The chicken pot pie was amazing- the best I've ever had. Service was very fast. Beignets were also delicious. You can sit on the rooftop and enjoy the view. read more

We went to Blackstar twice during a trip to Whitefish. The food is consistent and very good. The views from the second floor and roof top are great. Unfortunately, their service is terrible. The idea of ordering as you go from a QR code is unique and likely saves them money on staffing. It's also a relaxed way of visiting with whomever you're with and allows each in the group to pay for their own meals without splitting checks. However, other than bringing your food, bussing and cleaning of tables rarely takes place. The smashburger and cowboy chicken were great. If you go, it'll be for the food but know what you're getting re: service. read more

Delicious char grilled chicken sandwich! It was very juice and the bun was great. Caesar Salad was regular. Lots of seating. Casual place.

What can I say about this place it's one of a kind, very good food and service love coming here to have a good beer with friends a. Watch a game read more

Restaurant front nice and inviting. Took the stairs to the rooftop, only a few spots, picked a table that had not been bussed. Young man picked up the dishes. We were excited to review menu and it offered adequate number of choices. Food was good. Ordering was by QR code, not too bad. First issue was tip was requested prior to any interface with a human other than the young man who picked up the plates, oh, did not wipe the table. No setups were provided, but there were extra napkins on the next table. After the order was received, still no utensils or napkins. A bit later drinks were received, and dropped on the table. Conversation, no glasses. We were never approached, no one. Would have liked water, no one to ask. Going back to the tip thing, if this was a normal process, a penny would have been generous. And that's not me. Sad the good food and the atmosphere was not enough for a pleasant time in Whitefish. skip it. read more

Great location in downtown Whitefish. Blackstar is the Restaurant and Jeremiah Johnson is the brewery. A contemporary and fresh interior. Lots of space and seating. An upstairs balcony and indoor or outdoor seating. A pleasant surprise to find purse hooks on the tall tables. Enjoyed a beer and some beignets. You must share the beignets, it's a large serving. My pic is after we ate about 3/4s. You order at the bar and they bring to you. The menus looks great and if I base the food on the beignets, then it is excellent. The honey butter is to die for. Great selection of beers. Not just a list of IPAs. Different styles done right. Servers were pleasant and food came out quickly. We visited on a Thursday afternoon. Can imagine the weekend being busy. Will return. read more

I LOVE this Brewery! It was pumping out the blues and Muddy Waters with lots of positive vibes. All our food was delish and devoured! We had a table of 4 sitting upstairs where you can view their big screen. This establishment is modern hip and rustic just like Montana We had the following: Guacamole and chips- the Guacamole was homemade and had an extra lime and spicy flavor that explodes in your mouth. The chips were thin, crisp and salted to perfection. We really enjoyed this appetizer. Enough for 4. House-Cut Fries- golden, homemade, perfect thickness and crispy! On-point! Smash burger: Absolutely heavenly! Crispy burger with lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese, caramelized onions and a special tangy sauce. The bun was toasted golden. Great meal and was delivered quickly. The staff was all smiles. (Even their ice is amazing!) Note: when you enter, you pick a table that has a number on it and then you go to the bar to order your food and you give them your table number. A little strange, but it was efficient and easy. read more

Yum! Super classy establishment. Good menu - limited but good and food was out super quickly. There is a downstairs area that's contemporary and modern - think metal and leather and floor to ceiling windows. There is a second bar area with seating upstairs. Again - same decor. We stopped in for a quick bite before an afternoon hike and chose a smash burger and quinoa salad. I loved the quinoa salad which was served with a light lemon vinaigrette and quinoa, arugula, grilled rainbow carrots, grilled leaks and bell peppers. Super light and delish. I killed it and I don't love arugula generally. Super clean bathrooms and friendly service. read more

They have a great beer selection as well as a fabulous root beer! The smash burger was very good. My favorite was the beer queso with chorizo which was excellent!! Great service and is my new favorite place! read more

This placed looked super cool from the outside so we decided to stop in for some drinks. We walked around for a while to the various areas to decide where to sit and we decided on the small ledge outside since it was a nice night out. The menu offerings sounded good and we ended up sharing a bottle of wine, pesto pizza and a Caesar salad. It was a comfortable place to sit and chat, and I'd recommend it to anyone visiting. There was a wide variety of things going on here, date nights, game nights, football watch parties and more. read more

This establishment is about a year old. It's 3 stories in all, including a rooftop area. There are bars on both levels one and two. You walk in and place your order at the bar and seat yourself. I had a chopped salad with falafel bites and a glass of CA Chardonnay. The salad is delightfully delicious, and the falafel was not dry and hard, but moist and tasty as it should be. I was happy about this considering the salad cost me $22 and the Char $12. I even tipped the staff. Service was meh, however. I walked in, placed my order at the bar on the ground level. The young lady asked where I was sitting. I told her I wanted to check out the rooftop area. She said she needs a table to put my food order in, but said no big deal, just pick a section facing Railway St. So I went up there but found no tables in the shade, so decided to seat myself on the second level. I approached the bartender behind the bar of the second level and told her that I told her colleague below I was going to be on the rooftop, but wanted to be on this level instead. Her response was, "Oh, but if you said rooftop, then your food will be sent to the rooftop." I asked her if she could possibly communicate to either her colleague or the kitchen that my chopped salad was going to be on the second level instead. She said ok. And then it was fine. My food came to me right where I was. But honestly, who says that to a customer?! People change their minds all the time. Don't make it like you can't accommodate. I also had to ask for water, helped myself to napkins, and that was that. No other service. So you wonder what is the gratuity for? If anything, it should go directly to the kitchen staff as they're the ones working hard back there while the bartenders just twiddle their thumbs not doing a whole lot. Not even a simple check-in. I also heard this same bartender tell a customer she had "no idea what chicken kaarage was." Hmm, sounds like to me, management needs to train its employees on the menu so that all are educated and can speak more wisely to customers. That was a lost sale on that food item. In all, nice open, airy establishment with plenty of seating, a solid menu, beer on tap, and some wines. Front of house service, however is lacking. Also, if you want to put a table number for when people order at the bar, then make it clear on your sign that folks need to pick a seat first, then order at the bar. Ok read more

