It's a kitschy "School booster" type of place where you might bump into the Archies. Sort of Pop's Chocklit shop in Riverdale kind of vibe. We went on a nice later afternoon drive towards the Tetons from Cutbank, but decided it was too far to get back in daylight and we wanted some wind off the water ions. We already took the pooch for a visit to the doggie park in Cutbank so we wandered over to Valier and Lake Frances the back way across the prairie. It was a nice drive and we passed a historic Merriweather landmark before we got to town. There was a campground and we watched a murmuration of geese flying over the lake. I was getting hungry and as usual my big nose found food. At first glance it looked closed but I could barely see the OPEN sign glowing through the tinted window and the parking lot was empty. We went in (around 5:00PM) and only 1 other person was there. "Did we miss the dinner crowd?" I asked 1/2 jokingly and the young guy behind the counter said they usually show up around 6 so they don't waste the daylight. We settled in at a table for 10 and ordered the mushroom Swiss burger. $11 and fries or baked potato was the side option. We went for potatoes. Nicely done and decent sized. The burgers were filling. The meat and cheese with cooked onions was good. The buns were just average but better than the Cutbank McDonald's looked. (We considered a Big Arch a couple hours before this) The place was clean, but I didn't check the plumbing and I didn't ask about other stuff. I had come to the town for a haircut a month ago and had noted the lake. (Recreational Water is scarce in Montana) Next time we'll have to check out the dam in Moscow. I hear there's boat rentals.

I came to Choteau, MT from Portland, OR & the weather was cold/icy (January 2019). When I finally got to the Airbnb cabin, the power was out & there was no heat. Being that I was in such a pinch & my cell reception wasn't great, my family started searching for alternatives in the area & that accepted dogs. Deanna was one of the only places that accepted pets and I couldn't have been more pleased to have a warm house & gracious hostess that was closeby. Deanna could not be more hospitable & accepting of visitors. We arrived around 6:30pm & she offered us food and was very empathetic to the stressful day we had had. Her website address is actually: www.deannasbunkandabiscuit.com & she offers 3 rooms in her home. If you are coming to Choteau, Deanna knows a lot about the area & I would highly recommend her house for a place to lay your head. My dogs & I explored the area & had a nice stay.

My final thoughts are to make sure the handle held device has closed out (I don't know what that even means), get a receipt, or pay cash. The ordeal was unnecessary if I would have known all this beforehand. We so enjoy their pizzas and will continue to order from them. I called in and ordered a $20 pepperoni pizza. When I went to pay for it, I selected No Tip. Once I got home, I received a message from my bank saying I was charged $24.40. I called them and they fumbled with words trying to convince me I did it. Why on earth would I tip 22% for someone to literally turn around and hand me a pizza to go. In the end, they said there wasn't anything they could do. Seems like perhaps a common scheme against their customers.

Lastly, the main event and the reason we visited this place was because of the Grizzly. This muffin shaped pastry filed with huckleberry and cream cheese was so awesome! It lived up to its hype. Man! I wish this place wasn't so far from everything. We got one more night here and we are definitely eating here tomorrow morning (September 12, 2025).
