I've tried many of their drinks and menu items, and they've been consistently good--well-made coffee, tasty food, and a nice variety so it doesn't feel repetitive. It's also a genuinely comfortable place to sit down, whether for a casual conversation or to spread out and study for a while, with an atmosphere that feels relaxed, welcoming, and unhurried.

They are so friendly and always remember what…read moreyour usual is. if they have had you come through a few times they ask your name and they great me by name. The coffee is always good and consistant. I have been to several other places and one day you will get a white chocolate Mocha that takes one way and you back the next day and it is different . Thank you so much to all of the hard working staff dedicated to keeping this coffee connoisseur Happy!!!

It was an early morning and I had not eaten yet, my friend who worked nights was hungry so we…read more decided to try this place. It was local, close to "home" and the photos looked great! LOL! I ended up getting the three egg breakfast, with linked sausage, hash browns and a couple lemon ricotta pancakes. My friend got two eggs, the huckleberry French toast and pork linked sausage. First, let's start with the positive notes. The place was clean, there dining room was big with plenty of open tables, our server was super nice and we were seated right away, the food was good for the most part. My over medium eggs were perfectly done, my lemon ricotta pancakes were delicious but the entire experience was ruined when the server brought out the bottle of TABLE SYRUP instead of maple syrup! I realize this is a small business but I haven't eaten Mrs Butterworth syrup since I was like a child. Anyway, the pancakes were fluffy, delicious and perfectly done, the sausage however had a soft mildly off-putting texture and the hash browns seemed old and had no flavor. I would come here again but not for the hash browns or table syrup.

It was a cute…read morespot with plenty of seating inside, we were greeted by a nice hostess and had a 20 minute wait. Once seated we waited about 10 minutes for server to take our drinks, it was quite busy so this didn't seem super long. Our waitress was sweet and efficient, took our orders, brought drinks and kept them full. Food was good. Would visit again if we were in Montana. I love their Huckleberry options since it was new to me & our family. Side note they brew their own coffee grounds in house. It smelled really good!

They have a great variety, and the coffee I had was really good. I also ordered the skillet breakfast, which was incredibly tasty, and left with some cookies that I absolutely loved.

The gal who helped me was nice and answered my questions. Well located and easy to get in n out of the small 'parking' lot.

They have specialty drinks listed and they all sounded good.

I normally get all things huckleberry when in Montana but liked the gingerbread so much, I got it every time. There was one gal I had twice that was efficient but not the most outwardly friendly. Everyone else was super bubbly and great!

Summary: A comfortable coffee shop with limited selection of non-coffee items…read more This is a beverage spot and primarily coffee in the form of espresso, macchiato, latte, and frappes. There are some teas and smoothies. If you want something to eat you have even fewer choices--a selection or two among brownies, scones, and bagels. I'm not a coffee snob: My macchiato was fine. The comfortable lodge feel of heavy wood furniture, rock walls, and oversized leather sofas is very inviting. I could imagine a breakfast date, business meeting, or friendly catch-up easily going hours here. Drive-thru available.

Caramel and cinnamon rolls are great!…read more However, their service is terribly lacking! There is one person taking orders, making coffee, and getting pastries and one person making hot items. Wait times are long and it's painfully awkward to wait in line while the person who is supposed to take orders is making coffee right in front of you. The accuracy of hot food is marginal. We did a phone order and they messed it up. No cheese on one crepe and no egg on another. Also, they gave us two cinnamon rolls instead of two caramel rolls which I don't bother correcting. They could do a lot better having more staff and focusing and speed and accuracy of service. I'd recommend Great Harvest bakery or Grateful Bread instead if you're looking for a local place.
