    Half eaten Wild Mild Burrito (sorry)

    THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! We found this absolute gem on our trip through Big Fork. This is a MUST STOP, MUST VISIT, and MUST EAT! We shared a Flathead Falafel "bowl" and Wild Mild Burrito "bowl" and a Huckleberry Refresher. AWESOME! We met the owner Jenny who is just as awesome as the food and refresher. Truly a great experience!

    We are so happy to discover Maxs market!!! The food is amazing, and a breath of fresh air in an area where most restaurants have beef burgers as the main offering and no decent veggie offerings - unless you count French fries as a vegetable. The produce part of the store is quite small but the offerings are fresh. They have great books and gifts. The coffee offerings are really nice, the Wi-Fi is fast and the ambiance is great. Wish I could give them six stars.

    Well I did not know that I needed to make a reservation for Sunday brunch so I wasn't able to enjoy the vegan French toast which sounded amazing. However my husband and I had excellent sandwiches! They were fresh and delicious. Later we shared a huckleberry oat bar... yummy! Thank you

    Nice addition to Bigfork! Eclectic decor includes a space for music & gatherings. Max's is a perfect combination- a sweet & cozy country store filled with healthy groceries! Friendly folks that seem committed to bringing goodness to the community. Across the street from Burgertown, just south of the Bigfork bridge, right before Wayfarers State Park. Ideal location with decent parking in front. Good selection of fresh & locally grown veggies. Coolers are full of ORGANIC: drinks, dairy (tasty cheeses), meats, vegan foods, too. Lots of dry goods like pasta, coffees, teas, herbs, condiments, etc etc. A few nice gifty items. Small counter where you can order a coffee & treat to go. Looking forward to trying a lot more of their offerings. I love to patronize our LOCAL businesses- they keep us vital & connected!

    Max's Market is such a great little shop! I appreciate their amazing selection of products, and I've discovered some new local brands here. They also host fun community events and concerts. It's a perfect addition to Bigfork and a great place for the whole family to hang out!

    This is the tofu scramble we had

This is the kind of place where your eyes tell you, "I can finish that," and your stomach quickly reminds you who's really in charge. Even with a packed house, the service was friendly, fast, and made us feel right at home. The local neighborhood vibe is exactly what you hope for--relaxed, welcoming, and full of people who clearly know they've found a great spot. Whether you're pulling up a stool at the bar for a cocktail or settling in for a meal, you're in for a treat. Great food, generous portions, good drinks, and a fun atmosphere. We'll definitely be back... just with a little more room in our stomachs next time!

    We came to A Bar one night after a very very long day at the beautiful Glacier National Park. We…read morewere sweaty and tired and needed some salty, greasy bar food with some booze. My friends that we were staying with were locals, and they recommended A Bar, so we knew we had to try it out. It was a Friday or a Saturday night, and we arrived after nightfall, so we were worried there wouldn't be anywhere to sit, but we miraculously found a nice six top with a great view of the karaoke that was about to start. Looking around, the ambiance was really cool. It had a heavy dive bar vibe. I could perfectly picture Garth Brooks singing in the corner with a rowdy crowd packing the place. A lot of the tables were talking or shouting friendily to one another, showing me that there were a lot of locals and/or regulars there. But also, the place sold merch, as if it were a tourist attraction. A very interesting blend. Service was great. He was just a cool dude that efficiently brought to us everything we ordered. Beer showed up in a hurry, the food came out timely and nice and hot. Very nice fella. As for the food, it was surprisingly very good. Like, the best food we ate the entire time we were in Montana. We opened up with the A Bar Nachos (Corn tortilla chips smothered with melted cheddar, refried beans, taco meat, diced tomatoes, olives, jalapeno, and green onions. Served with salsa and sour cream. Wow! These were good nachos. First of all, they were huge. You can't have small plate of nachos, it's not a good look. Second of all, they were layered beautifully. Not all the toppings were topped on top, they were layered in between layers of chips, leaving no boring bites even towards the end. Third of all, they added beans. Not everyone does that, but everyone should, because it spreads well and they're a great meat substitute. Just amazing nachos. For my main meal of the night, I ordered the Cowboy Burger (1/3 pound Angus Patty, lettuce, tomato, bacon, cheddar, onion rings, and barbecue sauce on a grilled Brioche bun). Also awesome. A huge patty, cooked perfectly, sitting on a bun that was hearty enough to support it, stacked high with crispy onion rings and skewered with a giant steak knife to really set the presentation off right. A little fresh veg, a good amount of sauce, and a literal mountain of tater tots really made this a super satisfying meal. I also got to try the Shrimp Basket (Crispy Breaded shrimp, deep fried and served with French fries, cocktail sauce and lemon). These were nice. Nice, crispy shrimp, crispy tots, nothing was too greasy. A nice way to end the meal. Or so I thought that was the end. At the last second, I saw on their specials board that they had a huckleberry cheesecake. We were on the way out already, so I ordered it to go, and when I got it home, I naturally paired it with some Tillamook huckleberry ice cream and had one of the best nights of my life.

    This is the best food I've had traveling around in Montana. It's a little pricier than the other…read moreplaces, but it's worth every penny you spend. I ordered their grapefruit dirty martini. It would normally have grapefruit vodka in it, but I'm not a fan of vodka or any of its flavoring. The kind bartender substituted the alcohol to gin with a splash of grapefruit at no extra charge. I believe the bartender is the owner as it seemed to be a one man show. The same guy was our server, a bus boy, bartender, and our host! He was probably the cook too! Talk about wearing many hats! I ordered the golden and red beets with goat cheese for $12 and this came to the table looking like a colorful masterpiece. Every bite was delicious. The huckleberry creme brûlée was great! The huckleberries are hiding at the bottom of the ramiken. I'm a tourist and was on a mission to eat everything huckleberry and this dessert did not disappoint! It's a must try! My boyfriend ordered the wild mushroom crepe $16 which was roasted wild mushrooms, prosciutto and swiss cheese with mornay sauce. I thought the crepe was a little undercooked, but he absolutely loved it. I also thought it was a bit salty for my taste, but the mushrooms were tasty! I ordered the $16 grilled salmon and andouille sausage over spinach with tomatoes, fresh orange and red onion. I never heard of these two proteins together, but they make a dynamic duo! I'd like to say it's a warm salad and it was so good! The charred salmon was the star of this dish!
