FOOD

Other guidebooks encourage readers to "eat at your hotel." Not only is this not helpful, it's misleading. The village of Lake Louise may exist only to serve travelers, but there are good dining options serving all budgets.

Casual

If you don't feel like a cooked breakfast, start your day off at S Laggan's Mountain Bakery (Samson Mall, 403/552-2017, 6am-8pm daily, lunches $8-12), the place to hang out with a coffee and a freshly baked breakfast croissant, pastry, cake, or muffin. The chocolate brownie is delicious (order two slices to save having to line up twice). If the tables are full, order takeout and enjoy your feast on the riverbank behind the mall.

For a casual meal, head to Bill Peyto's Cafe in the Lake Louise Alpine Centre (203 Village Rd., 403/522-2200, 7:30am-9:30pm daily, $12-18), where the food is consistent and well priced. A huge portion of nachos is $8, pasta is $12-14, and stir-fries range $12-15.

Across the Trans-Canada Highway, the Lodge of the Ten Peaks, at the base of the Lake Louise winter resort (403/522-3555), is open 7:30am-10:30am daily in summer for a large and varied breakfast buffet that costs a super-reasonable adult $15, child $10. An even better deal is to purchase a breakfast/gondola ride combo for adult $35, child $17 (the gondola ride alone is $32). The buffet lunch (11:30am-2:30pm) is $22, or $40 with the gondola ride.
