Reviews for Old Schoolhouse Cafe in Dillon, MT
Really cute cafe with a variety of baked goods and breakfast pastries. This little cafe is well situated in a small schoolhouse... and features lots of baked goods and custom italian drinks. A lot of pies and bread are on display, and the dining room feelslike a school house, with the menu on a large chalkboard. Only downside is they are closed Monday thru Wed, and not open fordinner. But if you are traveling through Thurs thru Sunday in the morning, this cafe is worth the stop (and photo op). Read more
A southern Montana I-15 must stop. Discovered this gem on a list of the 15 Montana restaurants to visit before you die and it... did not disappoint. What a fun way to experience a 1900?s one room school house. On top of that - the food was amazing. Sourdough beer batter chicken strips are hand-breaded and the best my husband has ever had. Sour dough bread was delicious. Applecobbler was out of this world. Friendly small town staff! Read more
Best steak ever. Cooked to perfection, the right cut, taste! It was worth not stopping anywhere else and waiting to reach The... Old Schoolhouse. The cobbler is amazing! Also the ambiance, service, everything. Read more
I travel a lot for work driving 7-10 hours to get to a location (not a trucker) when I stopped for gas I didn't expect to fall... in love with this quiet little town. The cafe welcomed me even though I only had three bucks. I had some coffee with the cowboywho made it his business to have some with me; you just dont get that anywhere else. One free donut ???? later I felt like I wasbeing spoiled. I will be back and I suggest everyone go. Read more
Great friendly service. We ordered the burger and grilled ham and cheese? cooked perfect with great flavor. The fries are... telephone pole size. Located in a historic school house. Read more
We?ve had the pleasure of stopping at this cafe twice now on vacations out West. Our first time, about 2, maybe 3 years ago now,... the restaurant was under different ownership. While the restaurant was cute, it was quite dirty and run down. The food however,was outstanding. Our second time there just a couple weeks ago, it was a completely different place and all the same, in theabsolute best ways possible! It?s been modernized and brought up to the times but not obnoxiously so. It?s still the same, butoffers so many cozy nooks and crannies. The new owners are so sweet and nice, we spent about 30 minutes chatting with them. Weleft with some craft soda, peach cobbler, and sourdough starter. Everything was delicious! We enjoyed our first sourdoughwaffles for breakfast this morning. They were perfect. This is a hidden gem and I hope the owners see abundant success. They?reputting a lot of work in during turbulent times when it?s very hard to be a business owner and do it well. You?d be a fool notto support them! Read more
If you're passing the Montana-Idaho border on I-15 this is a must stop! It's just a few miles north of the border in Dell, MT.... We had their roast beef and it was delicious, and with very generous portions! A local couple have recently taken over what usedto be the "Calf-A" and have renovated the old schoolhouse and updated the menu. But they still have awesome deep-dish home-madepies and delicious sourdough bread. (You can even buy the sourdough starter.) There's an EV charging station nearby so you cancharge up your car and your taste buds at the same time. Read more
You must visit this hidden gem. If you are anywhere close to Dillon, Montana you have to stop in. We were lucky to have... discovered this family owned cafe on our recent road trip. The food was fresh, made from scratch and delicious. The chickenstrips were the best my husband has ever had!! I had the grilled ham and cheese sandwich on homemade sourdough with hand cutsteak fries. It was also amazing. And we couldn't leave without some of their homemade strawberry rhubarb cobbler and a jar ofthe schoolhouse spice they use to season their chicken strips and burgers. The customer service was warm and inviting. Ifthat's not enough, we enjoyed our meal in a charming old schoolhouse. Read more
