REVIEWS OF Bill Peyto's Cafe IN Alberta

Alex Monterrubio

The angry veggie burger is amazing. The fries were really tasty. The food here is better than the food at the Fairmont. The staff is also very nice and friendly. Highly recommend visiting this place ☺️

Katherine Fines

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

Heather Mae

Great portions for value. Excellent service and super busy! Food was also pretty tasty

Nima Najmaei

Still the best menus, prices, & customer service in Lake Louise after 20+years.

Chels

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

Maya M

First time went to Lake Louis, this is the only good restaurant there, I tried soup and burger there, both so delicious.

Catherine Wang

Very good service. Food is solid but not fantastic. Good value for the area though

Carl-Hugo Marcotte

Stayed at Lake Louise for a few days and came in for lunch. Great service and excellent food. Nice patio.

This place is a hidden gem. Whether it be breakfast, lunch, or dinner, the food is tasty, the portions are large, and the prices are reasonable. My favorite dishes are the Peyto Burger, and the Elk Burger; you cannot go wrong with either of them. Fresh toppings on the burgers, fries that are done properly, good quality meat, and buns that manage to hold their shape without getting soggy or crushed. I would also recommend the Apple Pie with Ice Cream for dessert. We have been there several times, and the food is consistently good, as is the service. The waiters are friendly, and the food does not take too long to come out. I would highly recommend this to anyone making a stop in Lake Louise.

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

Great service, mediocre food. Eggs were over cooked (clearly to hot of a pan), with an excessive amount of cheese, and dried out potatoes. I wish I had just cooked oatmeal in my truck, but was nice to use some wifi and have a friendly waiter. A few changes to the kitchen could elevate this place to a “must stop” breakfast spot in Banff, instead of another dingy highway diner.

Peggy Baker

Very very reasonable restruraunt for the price matchs the quality of the food it suppose to be! Highly recommend!

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!

Rebecca Steen

Always wonderful food for an affordable price. Reliable, yummy, low-key.

Very delicious food, reasonable prices, fast service, generous size meals. Only good things to say about the Cafe and serving personnel. Highly recommended. Mashroom soup, burgers, salads, kids meals -all exceeded our expectations.

Wayne Falk

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.

lankun weidner

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!

Jeff Courtney

Elk burger was great with chipotle mayo. Staff were super friendly. Make sure you get a delicious brownie to support the young skiiers.

Stopped in for lunch with the family after a hike. Service was friendly, quick, and food was delicious & hit the spot. Happy to visit a restaurant that values the safety of their patrons and staff by participating in the restrictions exemption program - quick and painless process.

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!

İrem S.

Food quality is quite good. Portion is generous. Service is very friendly although speed is slow. Overall a cool joint!

Mark Hanssen

The food was soo good! Had the chicken burger made it angry and it did not disappoint! Best place to eat near Lake Louise by far!

Zach Moses

This may just be the best place to eat in town! Although it is located in a high end hostel and has limited capacity (had a 30 min waiting line most of the evening), the staff was friendly, the place was clean, prices were reasonable and the food was great. This isn't your high end gourmet food, but just good tasting regular food that will fill you up and leave you satisfied after a long hike.

Valérie R

We ordered the Alberta Beef Chili, Angry Peyto Burger and the Thai stir fry with chicken. Everything was delicious. The Thai stir fry portion was huge and was loaded with veggies. The chili was hearty and filling and the burger was satisfying with a nice kick from the jalapeños. Would come back again.

akhil mohandas

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.

T_rance

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.

Dont come here if you don't want to ruin your trip!! Very disappointed in the discrimination, do better. It is 2021.

James

Ate here four times when we had our five day trip in Banff ???? because we stayed just on the other side of the road. it’s really good. I really liked their soup, fettuccine, and elf burger!!! The house salad dressing is amazing and the fries are very crispy????

John Kutasz

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.

Blampin

Food was excellent! Great burger and the salad was huge. Enjoyed the local selection of sodas as well. All well priced. Staff was very friendly. Hostel guests are so lucky to have such a good place to get their food!

Rakshit Patnana

Great hidden gem in LL. Big portions and great service. Poutine is a must!

Pakho Cheng

Delicious Food 100% recommend this restaurant, friendly and efficient service! The kids each shared a brownies as they were out of ice cream to go with the kid's meals. Our server was just lovely, and attentive. ????

George Pal

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!

Philippe Normandin

I stayed in Lake Louise Inn but even their front desk recommended this place over their own restaurant. I ate here 3 times and the food was excellent every time. I liked the house salad you can choose with all the main dishes. The service varies by person, and some are quite friendly and will chat to you if they’re not busy.

Ruiyao Huang

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!

Ali Hassan

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.

