The food here is seriously amazing. We drove over from Banff just to get their breakfast. It takes time but is worth the wait for quality.

We were making our way across BC heading to Calgary and stopped in Lake Louise for a late lunch and stretch break. We came across the Trailhead Cafe in the little mall as you enter the Lake Louise area and gave it a try. The service was pleasant and the food good. I had their bagel with smoked salmon and... More

This is a GREAT cafe for breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. Their wraps are fantastic, lots to choose from, the soup was great too. We went to one or two other cafes in the area but this was the best. Every morning my partner keeps demanding 'The Cure' wrap.. you've created a monster...

We popped in for some coffee and something to eat. We had a peppermint latte and a white chocolate latte with a chocolate brownie and blueberry muffin. It was all so delicious! Space is quite limited if you're looking to eat in, but it's really worth it!

SLOW SERVICE. I was the only one in there and instead of making my sandwich the lady was cutting vegetables in the back for some reason? I literally stood there for a few minutes before she even started on my sandwich. Don't stop here if you are looking to grab a "quick" bite...longest I've ever waited for grilled cheese. :/

You can't beat this breakfast wrap. I'm hooked on it because you can choose the wrap and add your sauces to it, depending on your mood. SPICY HOT! SWEET! or regular. Lot's of choice. Staff is great!!! Great Deli Menu!!! Nice cup of java and find a place to sit outside and it's ALL GOOD!!!!

We went to trailhead as it was on the way to Lake Louise. I thought the food was expensive compared to the portion sizes. The coffee was very nice though. There were 6 of us and we took up the whole place! I found the staff very friendly, if I went again it would only be fur coffee.

Busy little coffee joint with savory and sweet treats.......wraps and assorted warm goodies from the grill served up fresh and quick.......good quality coffee at good price points........friendly and courteous counter service with limited seating. The place has a pulse, you feel dialed into Lake Louise when you stop by!
