I live in Texas, and my niece was graduating with her master's degree from the University of…read moreMontana--such a proud moment! I wanted to surprise her with something special, but I was short on time and far from Missoula. Enter Cara at Bernice's Bakery. She was an absolute lifesaver! Not only did she help me quickly choose the perfect treat for my nephew to pick up, but she was also incredibly kind, patient, and thoughtful throughout the process. She even went the extra mile by recommending a local florist to help me complete the surprise--talk about above and beyond! Thanks to Cara, everything came together beautifully. If you're looking for amazing service and a team that truly cares, Bernice's Bakery is the place to go!

Stopped by Bernice's Bakery for a quick bite while in Missoula. Overall, it was just okay…read more The croissants were a bit different from what you'd typically expect and the quiche was actually really good. The coffee was solid as well. That said, the pastries overall were a little on the dry side and didn't really stand out compared to other bakeries in the area. The selection also felt somewhat limited, so if you're looking for a wide variety, this might not be your spot. Service was good and friendly, and it worked fine for a quick stop, but it didn't quite live up to some of the other bakeries nearby. We've definitely had better.

We had the Big Dipper ice cream truck at the welcome party for our son's wedding, and it was an…read moreabsolute hit! From the very beginning, Kelsey made the planning process easy, smooth, and stress-free. She was wonderful to work with and helped ensure everything came together perfectly. On the day of the event, Mira provided fantastic service to our family and friends with a smile and great energy. The variety of ice cream flavors was so much fun, and throughout the evening we heard rave reviews from guests about the rich, creamy, delicious ice cream. Absolutely recommend the Espresso Heath and Huckleberry flavors. So yummy! Having the ice cream truck at the party added such a fun and memorable touch to the celebration. The combination of Big Dipper's delicious ice cream and outstanding customer service made the experience even better. We couldn't have been happier and highly recommend Big Dipper for any special event!

This was the one spot locals consistently rec'd for ice cream/dessert and hooo that line was long…read morewhen we arrived lol They had a variety of flavors + options to choose from including ice cream, shakes, sundaes, etc + seasonal flavors, as well There's one line to order, you pay, and then eventually a worker will yell out an order from their adjacent window lol Now the line moves quickly but just depending on the day I could see how confusion could come up bc there were times the workers would yell out an order (they say the actual items they have prepped vs an order # or name associated) and no one would walk up and/or multiple people ordered the same thing Anyways, we got two separate kid-sized scoops of bubblegum and cotton candy, both super good! And tbh, both good sized scoops lol. They reminded me of the old school Baskin Robbin's type flavahs. The bubblegum included small pieces of gum just like da good ol days

This place could be the cool late-night spot for downtowners under 21. I like what they're doing overall, but they need to hire a consulting firm with a good chef to set them in an even better direction, with an eye for freshness (even when it's slow) and making the food as good as possible while still being cost effective. That being said, I'll take one of everything, OM NOM NOM! The service is super friendly and the vibe is ultra chill. Good tunes!

I love a good donut and it was so hard to pick from the huge selection. I must have been too late for the jelly donuts but I had the maple twist and it was easily the best donut I've ever had. I also had a taste of my friend's Boston cream. While I'm not a big fan of cream, the flavor and texture were incredible. I would highly recommend Veeras whether you're vegan or not

The pastry case is impressive with a huge selection of pastries, bagels, and goodies, including massive pies that are hard to resist. Coffee and tea options cover all the standard classics, plus some fun twists that keep the menu interesting. The coffee is good for the area but nothing outstanding. The space itself is large with plenty of seating options, and it never feels overly crowded, which is a big plus if you want to sit and relax for a while. Unfortunately, the service has gone downhill. The baristas used to be incredibly friendly, remembered drink orders, and made you feel genuinely welcome. Lately, it feels rushed and impersonal, like you're just being pushed through the line with little acknowledgment. The experience has been very hit or miss, which makes it hard to want to return regularly. Overall, amazing pastries and pies, solid drinks, and a great space, but the inconsistency in service is what keeps this from being a frequent stop for me anymore.
