Lunch stop going north on Hwy 93. Big Cat Cafe turned out to be a very nice surprise. So warm and toasty with a fire burning. Great service. Great food.

So I found this place road tripping in Montana when I cake through a cool little town. This place is super lovely and has a cool story. From one of the waitresses I found out this use to be a local saloon and another little bar/casino. So what they did was keep the rad saloon and removed the bar portion of the bar/casino to make an absolutely beautiful dining area and converted the casino portion the the lobby. It's all connected and done in a beautiful way. Really well done how they have kept the old rustic vibe of Montana yet wove in this new and modern beautiful addition. It just opened a month or so ago with all the changes apparently. It's an impressing place. Side note: there is horse shoe competition out in the outside portion of this place every Sunday at 3:00. What a cool thing. - Food: The waitress suggested a burger so I followed her call. The burger was super good and super fresh. Loved the burger. I was only able to eat halftime was so big. - Service: The service was wonderful and super nice and was constantly checking on me even though the place was pretty full. - Drinks: I just got one drink but man it was STRONG. So well done bartender/waitress. - Value: Great value. My massive burger with salad was only $10.75. My drinks were super cheap as well which is what you'd expect from a place like this. The total for the meal with a massive burger and two drinks was $19.00. That's some great value. - Location: The location is in a beautiful little town in the mountains and it the decor is just on point Overall, I'm really glad I was able to experience this place and suggest anyone in the area to do the same. Just a really lovely experiment.

I'm giving this place a solid five stars for having extremely friendly service and good down to earth food. I was staying nearby, and admittedly there isn't much around here save for a few ranches, including the "Dutton Yellowstone Ranch" however the town of Darby was perfectly pleasant. I enjoyed some delicious loaded fries with thick cuts of bacon and queso; for a second, I thought I'd actually have a heart attack but thank goodness for ice cold beer to wash it all down. I highly recommend going with other people so you can try various things. Unfortunately the fries were soooo filling that I could hardly move after.

The COD was the best I've ever had. The two young ladys who waited in us were perfect. Here for a couple days likely will return.

Our goal on this trip was to hit the 406 for some food. However !As me and my girlfriend and my mom were out shopping I noticed the sawmill. Didn't know anything about it never walked in there. Thought it was just a saloon. After talking with a couple locals sitting on the bench outside the liquor store I asked if the saloon had food and s good place to go as it already had 4 1/2 stars versus going to the 406. They said hands-down the sawmill was the place to be. Upon walking in I know I made the right choice. The older grizzly bartender man was working his ass off. The ambience was good. The crowd was good. So many nice people to talk to. Can't vouch for gambling though. We' were gonna order the recommended fish and chips which is always fresh never frozen but we instead elected to go with the meat pizza pie. So fantastic. We got the thin crust version. Could've used a little extra cheese, but they have that option in the add-on. After leaving the saloon, my mom just kept raving about how great the place was and now it is gonna be our new staple as we travel up the West Fork. Well done sawmill. You earned our business.! Pro tip. Deface government property by decorating your dollar bill and have them put it on the wall.! if you find were they stapled it to the ceiling when you revisit you get a free drink.

Antler's Saloon - cheese and bbq brisket pizza

I've had a lot of pizza in my 40 years on this earth, so when people claimed that the Antler Saloon…read morehad the best, I was skeptical but had to try it. The saloon is very "small town." When we walked in the residents of Wisdom sort of stared at us. That's o.k. because everyone was really friendly. The walls are decorated with lots of animals and there are a few video poker machines. So we ordered the "Everything" pizza. The server told us that it would indeed have everything on it from anchovies to sauerkraut. We are not picky and got it anyway. It didn't take long before the pizza came out which is surprising because everything takes longer in MT. The pizza was fantastic! The crust was great with that wood oven char to it. (Don't know if it's actually made in a wood oven but it tasted like it.) The cheese was melty and it the toppings were plentiful! It was more than enough for two people. I'm sort of embarrassed that I ate as much as I did, but couldn't stop because it was that good! This was indeed probably the best pizza I've ever had! When we go back to Wisdom, the Antler Saloon will be one of our first stops!

The pizza in this small out in the middle of nowhere place is outstanding. Ample toppings…read more (I get them on top of the cheese) they have them all .....and tons of cheese. The crust is exceptional ... nice burn marks from a hot oven. They also have awesome sandwiches. I think the bread is the best and tastiest in Montana. The brisket and bacon with bbq sauce is my favorite. Antler's is definitely a must stop when in the Big Hole.

I'll start out saying that it's off the beaten path, lol, down a short path of the main road that looks like it doesn't go anywhere but it leads to this amazing building built by the owner of the brewery. The beer is all organic, with a small yet wonderful selection and you can tell it has been brewed with love and is great!! The Yippee IPA and the Ambitious Lager are both amazing. The interior of the building is a sight to see!! From my conversation with Jim (the owner) most of the material was reclaimed or locally sourced. It's absolutely beautiful! The ambiance is wonderful as you are sitting right next to the fermentation and brewing tanks and a wood brining furnace. The attention to detail that was put into this building is amazing! If your in the area and have never been you should be here, if your traveling through you should stop by for a beer or two...or three A hidden gem
