I had an epic salad called Mango Tango. It had shredded cabbage, lettuce, beets, mango, black beans, edema with a lime dressing Bonerama healthy eating it! It was delicious. Husband got three gigantic fluffy pancakes and fried potatoes. Fantastic! Great menu with tons of choices. Highly recommend. read more

We stopped by here for breakfast today and really enjoyed it! I had the Quebec Combo, my wife went with the Montreal Smoked Meat Poutine, and our cousin had the Duck Confit Poutine. They both loved their meals, and while my breakfast looked simple at first, the flavors definitely surprised me--in the best way. Everything tasted so good! Our server was also kind and friendly, which helped to make our experience even better! The ambiance was nice and comfortable too, which made the whole experience even better. The only downside is that it's a little on the pricey side, but honestly the quality and flavor more than make up for it. Definitely a spot I'd recommend, and I'd happily come back again. read more

This is a great place for breakfast! Even though the restaurant was busy, the service was fast and friendly! I ordered an iced coffee and smoked salmon eggs Benedict. The hollandaise was smooth, the salmon was fresh, and the potatoes were crispy. I like assortment of fruits that came with my meal. read more

Low quality ingredients. Dishwater coffee. Big disappointment. Service was good. Apple Brie Ham crepe was deli meat and canned apples. Pancake syrup rather than maple syrup. Hollandaisse sauce on Benedict was basically mayo. Big disappointment. read more

Our hotel, Chateau Canmore, gave us 10% off coupon to this place. Lots of parking right in front of the restaurant. Place was 50% full Saturday 11AM. Peach Mango Smoothie - 10/10, little pricey but isn't everything. Food came faster than I expected which was a pleasant surprise! I had the Mountaineer - 10/10. Potatoes were for sure my favorite, sausage was not but boyfriend liked them. Boyfriend got the Montreal Smoked Meat Bene Poutine. 9/10. Smoked meat was 10/10 but boyfriend found it all got too soggy for his liking as it has both hollandaise and gravy. Gravy was a little bland for my liking. Overall a good place for classic breakfast items. read more

A must try for breakfast whenever I am in Canmore. Service is always good, the food is always delicious and the views are lovely.

I really enjoyed this place for breakfast, there were several options on the menu and I opted for the bene combo, fruity crepe and feta spinach benedict. I loved that I could get a combination of the two and it was the perfect amount. My serve was fantastic and very attentive. The restaurant is so cute in this mountain town & is great for a lovely breakfast or brunch. read more

If I could go back, I'd most definitely go back to brunch at this place in Canmore, Alberta. This is a beautiful brunch spot that serves all day breakfast. Their beautiful French inspired decor makes the place more attractive. The staff was really friendly and welcoming which is why you need to re-read the first line in my post. Coming to food, we tried a lot of different items including: Montreal smoked meat - egg benedict combo with Butter and Cinnamon crepe Strawberry and cream cheese French toast classic poutine Salmon served with potatoes and veggies Quesadilla Literally all the items that we tried were delicious and like I said if it was possible, I'd go back to this place every month to have brunch. read more

Pretty good and affordable breakfast/brunch place in Canmore. I've eaten here several times and have quite enjoyed it. Until I hear of other nice breakfast spots in Canmore, I will continue to come here. They can get pretty packed so make sure to time your arrival right! Every time I've gone here the staff have always been so awesome. They have seating on both sides of the restaurant and a nice outdoor patio for the summer. I've had their crepes, eggs benny, breakfast plate, waffles and it's all been delicious! The only thing I wish they'd serve their salmon benny with is fresh dill. The breakfast potatoes are good and I like how they are crispy. They also serve lunch items which I've seen but never tried before. As it's in a hotel lot, parking can be a bit tricky to find. I've always been able to find parking but some days were a challenge. I can't wait to visit this place again! read more

Our breakfast was very average, it hit the spot but was nothing spectacular. The menu was very large with a lot of great options. This place is definitely more expensive, especially if you want to add protein to a pancake-like dish or add real maple syrup. I found it odd that a shot glass of maple syrup was $2. I was also disappointed there was no espresso on the menu. I did appreciate that there were multiple gluten free options such as gluten free waffles. It was okay, but nothing amazing. Our server was fine, but didn't seem to like tourists. read more

Honestly an excellent brunch experience in Canmore (and better/more reasonably priced than anywhere we ate in a neighboring tourist town)! We arrived mid-day on a weekday and were seated immediately, our server gave us enough time to review the menus but was prompt in checking in on us. I ordered a veggie omelette with egg whites (love that they don't charge for egg whites) and my dining partner ordered a vegetarian poutine (veggie gravy, too! so rare!) - we both were really pleased with our dishes. Their breakfast potatoes are mandolined and are cooked really nicely, kind of a unique way to do it. The poutine was awesome with a nicely poached egg on top - definitely a dish to remember. My omelette was classic but tasty, and it comes with toast, potatoes, and fruit for a well-rounded and hearty meal. Our coffees (one iced, one hot) were also great. Will gladly recommend this place to other people! We ate inside because it was a drizzly day, but there's a lovely patio with mountain views that I imagine would be nice with good weather. read more

We stayed at Chateau Canmore and that's where Chez Francois is at. Before we checked out, we went for late breakfast and it was a good decision. I had the Snoked Salmon eggs Benedict, my daughter had the chocolate chip pancakes with a side of maple bacon, and my husband got the Quebec combo. All were delish! I am not a fan of potatoes, but their side of fried potatoes were heavenly! Definitely recommend this place! Good food, great staff! read more

