Visiting from afar -- very cool location in a historic building, lots of artwork, and very friendly personable service. I ordered the White Firecracker because I love raspberry so much and asked if it could be less sweet, Elisia (sp? So sorry if I spelled it incorrectly!) said they measure with their hearts here and can make it happen. My coffee was perfect. I ordered a raspberry Nutella crepe and it's probably one of the best things I've tasted in a long time. FRESH raspberry purée, bright and beautiful flavor. So good I went back for a second! The Beartooth burrito had chorizo, bacon, eggs, pepper, onions, potatoes. 90% killer/10% filler, not just a bunch of potatoes in a tortilla. Loved this place and it's definitely going in our list of go-to places when we come through Billings. read more

Decent local cafe - just be careful about the day/time... no lunch menu on Sundays and they have a limited amount of breakfast burritos per day. Good flavor and reasonable prices, but variety may be limited depending on kitchen availability. read more

Cute, cozy, nice staff and good breakfast options. I had two crepes with strawberry confit. Very tasty. Had sausage patties as well but wasn't a fan of the seasonings. Coffee was excellent. read more

First time here. Very nice place. Had the ultimate grilled cheese with tomato soup. Both were delicious and excellent. Menu prices are reasonable. Service was fast. Overall good experience. Will definitely eat here again. read more

Bland and horrible food Please don't waste you time and money It's our mistake that we tried it twice even though the first time was just as bad read more

Everything was amazing the service was polite and friendly the establishment was very clean and it did not take long to get our meals. Nice local spot read more

We chose to have a late lunch at McCormick's today. Since we arrived after the luncheon crowd had left, we 3 were the only guests in the place. Interestingly enough, in order "to cool down the ovens," the large kitchen fan was running. Too bad because we could have used the heat - the place was cold. Unfortunately, this fan was so loud that we literally couldn't hear one another. Fact. Never before have I experienced anything like that NOISE in a restaurant. Anyway, as we had been late in arriving and because the place closes at 2:00, our orders had been hastily placed. Had that not been the case, due to the racket and the cold, we would have left. The waitress did suggest that we move to a far-end table in the back room where we could carry on our business meeting with less noise interference from the fan. It helped. But on to the food! The chicken salad that was served to one of us looked tasty enough, except that it was served to a vegetarian who had made that little fact known when she ordered. My turkey club was to come with chips; I was offered nacho cheese Dorito strips in lieu of the chips they were out of. No, thank you. Somehow the pairing of my sandwich with nacho cheese strips didn't fit. Too bad for me. The soup/sandwich combo which our 3rd person ordered was ok. The soup could have been hot, but "warm" worked. In the end, I was sorry to have had such a ho-hum luncheon experience at an establishment which at one time boasted great food, wonderful presentation and courteous service - all lacking today. If the service improves, I'm hoping McCormick's will still be able to serve, at least, an excellent breakfast. Hope springs eternal. read more

In full disclosure, we did not eat the food here. But experiences aren't just about the food. This is based on atmosphere. We were hungry and wanted to check out McCormick's. When we walked in we first noticed the TVs. We find TVs to be annoying in general but we get it when we see them in bars, pubs, and sports themed restaurants. The TV here was playing Newsmax. Based on the review stating they didn't wear masks during Covid and another review stating they were mocked for ordering their food without the meat, this is a hard pass for us. read more

I love McCormick. It has a good atmosphere, the food is amazing, they play the Beatles, and the staff is super nice! My only issue is the wait time was pretty long, but I came with lots of people so that's to be expected. read more

Went to breakfast with 2 girlfriends. We ordered at same time. You would hope they'd bring the meals around same time. One friend got her meal, 15 minutes later we got another meal, which was not what was ordered. They remade order and got 10 mins later. The 3rd girl NEVER got her meal. I said to waitress when I got my correct order where was the other meal we ordered 25 mins ago for my other friend. 20 mins more and I again go to ask about my friends order. I shared my breakfast with her. Not once did they apologize for forgetting her order. I, Lacee Perry, finally went up and said forget her breakfast. Give her refund, which they did after 4 times of asking where her food was. I've frequented McCormicks cafe since it's conception and have never experienced this. No apologies what so ever. So pissed!!! read more

Breakfast sandwich was amazing. Definitely worth a share... Portions were very large. So good.

