come back whenever possible!

This place has good vibes. I got a veggie burger, which seemed like a frozen grocery burger and not restaurant made, but I don't know for sure. It was still good and they covered it in jalapenos and it was nicely spicy. My companion had the elk burger and said it was delicious. Friendly, warm staff.

Ben Schugel

Came here because of the positive reviews and expectations were exceeded! Very reasonably priced, delicious food and generous portions. Quaint, rustic atmosphere. We ate most of our meals here while staying at the Fairmont (and the food was better!). Friendly staff. Will return for sure whenever I’m in the area for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

It is hidden gem, we were staying at lake Louise inn and found this spot across our inn. Bill Peyton's service was amazing and their food out of the league. One of the best poutine I had and their elk burger was so good. I would recommend anybody who visit Lake Louise to try their food and experience joy you will have when having their food.

Off the beaten path, this place has a great local vibe with terrific food and service. It also has a great selection of local beers!!! The staff are super helpful and accommodating and is strongly suggest suggest the Angry Peyto Burger!! The additional jalapeños really kick it up a notch. And fish and chips are delicious!

I had Bill Peyto burger with poutine on the side. I expected this place to be overpriced since it’s in Lake Louise, but I was wrong. Prices are fair, food is great and servers are very friendly as well. Burger wasn’t anything extraordinary, but the patty was properly seasoned and juicy in the middle. Poutine was awesome. They did the gravy the right way. There was some excess gravy that would have soaked up my fries, but I put some of it for my patty and it improved my burger significantly. I’d definitely recommend this place to my friends and family.

Got food poison here after having the chicken fingers with hot sauce. Hygiene might be an issue with this restaurant. If you don’t want to spend the whole night vomiting, avoid this restaurant!

been here 2 years ago and always had good memories of this restaurant. this time we stayed at HI Lake Louise Appine Centre and the Bill Peyto's cafe is right in the building. it offers great food and the staffs are quite friendly. would like to enjoy other dishes next time I visited Lake Louise.

Delicious dinner spot with friendly service. After a failed attempt to eat at another Lake Louise local restaurant (very upscale restaurant), we chose Bill Peyto's and we were not disappointed. The staff was extremely kind, and all of our food was so fresh and delicious. I'm glad now that we ended up supporting a small local business rather than giving our money elsewhere.

Bill Peyto's is a wonderful dining option in the Village. Quality food, reasonable prices, lovely rustic ambiance, and friendly staff. We came here first for dinner, really enjoying the elk burger and chili, and liked it well enough to come back for a hearty breakfast another day. I was very pleasantly surprised by the nice timber framed building where the cafe is located. This is a great place to get away from the crowds in the area. The origami hopping frog presented to us by our waiter at breakfast was the icing on the cake.

The chicken bacon mushroom Alfredo was absolutely to die for. Such tender and flavorful chicken and the sauce was so good. I didn't necessarily expect to have one of the better pastas I've had in recent memory at a small diner in Lake Louise, and it was a fantastic surprise!

What a wonderful hidden gem in Lake Louise! We went here two times, we enjoyed the food so much the first time we went again the next day. The Cafe is not very well advertised (we didn't see any road signs or anything that would indicate that the restaurant was here), so just know that it is in the Hi Canada hostel. The food here is very reasonably priced compared to other options in Lake Louise, and the portions were large, perfect after a long hike. We ordered the following: - Alpine clubhouse sandwich: our personal favorite, and also massive. Can easily be shared among two people (or one person with a huge appetite). - Elk burger - Battered cod - Alberta beef chili Everything except for the beef chili comes with a side, with one of the options being a salad. This was really nice as sometimes it's hard getting some greens in during vacation. Staff was very nice both times and food was prompt (we did go during slower times, around 1-3pm). Overall, would highly recommend!

Tasty food. Service is okay. Not bad. Food is nicely presented and had a pleasant experience here. Vegetarians can try Falafel. Good quantity.

The food is very reasonably priced and is delicious! We had lunch and breakfast and the quality lived up to the rating! Had french toasts, the scrambled cheese, fish and chips and the veggie burger. The going angry option for burgers is a must add.

