“Not the first time, certainly won't be the last time we come here!!! The beer is perfect! They also have plenty of options for the under 21 crowd. Best apple juice ever!!! My wife loves the Whiskey Peach, and I am throughly enjoying the crisp Mcintosh.
Staff is polite and professional! Great work!!”
“I got to enjoy an incredible dinner here, for my 34th birthday! The staff was wonderful, and in-tune. The food here is great every single time I eat here. And vibe is always perfect.
You cannot go wrong choosing 1889, and as a Montana Realt Estate Agent who gets to experience all the places and make recommendations---I do not say that lightly. Bon appetite!!”

We were lucky to be able to eat here on a Saturday night without a reservation. Lured in by the fact that they seem to be one of the few restaurants in the area selling something other than fish tacos and burgers, Ports Rouge was wonderful.
One of the highlights of our meal were the oysters. Deliciously paired with some excellent (and reasonably priced) wine.
Friendly service.
Highly recommended.”
“Absolutely delicious beers! Loved it so much, we went back twice during our visit. Even better is their mission. Can’t wait to get there again.”

Also as someone with celiac they have many celiac safe options and are very educated on how to prepare celiac safe meals!”
“Great food, great atmosphere, and great staff. I need to get down there more.”

“I have celiacs disease and the employee was very knowledgeable. Changed gloves, got a new scoop, and a brand new bin of ice cream. They even had gluten free waffles! Usually I have to explain more and ask a bunch of questions but the girl was great! I had the salted caramel and it was delicious. I will be returning for more”
“Such fun and unique flavors! Honeydew, coconut milk and peach boba is delicious. Super helpful and friendly staff. Lots of fun local products to look at while you wait from Missoula Makers.”

suggest you check it out”

“What an incredible experience- great food & service! Flavorful and decadent, definitely will be back! Chef Sonia @ La Casa Toscana Italian Restaurant Butte Mt”
“We had a breakfast burrito and bagel sandwich. Both were good but a little on the dry side. The bakery is outstanding and they have doggie baked goods ad well. Great options for coffee as well.”
“We are pho connesuers and even make our own at home. We try pho as often as we can from as many different restaurants as we can find. For pho in Missoula, this is the place! Every item we've ordered from the menu is superb every time. My personal favorites are the imperial rolls and the house special pho (#19). This is always our go to place for lunch. The prices are great as well!
Kid-friendliness: I have brought my eight year old, my twelve year old, and my seventeen year old. They were all treated very well and found items they really enjoyed on the menu.”
“We have been to 49 states and this is one of the best restaurants we have been to the food is amazing the atmosphere great, service”
“Great food. New location on Broadway, shared with Stuffed 406 - they are still moving in so it's not particularly cute inside but hopefully that will improve. Darn good authentic Mexican burrito!”
“Great cauliflower crust pizza! We ordered the Chicago 7, and it was cooked perfectly. We ordered a large, expecting a regular large pizza only to discover that it was only 6 slices, so we also ordered a large deep dish Chicago 7.”
“While great and Trivia Night is awesome, it is WAY TOO DARK. The steps just to get in are terrifying.”

“I have never had the pleasure of actually going to the tea shop in Missoula as I live in Maryland. I found out about the Lake Missoula Tea Company from THE SENTENCE, a novel by Louise Erdrich. One of the novel's characters loves one particular tea from the company. Intrigued, I found the company's website and ordered some of that tea to give it a try. In the bargain, I ordered a packet of the Irish Breakfast Tea as well. I fell in love with the Irish Breakfast Tea, which is so brilliantly flavorful that I have for several years now ordered it from the company to serve as my daily pot of tea. THANK YOU for the best morning brew around!”
“Excellent cinnamon bread and berry cheesecake scones. Awesome customer service as well. Highly recommend.”
“Great! The coffee, burrito and service… he definitely cared about the quality of goods..”
“Ruby’s is amazing! We come almost every weekend. Amanda and Heather are amazing!! Brenda takes great care of her team. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!!”
“The cookies are LITERALLY to die for! I have some AT LEAST once a week. They're almost TOO good.
... I have a problem.
Of course I know that now, but back then, how could I have known? They were just cookies, so what? But 2 became 3, and 3 to 4... Before I knew it, I was crushing a box EVERY NIGHT!!
I thought I had it under control. Until I was selling my car... "I'll just walk" I said. "It's good for me. Especially when eating all these cookies." Ha ha ha! Sigh... I remember laughing. But nobody's laughing now.
I lost my job, my house, my wife, the kids, my savings, even the DOG! Sold him for $20. Almost enough for a 6-pack. Oh, what have I become?!
Heed my word, friends. Don't wind up like me!
Anyway... I need to get to work. Those cookies aren't gonna pay for themselves.
Oh, and yes, you heard me right. "get to work". It IS true that I lost my job. But, my new line of work is different... I'm... Well, you don't wanna know...
(This was all OBVIOUSLY satire lol I love the cookies and so will you! Go get some, now!)”
“We have been on the road touring America since Thanksgiving in our little teardrop camper. We are appreciative that Cracker Barrel's allow us to rest our heads as we move on. It's easy to comp them back with getting a great meal. Today we are in Missoula, MT and had the grilled bacon chicken meals. Carmen E (our server) was amazing. She was friendly and engaging and on top of her game. We love it when everything comes together! Wish they were all like her. BobnLori”
“Checked this place out this morning. It’s super close to my house. They were very busy about 10am but it’s worth the wait. Coffee was great but breakfast burrito was fantastic! Cute spot with lots of seating too.”
“Absolutely delicious beers! Loved it so much, we went back twice during our visit. Even better is their mission. Can’t wait to get there again.”
“All the way from North Carolina. Hands down the best breakfast we had on our trip. It was so good we stopped back by to eat going back to Utah to catch our flight. If we are back out that way we will definitely stop by again. Great food and the staff was awesome.”
“One of my favorite happy places in Missoula. They always have a fun window display, delicious cookies and friendly employees.”

