fishtail general store
Gail P.

While traveling east from Idaho and on the way to Butte, Montana, my son and I stopped off at this awesome Old West trading store. A little bit off the beaten path, but well worth it, Fishtail General Store is authentically a real General Store. They have everything here: food & drink, cool T-shirts, camping, hunting, & fishing gear, hand-crafted toys, & locally-made candles and soap. I was so happy to find some real heart-shaped boxes adorned with flowers. They were beautiful and I bought both of them. The grocery selection is pretty good for a store right off the freeway. The website says Fishtail General offers "an old meat market section of the store with a world famous "Fishtail General Store Special Sausage". This is a delicacy treasured by regular customers. The full line of grocery items includes fresh baked bread, pies, cinnamon rolls, pizza, deli sandwiches made to order, and other goodies. I can attest to their wonderful deli sandwiches which my boy and I gobbled up. Perhaps it's that all the fresh mountain air makes a coastal tourist hungry? The store offers hand-dipped ice cream cones. Those under the age of 9 can get a cone for only 10 cents. Located in south-central Montana in the foothills of the northern Rocky Mountains, Fishtail is smack in the middle of the finest hunting, trout fishing, skiing and eye-popping scenery on the planet. I was astonished, as we were driving into Montana, to look up on a ridge and see a juvenile brown bear-in May! Usually the bears are still hibernating so this was quite an unusual sight. I remember thinking how shiny and glossy the bear's fur was in the sunlight and that this was a very good omen. In the back of the store, there is a huge wooden table with benches, where visitors can "sit and rest for a spell." Oh, don't forget to find a spot on the table to carve your autograph! Out here in the Wild West, that is not considered graffiti or defacing a public area, it is WELCOMED! How trippy is that-they want you to tag their furniture? 5 Yelp Stars for being a friendly spot to stop & welcome city slickers who can leave their ghetto handle on furniture without threat of arrest!