You know when you are on the first day of your trip, and you go for breakfast and suddenly you all agree you need to switch things around so you can come back to this restaurant again? May I introduce Chez Francois! The first day I got the crepe/benny combo. Apple crepes were quite good. But the second day none of us were fooling around with anything but the Benedict with perfect medium-poached eggs and liquid gold Hollandaise. The sand-dollar style potato fries are a treat, as is the fresh fruit. There is a waiter here who reminds one that serving is truly an art. It's a pleasure to watch him interact with people. An even bigger pleasure to have him remember you when you return. There are two sizeable rooms off the lobby you enter (the restaurant is located in the Quality Inn), elevator access to washrooms and Covid protocols are observed. read more

Great breakfast place. Everyone loved their food and a great way to start a day of hiking.

Chez François is a lovely Quebecois restaurant in Canmore and it's a must to go if you ever find yourself over there. It's great for family brunches. It's always busy so go early. But to be honest, the waiting time is approximately 10 to 15 minutes. Their menu offers so many options for breakfast and drinks that it's kinda hard to choose one. The staff is fast and efficient. Love they're not in a rush and they take their time to answer any questions you have from the menu. We got our meals and drinks really quickly. I got the Canadian Back Bacon eggs benedict and a cappuccino. Both were great! The hollandaise sauce is so flavourful and the fries were great. Definitely coming back soon! read more

Today, I dropped by a treated myself to Duck Confit Eggs Benedict. It was a refreshing change and needless to say it tasted delicious with a nice subtle flavor to the duck. Could have used a little more hollandaise sauce but very good nonetheless. I was seated very quickly eventhough it was busy probably because I chose to be seated inside rather on the patio. It was a very nice sunny day so the patio was packed. Chet , my waiter was a delight to talk to and he was very attentive. The decor is always relaxing creating a very chilled atmosphere. I never feel rushed. read more

The food was 4 stars but Service was not. She was friendly enough but brought refrigerated maple syrup and instantly turned my warm French toast cold. Also, it came with one scrambled egg and I ordered 2 extra eggs over medium. She brought extra scrambled eggs. I think there was a language barrier, which is fine but the scrambled eggs were dry..like at a cheap buffet..Little things make a difference. read more

Not deserving of 4.7 rating. The scrambled eggs and omelets were overcooked and dry (even though the scrambled eggs were ordered soft scrambled), a cardinal sin for a French restaurant. Will not return. read more

Cute brunch spot connected to the hotel. Our server was super friendly and our food came pretty quick. Everything was super tasty and came with a side of fruit - which I really enjoyed! They had a variety of different breakfast options, from eggs to french toast. This was really helpful for my mom, who's allergic to eggs. read more

Portions are smaller than other places I've eaten in the area. And the smashed avocado was a bit bland compared to others I've eaten in the past. Our service was really nice and was always on top of making sure our coffee cup was full. He also great about making recommendations (thank you Chett). It's a very chill atmosphere with view of the mountain. This place has vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options read more

I am mystified by the positive reviews left here. We stopped for breakfast on a Sunday morning in early August. The restaurant at 9am was not busy- maybe 3 tables. The waitress was pleasant and the restaurant was clean. I ordered orange juice, waffles with field berries, side bacon. My SO ordered coffee & eggs Florentine w/Hollandaise. My waffles looked great, but were not hot. Were they pre-cooked prior to service? I'm thinking yes. They also had zero flavor. The bacon was limp, cold and unappetizing. The garnish looked awesome though! I only ate a small portion of my dish. My SO's spinach was flavorless and the Hollandaise was refrigerator cold. I flagged down another waitress and asked if they could warm the sauce up. She replied "It's supposed to be cold- it has raw eggs in it. " Anyone that knows anything about food- or has access to the internet- knows that is not true. We left thinking Francois is really an 18 year old cook named Frankie that hates his job and resents being made to get up early to work on a Sunday morning. My advice to him is to stay in school and find a job you like. My advice to people looking for quality food? Avoid Chez Francois. read more

Chez Francois is a great breakfast restaurant the smoothies where a bit watered down but the French toast made up for it the first time I took a bite of it I know I was going to eat all . The only thing that I have against them is the fact that the food sits very heavy on your stomach. read more

A very nice and tasty breakfast. While I had a very basic egg breakfast (scrambled eggs, bacon, multigrain toast, and fruit), it was hot, fresh, and beautifully presented. I had my misgivings, as the restaurant is in the Quality Inn hotel. Don't let the modest appearance of this restaurant keep you from eating here. read more

We had a great experience here. I was a little skeptical because it seemed a little like a Denny's feel but the food when served was an eye opener...it looked delicious, was delicious, and was a lot of food. The potato chips/slices were so good. I don't know why more restaurants don't serve potatoes this way. My daughter was so relieved to get a crepe with Nutella finally after failed searches. We would definitely come back here. The waiter also had some great suggestions for hiking. read more

We were here for breakfast. The place is clean, bright and the host and server is friendly and very helpful. The portion of the food is large. And the food itself is great and filling.

The food was good. Nothing to write home about. If you're coming to Canmore for the food I would bypass Chez Francois. The service was also mediocre as we had missing articles of food, and were charged for food we never received. The ambiance is what you would expect from a restaurant in a hotel. read more