“Bought a large mocha frappe- the lady working just now was super nice and fast getting us our item! Wonderful service taste amazing ! Large for like 5 1/2 bucks!!! Amazing”
“I’m staying in the area for work for 5 weeks and I went here as often as I could, every single time the ladies were super nice and recommended amazing drinks. The coffee and the vibes never failed to be good! Thank you ladies!”
“The coffee and service were fantastic. The baristas were all very friendly during the couple of times I went here. I wish they would add more seating or clear out all of the things they store in the middle of the dining space.”
“My husband says I’m spoiled but the truth is I this is the best coffee I’ve had. Everyone is always friendly and Maya has her special touch she always makes my coffee just right. It’s nice when they see my car in line at the Broadway location and already know my order ❤️”
“I had a latte flavored Huckleberry..... perfection!! Not overly sweet like chain lattes, it had a good coffee flavor with a hint of Huckleberry. As a traveler it's hard finding good coffee. Thank you for a good coffee drink.
My boyfriend got the Huckleberry smoothie....it was excellent, beware it was more of a milkshake than a smoothie.”
“I tried The Bridge for the first time a month ago. Had the chicken and bacon sandwich and the wings. Both were absolutely fantastic. Had the Greek salad and the chicken and bacon sandwich tonight.... Once again did not disappoint. FANTASTIC. Thanks for being open and preparing great food during this tough time”

