Great little breakfast place. The staff are very friendly and the menu has some nice options. We had short stacks and the pancakes were very fluffy and tasty. The only letdown was that they don't have decaf coffee. read more

Everything is made in the kitchen with a special recipe for the pumpkin pancakes that were delicious.

My wife and I just had lunch at this restaurant. I'm still confused as to why I spent $20 for a basic hamburger with fries and a side salad??... The service was OK. The price point was way way too much for what you got!... It was your basic hamburger with fries, I know I said that, but it bears repeating. And it was a small hamburger. Now the salad was fresh, but they only had ranch dressing so that was a downside. They also ran out of lemons so we could not have a lemon in our ice water. Their credit card machine was also down so they were only taking cash. Bottom line, I would not eat at this restaurant again for lunch because it's way overpriced and I could get the same hamburger, correction, a much better hamburger at Wendy's or Burger King! UPDATE: Wow, just read your feedback on my review... a few things: 1. That was not a 1 pound burger unless it shrunk a large amount in cooking. 2. We paid extra for the side salad, it was not included. Again, a burger, fries and small side salad for $20 not dependent on how many people we had is too much. 3. Your demeanor and defensiveness just reinforce my review of your restaurant. Yelp is for my (customer community) review of goods and services based upon our experience, this was mine...good luck moving forward. read more

Rhonda is truly wonderful--so kind and generous. After my recent surgery, she went out of her way to help my family by providing breakfast during a really challenging time. Her thoughtfulness lifted a huge weight off our shoulders, and we are so grateful. The food at Center Ice Café is just as amazing as the people who run it! The breakfast sandwiches, burritos, pancakes, and more were all delicious. We'll definitely be coming back for more, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this café to anyone looking for a comforting, tasty breakfast spot. Thank you, Rhonda and the entire staff, for taking such great care of us this past weekend! read more

Owners amazing, hockey theme is super cool! Best cafe in Belgrade!! Food is cooked perfectly ! I'll be back here a lot

I mean we ate our food. But we won't go back. They try to make it fun with the hockey theme but it's just missing something. Our waitress was friendly but the other servers/workers didn't seem as nice and didn't return my smiles. I've never been somewhere for breakfast that I got a really strange uncomfortable feeling at like I did here. Shifty eyes, etc. I can't pin point exactly what it was. Just weird vibe from the employees and other customers seated. read more

Nice, old fashioned cafe. Customer service is fun and personable, food is good. They've been through so much and persevered. It's beautiful to see them doing well. read more

We've been here three times- each time the food has been absolutely outstanding. Small place so bring your patience and good manners- it's worth the wait! read more

If you want to go to a pathetic "cafe" with an unpleasant atmosphere, have the owner/cook come out from the kitchen and chew you out after the waitress just seated you and then overhear the same owner/cook loudly b#tch about you and the other customers, receive the wrong order and then be overcharged for the wrong order, then this dump of a so-called "cafe" is the place for you. The only reason I did not get up and walk out is the waitress pleaded for me to stay and profusely apologized for her imbecilic boss. Please don't waste your time and money at this place, there are far better restaurants in Belgrade. read more

Greasy food, barely made it the couple miles home to the bathroom. Not a friendly welcoming atmosphere. Thought we would try again after years ago saying we wouldn't go back. Now it is solidified. Got literally anywhere else. A town pump breakfast sandwich will treat you better. read more

Place has gone terribly downhill since 2020. Take your business across the street to Café Havana and get a much more welcoming customer experience. One day these ladies are all smiles and rainbows , next day it's your fault the sun came up. Won't know what you'll get till you walk in. read more

The good: cute decor and several of the wait staff were pleasant and attentive. The bad: as we were seated, the hostess cleaned off the table and chairs and then just told us to wait while it dried... was it that hard to just go grab a dry towel? Also, had to wait and beg for coffee and water refills. The ugly- eggs Benedict served with mushy hash browns, and runny sauce. To make matters worse, one of the eggs was beyond even a fried egg. After simply asking if I could get a fresh poached egg, I was approached by an extremely angry and aggressive cook who told me that there was nothing wrong with the egg and that's how we cook them here. Was so unnecessary and all that needed to happen was for someone in the kitchen to poach a 50 cent egg. read more

This is for Nick. Either get spellcheck or quit replying while you're impaired. Maybe read some other responses that business owners post to give you an idea of what to say. Attacking the review is in bad taste, as is the food. The place is a dive and has awful food. If you don't want negative reviews, then up the game and overhaul the menu. Get professional help...something. read more

Food sucks, service sucks, and the owner sucks. She will talk sh*t, while hiding in the back like a chicken sh*t, even when you try to give her business and abide by her strict seating policy. Surprised she is still trying to be involved in the food service industry. Nice place inside, just needs something else in there. Go to Bairs! It's worth the wait. read more

Apparently the owner is oblivious to all the negative comments, we must all be delusional. Or maybe we just all have a basic standard we expect to enjoy a nice meal in a good restaurant. My bad. The chairs have wobbly legs because they are old and outdated, and the smell is just nasty. read more

Good food, great for Hockey fans, friendly people! Coffee was good and service was quick! I would definitely recommend and will return! read more