Excellent food. Friendly staff. Service is not the fastest but it's a quite relaxing atmosphere to wait for your food to come out. read more

ZA great place to meet for coffee, breakfast or lunch. City Brew's "Dancing Goats" coffee is its specialty blend. I stick with the basics, i.e. bacon, eggs and toast for either meal and its always good. McCormick supports local artists as a member of ArtWalk and displays from area artists. Not big on ambience and service can be spotty, but I just roll with it. read more

The service was fast. Went there for breakfast with a friend having a birthday. The Eggs Benny was just ok. Nothing special

Overpriced and mediocre. It got the job done but the pricing left a lot to be desired. $15 eggs benedict had a strange citrus flavor. Roasted potatoes were cooked fairly well, needed more crisp but the Parmesan topping was a nice touch. $7 mimosas made with cheap champagne for two swallows of liquid made me sad. read more

I've been here a many times over the years, but the food quality has really taken a dive lately. It's a nice location and it'd be great if it was a nice restaurant. I went in November and was pretty disappointed with the food went back in December and it was even worse. Mostly I'm leaving this review because no one working was wearing a mask. read more

The food here is great, but as others have said, I really could do without the Newsmax disinformation right in my face as I order. The sandwiches at Great Harvest are excellent, too, without the nauseating propaganda confronting you as you try to enjoy your BLT. read more

This place looked good on Yelp. I really like the decor and ambiance but the food was mediocre at best. The hollandaise sauce on the eggs Benedict was not lemony. The fried potatoes were awful with some kind of mystery powder sprinkled on the. As you can see in the picture the cheese on the Toucan breakfast sandwich was burnt on the edges. I'd try this place again as it appears the breakfast burrito is the hot item. read more

Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, even when I asked a bunch of questions about ingredients for my autoimmune disease. Great burrito - ample size and good ratio of fixings. My son Isaac had "everything " crepes - he said very flavorful. I had the Toucan on gluten free bread - good flavor, next time I would add spinach just for extra veggies. French toast was excellent also. read more

The last two times that I went there, there was a hair (literally a foot long) in my food. They make you pay before you get the food and once you get your food not a single worker checks on you. Not to mention their water tastes like it was out of a ditch. read more

First time here and we really enjoyed it! Friendly service, charming atmosphere and great food! Glad we found it!

Went in for breakfast and was disappointed in the service and food. Ordered a crepe and it had no filling with limited sauce on it and it was very expensive. My mom order scrambled eggs and she had to order toast separately for 3.50 and it took long time to get it. We asked about the toast and the waitress was very rude. We won't be going back. read more

My family and I were traveling from western Montana back to MN. We stopped at so many lovely places, and unfortunately McCormicks Cafe was not one of them. We ordered 2 breakfast burritos without meat for our vegetarian group members, 2 breakfast sandwiches with meat for the meat eaters and 2 pancakes for the kids on board. As we waited for our order we heard other cashier making fun of our order to another server for us asking for some items without meat, perhaps this middle aged women is not aware that some people do not consume meat so our group members have different diet needs and therefore would order different food. On our way out of town and eating the food, our vegetarian members found that while they had taken out the sausage for the breakfast burritos there was still bacon in the burritos and would not be able to eat them. We were pretty disappointed, since we were already out of town and on our way home and did not have the ability to turn around and come back to notify the cafe of the mistake. The cafe had seemed like a nice place to stop so we ate all pretty disappointed with the customer service and the food mistakes especially as it was not a very busy time of day when we ordered. We would not be stopping there again if we were ever in town. The food was reported as mediocre at best even for those who were able to eat it. read more

McCormick Cafe - Breakfast burrito - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Billings, Montana

McCormick's is how breakfast should be...mellow, comforting, and delicious. I was playing tourist that day and figured I should check out some of the mom and pop shops in town. McCormick's was close to my hotel and I walked there, thus building up the appetite. I started out with fresh squeezed O.J and ordered the Toucan (eggs, tomatoes, onions, and mushrooms over a slice of white bread smeared with green onion cream cheese AND THEN topped with jack cheese). I was in breakfast coma heaven and did not need to eat the rest of the day. Tasty and a must eat for everyone, whether you are a tourist or a local. read more

The Employees don't wear masks. To soon for that. Guess that's why I was the only customer in the place.

