Soup Sandwiches to the rescue!!…read more After a day of hiking and exploring in the Mountains, we were tired, sore, and hangry. Noshing throughout the day we were set on a good soup and sandwich combo. We checked multiple locations and either it was high-end foo foo or just more than we want or just worse. It was pub grub and they had one soup and they weren't sure what it was. We found Wild Flour. They offer multiple soups and sandwiches and a few treats. Kathy selected a carrot fennel bowl (massive) and served with fresh bread and butter, I had a meat and cheese grilled cheese on a focaccia bread, Of course we "shar-zies" and the comfort was enjoyed. The team at 630pm was helpful and prompt guided us as we had not eaten at Wild Flour. Good food, reasonably priced for Banff is a find. Go to Wild Flour and enjoy... we did.

Your standard overpriced coffee spot in popular tourist destination. Inside was busy and thus…read moredifficult to keep clean, so understandably tables needed to be picked up after and bathroom could use a once over. Iced chai was very tasty and flavor was on point! Iced mocha however tasted like iced DARK hot chocolate, at least 80% cacao type. Staff were helpful!

We went here this morning after Lake Louise and it hit the spot. We got 4 sandwiches/wraps…read more Chicken salad, the Houston (pulled pork), Greek wrap and chicken Caesar salad wrap. 2 hot drinks and banana bread. According to my family, all the sandwiches were good choices. I tried my daughter's chai which was perfect. This place is very small but it's good to take out. It was fast too. I read about it and was happy we tried it. Definitely scored an awesome place.

The food here is delicious and priced well…read more Walking in, I immediately noticed the size of the space. It's pretty tiny. There are maybe 5 or 6 tables inside, most for 2 people, so not a good place for a large group to try to eat in house. Big sign on the wall lists the menu, service was fast and polite. Problem is once you order you wait to pick up, and the service window is at the back, so it gets really crowded. I felt like I was constantly in someone's way, but that could be a me issue! All in all, delicious sandwiches and wraps for a great price.

When my bf and I were in Banff we were looking for a good coffee place before catching a bus to go…read moreto a skii lodge and Good Earth Coffeehouse was right next to the bus stop. Upon entering the inside was very cozy and felt like a wood cabin and there was not too long of a wait. We decided to get an iced mocha and add hazelnut syrup to it. This was really unique as they have an entire board of syrups that you are able to add ranging from caramel to Irish cream. The coffee was sweet, creamy, and delicious and the flavor was great!

The wait wasn't too long and we had a bus that was coming soon so we quickly placed our orders inside. The decor inside is cozy with some places to sit, so it seems like a nice place to chill. I decided to get an iced coffee with hazelnut syrup added to it, though they have a wide selection of syrups to choose from which I appreciated. They have ones like salted caramel, toffee, honey, irish cream, etc. so there are some interesting ones to choose from to add flavors to your drink. My coffee was pretty good, so I would say they got the job done. Pretty solid coffee spot, if you're in Banff I would recommend it if you want to grab some coffee to-go.

We went to a handful of coffee shops during our visit to Banff. Mountain Folk is the only one I…read morefound worth a second visit. The matcha was was best we found (5/5) and the cappuccino is very tasty. The appears to be a local vibe. Haven't tasted the food options but they are freshly made and others seem to be thoroughly enjoying their choices. Will return once more for our last day.

I'm glad I found a smoothie bowl café in Banff. Wish they were open a little later because I would…read moreneed a smoothie bowl for breakfast lunch and dinner. And I don't think I'm the only one because every time I went there, there was a line, always very busy. Tables go quickly. And honestly, the indoor seating area is cramped kind of an awkward layout. I wouldn't recommend eating there, but it is an option. Good vegan selection! Both smoothie bowls and Smoothies were vegan. Smoothie bowls were delicious and very cute. The vegan avocado brownie was too rich for our preference. Carmel Almond bar vegan - my favorite, not too sweet + vegan! The date granola bar was not vegan due to honey, but I already got it and it was pretty good. Coffee lattes very good! Little expensive but hit the spot.

3.5/5; got a 12oz mocha, 6cad, also got the cinnamon roll (6.50) and dulce de leche cronut (4.95)…read more Mocha was fine, jus some caffeine, not a huge coffee person so i cant tell if its good or not. Cinnamon roll and cronut they heated up. Cinnamon roll was gooddd, unique shape, but delish. Cronut was mid to me, choc ganache overpowered it all, some dulce de leche filling inside cronut. I like cronuts that are flaky but this was soggy as expected. Workers werent the nicest or friendliest. Decent coffee spot, have some baked goods or salty stuff too

We stopped in because there was no line, the coffee was excellent and we enjoyed our morning snack!…read moreIt's like an indoor shopping center so plenty of seating in the coffee shop and down the walking halls. What I liked best about this place was how fast their food and coffee came out. They seemed very well staffed and we barely waited for anything! Would recommend!

Another person in our group said the matcha was perfect as well. The building was very clean and had tons of seating. The baristas were super nice and friendly. Definitely coming back for more!

It was a fun way to start early mornings before a nice hike. Great coffee and a selection of buttery pastries. Plenty of seating. Beautiful interior. Even a play place on the second level! That's right, a little contained area with toys your little ones can use while you sit down to enjoy your warm drink uninterrupted. Fireplace seating was available as well. Highly recommend!

We got an apple cider, a lemon mint green tea and a couple treats- the tea biscuits, the blueberry crumble and the peanut butter bar. They were all really good and it's so interesting to learn how they operate the place up in the mountain. Definitely worth a stop on your hike

This was one of my motivations (aside from the views) of hiking around Lake Louise. I had seen so…read moremany videos about this place that I knew I had to check it out for myself. The journey up isn't too bad, but near the top there are a lot of horse droppings. When you arrive, there's a stunning view of a lake right in front of the tea house. They have two separate lines, one for dining in and one for to-go. The seating accommodations are minimal, but they will do their best to get you in. The food and tea itself aren't anything to write home about, but it's mostly the ambiance and aesthetics that keep this place going. They do ask you to take your trash down with you if possible, which is a bit of a hassle, but worth it to help do your part!

We found this gem on Yelp and Google, 4.9 stars so we had to try it out. It's located in an…read moreindustrial area but it's worth going to where the locals eat and tour companies get their baked goods. It's family owned. The husband is a chef, wife is a pastry chef. Everything is made from scratch. Every detail from the presentation to the home made English muffins are on point. The son takes your order and is very conversational. Unfortunately, we got there around 10, many of the baked goods are sold out. This is a hidden gem, great food, service and supports local farmers from the tea and coffee served to the flavor in the food. Too bad it was our last day in Banff, otherwise we would have come back again.

That's this place. They bake fresh every morning with no leftovers from the day before. We love breakfast food and give this place our very best recommendation. The chef made our breakfast sandwich on the spot. The cinnamon roll which is the size of a small chihuahua was piping hot with icing that was sweet, but not too sweet. Located in an industrial park where you would never expect it!
