Location amazing. Staff not overly helpful. I asked for an umbrella to be put down as it was blocking the beautiful. She said she couldnt do that because the next people may want it up. There were many empty tables. We stayed for nearly 2...hours and no one sat at that table, nor were the plates cleaned from the table from the previous customers. Then the restaurant closed for the day about dinner time and no ever did sit at that table. The lady at the till of the cafeteria, who is from Edmonton, super personable and I enjoyed my discussion with her.More

Great Food! Thank you Shawn for a great meal! Our wait staff was amazing! Got our meals exactly as we wanted! Stakes where done to our taste! The vegys where so good! Our daughter had the hamburger! She said it was the best hamburger!

Stopped in to grab a quick bite while on a hike with my family. The Alberta Beef and Vegetable Stew was delicious and just what I needed. Everyone was very friendly and helpful.

The view of the lake is stunning. The restaurant is positioned perfectly. We were there at lunch time and wanted some light refreshment after our walk by the lake. It is a serve yourself restaurant and we only looked at the light bite options and...coffee. There is a sign telling diners to wait to be seated but there were no staff present to do this. It had rained about an hour previously and yet we still had to dry our own table. The food was average and the price excessive.More

We dined at this restaurant following our canyon tour and, as it was all inclusive in our overall tour package, I am unable to comment on pricing. There was 40 people in our group and the booking, greeting and seating arrangements were handled in an...excellent fashion. The service was efficient and friendly and we had orders taken and drinks provided in very quick time. Whilst our meals were being prepared our tour guide gave an enlightening talk on the animals of that can be found in the immediate area. The meals themselves were of an excellent standard and we certainly didn't go hungry with what was on offer. Overall a very good dining experience and one that is recommended to othersMore

This place has definitely gone "up market" since our last visit. We just opted for coffee and pastries which were delicious. It was very busy when we visited as there were a lot of coach parties there.

There were three dining options available to us for lunch at Maligne Lake - one was a buffet style restaurant that cost $50 per person and required a reservation, another only served waffles, and the third, and the one that we chose, was The View,...a cafeteria style restaurant that specializes in prepackaged sandwiches, salads, baked goods, and soup. This was perfect for us since we just wanted to grab something quickly for lunch before our boat cruise on the lake. I had an egg salad sandwich on a croissant, and my husband had the roasted turkey and gouda sandwich; we were also able to try Canada's famous ketchup chips here, something we don't have in the States. The food hit the spot, and the setting was absolutely gorgeous, various decks with wooden tables that look out onto beautiful Maligne Lake. We were there on a wonderfully sunny day and loved that we were able to sit outside on the patio and enjoy the view while we ate. There's also indoor seating available if the weather isn't up to par. This is a good spot for those who just want to grab something on the run, and we would definitely come back again just for the convenience factor before a boat cruise or hiking. Lots of moose in this area, so you may just get lucky and spot one.More