Was here for dinner last night and forgot to take photos... Brunch was great! Got the 2 peytos grand slams and an order of pancakes. Everything was cooked to perfection except we didn't like the ham... The bacon was nice and crispy and eggs were super tasty too. The pancakes had powdered sugar and the maple syrup appears to be the actual maple syrup, not the fake aunt Jemima corn syrup. Would come back again in the future!

TL;DR Food and service was great. Auto gratuity on takeout is not acceptable. Stopped by this place twice with a large party when I was in Banff. The first time was great. We had a dine-in. The food was tasty and the service was great. I appreciated that the staff mentioning that group larger than 6 would get 15% automatic gratuity on the bill. I gladly tipped 18% for the friendly service. We returned for a second time a few days later. Since all their tables were taken, this time was a takeout. It was not so pleasant of an experience. We assumed the automatic tipping doesn't apply to takeout as tipping traditionally is for good services, but there's bare minimum services involved in a takeout. We were proven wrong when we were given the bill. Applying auto gratuity on takeout is neither cool nor customary even in NA. If you are ordering takeout with a large group, make sure you visit this place as groups smaller than 6. So at least you get the freedom to decide how much you want to tip.

Has some poutine and toffee cake. Best ever. I would recommend this as a stop for some great food.

claudia lorena barrera

Very good food for a decent price around lake Louise. The service was also really good.

Martins Upmanis

We found this hidden gem by driving through the town. We did not want to drive in crowded Banff for a meal. They are hidden next to the hostel. Warm and super welcoming service and atmosphere. Stayed for a hearty meal—perfect place for explorers, hikers and anyone looking for a relaxed atmosphere.

Patrick Cheng

Money well spent! We came to grab coffee but ended up sitting down for lunch. Warm atmosphere is welcoming once you step into the restaurant. Very delicious. We will come back again before we leave Banff.

This place is amazing, you need to stop here for food if you’re in Lake Louise!! It’s attached to a hostel but make it even better, staff is amazing and have great recommendations for things. Breakfast, lunch and dinner Is amazing. Everyone is very friendly!!! Definitely followed covid protocols with cleaning. Love that you get a jug of water when you sit down. We got the elk burger, jerk chicken, camp breakfast, and the bill Payto burger. Taste and flavour was all there got the sweet potato fries were mouth watering good. This is a must place!!

Staff was super attentive and nice. Food was filling and tasty, and we didn’t have to wait too long for the food. I will probably come again.

Jacqueline Wang

I love breakfast, I go out to restaurants almost only for breakfast. I had very little expectations going in as it's a small hard to find place but... Wow was I wrong! The waitress took our drink and food order at the same time, we got our coffee and boom the food arrived right away, hot and fresh and perfect... Like hot and fresh, almost too hot to eat it was that fresh... And it was great... If you put some effort into finding this little gem, you won't be disappointed.

Great comfort food for decent prices given the limited options available at dinner time. Cassandra and mark handled the large influx of guests really well. Went here twice in two days

Totally recommended! The location is cozy and it has a warm feeling. Prices are in line with the quality/quantity. The staff and the owner are really kind and helpful. All the covid protocols are respected.

Came here on a Monday evening, place was full, however the service was excellent and wait time was quick. We had a IPA, chicken noodle soup, chilli and butter chicken. The butter chicken was so delicious, I really polished it off. It came with nan bread. The soup and chili were comforting. Nice cozy decor as well. I would go back again!

Service was great, the prices are a steal for good eats in the national park. We had the beef burger and butter chicken and both were amazing & filling (super important post big hike today). Definitely recommend!

Food was excellent, a little pricey and kids pizzas aren't all that.

Really good breakfast! Awesome fluffy pancakes, french toast, delicious salmon bagle and a very ripe fruit bowl. Good, friendly staff. They are also happy to accomodate to allergies like diary if you ask. (See my bagle without cream)

Bimal

One of the very few restaurants in this area, but definitely one of the best!!! The staff was very courteous and the food was great!
