It all began because we were completely fed up with the rat race – mortgage, bills, school runs, work, repeat. So, in mid 2016, we sold the house and gave away the majority of our belongings in order to escape convention and live on the road for a few great years. When I say ‘we,’ our tra […]

What to Eat in Glacier National Park
What to Eat in Glacier National Park

Eddie’s Café & Mercantile at Apgar offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as an ice cream shop and a gift shop with camp supplies and souvenirs. The menu features classics like sandwiches and salads, alongside some regional favorites, including bison burgers, and the patio overlooks Lake McDonald. The Lake McDonald Lodge features three dining options: Russell’s Fireside Dining Room offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, and both Lucke’s Lounge and Jammer Joe’s Grill & Pizzeria serve lunch and dinner. Try the elk burger at Russell’s accompanied by a Montana craft brew. Lucke’s also offers a traditional menu of soups, salads and sandwiches, while Jammer Joe’s is a kid favorite, serving up pizza, sandwiches, soups, salads and an all-you-can-eat lunch buffet.

The Ptarmigan Dining Room at Many Glacier Hotel doesn’t take reservations, but it’s worth the wait to dine on locally sourced ingredients served in a continental fine dining style, set off by the panoramic lake views. The menu features seared duck breast and grilled salmon, as well as classics like Cobb salad and burgers. The hotel’s Swiss Lounge offers light fare from lunch to late night: think Montana-style bar food from bison chili to sausage platters complete with pretzel chips. At the Rising Sun Motor Inn & Cabins, Two Dog Flats Grill dishes out American comfort food.

Before you leave, you’ll want to sample huckleberries, a staple Montana treat. These little berries are a cousin of blueberries, but are less sweet. At the shops in and around the park, you’ll likely find a variety of huckleberry items like candies, syrups and preserves. Alternatively, several area restaurants have huckleberry on the menu as a sandwich spread or a drizzle on cheesecake. And if you’re willing to take a drive, travelers say you can’t go wrong with a huckleberry bear claw at Polebridge Mercantile in the North Fork area.