Due to road closures in Wyoming, found ourselves driving across Montana and pulled into town to find some lunch. Popped into this place and was blown away by the friendly service, excellent food, and comfortable ambience. I will definitely be back. Free wi-fi and a couple of internet terminals as well. read more

McCormick Cafe - Loaded omelet! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Billings, Montana

Cold coffee, visible food remnants under tables, visible dirt on tables. Workers sitting around, not doing anything. Cashier didn't know what was on an egg sandwich. She said it should say on menu board. Pointed out there was nothing on menu board except Egg Sandwich. This is probably the worst breakfast place I have ever visited. I wish 0 stars was an option. read more

This place is one of my top three favorite places here in Billings. I've had the French Toast which was off the chain. Couldnt decide if it was breakfast or dessert. I've also had brat that was wrapped in a herb bread and it was okay. Ive seen the omlets and can tell you that is what I'm trying next. I havent had lunch here yet so I'll get back to you on that. McCormick is coffee shop style with the size and quality of a good resturaunt. I also have morning meetings here because there is so much space and serve yourself coffee. The coffee is also really good! Thank you McCormick for being the go to breakfast/coffee spot! read more

Good for a quick breakfast; the staff was friendly and the coffee was good. There is a private parking lot making it easy to access in downtown. The restrooms could use a good cleaning. read more

Well, at least the toast was good. Coffee was burnt and cold. I think the omelet was made in the microwave. Unevenly cooked and flavorless. read more

I rarely eat downtown but was down for a dr appt and wanted to take my daughter out for lunch. Have heard over the years that the McCormick is really good. Ehh. We both got a wrap and maybe wraps just aren't their thing, not really flavorful. It has only been a few hours and I've already forgotten what I ordered. Dimly remember avocado and watery lettuce. The fries I paid extra for were yummy, probably came out to 10cents a fry. Not really worth the money. The person behind the counter who took our order was nice and efficient. Then she left and some other woman took over who's goal in life was to watch the cook make meals, watch tv or stand outside smoking. I got the feeling she was an owner or maybe a friend of the owner for the lack of caring about her job. We have decided that maybe we'll try a breakfast item if we go again. Is a nice atmosphere and loads of tables to sit at. read more

Went here because our first choice, Legacy Coffee, wasn't open. We were tired from hours on the road and my husband likes good espresso. So we go in and ask the woman at the counter if she knows how to make a macchiato? Yes, she answers. So we order breakfast and coffee and we have to pay up front. Well, she brings a big-ass cup filled with milk. Nope, that's not how you make it. So she tries again. My husband says, two shots espresso, and just a thin film of foam on the top. She brings out almost exactly what she brought the first time. He won't drink it. So I ask for a refund and she gives it to me grudgingly. To add insult to injury, we both got covid five days after being there. Haven't ever had covid since the pandemic started, in 2 years. So we got bad coffee, bad food, and likely got covid. Horrible experience all around. Zero stars for McCormick Cafe. read more

The staff was super friendly, and the food was decent. One guy had mentioned how they just made it through a rush, so I would like to give it another try sometime. The burger was just way over cooked, I get food safety, but it was past that. And my monte cristo was delicious, but when I squeezed it it just oozed with grease. Could he just how they serve them, i think I'll just try something else on my next visit. read more

McCormick Cafe - Yummy nutella crepes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Billings, Montana

Unfortunately, this was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in awhile. I came in with my wife and baby, ordered a burger and a salad, and sat down. We waited patiently for 30 minutes. Impatiently for 15 more minutes. They weren't even particularly busy. It was a Tuesday afternoon after the peak lunch hour. My burger and bacon apparently had been left on the griddle for the entire 45 minutes - it was unrecognizable black char by the time it got to our table. The fries apparently had some sort of accident with a pepper shaker as they were black with the excessive or perhaps overzealous pepper shaking. My wife's salad was gross at best. Wilted spinach, room temperature or warmed dressing. It was very salty, which is not very good for a fruit salad. I work at the hospital, so I didn't have the luxury of sending the food back and waiting another 45 minutes for another meal. I won't be coming back here, and I will tell my friends and family to do the same. read more

