In Canmore for the weekend and since the reviews were so positive, decided to eat here. We had a hard time finding the place, but eventually did. We had a small regular poutine, Montreal smoked meat sandwich and a mushroom burger. The portions were very generous and the food was excellent. It was a nice place to have lunch and... More

On May 01 my wife & I were headed west coming into Canmore at around 11:30am. We needed a break so thought lunch would do it. We checked Tripadvisor & saw great reviews for La Belle Patate. In that we hadn't had Poutine & a Montreal Smoked Meat sandwich before we decided to give it a try. We split a... More

The food, the service - as good as it gets! This simple, small restaurant tucked in a light industrial park, is worth looking for. Since this was our first time eating poutine I have no way to comment on its authenticity - but I can tell you it was marvelously tasty. I also had a top-notch steak sandwich. Large portion,... More

This place makes me smile. Seriously, you can't be grumpy while sitting in this authentic Quebecois poutinerie! The staff are always laughing and having fun and really care about the food they're presenting. One day I overheard the owner talking about his shipment of hundreds of hundreds of pounds of potatoes. My personal favourite is the works + jalepenos! Delicious... More

What a treasure. Fun service by staff that cares about the restaurant. Great poutine. Fun decor. Very casual and off the beaten path. Lots of locals stoping in for their poutine fix. We really enjoyed our food. Big portions! Diet alert! Spruce Beer was a unique taste. Not sure if I liked it but it had to be tried.

Stopped by for a quick lunch. Smoked meat sandwich was awesome. Poutine was filling. You won't be dissapointed by choosing this gem.

Love it, love it, love it! That squeaky cheese and nice fries! If you are hungry, not bother with waiting for someone to come over taking your order, too lazy to cook - Thats the place to go! or just call, pick it up, enjoy it home!

Wonderful food with plenty of menu choice. The staff are always friendly and very welcoming. You can tell they appreciate your business! Should be on "you gotta eat here"!
