We were looking to book a private chef dinner, and our Airbnb host recommended a few options--one of which was Chef Chad's company, XCalibur. After doing some research, I decided to book with Chef Chad, and I'm so glad I did. The entire experience was incredible. He prepared a beautiful four-course meal that was not only delicious but also thoughtfully curated and perfectly executed. Every dish was a hit--and we're all serious foodies, so that's saying a lot! Chef Chad was professional, accommodating, and easy to work with from start to finish. I can't recommend him enough!

If you're in downtown Kalispell, Sweet Peaks Ice Cream is always a great place to stop by,…read moreespecially on a hot summer day. The ice cream is consistently creamy and delicious, and the flavors are unique and refreshing. My personal favorites are the huckleberry and espresso- a perfect combo of fruity and rich! The best part? You can get a split flavor, so you don't have to choose just one! The staff here are always super welcoming and friendly, making the experience even better. The ambience is cozy and laid-back, with both indoor and outdoor seating available, which is perfect for enjoying your ice cream while soaking in the sunshine. If you're in the area, don't miss out on this gem. It's a great spot to treat yourself to a scoop (or two) of some seriously good ice cream.

We are big fans of Sweet Peaks!…read more But when we came here after dinner at Bias Brewing, we were a bit unlucky. They were out of huckleberry sauce and huckleberry ice cream, and had very few flavors compared with our visit to their Whitefish location. The ice cream we did get was still great but summer in Montana is all about huckleberries, and we were disappointed not to find any here in the night we visited.

So, if you've got a sweet tooth, this is definitely the place to go. The ambience inside is super cozy and warm, with a welcoming atmosphere that makes you want to linger. The moment you walk in, you're hit with the irresistible smell of fresh-baked cookies... it's so inviting that you can't help but grab a cookie or two! We tried the Toffee Caramel Crunch, and it was surprisingly good! It had the perfect balance of rich caramel and crunchy toffee bits that made every bite deliciously satisfying. The service was also really nice and the staff were friendly and helpful, and they even offer free samples on the counter to help you choose the perfect cookie. If you're in Kalispell, definitely stop by and try!!!

We decided to wander around downtown Kalispell on a rainy afternoon this summer and stumbled upon…read morethis new bakery. We of course had to stop in and try some! We opted to buy 6 so we could get 2 free. We got a variety of flavors and took them to the outdoor symphony that evening to have as our dessert. Everyone seemed to really like them. Here is my assessment of the ones I tried: S'mores - gooey, sweet, and seriously ridiculous, but I loved it. Chocolate Chip - classic Sugar Cookie - fantastic frosting Monster Cookie - everyone in the group said this was their favorite, and I'd agree! Will we be back, yes, for sure. So excited to see this new establishment in town!

The team at the bakery was incredibly kind and I will gladly give them business as much as possible. THANK YOU!

Trivia: Ceres is known as a dwarf planet but I think the mythological connection makes more sense…read more Who is Ceres in Roman mythology? The live planter in the back is super cool! Really makes the seating area come to life! Ha! The cooler with ginger beer and kombucha had one small flaw: there were no nutrition facts. The baristas/bakers didn't have much to say on the matter. So I didn't get one. Service was friendly. It was fast. Definitely a good spot to duck into as one works their way along the shops on Main Street.

We were looking for a coffee shop to do some remote work/planning together and stumbled upon Ceres!…read moreIt was recommended by a few of my family members as well, so we thought we'd give it a try! When you walk in, fresh smells waft over you and it makes your tummy rumble (at least it did mine). All their baked goods are very fresh and look delicious! My only qualms are with the coffee and atmosphere. Either our coffees were burnt or we just don't like the roast (I got a caramel latte, she got a chai latte). We still drank them because they weren't absolutely disgusting, they just tasted off and not something you'd want to drink regularly. As for the atmosphere, the space was very cute and well laid out - there are plants and paintings throughout to bring color and joy. However, Carolers came in for about 15 minutes.. with brass instruments! I understand "tis the season" and I love the Christmas spirit, but I also don't want a trombone blasting music 10 feet from my table on a lazy Sunday morning... a little disappointed Ceres allowed them to do this, but I also don't want to be a Scrooge... If you want a good cinnamon roll or breakfast sandwich I think this is the spot! But maybe temper expectations for coffee? Might just be me, but also worth a visit if you want. Happy Holidays!
