Service was super friendly and quick. We had the Eggs Benedict, delicious classic dish. We also got the lemon stuffed toast. So good! Not too sweet and perfect amount of tartness. Finally we got the huckleberry (mixed berry) pie. Also super delicious and not too sweet, with a side of ice cream.

Absolutely wonderful place to have brunch or breakfast anytime you are in Whitefish. The wait time can be long when it’s rush hour. The food makes it worth the wait. Portion sizes keep you content. The service will satisfy you. Prices are very reasonable for Whitefish. Try the fresh pies! They are probably the best you will try in all of Montana!

Located in the basement of the old Masonic Temple building in Whitefish. Needed to go down stairs to reach the entrance so I'm not sure if there is an elevator access for wheelchairs. The place is popular as we had a 20 minute wait on a Thursday afternoon at 1:30pm. Spacious and bright with high ceilings and artwork of paintings and photographs for sale on the walls. It can be noisy when the place is crowded.Friendly staff with fast and efficient service. The Hollandaise sauce on the Eggs Benedict was so flavorful and the poached eggs were perfect, not runny at all! Good selection on their menu for breakfast and lunch items.
