Good food for a really good price. For a small town this is a good place to eat and probably the best breakfast place in whitefish (though I wouldn't consider it the best in a medium-large city). It's a pretty popular place especially in the sunny summer days so try to get there a bit earlier than you want to eat. read more

Buffalo Cafe - American Near Me - Whitefish, Montana

Interesting atmosphere. Somewhere between a diner meets sports bar meets steakhouse. Ordered the onion rings which were beer battered and came with a type of spicy ranch like dip and these were fantastic. Best onion rings I've had and the dip goes perfectly with them. Shared the special that day of chicken Alfredo which was good not great. Chicken had a great cook, wasn't too crazy about the Alfredo sauce. Service was great. read more

Solid breakfast joint. Loula's is my top choice for breakfast in Whitefish and I love the Boat Club as well. But Buffalo Cafe is in my top three Thick hashbrowns, yummy gravy, Secret Purple Dressing, Mimosas after 11(oarnge, grapefruit, pineapple, guava) are all highlights of brunch here for me. Breakfast is served til 2:30 (yes!). All of these bring this to 5 stars for me! Service is chill and and slower. People come here to visit and enjoy their time. But if you need to get out quicker I'm sure they will accommodate! Gotta try this place while you are here! read more

Absolutely delicious and fresh breakfast and they use local food. Will 100% be going back. Only negative things I saw in previous reviews were about the wait time, we did have a 20-25min wait but I planned for that and I thought the wait time was completely reasonable. Pricing is good too for such a large plate of food. read more

Buffalo Cafe - Biscuits and Gravy - American Near Me - Whitefish, Montana

I can see why this is a favorite amongst locals and tourists. We came here twice for breakfast on our short trip and both were super delicious with generous portions. The waitress was so so friendly and very accommodating, even found me some Sugar Free syrup! Highly recommend!! read more

Arrived on a Friday around 1030 and had a 20 minute wait. Ordered the biscuits and gravy with egg whites as well as the French toast. The biscuits and gravy was basically a plate of gravy with biscuits and eggs buried underneath it all. The hashbrowns were okay and lacked flavor, just like the gravy. The gravy was creamy but not as flavorful. When you cleared enough gravy you got to a very tasty biscuit the French toast was like a cinnamon roll bread and was very tasty. The syrup was so-so. OJ was good and the diet soda was okay. In all food was average - service is where I dropped a star. Never was asked for a refill or how the food was, and had to ask for the bill. This wouldn't be my first choice. read more

Nice little place for breakfast, the service was friendly and timely, and the food was good! Nothing crazy, but a great place to fuel up before a day at Glacier! read more

We ate lunch the last time we were in town. It was good, so we tried it for breakfast this time. The server was friendly and provided great service.

Pros: Elk enchiladas were decent Cons: Food is way way too salty Don't get the french onion soup, beef stroganoff, or fish n chips, or bison meatloaf Recs: Elk enchiladas read more

This was a great place for breakfast! It was very busy when we arrived around 9:30, but we didn't have to wait a long time to be seated. While waiting to be seated and served, we enjoyed looking a the artwork on display and reading about the Whitefish area. For breakfast, I had the Classic Breakfast Combo, while my husband had the Granny's French Toast Combo. Our friends got the Denver omelette with a side of pancakes. Everything was delicious, and we all left full! read more

Great food and excellent service! Everything everyone ordered in our party was delicious! Tutie's Mac Cheese, bison meatloaf, roasted carrots, homemade hamburger buns... I could go on about most everything we had on our plates. Loved the local atmosphere and the locally sourced food. read more

Buffalo Cafe - The Stumptown Special - cinnamon bread French toast / 2 eggs prepared as you prefer / meat of choice (K.C. Bacon was mine ) - American Near Me - Whitefish, Montana

Best breakfast of our trip!! So so yummy, was recommended by our Air bnb and we LOVED IT! Great service, clean, and great food. We all got a huckleberry pancake to share- it was amazing! Definitely a must eat while in Whitefish read more

Really good food! We got the Mac N cheese and chicken, both were great. Our server was nice as well.

Waited 45 mins to get a table, but once we got seated, service was super fast. Got the bacon and avocado Benedict, very good. Morning Glory pie was ok, the gravy was not what we expected. It was pretty bland. Basic French toast was just that, basic. Staff was friendly and quick. We were in and out of there in 30 mins. Cafe looked neat with buffalo, skis and other Montana things. Ambiance was that of a classic mom and pop restaurant. Would come back to try some of their other menu items. read more

Excellent food and service! Outstanding all the way around. Would highly recommend eating here!