I am so sorry to say that I did not enjoy my experience at McCormick Cafe. After having bookmarked it for 3 months as a "must go to" place, my husband and daughter went without me about a month ago. They had an omelet, and really enjoyed it. Then my husband and I went about a week ago. The service was really awkward, and not in a good way (is there a good way?). We ordered an omelet and a spinach and strawberry salad. As usual, we asked for no cheese on the omelet. I would feel bad that we do this everywhere we go, I mean, as a foodie, it hurts me a bit to order anything that is altered from the way the chef intends it to be, but we tip well, so I feel better. The fact of the matter is, we do eat cheese on occasion, but only at restaurants we fully trust to make something so amazing that we are willing to have a stomach ache for a day and a half afterwards. We weren't to that point yet with McCormick Cafe, so no cheese on our omelet, please. The omelet wasn't really great; it was actually not even hot, and I had a terrible stomach ache the next day from the huge amount of cheese that was on it (and in it). I know, I should have sent it back. We would have, but we didn't really like asking our server for anything up until then, and it took a while to get our order out the first time. A girl's got to go to work, so we just didn't have the time to wait again. I think the salad dressing was a kind of balsamic reduction at one point, but it was SUPER sweet; the salad itself was good. We visited during lunch, so I had a hot tea. The staff wasn't sure if any of the loose leaf tea options were caffein free; in fact, they told me the only caffein free option was chamomile. I wasn't really into feeling sleepy after lunch, so I asked what other options they had. Spearmint was one of them, so I asked, "Your spearmint tea has caffeine?" They weren't sure, so I took a a risk and tried it. Again, it was loose leaf, and, unfortunately their steeping spoons didn't hold all of the leaves back, so I had a lot of the tea in the bottom of my cup, which isn't a big deal to most people, but worth noting. So, overall, it wasn't horrible. But, it wasn't great. It wasn't fun, and as much as I feel awful for saying it, I really didn't like the experience as a whole. Lots of people love McCormick Cafe, though. If I wanted cheese on my omelet and love sticky, sweet salad, I probably would have liked the place a lot more. I'm so sorry I didn't. Maybe my tips can simply help when you try it out for yourself. read more

Popped into McCormick Cafe on a recent visit to family in Montana. Honestly, just going to say it up front: I was not a fan. There are quite a few places in Billings to eat that are substantially better and I don't see any need to come back here. First, the menu is on the wall to your right after you walk through the door. It is above tables, so those people get to feel like you're staring at them while you decide what you would like to eat. Meanwhile, there is no organization to ordering. It is just a crowd of people staring at the menu and attempting to order at a counter. Perhaps a stanchion could do the trick? Next, when ordering, several menu items were "unavailable" or "out." Make enough food to serve your menu or don't have a permanent menu. They also wouldn't serve their lunch and breakfast menus at the same time. Since it was still 15 minutes til they started the lunch menu, I was stuck on the breakfast menu. The food was ok. I ordered the bratwurst wrap with potatoes. It wasn't the worst thing I've ever eaten, but wasn't the best either. It was like a giant "pig-in-a-blanket." The brat in the middle was tasty, but it had wayyyyy too much breading on it and the breading was too hard. Still acceptable, though. Now, on to the potatoes. The potatoes themselves were good and cooked properly, but they were covered, and I mean covered, with parmesan cheese. I love parmesan, but this was awful. I wound up having to shake off my potatoes. Honestly, this place doesn't deserve 2 stars, but wasn't bad enough to deserve a 1. This is a solid 1.5. Meh. read more

I came into McCormick's as a classic weary traveler (just after sleeping off a 12 hour trip from SLC, during a cross-country road trip). I was happy to find a friendly cafe, filled with genuine people and seriously good food. I enjoyed a very well-made cheese topped veggie omelet (one of the few that I've ever had that was without a massive grease puddle -- way to go!) and a mug of loose-leaf tea. Perfect for breakfast. Also has some Internet access. Also, replying to the review below, I received breakfast around 10:30 without a problem -- perhaps the policies have changed? read more
