   Afternoon tea at the Fairmont Lake Louise is a must on the bucket list. Stunning views of Lake Louise, with great service and food. The best way to enjoy an afternoon in the national park.

   IT was a wonderful experience, the service was impeccable! Wonderful little savory sandwiches are followed by scones with clotted cream, raspberry, and an out of this world lemon spread! It’s all culminated with some tasty little sweet treats at the end. The view is second to none, I highly recommend!

   We had the best time and it was 100% due to our server. Chin made it extra special and treated us great. We loved him and will definitely come back just to see him. He explained the process for the tea in a way that elevated the dining experience and was engaging for the adults and also for the kids. Would highly recommend

   Not the top quality afternoon tea expected at a Fairmont establishment. Finger sandwiches were obviously nit freshly made and the filling was barely there at all. Pastries looked lovely but they were mostly cream. And after this meal all members of party had upset stomachs. Not a great experience at all. When you’re paying the prices charged here you expect absolutely top shelf food.

   We spent 346 cad on a sick joke. While still dining, we had an intense stomach pain and needed to rush to the restroom. To make things worse, this restaurant doesn’t have its own restroom, so we needed to go to the restroom located in the hotel, which were closed for cleaning for over 30 minutes. Our son requested additional finger sandwiches that were denied by our waiter under the excuse that they prepare a limited amount of food earlier during the day for the afternoon tea. I guess this justifies how we ingested this terrible bacterial toxin since their food isn’t freshly prepared. Any other reputable afternoon tea, freshly prepares the food and replenishes the finger sandwiches as per the guest request. Stay away from this place if you want to avoid the risk of ingesting contaminated food.

   The food presentation was exquisite. Scones were lovely, the darker one was a bit dry and crumbly but the lighter one was great! The croissant was a little dry and harder than expected but the filling was very yummy. I’m glad that the sandwiches had the variety of bread but fillings could be heartier. The candied salmon was lovely. Sitting by the window was wonderful, as was the service. Emily, our server was delightful. Music was perhaps a bit loud (especially given that seniors have hearing aids and are trying to navigate their hearing needs). Overall, we are very glad we came. Prices are not for the faint of heart!

    The tea sommelier was so friendly and knowledgeable. The courses were great and they were so accommodating of my gluten intolerance.