“A Missoula staple and not your typical Dairy Queen. Only walk up and we'll worth it. Have specials including for kids and dogs. (don't miss dilly bsr night!) They can even make Blizzards that are no longer available. Amazing people with great service!”
“Today my significant other and I ordered two Lotus beverages. For those of you who are not familiar with these beverages; a Lotus drink is a plant based caffeinated syrup mixed with club soda and any of the many flavors offered. Sugar-free options available. I ordered one of the featured specials named “Purple Rain” which consisted of lavender and huckleberry flavors. My girlfriend had one named “Rainbow Sherbet”, flavors not remembered, but it has cream added. Both tasted great! We really like these drinks as a nice cool and carbonated “pick me up”. Amber, our barista gave us great service! She’s was very kind and gave my girlfriend a few dum-dum lollipops to help with her recent quitting of nicotine. She even went the extra mile and gave her some really kind words of encouragement.THANK YOU, Amber! ?All in all, we really love Florence Coffee company for their extensive menu, great quality (and energetic) coffee and other drinks. It’s been amazing to see this local business grow into the operation it is today. We really recommend them!”
“Great Drink, Nerd Rope is my favorite! 5 star ⭐️ customer service.”
“The thing I love most about Florence Coffee is how consistent my coffee is throughout the staff and all the -->drive-thru<--- locations due to great training.”
“We went to the 3rd St W location after cruising around the university area. The drive-through was awkward to access, but the customer service was friendly & quick and the coffee was GRRRRREAT! We would definitely stop again.”
“The Ranch Club has been a friend of the cycling community for the last 10 years. Nick and his crew have opened their arms to us. They treat us like family and provide amazing customer service. I can't recommend the Ranch Club enough.”
“Great bar. A little higher end than it used to be but still a good time.”
Cheap Eats
“Came across this cute little place while visiting from out of town. Totally vegan breakfast with donuts!?! Whaaat!!??!! Tomorrow I'm coming back to grab some pastries to take back with me. I ordered the French toast; so good it doesn't need syrup. I was so excited to eat this as good French toast is a rarity in vegan breakfast. The side of tofu I ordered sort taste like bacon. Yum. If I lived here I would definitely come back!”
“My friend was in town and we decided to try this place out! From the moment we walked through the door, we loved the ambiance and felt welcomed by staff. We went in at about 5:45pm and there were a handful of other patrons, but plenty of barstools available for seating. We were given menus immediately and were not rushed to order. I didn't catch our bartender's name, but they were very kind and had some super cool glasses! We each ordered a cocktail and then we ordered three small plates--croquettas (croquettes), ensalada tomate (marinated tomato/onion/olive salad), and the pan con tomate (toast with tomato). The croquettas were our favorite! My friend had the Little Birdy cocktail which was fruity and refreshing. I can't find the name of the one I ordered on their menu online but it had Sevilla orange gin, lemon and a few other ingredients. It was equally delicious and refreshing and I loved the presentation of the cocktails. Our subtotal was $35, which we felt was fair for the drinks and food we ordered. It was $10 per cocktail and a total of $15 for the three pintxos. I will definitely return to Bar Plata soon and would recommend it to Missoula residents and visitors!
Vegetarian options: Some of the small plates are vegetarian and I believe the sandwich (bocadillo) may be as well but I would always recommend confirming with your bartender!
Dietary restrictions: They have some gluten and dairy free options! I did not ask about their procedures for allergies or cross contamination so definitely check with staff before ordering!”
“I only have good things to say.....great customer service, amazing steak, yummy burgers & fries. I highly recommend eating at the deli and getting some meat to take home. Thank you soooo much!!!”
“Looks dark, expensive, & pretentious. It was anything but. Craft cocktails were top tier artesenal and transcendent. Not too expensive and great atmosphere!”
“Bob and crew did an incredible job catering two large events for us in July! Great food, better service, very much went above and beyond! Stop by the restaurant or consider them for your next catering needs!”
“The coffee here would make me pull off I90 to come back next time I’m passing through. Very tasty espresso (I’m picky) and house-made syrups, so you know it’s gonna be good. Also, the olive oil loaf slaps. Also also, super affordable drinks.”
“A great spot to enjoy a good coffee and discover excellent pastries at a very reasonable price. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The place is cozy and inviting. A wonderful find during our visit to Missoula. I highly recommend this place!”
“No pretension. Just a burger and a beer. You don’t need anything else.”
“Never been there, but I just tried their instant organic coffee!!! I bought it at a local store in Oregon. Wow!!!! I mean how did they get instant so smooth? I bought this box of packets months ago and was hesitant to try it because I thought it would be like all the others. You know? Where you tolerate them on a trip because you can’t get organic everywhere. But no!!! I’m going to their website right now to order packets for travel and home and just because they make life simpler with no guilt! ❤️”
“The perfect spot for all of your beer & wine needs in Missoula plus they’re right next to a great gem, The Old Post! The people who work there are super friendly & helpful, we highly recommend stopping in!”
“Great old dive bar but on St Patty's day they have the best corned beef you've ever put in your pie hole. Perfectly tender melt in your mouth slightly smokey goodness.”
“Incredible spot with a wonderful breakfast and brunch. Stopped in during a very very very busy weekend in Missoula. Staff was excellent in communicating waits and items they were out of. Drinks and coffee were fast. The Breakfast Poutine is to die for.”
“Pretty hot in the summer with the doors open. The fans don’t so much and some don’t work. The beer is great. We were there when they had live jazz music and that was nice too!”
“Nice ?
Parking: Seems like more than enough room even for big a**es
Kid-friendliness: Great job ya'll
Wheelchair accessibility: Good meets code I'm sure!”
“The 3 of us had to try out each others food. We had a lamb burger, beef brisket sandwich, and aidenator. We all agreed. Everything was wonderful, and we're planning on coming back again. To try out more food on the menu. We have to come back sometime during the winter. So we can try out the bison stew.
Parking: Pay parking 9am to 5pm. After 5pm is free. If you can find a parking spot.”
“Every bite, from the bruschetta to our individual meals was remarkable! And Jeremy, our waiter, was very helpful and personable!”

Latest Reviews
“I can see why I don’t like any to eat out at fast food places. This is the most unfriendly atmosphere. Staff could care less if you place an order. They are more interested in visiting amongst themselves about events and people. Slow night yet register was closed forcing use of the kiosk. From out of town just passing through but I won’t be stopping by this location anytime soon.”
“We decided to try it again, first time at any McDonald's in almost a year. We got good service, good food, and was quite pleased. Great manager.”
“We love Miller creek cafe! The staff is awesome and the food is delicious. Their shrimp bisque is fabulous, the only complaint is that they don't make it often enough.”
“Stopped for lunch on 6/7/22. Great service and great food. The chip guy delivered chips and salsa about 10 seconds after we sat down. The food was fresh and delicious and everyone was friendly and gracious. Great family owned business! We will be back!”
“I've been coming here for 30 years. Foe practically the whole time they've been open. I love it here! A lot. I recently had a coffee card debacle after they made a little mix up. They remedied it quickly, after I explained. I did it this month for reasons. Still. LOVE this place. They do it right. Every single time.”
“We have options now Missoula! $15 for a three item combo? Zoo Thai for me”