Center Ice - Cafes Near Me - Belgrade, Montana

we placed an order with this café through DoorDash and never received it. When we called, the manager was extremely rude on the phone and said they don't do online orders but my credit card was charged. I will be disputing this charge and never visit this establishment again. read more

My mom and I came in for breakfast one day last week as we enjoyed it when they first opened up. Well it was a whole different ball game this time around. There are only 10 tables, maybe? Half of the people already had food but the kitchen "was too backed up" we had to wait 25mins for them to even take our order and then another 35 waiting for food. We asked for a cinnamon roll she claimed they weren't done they were in oven and take 45mins. We were there an hour and a half asked if we can get one to go and they "still weren't done" My mom wanted an omelet but add another veggie and they couldn't add or change anything the cook/owner yells and I mean yells out. "No add on no changes, comes as is!" Like um okay.. I really think they need to get it together alil better as the cook/owner seemed very stressed out with the orders that were coming in... I'd rather go to corner Cafe and wait and atleast get better service and food. read more

We discovered this cafe on SeizetheDeal, and went for Easter breakfast with another couple. Center Ice Cafe is at the old Cousins Cafe location in Belgrade, Montana. The owners, Brant and Rhonda Gilbert, work the cafe, and are the nicest most attentive servers you would ever expect at any restaurant. The environment is entertaining and fun to enjoy. We had the basic breakfasts, eggs, bacon and a couple pancakes. The eggs and bacon were just as ordered. I especially liked the hash browns which were browned, but not greasy or overly spiced. The Gilbert's are excited about their restaurant, as well as their future plans to expand into the adjoining space tentatively May 1st. They have new and exciting plans for an Internet cafe, bakery, ice cream and coffee shop. Stay tuned and keep your eyes on that space in Belgrade!!!! read more

One star is for the charming decor, and one is for the two wait staff who looked embarrassed and tried to explain what had just happened. Long story short, my friend and I dared to ask for a modification of our eggs benedict that would put it on the potatoes, instead of a muffin. Then our meal came and the eggs were cooked to nearly well-done. We made a polite request for one of the hardest eggs to be replaced. The next thing we knew, a very angry cook came out of the kitchen and yelled as us for daring to ask. To add to the disappointment, everything was super salty. read more

The food is passable, the service is subpar, looks good inside. The main issue is the owner and staff. Rhonda is a disgusting person and of weak character. If you say anything negative she will lie in response to try and discredit it. I have given her and her cafe two chances and it has been worse every time. The first time, I heard a server say something blatantly racist to another customer. She was informed about it later, via Google review and she defended her racist sever. Disgusting. The second time, my food was severely undercooked I wrote a review about it on Google. And again she spouted off nonsense about what I ordered she was wrong. She said she checked the cameras and other bullshit. But somehow got every detail wrong. As I said the main issues are her and some of the staff. As I stated at the beginning she is an awful person of weak character. And lies in response to negative and factual reviews. All around just a despicable person read more

The woman owner was rude to us...we came in from the cold, there were 3 tables so we sat down. She came unglued, raised her voice and yelled that we should have waited to be seated...we should have left. You'd think that being a "breakfast place" the ultimate be good at it. Definitely not. Overcooked eggs x 2, warm sausages and cold toast. A 1 on a scale of 1 to 10. read more

Wonderful local family owned lunch spot! Friendly, fast, delicious! Pulled pork sandwich was amazing! They spoke the pork in house. 25+++ ice cream flavors too!!! read more

Had the club and burger. Food was awesome! Server made you feel like you were at home. Wonderful little cafe. Definitely recommend!!

Such a good transition from the place it was before! Fantastic priced, super friendly staff, and perfect service. We will be back soon!!! :)

Worst waffles i have ever had. My husband agrees. They just crumble and fall apart, and taste horrible. Other food is mediocore. We wont be back. read more

Local, friendly, Good diner food - what more do you want? It's a place where they know your name. Places like these are vanishing fast - where someone who really knows how to cook is in the kitchen - not a chain restaurant full of teenagers. We have lived in Belgrade for 2 1/2 years and it took us all this time to find it. We will be regulars from now on. read more

Great breakfast served up really fast. You really do have time for breakfast! Very cheerful and efficient waitstaff, and whoever's doing the cooking really knows what they're doing. Next I need to try the new place they opened next door, serving ice cream, coffee & espresso drinks, etc. We're making Center Ice our before-church tradition on Sunday mornings. read more

Very nice place to eat. We ate breakfast here. The owners are very nice and engaging. I highly recommend Center Ice. I'll be back for sure.

My husband and I stopped here for lunch. The food was excellent and my husband made me sorry I hadn't tried the Malibu Chicken sandwich. He said it was delicious. I can't complain, though, as Jerry's club was thick with ham and also yummy. It was also refreshing to be offered a side of cottage cheese as an option. We will be returning here when we next fly through Bozeman. read more

Great little gem. I have stopped in twice from the airport, once for breakfast and once for lunch with my family. Everyone ordered something different for lunch and everyone was pleased with their choice. I had biscuits and gravy for breakfast - delicious! Very friendly and welcoming service from the couple who owns it read more

Poor excuse for breakfast. Everything we ordered came out wrong. The worse part is when asked how our food was, the waiter copped an attitude. I do not recommend eating here. A waste of 30 bucks for two people. read more
