Flathead Flavor: Discover Delicious Eats & Sips!

Flathead valley eats for you and your family




Traveling can be exhausting! The one thing that can be difficult to find are local favorites. Let me help you get a head start on your agenda by offering you the inside story to our beloved food in the Flathead Valley. 

Not very far from the North Forty Resort is a hometown favorite breakfast, lunch and dinner spot called the Night Owl & Backroom Restaurants. This two in one food joint offers breakfast/lunch from morning to afternoon. Then from 4pm-8pm the Backroom opens up for a great dinner and dining experience. Great for families equip with something that everyone will be able to enjoy. From fry bread and ribs to kids chicken tenders. Your family is sure to enjoy this hometown favorite. 

Although a visit to Glacier National Park is a top priority for many, be sure to explore Flathead Lake for breathtaking views and excellent dining options. The Tamarack Brewing Company in Lakeside offers tasty selections, including pizza, burgers, fish tacos and more! On the south side of the lake, you’ll find the charming town of Polson, where you can enjoy great coffee and a cozy brunch serving comforting, home-cooked meals. An admired spot in Polson is local Betty’s Diner. Making your way back around the lake you land in Woods Bay where restaurants sit on the water waiting for boats to come through with hungry guests. The Sitting Duck and The Raven both have docking access for boats and street access for passing guests and locals to stop by, have a drink and a good meal while overlooking the lake.

Montana is beautiful but the food makes it worthwhile no matter where you end up!