Richard Nguyen

Awesome little place! Safe Covid protocols, great service from the staff, and food was delicious. My husband had the elk burger, and I had the chicken jerk burger with house salad (pictured). Would definitely recommend :)

Wait time could be long but worth it. Super comfy food after our long hikes. Do take their soups if they have, and enjoy the burger!

Great place to get a quick cheap meal in the village - especially for guests of the Lake Louise inn. Friendly staff, warm interior, clean environment - highly recommend the elk burgers.

Nancy Samuels

Terrible waiting for almost 45 minutes. Food is average and over priced. $10 for a small glass of beer. Limited choice in the village. Try the Old station restaurant for much nicer food.

ANewPaul

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.

Ann Ng

Attached to the hostel, Bill Peyto's is an impressive little unassuming cafe. It looks kind of basic on the outside, and the inside to a certain extent, but we were pleasantly surprised. The service was fantastic, super friendly and helpful and professional. On top of that, the food was wonderful. I got the quesadilla as my entree, it was delicious. I mean, it's not exactly daring or creative, but it's very well assembled and cooked and presented. I'd recommend it. That goes the same for the burger my partner ordered. Complete with fries, he very much enjoyed it. Kind of a perfect simple lunch between other more grand meals. Get away from the crowds at Lake Louise for a moment and enjoy a pleasant and delicious meal here!

Jason Chen

Great food, the paytos burger was amazing. And so close to town. Would recommend 100%

Maurice Wirkner

Food is not bad, service? I wish there was a word worse than worst, simple as that!

Ben Harbak

Good food and great price. Staff service was above average...I hope the owner pays them well because the service we received is equal if not better than higher class restaurants. Seriously they are great. If you want to get your eat on go here. You won't be disappointed!!!

David Casanova

Delicious Burgers & locally brewed draughts

Alzbeta Nedvedova

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.

Kyle LeGrow

This is a hidden gem that you have to seek out. The food is delicious and customer service is great!

M Boychuk

After hearing that this is where locals go for a casual meal, we decided to walk there for lunch from the Lake Louise Campground. We all enjoyed our meals. The side salad was perfect: fresh mixed baby greens with tomatoes, cucumber, and grated carrots on top. It came with a 3” piece of baguette with butter. The poutine was not remarkable: cheese wasn’t at all melted, the gravy was fine but nothing special in flavor, and there was so much gravy it was like French fry stew. The elk burger was good. The chicken fingers are what you’d expect. The split pea soup tasted homemade - truly delicious! The roast beef sandwich came on white bread (not sure if there was a choice) and my brother-in-law loved it. The fries were very tasty. The IPA (sorry, I don’t remember which one) had a lovely fresh hop aroma and a fair level of bitterness — delicious. We all enjoyed our meals. It’s a short walk between the restaurant and Samson Mall (the shopping area with the Info Centre). But Google Maps doesn’t know the shortcut for walking. From the grassy area in front of the restaurant’s front doors take a path toward the large red-roofed buildings (hotel?) next door. Walk through their parking lot to the right and take the pedestrian bridges across the Pipestone River. You will be behind the market in the Samson Mall. If you are walking around the area using Google Maps, you might get confused as we were because Google doesn’t show the Pipestone River and it’s bridges. We kept thinking the river was the Bow River which meets the Pipestone behind the Mall. The restaurant is part of a hostel and they gave me a walking map that I’ve included in the pics.

Elsa Langill

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

Oscar L.

Great food at a reasonasble price. Plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Serving portions were great!

Syrah

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!

Sundar Annamalai

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!

Christina MacNeill

This place is AMAZING! highly recommend going here if you’re in the area. The food is outstanding as is the service. We had fish and chips (crispy and cooked to a golden brown perfection), sweet potato fries, sticky toffee pudding cake (probably the best I have had in a while) and vanilla ice cream (legit out of this world delicious ice cream). The server was very friendly and accommodating. I still dream about that food weeks later.

Clifford King

We spent 3 nights in the hotel and we didn’t use the kitchen because this cafe is AMAZING! The breakfast is huge. the prices are very cheap. Very big portions. And for dinner the pasta and burgers were delicious ???? the persons are very friendly. once the place was full, there is a lobby where you can wait and they will call you. ???? recommended!

Laura Young

Very nice and friendly staff and feel relaxed by the interior design. The burger was so delicious. This place is the anytime of the day stop to have an amazing meal to keep you on that beautiful road trip. Sticky toffee cake with their freshly brewed coffee hit the spot after the main meal.

Vimarsh

Not a large sign to know that there is an absolute hidden gem for tasty food inside

Great Salmon Fettuccini. Recommended as the best place in town to eat. Located at the Hostel International site.

