"Absolutely blew our belly’s, the food was excellent the turkey sandwich and brisket burger were to die for and the portions of them… WOW yum. Ross W was our service host and he was knowledgeable and entertaining (we had our one year old) all around awesome a must if you are at Lake Louise ski fields"

"An excellent place to stop in for a beer after a hike. The views are amazing and they have happy hour from 2-5pm when we were there and live music some days. The beer is excellent. We were going to ride the Gondola up and have a drink but staff in the lodge said this was a better option and turned out it was!"
Beth Denny
"Stopped for ice cream- salted caramel in a waffle cone was da bomb! The vibe, the setting at the base of the mountain, the view - all worth it! Didn't taste the food but people around me were having lunch. The lady at the bar was super nice and friendly. Great place to stop before or after the gondola ride!"
