Cappuccino lovers, you must stop here. The food is excellent and the service is quick. Really great grab and go spot, and great value.

Variably difficult to rank. The thing is - it can be good, average, or not good. Depending on the day or the cook. Apparently. One day breakfast toast good. Next day? Charred rubble. Different cook. Very different result. This applies to almost all the food. I had a wrap with hot sauce for flavour. It turned out to be hot sauce with some wrap. Hot sauce soaked into wrap. Flowing out of the food. Soaking the packaging itself. I certainly didn’t ask for extra - that’s an option. But it was inedible. But prior order of same thing? Great! So go figure. We’ve eaten here a lot, summer and winter. And you kind of have to hope for the best. Cautiously optimistic as they say. You’ll note most places in Banff or at the Lake get high rankings. And why not? Look around you! Mountains. Vacation. It’s all wonderful. And couple that with limited options and it’s inevitable that it’s mostly 5 stars for most places. Drop Trailhead in Calgary by the Costco and the same food might get different outcomes for rankings. That’s all I’m saying. One final note - I have read some of the negative 1 star reviews and found the responses by the Owner to be only slightly veiled sarcasm. This is not a good look. And I was going to put 4 stars but one off for that. It’s unnecessary - reply as you see fit, your choice, but if people take the time to review a place and read your reply know that snarkiness is not an attractive quality. Overall? It’ll always be packed because places that actually get to operate in the Park are few and far between. But be prepared for variability of outcome - good or bad. And just chalk it up to the wonders of differences. And enjoy your day!

food was great. Sam treated me accordingly like a repeat customer but unfortunately his manager / coworker dampened the mood!
Thank you Sam for great service!

When you're well-travelled, tired and hungry it can be hard to find lunch that the whole family agrees on. Dropping in here to this unassuming cafe in the main centre of Lake Louise was a decision made with few other options...however we were pleasantly surprised! The coffee was great, sandwiches and wraps were balanced and flavourful. Good portion sizes, staff were relatively fast (considering the lineup!) and everything tasted fresh. We went back three days in a row to test out half of the menu and were happy every time.
Honestly, worth leaving the ski hills for 45 minutes just to come eat lunch down here and then go back up!
Went there to support local business but it turns out its local first, and not first coms first serve which as a tourist wasnt something i expected. I saw multiple people jump lines get their order before paying which made the waiting time long, also got a hot beverage which was not at all hot. I would prefer to give one star but gave one out of the courtesy which they didnt have. I hope this helps to improve their approach.
The best BLTs and Reubens I've ever had! So good we had brunch there the next day too. The menu is extensive for such a small cafe and the drip coffee selection is varied enough too. Lots of walk-ins.

Get The Gobbler sandwich for a hearty breakfast - it was so good. Also recommend the Canadiano latte with maple and white chocolate. Started getting crowded around 8:15.

The quality of the food has gone downhill. You don’t get much anymore. I was excited about the donair which I had before but this time got a salad wrapped in a pita with a few small pieces of meat. Not coming here again. Do better!

Stopped in during a busy rush and was impressed by how fast they moved. I had the burger, a chai maple latte, and a cookie—all hit the spot. The burger was filling, the latte was warm and well balanced, and the cookie was a nice finish. Limited seating, but it’s an efficient, reliable stop in Lake Louise.

The sandwiches are prepared fresh in front of you with good quality ingredients and they taste excellent. This restaurant offers a good bang for your buck as well, especially compared to the other prices of nearby businesses. Service is fast and pleasant. The only drawback is that this café is busy and very small, so there was never any place to sit inside the building. But thankfully, there are picnic tables with gorgeous scenery nearby. I stopped here three times while I was in the region in September because it was such a good place to get breakfast!
