You might find yourself lingering over layered sandwiches packed with fresh ingredients, or a bowl of soup that hints at home-cooked patience.

Families find a natural fit here, with options that satisfy younger appetites alongside more adventurous tastes, making it a genuine spot for all ages to gather and enjoy.

My husband and I came to Choteau today for the Threshing Bee and stopped at the Log Cabin for lunch as it looked like the only place opened. They were slammed and we got the only table open. Apparently two bus loads with kids had called in 100 to go orders. Staff were upfront and told us we'd have an hour wait, and we did. The atmosphere was pleasant, the staff were amazing and the food was well worth the wait. Way to go wait staff for maintaining composure under a busy and stressful situation. We will be back...Hopefully when you aren't soooo busy!

I came across Log Cabin Family Restaurant in a town that was on the way between Bozeman and Glacier National Park. It quickly became clear to me what a gem this restaurant is. The food was phenomenal. For an appetizer, I was served the best chicken wings I had ever had in my life! For my entree, I decided on a bison burger. It was really, really nice! By default, their burgers are done well done. Even though I like mine pink, it was still a REALLY DELICIOUS burger. The service was above and beyond: attentive, personalized and friendly. Th vibe is really nice too! When I’m in Montana next time, I’ll be sure to visit again!

Overall a nice little place to stop in for a late lunch:early dinner. The food was wonderful, especially the strawberry rhubarb pie. The fish and chips were also quite good and the prices were fair. My only real complaint was it was really hot in there, when we left to pay the thermostat on the wall said 80 degrees.

The food was great for all of us. Kid had mini dogs and fries, girlfriend had ahi salad and it looked delicious, she scarfed it down, and I had the Greek chicken sandwich (which you can get as a salad instead if you want). The staff were friendly and the food fast for fresh made especially. Make sure you ask for the home fries! I liked them better than the normal shoestrings. If you’re passing through or going to the old trail museum, it’s the perfect stop whether for rest, a meal or desserts.

Stopped by for a lunch while driving through and so glad I choose this spot! I got their Friday special; pure battered fish, shrimp, fries, and chowder. Everything was fresh and very tasty. The small option was quite large and I took most of it home. The chowder was it’s not always on the menu but should be! Only thing I didn’t enjoy was the coleslaw, tasted a little off. Besides that everything else was fresh and 10/10 They have a huge variety of in-house made pies, I didn’t get to try any as I was quite full, but I’d love to return and give some a try one day. Would recommend for anyone looking for a casual spot with delicious food and good atmosphere
