    the entrance to the restaurant
    Ann H.

    Comfortable, laid back, but not cozy. Three forks cafe is a better than average small town diner that caters to locals and tourists. It's easy to tell the difference and the employees act accordingly. With locals regaling each other about the weather, their livestock and hunting expeditions, day-off antics, there's no shortage of entertainment, the kind that makes you put down your phone and enjoy. The food is good in a diner sort of way, filling and served quickly. Nothing strays too far from expectations, except, perhaps for the "entertainment" provided by the banter between the locals and the staff. If listening to that isn't for you, spend some time looking at the decor. It's a history lesson: sometimes tongue-in-cheek and often times a mini museum of your grandparent's treasures. Three Forks cafe is more of a been-there done-that spot for tourists. But, don't discount that feeding tourists seems a side gig for this community gathering location for the locals. Enjoy it for what it is.

    Good food, great service, and cozy restaurant First off I want to start by saying I had a really good waitress she was friendly and had great customer service skills. You can tell she was an expert waitress by the way she spoke with some of the other customers in the restaurant. The restaurant had a lot of old timers sitting down at tables that seemed like regulars that come in a lot and the waitress knew their names and what they already wanted to order which I find to be a great sign of a good waitress. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger and fries which I really enjoyed. For dessert I had apple pie and a scoop of ice cream which I also enjoyed. It was my first time coming to this restaurant and the next time I am in the area I can see myself definitely coming back.

    The food and service here were both good. Not amazing, but good enough for us to come back. It's a cute, tiny little hole-in-the-wall type of place that is worth a visit.

    Wonderful food! Great friendly service. Local family owned. Erin was our server and her Mom owns the place. The portions were large and tasted amazing. We had ham steak breakfast and sausage plate breakfast. Both were yummy! Comfortable and friendly atmosphere.

    Breakfast Burrito with sausage.

    Food was delicious. The breakfast burrito with sausage was huge and tasty. Clean and friendly. My husband had the Denver omelette and he enjoyed it as well. Three Forks is a nice little town.

    Our party of 4 ate here for our first meal in Montana. The place is much bigger inside than how it…read morelooked outside. When we came in at around 4pm, there seemed to be plenty of tables available but after an hour, the place quickly filled up. Vibes/Service: Parking lot in the back and it seemed there was some street parking available as well. Many, many tables available with bar seating as well. It can certainly fit a larger group. Great service from our server. Checked on us often and filled up our waters. Food: Because it was our first meal here, we wanted to try out their staple dishes. -Bison Potstickers ($16): 5 pieces topped with mango and garlic chili sauce and served with some coleslaw. Rich and filling, paired well with the sauce. Would order this again! -Bison Patty Melt ($22): it was my first time eating Bison, the waiter suggested medium rare. It looked more red than I usually like but it actually was juicy and tasty-- I guess this is the difference between a regular beef patty. I'd also order this again. -Served with pepper parmesan fries which was so uniquely food. Fries were fresh. -Huckleberry Cream Ale ($8/pint) paired well with my meal.

    I've been to Ale Works a few times before and always had great food and service, so I was excited…read moreto bring a friend visiting from out of town. Unfortunately, this visit was the complete opposite of what I expected. We were seated quickly on a Monday evening, and our server let us know she was new, which we completely understood since we both work in the service industry. Ordering was simple--my friend mentioned an apple allergy, and we each made straightforward requests. There was a slightly odd moment where the server said she couldn't ring in my friend's order a certain way because the kitchen would "make fun of her," but we brushed it off. Things really went downhill when the food arrived. Both meals were completely wrong. When the food was dropped off (by someone other than our server), there was a snarky comment referencing the apple allergy, which was uncomfortable. We sent the food back, expecting a quick fix--but it came out wrong again. And then a third time. At that point, we were honestly shocked. I've never had an order come out incorrectly three times in a row. Eventually, a manager brought the food out correctly, but there was no real apology for the repeated mistakes. Our server explained it was the kitchen's fault, but it was frustrating that no one double-checked the orders before bringing them out each time. The whole experience ended up taking over two hours, which felt excessive given how simple the order was. We also felt that, given the circumstances, some kind of comp or acknowledgment would have been appropriate, but nothing was offered. Overall, it was a really disappointing and honestly embarrassing experience--especially after talking the place up so much beforehand.
