    I was pleasantly surprised by our time at Nell's. After a long, cold, wet hike to Grinnell Glacier, we we're looking for a place to eat, and went here at the recommendation of a Many Glacier Hotel employee. Knowing it was in the park, I was expecting it to be a bit pricier than it was, with the Bison Burger priced at $14 and chicken or beef burgers being a few dollars less. The selection on the menu isn't super wide, with Nell's offering a small assortment of burgers, sandwiches, and salads. It is counter service, so there can be a bit of waiting in line if you come during a major meal time, and it can be a bit of a battle to find a seat if you have a larger group. The restaurant itself isn't anything fancy. It's attached to a small gift shop and visitor information area, and has an older almost diner-like fee to it. I ordered a Bison Burger Western Style, which included a bag of chips as a side, with fries or other side available for an up-charge. I enjoyed trying bison. It didn't taste much different from a traditional beef burger to me. I also like that you chose the "style" of topping pairings you wanted on your burger, with western being fried onions, bbq sauce, and pickles.

    Food: 3.5/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 3.5/5 Overall: Food was fairly standard fare. The issue is that there isn't really much around this area. The extended review... Food: French Toast w/ Sausage: 3.5/5 - The food was standard fare. What I did like was the portion size and that you get a protein with the starch so I was set for my hike. Service: 3.5/5 - Friendly staff. Ambiance: 3.5/5 - Similar to a diner setting. There was a lot of room but there could be more seating if not for covid. The tables were missing though.

    This is a simple place to eat in the "Many Glaciers" area of the park. They have your standard American fare: wraps, burgers, fries, etc. The food is alright. The main reason to come here is for a beer after a hike! They are open till 10pm (in season, they aren't open in the Winter, they close in mid-September) and have 100% local beers on tap!

    This restaurant was recommended to us by our guide on a boat tour at St. Mary Lake in Glacier…read moreNational Park. She made mention that it was locally owned, AND it was the only one of the 3 restaurants she named which was open before 4pm, which is when we were there, so we trekked on over. We arrived behind a large party of about 8 people and were the only other table in the restaurant. They - or should I say he - took our order quickly and were willing to accommodate a special request (to have a breakfast dish after their stated cutoff time due to a wheat allergy; almost everything on the lunch menu is breaded/fried, so I couldn't eat it). It was clearly Native-owned, which I was happy to support. However, the poor guy who took our order was the only one in the place. He was doing everything: stocking, cleaning, taking orders, cooking. We were there for nearly an hour when the other party's food came out. By this point, we had figured out that he was flying solo, so we were sort of hoping our food would come out at the same time. It didn't. We asked if ours had been started yet, and it hadn't. Seeing that we were staying 3 hours from the park, we had to leave to meet up with our family without having any lunch. This could easily have been avoided with a little communication from the get-go: "Hey, a large party just came in ahead of you. Just so you know, it's probably going to be an hour or more before you see any food." We would have left then and had time to get lunch before starting our drive back to Augusta. As it was, we paid for our 1 drink, made do with whatever snacks we had, and hit the road. Can't comment on the food and the guy was super nice, so I hate to leave a not-great review, but I can't imagine what would have happened if 2 or more of the parties from our boat ride had arrived at the same time we had. I think a little work on the staffing side would do wonders.

A plate of zesty buffalo wings so gloriously coated in fiery sauce, I swear they winked at me. Crisp, tangy, and unapologetically bold these wings don't just land on your palate, they do a mountain-state mosh pit in your mouth. Even the buffalo sauce is like Montana's own bold character: loud, refreshing, and strangely comforting just like that first gulp of crisp tangerine squeeze. Now, let's talk about Montana's bodacious ass because, come on, if the Big Sky State were a person, she'd be strutting into Jammer Joe's in cowboy boots, flipping her non existent hair, and demanding extra ranch. She saunters in, plants herself at one of those sturdy retro style tables, and gives the staff that look that says, "Honey, bring me wings worthy of this behind"and darn it if they didn't deliver.

    We've dinned here multiple times every time we go to Glacier National Park…read more Pros: - Great customer service - Their homemade bread and homemade ranch tastes amazing. Probably the best we've ever had - All the foods we've order tasted great (chicken, bison steak, ribeye, t-bone, crab meat) - All locally sourced foods - Nice Ambiance and love all the wood structures. Cons: - Not sure if I'd consider this a con, but everyone we've dinned here, something is always different (different salad toppings, different sautéed veggies). But I completely understand being it's in the middle of "no where." - Very pricey, but once again, they're not opened year round and it's all locally sourced. You would probably pay the same price in the city for high quality meat, but at least here you're helping a small community! - My only con- I prefer my steaks with no pink and well done (I know, I know). Cut into your steak as soon as you get if you're like me so you can see if they need to cook it more. You're steak will most likely be undercooked, but it's because they're THICK pieces of meat (which is a pro) We will be back the next time we're in Glacier ^_^ 2022- 2024

    Our server Melissa was top notch, super friendly and helpful. Great service here…read more The steaks were cooked a little rarer than what I'm used to. But the flavor and tenderness was great. The bread was kind of bland, but fine with butter. It seemed denser than what I am used to. The baked potato on the side was amazing. The Calamari was prepared differently than what I'm used to, I wasn't as into it, but it tasted good. The fillet of tenderloin was by far the best of the 3 steaks. Much more tender and much better flavor. I highly recommend it. We got the Molten lava chocolate cake, and it was not as good. Seemed too doughy. Didn't really like it, also didn't like the cheesecake. Restrooms were stocked, but their soap was weak. The restrooms weren't very clean, and you had a lever to turn off and on the water to the urinal in the men's bathroom. Odd.

We ordered the Tot-chos (half order to share among six people) and I also got a huckleberry soda for myself as well as the bison (classic) burger with sweet potato fries. For dessert, we shared two scoops of huckleberry ice cream (from Sweet Peaks), the bread pudding and the beignets. I loved the Tot-chos, and the half order was honestly a pretty big size already! The huckleberry soda was pretty sweet (I think it had 41 grams of sugar), but I don't regret trying it. The bison burger wasn't bad, it definitely tasted similar to beef, but it was a huge burger so I couldn't finish it. The sweet potatoes were also delicious. In terms of the dessert, I had gone to Sweet Peaks already and liked their huckleberry flavor a lot, so I was excited to see them on the menu. People at my table loved the bread pudding. I thought the beignets were not bad, but they weren't as good as the other desserts.
