Big Cat Cafe & 406 Saloon
Libby H.

Really cool restaurant right in the middle of downtown Darby, and it's also connected to the 406 Saloon. There's a middle area that has outdoor seating but a roof overhead which is where we sat and was perfect. We were told they recently vamped up their menu. Food was super good. I got the coconut shrimp with a side of white rice, my husband did the chicken strips & fries, and my stepdaughter did the mac & cheese. For dessert, we all did the chocolate lava cake. Everything was yummy and our waitress was nice. However it is pricey, our total meal was $77. My meal cost $28 basically, I thought the side of rice came with the entree because on the menu "a choice of a side" but it was added as an extra.

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.

I'm all for supporting mom and pop shops but I was very disappointed at this place. The menu was…read morefunky, which should have been a sign but we said "eh we're here already" the menu didn't have too many options, the prices were confusing, they also base price on how big you want your food, "modest, ample and extravagant ". The food was blah, the bacon was so SALTY, extra salty. I literally paid $22 for my breakfast which was 2 eggs, bacon, and potatoes with cheese and bell peppers, I'm sorry that's very steep. Service was ok, the gal not very friendly and the location is tiny. Only like 4-5 tables. The fact that we were pretty much the only ones there, we waited so long for our food. Not sure what took so long. I honestly will not come back here,

This location is right on the main highway, upon walking in you are greeted by a sign that says…read morecash or local checks only. You seat yourself and the hostess will come to you, the menu is extremely confusing for someone from out of town. I thought the menu prices were pretty good but breakfast ended up being $75 which is way overpriced for eggs, bacon and potato's. Can't really mess up on eggs but the bacon was extremely salty, it did taste smoked but the salt content burned my tongue. Service is okay; people could be a little friendlier. Overall I don't think I would be back here, it's a simple breakfast you could find anywhere.
