Their espresso is really good now. If you are an espresso enthusiast, I can recommend it. I hope it stays like this!

We start most Sunshine days at Java lift - get to the hill early to avoid traffic and catch the sunrise before the lifts open. Monogram coffee is one of my favourites from Calgary and the drinks are well made and worth the little extra. Delicious & fresh breakfast muffins, sandwiches and pastries. Don't forget to show your season pass for a discount 😀

I came to Banff with my wife and kids to celebrate 2 years of our marriage. Having managed to find someone to take care of the children, my wife and I decided to go up sunshine village and have a nice ski day. In order to get the day started we went to Java lift cafe and were very pleasantly greeted by Sven. Great barista, he had great chat, great service and made us amazing coffee! Would 100% recommend this cafe to anyone looking for a nice experience when visiting Sunshine Village.

Sven is the best barista I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. The latte he made me was exquisite and prepared with care.

I used to love this place so much and the best part about it was their crepes! Was so sad to hear that they don’t make/sell them anymore:(
Good spot to grab a coffee break off the hill.Don't get a tofu/veggie sandwich...the tofu was not edible, think shoe leather. Very disappointing, and not worth the price either.I didn't discuss with staff, no opportunity as it was busy.Go for a muffin or sweet instead, you will be much happier.
Ordered a cafe mocha. It was a great size and tasted exactly how I like them. I would definitely recommend this cafe for ski break.
Liam was friendly, quick and made some delicious Latte’s (even did a steamer for our little one). The perfect stop before heading up Standish Chair for hiking!
Please bring crepes back
Great little coffee shop in Sunshine Village, makes a great place for a hot afternoon coffee on snowboarding days. Friendly service and staff.
Not so great
Great little cafe coffee bar selling Starbucks coffee, sandwiches, and crepes even in the summer. Inside and outside seating. Ride the gondola up from Sunshine Village and there are lovely hikes to rock isle lake and around.
It's a nice cafe right in front of the Mt. Standish Express chairlift inside the lodge. Was pleasantly surprised to find delicious savory vegetarian crepe and sweet special of the day chocolate cake crepe. The price was very very reasonable considering it is in the sunshine village with very few options to eat.
