The sandwich is unique, and if made right, is a tasty treat away from the normal. I have always gotten the traditional "Loaded", but you can get one in a variety of ways. The history of the sandwich is why it's a Butte Original. The location on Harrison has changed since I lived here. 2020 didn't help. We still have had decent success at this Location in the dining room. The drive through I have not used since that 'one' time. Staff tonight are great and friendly. The cook was amusing me as he discussed his preferred way of having the orders translated. They do have their own techniques to say the least. I've posted a menu as it stands in October of 2024, and it clearly shows all that they have to offer if you aren't willing to try the Chop.

I haven't been yet, but plan to visit Butte for this sandwich this fall. I talked to an original…read moreButte native about this. This is a "go to"location to pick up this classic Butte pork chop sandwich for carry out, but I'll also go to the Freeway Tavern for the same as a sit down meal restaurant. This sandwich was noted on YouTube as the classic Butte sandwich, with creation long ago, and still it's the "go to" sandwich in Butte!

I was REALLY looking forward to our stop at THE ORIGINAL Pork Chop Johns. Butte is kind of the…read moremecca for pork chop sandwiches, and it all started at this original location. I have had the pork chop sandwiches at other Butte, Montana locations, but it never worked out to try the original until now. I was SO excited!! This location is in the Uptown area. Very convenient for us, as we were only staying a couple blocks away. There is an exterior order/pickup window, and very limited stool/counter sitting inside. (About 10 stools, I think.) I really wanted the full experience, so we went inside and took a seat. There were only two other customers sitting at the counter. The gentleman inside grabbed an order pad and a pen and walked up to us. We said hi. He said hi. We waited for him to adk for our order, but he just kept doodling, so we finally told him what we wanted: two pork chop sandwiches, one order of fries, and one large milkshake. A few minutes later he returned with two sandwiches and sort of tossed them at us. About 4-5 minutes later, he tossed a paper bag of fries in our direction. Then he stood in front of us, with his back to us, and made a milkshake for a customer that came in after us. Then he mixed up ranch dressing and started filling cups with the dressing. Also with his back to us. (We sat directly in front of the milkshake machine.) He did not acknowledge us again. We did not receive our milkshake. When we got up to leave, I thought he might turn around and give us our bill, but he continued to ignore us. Would not even turn around. So I walked down the counter to where the cash register was located, thinking he might come and take our money then. Nope. He would not even turn around. There was a guy standing just to the side of us on the other side of the counter. He was cooking the food. He sort of ignored us for a couple of minutes as well, but he was really busy, so I understood why he didn't have time for us. He finally did ask us what we had, and I told him "two pork chop sandwiches and one order of fries. And a large milkshake, but we never got that." He replied, "Ok. $15.75" and that was it. No surprise, apology, explanation, nothing. Sort of seemed like he was used to it. I regret it now, but I gave him a $20 and walked out. That was too much of a tip for what was possibly the rudest, worst service we have ever received. I will never go back to this place. It was incredibly disappointing. The best pork chop sandwich is just down the road at Freeways Tavern. I will be going there for my pork sandwich fix from now on. Oh.... I better talk about the food. The service was so bad, I forgot. The breaded pork patty is very thin. But it is tender and good. The sandwich itself was decent size. It came with mustard, onion, pickle, lettuce, and tomato - as a pork chop sandwich should. The fries were crispy. Everything was very hot. There are better pork chop sandwiches in Butte. But this is the original, so every other one is a copy of this one. Too bad the horrible, rude service will keep us away.

A Hidden Gem in Philipsburg!…read more After a full day of sapphire hunting with the family, we were ready for something sweet--and Philipsburg Creamery absolutely delivered! This place is an essential stop if you're anywhere near town. I had the Cookies and Cream and the Caramel Sea Salt, and WOW. Both were insanely good--the perfect balance of creamy, rich, and flavorful. You can tell it's homemade with love, not the generic stuff. The Caramel Sea Salt had that perfect sweet-and-salty combo, and the Cookies and Cream was packed with real cookie chunks. The shop itself has this cozy old western style that fits the vibe of historic Philipsburg perfectly. Super charming and full of character. The staff were all incredibly friendly and welcoming--made the whole experience even better. Whether you're exploring, sapphire hunting, or just passing through, don't leave town without stopping here. It's homemade ice cream heaven.