Flavio Paganin

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.

Aeku Patel

It's worth the search. Without obvious signage I tend to shy away. Tried to find this place a few times over the years and was close, but gave up thinking it was only a hostel. Thanks to my Wife for finally figuring it out. This is easily one of the best meals in LL and yes I'm comparing it to all the meals we've had over the years at the Fairmont. I'm not going to go on gushing about it. But I can honestly say once you're there the food, drinks, and service are absolutely fan frickin tastic. The surprises don't' stop there. Once you're pleasantly full, half cut, and ready to leave the gentleman will bring your bill. It was less than half of what I expected. How often does that happen? First time for everything.

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!

Brian Park

Great place. Great service. Great people. Great and fresh food. Love this place

Kind of overlooked this place before. And I wish we hadn't. Restaurant is open for seating but was rather full. We just got take out. Food was amazing and decent amount for take out. Will definately be back. The hostle that is is in looks really nice to. Might actually have to stay here next time we spent the weekend in Lake Louise.

This is not a gourmet restaurant, but it is a good place to fuel up after a long day. The portions are large, and the food can be best described as hearty. The service isn't the best, but it gets the job done. Note that there are usually wait espcially in the evening.

Shannon Law

A nice respite from campfire cooking. Located at the hostel, the wait was short and food was exactly what we needed. The service was kind and prompt. Would recommend for unassuming fare that is done right.

Went for early dinner at 5. The service wasn't the quickest but may have been that they were short staffed for such an early dinner. The server I had, tried his best to handle take out, other customers and myself. He was very helpful and had a good attitude. I got a burger and poutine. The poutine was good but the burger patty needed more seasoning.

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.

Jennifer Carrisal

Only if there was a zero star. Seeing discrimination in a cafe in Canada for the first time! I usually post very positive comments and reviews. I was so optimistic about this place and I thought this would be a great place to eat as we were staying at the hi hostel. The cafe refused to serve us. The first waiter refused to talk to us and just called the other waiter. The second waiter said they have no place for us and we have to order pick ups. They did this while they accommodated other people (with no reservations in advance) right after we placed a pick up order. When I brought up the issue nicely with the servant she was so rude and said it is what it is! She did not care and she did not even offer a single apology! So disappointed and sad to see such behaviour. Our “good” mood for the beautiful Lake Louise was ruined for no reason …

LeSabre The White

Cozy, clean restaurant with fantastic breakfasts and great prices for the mountains! Glad we stopped!

Isabella Di Tursi

Food is good. Great place to relax and enjoy your food. Some food options are available only after 4pm. It will be great if they can provide it from at least 1PM.

April Grindheim

Had the Elk Burger here. It was very well cooked and a bit tough, but quite tasty. The sweet potato fries were crazy good though. Maybe the best I've ever had. The interior is not fancy but they make up for it with great food. Staff were very friendly and seated us quickly. Couldn't find any parking at the hostel. So had to park a bit further away. Not sure if I was allowed to park in the hostel spots if I'm just visiting the cafe.

Bryan Synn

Truly nice and cozy Café/Restaurant. Also, the staff is super friendly! The food was delicious and they also have great beer on the tap! Thanks, we will be definitely back ????

Corey Martin

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.

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.

Maria Benyaminov

We enjoyed a great lunch today! Cold beer and great food! Peyton's has never disappointed and we have been visiting for 30 years!

David P

It was recommended by a hotel staff so we went to check it out. It's attached to a hostel and the price was very cheap but the quality of the burger I had was really great. People working there were super friendly too. Strongly recommended.

Neil Stevens

Been here multiple times over the past year. Always loved their salmon pasta and sweet potato fries. Today, we arrived into lake louise after a 700+ km drive from Vancouver late at night, but when the cafe was open. Tired, wanted to check in and freshen up before eating. Asked for dinner to be packed/take out. Apparently they have a policy to not do take-outs after 6:30 pm for whatever twisted reason. That to me is unacceptable. If you have an open kitchen, it should NOT matter if you eat in or take out. There is virtually no freaking reason one cannot take out food from your restaurant. There are very few options to eat in Lake louise and most of them are not good. Highly disappointed in your customer service. Will never return.

Zack Deis

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!!

Very friendly staff, great tasting food, we had soups, elkburger, butter chicken, chilly, (my only constructive criticism would be about the butter chiken...Taste great but I think it wasn't real chicken in it) I would go back any time to this establishment

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.

Really decent food at a good price for the area. The fries are dank AF. And the burger was really good. Especially with the jalapenos on it. Great little patio and attentive staff. Didn't give 5 stars only because the food was good, but not mindblowing. Y'all only get 5 stars for mindblowing food.

Tessa Dargue

Amazing staff, awesome food, great price.

