Quaint Cafe offering freshly baked breads, delicious breakfast and lunch specials with hearty portions. Great coffee specials, too!
This is a small cafe and sometimes closes due to lack of staff. My most recent search said it’s temporarily closed, but if it’s open, give it a try!

Old School Soda Fountain vibes along with a candy store. Nothing fancy. Plain burgers without many fixings, but a downtown staple. Hamburgers, ice cream and soups offered as well.

旅行者へのアドバイス
出発前に予約しよう
Reservations Recommended
I highly suggest making reservations to any restaurants and sight seeing tours, including National Parks. The Valley is comprised of several small towns who thrive on tourism during the summer, but that also means thousands of visitors wanting to do what you’re doing. Making reservations helps ensure a better experience for you.

Glacier National Park
Access to Glacier National Park requires a Park pass as well as an entry ticket.
Tickets are available:
https://www.recreation.gov/
Valid for 3 days. Tickets sell out in minutes at 8am the day PRIOR. I highly suggest creating an account and searching for one of the entrances and seeing how to access the sight before trying to purchase tickets. (West Glacier and Polebridge are ticketed separately this year)