We just drove in from Glacier and needed some lunch. Absolutely glad we picked this place! Food was delicious, atmosphere great and not horrible pricing. Chipotle quesida, tacos, and a burger! Yum read more

It's been two months and I'm still talking about this place. Hands down one of the best omelettes and best oatmeal I've EVER had in my life. This gem of spot is nestled in downtown whitefish. It's an easy walk from the train station and WELL WORTH IT. I sat the counter had coffee (which was outstanding) and a small oatmeal. Made from scratch. Served with heavy cream and brown sugar. I ate the entire thing. I had Joe's omelette- ground beef, grilled onions, spinach and Swiss cheese ... it was glorious. I ate the entire thing. If you're ever in whitefish ,Montana GO HERE. read more

We had a great dinner here! The service was excellent and we all enjoyed our food. We had the gyro, the salmon salad, and the royal with cheese burger. Although they were all delicious, I do think the burger was the best of the 3! I suggest walking around the town before or after eating- what a cute place! read more

Some of the worst customer service from the server I've ever received. BusterOvershadowed the food.

The Buffalo is a staple in my life. They always have interesting specials that look so good if you get there early enough! I am a big fan of their Buffalo pies. ALL OF THEM. ! My daughter LOVES the French toast. Service is always spectacular--and they do it with a smile.! Love the family aspect to the restaurant. I am always full and satisfied when I go. read more

The salmon salad was so so good. I will be stopping by this beautiful cafe again next time I'm in town. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was great. There was a line and a bit of wait for food, but it was worth it! read more

Awesome breakfast at an amazing price. A great lodge style restaurant with amazing service.

So far, Whitefish downtown restaurants didn't disappoint me. Buffalo Cafe is a gem! Their beef stroganoff is one of the best I tasted! You guys rock! read more

Good spot and overall value. Food was pretty good, service great, and the huck shake was top shelf.

Such a great spot for breakfast or brunch!! We were only in Whitefish for a few days and ate there almost every morning!

Great, wholesome, fresh meals. We tried the chicken salad sandwich for the first time and loved it. One of our favorite lunch spots!

I had the Elk Enchiladas and hubby had the Hot Date. Both were delicious and the staff was very nice. Prices are reasonable and your food comes out in a good amount of time as well. I'm trying the chicken the next time we come. It was calling my name! read more

Buffalo Cafe - Elk Enchiladas. Tasty. I was a little disappointed that the elk was ground, not shredded. But it's very good. - American Near Me - Whitefish, Montana

What the restaurant does exceptionally well is their customer service, having not been from this area, this was one of the first stops. Clean, simple, and tasty and fresh. I like the avocado toast option, the special that I had that was a "pie" option with hash browns, bacon, avo, and a few other side condiments with runny eggs all over it. I recommend this place read more

Buffalo was a recommendation from the good folks at Grouse Mountain Lodge as "the best place for breakfast in town." While I can't speak to it being the best place in town, it was very good! I ordered Dow's Huevos and I was both pleased with the generous portions and quality if the food. I'm not typically a fan of flour tortillas with huevos, but this tortilla was crispy and delicious. The eggs, bacon and chorizo were cooked perfectly and the slickness of the chorizo didn't overpower the rest of the meal. It was served with sour cream and bottled salsa that complimented the meal nicely. While I didn't drink beer with my brunch, I was impressed by the number on tap beverages Buffalo offers. The establishment is family friendly and the service was balanced; not eager to be in my space but checked in frequently enough to make me feel like my needs were met. The ambiance is quaint and a bit dated, but I feel like it fits the town and the fare. It's inviting and non-threatening. Best of all, the locals like to eat here and I was seated next to a gentleman who told me about his life in Whitefish. It added to the magic if the place and certainly gave me a good story to tell when I talk about my trip. read more

Tasty salads with lots of veggies, super delicious ranch dressing...all great food. Kid friendly.

I really appreciate the caretaking during covid. their staff are well equipped and really polite with gas to make sure that everyone was socially distancing and wearing masks. Kudos! The 'merica Burger was stunning. Amazing texture. Great flavor. Moist cooked thoroughly. Really impressive hamburger that's well worth returning for. The cheese fries were delicious! No question about it. Would happily return just for these two items. But then the huckleberry shake made it even better! Elk enchiladas are an ambitious option on the menu. They fell well short of any sort of potential. The meat was gaming. The sauce was super bland. Vegetables were bland. There's really nothing redeeming about this dishother than the chef's ambition for trying to put it on the menu. Good concepts for the location, poorly executed. Would never order this again. read more

If you ask for the wifi code they will give you a paper with the code that says no camping. They are watching you, as soon as they see you finish your meal they will block or disconnect you to make sure you get out of bethere fast. You won't be able to reconnect with the same passcode they give you. Not nice at all. Go some place else. read more