Tenzin Chemi

It was good. Didn’t blow my mind. I went in a group of four after skiing. Dinner. I got the worst thing out of the four of us. I ordered the Italian poutine. It was good. The sauce was homemade. And it was awesome. Carrots, ground beef. A lot like the sauce I make. But there was too little sauce for too many fries. The key to poutine, I’ve found, is lots of sauce. Poutine was like US$9. My wife ordered the smoked salmon fettuccine Alfredo. It was awesome. And I usually turn my nose up at Alfredo. Smoke salmon was a unique flair. I would recommend it. Also ordered was the Fish and chips- excellent, better than most — and the burger— nice and juicy. The waiter was quirky in a good way. Honestly, the best place and biggest reason to go there was the story about the namesake — mountain man Bill Peyto — on the menu.

Anjuli Sutter

Food was good but service was absolutely horrible if you get Caitlin. Complete attitude throughout the whole process. There is definitely a lack of training on how to treat customers and will not be returning due to her.

Amazing service! Both server and cook worked their butts off to a very full dinning room. The aroma from the bustling kitchen was to die for!! We ordered the butter chicken and Mac & Cheese. Hands down, both meals were excellent, well presented and full of flavour!! Our server was very attentive, hospitable and engaging with all customers. I would say this is a must for dining when visiting Lake Louise! :)

Jessie T.

From quick research, the only reasonable priced spot with a solid selection of items. I had the fish n chips, cod was surprisingly fresh (no weird odour and quite flaky) but a little small. And the fries were not crispy. Ran it back the next day and had their smoked salmon alfredo, that was a solid dish, however a little small! I had to wait around 40 minutes to get seated the second day, but they were busy and didnt take a waitlist as opposed to the day before. Overall solid spot, would give 4.5 if it was possible!

Food is good and affordable in Lake Louise. The staff are very friendly. It’s right inside the hostel which makes it very convenient since I’m staying there. I ordered elk burger for lunch. Very tasty. For dinner I ordered sweet and sour pork rice. I was very full. Definitely will come back.

Great cafe. Came here on Sunday night for a late dinner. Our server was fantastic. He was polite, courteous, professional and I swear he was even able to read our minds. We had a burger, clam chowder soup, and sweet potato fries, all of which were delicious. Price was also pretty good for where they are located. I had thought that being located in the Lake Louise Village area that there'd be a "tourist attraction" bonus on all the prices, but not at all. With covid 19, your are subjected to an interview before entering, and the tables and chairs are all meticulously wiped down. I'd come back for sure.

Huge portions with a reasonable price. The elk burger was delicious.

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!

I was hungry and this restaurant is very close to our hotel hit the spot. Nice decor very cozy looking. Our server is relaxed friendly, gave us good recommendations. Food came out pretty quick. The Burger is great. And the so called "side salad " is HUGE!!! It's almost a entree size. My husband ordered teriyaki chicken sandwich he liked it too. We also tried the desert was super good and made us satisfied and feel guilty at the same time (considering the calories ),my husband laugh at me counting calories during vacation. Great dining experience. Thank you!

The cheapest bland uninspired food in lake louise.

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!

It was a wonderful breakfast, we will for sure be back. Thank you so much, wonderful experience.

Tasty food. Service was slow but they were short staffed. Lots of parking. Lots of last minute customers right before closing. Feel for these guys...but at least business was booming

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

My favorite reasonably priced restaurant in Lake Louise (not an easy thing to find in Lake Louise). It is part of the hostel too. The food is simple and well executed. They have outdoor seating too. It is open all year.

Another awesome experience at Bill Peyto’s. Big portions and reasonably priced. Cyril was our server, he made us feel very welcome here!

Avoid if you are a person of colour! My wife and I, both POC, came here for lunch after reading the reviews. We arrived at 11:30am. We were seated and ordered within a couple of minutes. 20-25 minutes later, two white males entered and also ordered quickly. We were shocked by how long it was taking since there was only one other table in the restaurant. We chalked it up to potentially new staff. During the next thirty minutes, the white gentlemen were provided updates and were looked after on 3 occasions. No one had come to our table since we entered. At 12:25pm, the white gentlemen were provided their meals. At that time, we asked for an explanation. The waiter could not provide us with one. Considering we waited for 1 hour and didn't get any food and did not get looked after once after seating, and considering the white men got their food in 25min and were looked after on 3 occasions, I can only assume this was racially motivated. Very disappointing. We left after the hour mark without any food or apology. Disclaimer: this is the first time in my life I have claimed racial discrimination.

Place is good; staff is very nice and helpful; food is average. Worth coming to at least once!

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)

Peter Frenette

Delicious food and excellent service! Price for food was reasonable.

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!