Loved the casual dining atmosphere! You order at the bar, tell them where you are sitting (first, second, or third floor/rooftop patio) and they bring your food to you. Originally we planned to sit on the rooftop, but there was no shaded areas and it was very sunny so we sat on the couches at the top of the stairs, right before you walk onto the patio. This worked out perfect for my active baby who didn't want to sit still! The falafel burger was tasty, nothing to WOW about but it was good. My husband enjoyed his pizza and said the crust was delish. I had an IPA (can't remember the name) and it was perfect! *Mom tip: elevator only goes to the second floor, so you'll need to carry your stroller up stairs if you plan to sit on the patio. read more

We drove here from Columbia Falls because it was one of the few places open later at night. Most places in town close around 8-9 but we drove and hiked all day and needed something open later. This place is open due to the brewery aspect but they serve the food late as well. The inside definitely caught me off guard as I was expecting a small town local country vibe. However, this place is hipster and definitely gives off big city vibes. There's a bar top to the right with open seating and some couches. There's an upstairs with seating as well. We sat downstairs and you can either go up to the counter and order or scan the barcode and order from your phone. We decided to order from our phone. The water is self serve, which I love but the cups were way too small. The menu was not ideal. You could only look at the menu on your phone to order but they did not tell you what was included. They have 5-6 house made pizzas but do not tell you what ingredients are on it. When I looked on their website, the ingredients ended up being different... We didn't try and of the local crafts and stuck to water but we started with a Caesar and the side of fries. The ketchup is self serve but they give you their special sauce with the fries which was AMAZING. It was extremely flavorful with a hint of spice, super delicious even with the pizza. The Caesar was good and had the perfect amount of sauce on it. However, it is over flavored with lemon and would have preferred the lemon on the side. For the pizza, I ordered the pesto pizza with pepperoni and sun peppers with mushrooms. I'm not sure if the pizza even comes with mushrooms but it said that online. There was also artichoke on the pizza but to be honest, it was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. It was definitely a thinner crust and super greasy but the quality was so good. Super flavorful and delicious! read more

I like this place, but there is one huge downside. Do not order the chicken wings. They are the most overpriced item on the menu, and definitely not worth what they cost. They had a slightly rubbery consistency, some of the wing bones were broken and had bone chunks in the meat, and they were very heavy-handed with the sauce. In addition, we were given a store bought single serving cup of to go ranch with a peel off top like you might see a cheap hotel as a side for dipping. Now, for the good stuff, the beer is fantastic, the Smashburger is better than average. And the pizza is one of the best in town. I will definitely be coming back, but I now know not to waste my money on the chicken wings. read more

We had some great beer, alongside a burger and a white pizza (kale, sausage+) . Both we delicious! Great rooftop and laid back atmosphere read more

Blackstar Brewery - Chicken Pesto Sandwich and Smash Burgers the bomb! Love the White Pizza and the Jeremiah Johnson Beers killer. Love this place!! - Pizza Near Me - Whitefish, Montana

Very solid burgers and beers. Fast service even on a busy night. The other places in whitefish need to learn something here. So tired of long lines and no reservations. This place has a short menu, but it's fast and affordable and solid smash burgers. Kind of like a much more upscale five guys, and that's a compliment. Fun family place. read more

If you are looking for a good smash burger here's your place, not spectacular but still good! Bison chili was good as well! Not a drinker but looked to have a lot of craft beer! read more

Fun atmosphere, terrible food. Greasy, too salty, hamburgers and fries for $40? It's pretty much self serve, order and pay before you get your food, no one asks if everything is okay, no one provides any service except to drop your food off at the table. read more

Great food! Outstanding service! The smashburger had crispy edges. Went perfectly with their cold, Blackstar beer! read more

Sat at the bar. Full of flies. Ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with bbq on side plus fries. Got a dark meat fried chicken sandwich with no fries or bbq sauce. Food was not good. Chicken was stringy. Fries tasted frozen and left a bad after aftertaste. Never saw my bbq sauce. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else, anywhere else. read more

Stumbled upon this place walking around downtown Whitefish. The food was good especially the giant soft pretzel. Excellent beers along with an excellent view. We did have an issue with one of the items we ordered but the manager was more than willing to make it right. Nice to see management that cares about customers in a tourist area, it is rare to see the more I travel. Don't hesitate to stop into this establishment. read more

Atmosphere was great. That's about it. Fries were cold and hard, pizza tasted like it was out of a box... and not a Margherita, just cheese...don't bother asking for anything because it's basically order thru an app and have it brought to you. No follow up"how's your food", "need a box", "want another drink"...first clue should have been "find your own seat". Don't go, plenty of other great places in Whitefish. Heck. Just go next door to the sport place. read more

Such kind and friendly service! Good beer. Great food and even some vegan options. Very dog friendly! Highly recommend.

Got two beers canned to-go. I opened them a couple of hours later. One was already flat and not filled to an appropriate level. The staff are friendly but seemed overwhelmed. It was also overpriced but having beer canned fresh is always a cool thing. I wish the town recycled more but that's for another app. read more
