The Whitehorn Bistro at the Lake Louise Summer Gondola in Alberta, Canada
If you find yourself at Lake Louise in Alberta, Canada one summer, we highly recommend taking the gondola to the top and eating at the Whitehorn Bistro.
Just look at this view.
LAKE LOUISE GONDOLA – WHITEHORN BISTRO
Located at 6700′ (2042m) the Whitehorn Bistro proudly offers a contemporary menu with alpine featured items and local products. Each of our fine offerings can be enjoyed inside the dining room, or out on the patio which boasts one of the most incredible panoramic mountain views anywhere.
Whitehorn Bistro is located at the top of the Gondola, which does require the purchase of a Gondola ticket.

WHAT WE ATE
Vegan Stir Fry, Price: 25
Description of Ingredients: rice noodles, tempura tofu, chinese broccoli, red peppers, shitake mushrooms, snap peas, heirloom carrots, green herbs, thai coconut sauce
My sons had this and they devoured it. It was one of the best stir-fries they’ve ever had. The ingredients were fresh and seasoned well.
Fish of the Day: Ahi Tuna, Price: 25
This plate was as delicious as it is beautiful. The tuna and shrimp were cooked to perfection. Ask for the fish of the day and if it’s Ahi Tuna, I highly recommend it.
Heirloom Tomato and Basil Salad, Price: 11

Our daughter had this salad with a cocktail.
