Crying Because I Ate a Year’s Worth of Fries in Banff | Food Guide

Honestly… 🍟 Why are Banff’s fries so damn good?! The town is gorgeous—perfect for strolling and munching. ▪️ Lakeview Lounge Inside the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. The vibe? Fancy. The food? Decent. But the view of Lake Louise? UNREAL. ✅ Hits: Burger, soft-shell crab squid ink pasta, and even the kids' meal (lol). 🍔 Pro tip: When in doubt, burger & fries never fail. ▪️ The Maple Leaf 📍 137 Banff Ave, Banff ✅ Must-orders: Cowboy steak (with addictive baby potatoes) and the honey-glazed duck wings (fruity, slightly sweet). 🍺 Try their local "stone-brewed" beer—it packs a punch! ⚠️ Skip the seafood platter (meh). ▪️ COWS Ice Cream Yes, it’s a chain. But when you see the line, you have to join. Waffle cone = mandatory vacation treat. ▪️ Cactus Club Cafe (Kelowna) No reservations—just line up like everyone else. 🔥 Can’t-miss: Mini burgers, sushi, and TRUFFLE FRIES (drool). ▪️ Jasper Pizza Place 📍 Jasper townsite Was too hungry to photograph, but trust: Pizza, burgers & onion rings SLAP.
