I got a lavender latte. You can pick your brew of espresso! Which I thought was SO neat! I've never been able to do that before. The drink was incredible, but the croissant! Whoa! It was an EXPERIENCE! The perfect amount of crunchy on the outside but the inside is flaky and just the smallest hint of sweet. Hands down the BEST croissant I've ever had. Side story- they close at 1pm on Saturday, I was working on my computer and lost track of time. Even thought they were closed they didn't kick any of us out OR ask us to leave. They just locked the door so no more people came in. No dirty looks, nothing. They just let the people still inside enjoy their drinks and food. I thought that was incredibly sweet. I would GLADLY go here again!

After we ordered, however, we were bummed to find them promoting anti-ICE ideology in a prominent way at the front counter. Can't a coffee shop just make good coffee and not get political? If not for having political things a prominent part of the experience, I probably would give this place five stars. But it takes away from the experience if, even when you are just trying to get a drink and a bite to eat, you must ascribe allegiance to some cause or some political agenda. Typical Missoula I guess. I just would love to be able to have a relaxing time getting a cup of coffee and nobody carrying whether my values are democrat or republican, ICE or anti-ICE.

The pastry case is impressive with a huge selection of pastries, bagels, and goodies, including massive pies that are hard to resist. Coffee and tea options cover all the standard classics, plus some fun twists that keep the menu interesting. The coffee is good for the area but nothing outstanding. The space itself is large with plenty of seating options, and it never feels overly crowded, which is a big plus if you want to sit and relax for a while. Unfortunately, the service has gone downhill. The baristas used to be incredibly friendly, remembered drink orders, and made you feel genuinely welcome. Lately, it feels rushed and impersonal, like you're just being pushed through the line with little acknowledgment. The experience has been very hit or miss, which makes it hard to want to return regularly. Overall, amazing pastries and pies, solid drinks, and a great space, but the inconsistency in service is what keeps this from being a frequent stop for me anymore.

Overall, it was just okay…read more The croissants were a bit different from what you'd typically expect and the quiche was actually really good. The coffee was solid as well. That said, the pastries overall were a little on the dry side and didn't really stand out compared to other bakeries in the area. The selection also felt somewhat limited, so if you're looking for a wide variety, this might not be your spot. Service was good and friendly, and it worked fine for a quick stop, but it didn't quite live up to some of the other bakeries nearby. We've definitely had better.

Biscuits and gravy was very disappointing: Biscuits- hard, chewy but the taste was good if that makes sense. Actually had to use my knife to cut the biscuit properly over cooked or warmed in a microwave?? For the Elk gravy- it was disgusting, there was a couple small specks of meat to be found. But it was over powering taste of onions. They should call it Onion gravy because that's all you can taste and no meat. Definitely don't not recommend the biscuit and gravy! The rest of the breakfast was fine and tasty. Coffee is very strong and bold flavor. Not for the weak of heart. A lot of people have commented on the wait time for their food. So we had about a 15 minute wait to get seated and the food took 40 minutes from the time we ordered until it arrived at the table. Will I go back? Yes I want to try some more of the food. But unless they change the biscuits and gravy don't order it.

Waitresses were more interested at yelling across the restaurant to each rather than taking care of…read morecustomers, I was asked for my drink order three different times because the waitress chose not write it down and couldn't remember an order of black coffee, waited 10 minutes for a simple hot chocolate to come out of the kitchen, and the waitress had to come back and ask whether it was a mocha or a hot chocolate two minutes after she took the order. My coffee was never refilled, nor was there an offer of a refill on my black coffee until they literally brought the check. And then, after receiving less than stellar service, when they saw that I wasn't tipping on my credit card was actually verbally scoffed at with expectation by the waitress who was processing the card to the point where it made my wife uncomfortable, and she had to tell them that there was a cash tip on the table. Had I known their behavior would continue to be so abhorrent towards their customers I wouldn't have bothered to leave a cash tip either. Unfortunately, the food is great, but the atmosphere is about as good as an outhouse in summer. As a Missoula native and longtime liquid planet customer, we won't be spending any more money with that business, or any of their other locations.

We walked here after I found the coffee at the nearby Comfort Inn unbearable. The funny part is:…read morethe coffee at the hotel was from Drum. The difference was: the coffee shop had all the good plant milks. I also bought a "drumstick", which was like a homemade energy bar. It was definitely calorie-dense and tasty. My daughter and I both liked the vibe... you can see all the bags of imported coffee beans and the light fixtures are cool. The two baristas were definitely busy but they were also positive and helpful. Coffee was ready fairly promptly and tasted better than the no-milk version offered at the hotel. It was a little strong for my liking but (as I stated before) a little plant milk made it bearable.
