Kalispell has many chain restaurants, however, there are some great local spots to enjoy!
Right on the grounds of our ceremony/reception, there is the fabulous Snowline Coffee house. With summer specialty drinks!
It's summer and let's be real we all LOVE ice cream! Sweet Peaks Ice cream in downtown Kalispell is the perfect place to stop and get your ice cream fix, especially after a hike!
Whitefish is such an adorable town! There downtown area is absolutely the best! The shops are unique, interesting, and the downtown vibe is so fun!
Some of our favorite restaurants downtown are:
Piggyback BBQ - their queso, pulled pork, and sauces are delicious!
Amazing Crepes - who doesn't love Nutella and strawberry crepes?!?!
Buffalo Café - Mike loves the Nicole's French Toast
Great Northern Bar - Ashley LOVES their crinkle cut fries, and Mike enjoys the ping pong table! You will also find a few nods to Wisconsin throughout the bar!

Columbia Falls is a cute little hodunk not to far outside of Glacier National Park. There are so many cute coffee shops and ma and pa restaurants.
We absolutely loved Ghostland Coffee! As the sign says, "coffee that slaps." Ghostland coffee also has delicious breakfast burritos, cheesy breakfast hashbrowns, and cinnamon waffles! Great for a pre hike breakfast!
We also enjoyed Cowgirl Coffee - they even had a Taylor Swift themed drink!
Another spot we didn't get to try, but came recommended to us is Pete's Fried Chicken truck!
