Okay, I had a vague memory the food here was only so-so, but it had been awhile and I thought I would try things out again. Rather a disappointing breakfast experience, turns out. The Potatoes O’Brien hash browns were a gooey starchy glob, neither lightly cooked and toothsome (which can be good) nor well-cooked and crispy (which can also be…

The Search for the Best Breakfast in Great Falls: Tracy’s revisited
Tracy’s is back! Yay! That’s right, after being mysteriously closed for a year or so, the longtime GF institution at the corner of Central Ave. and just-a-block-from-the-Civic-Center reopened in mid-2019 under new management. Finally stopped by in Sept. Does not seem like it has as many historic pictures on the walls, and all the cool old table-top jukeboxes are gone,…
The Search for the Best Breakfast in Great Falls: The Celtic Cowboy
Location: Way downtown, 1st Ave South and maybe 2nd Street Food: So far only tried the Irish Breakfast, and it is muy, muy Cost: Not real cheap. About $15 with coffee Value: For the price, you do get your money’s worth Atmosphere: Always kind of quiet and lonely. Just a few stragglers from the Hotel Arvon. But that is preferable…

It was supposed to be a big mix of eggs and hash browns and cheese and whatnot, already pre-smushed…
Breakfast Not in Great Falls but Should Be: Huevos and Machaca

And places for decent authentic Mexican breakfasts? I’m not sure one even exists. So when you travel out of town especially to a southwestern state it’s mandatory to stop in somewhere…
The Search for the Best Breakfast in Great Falls: 5th Street Diner revisited
Tragedy has struck Great Falls. The 5th Street Diner is closing. Apparently the landlord, perhaps hoping to cash in on the current popularity of that 5th Street and Central intersection, decided the space was worth a lot more rent than the Diner proprietors were willing to pay. So the proprietors decided it was time to retire. Thus I, along with…
The Search for the Best Breakfast in Great Falls: Double Barrel Cafe
Location: 15th Street and 9th Ave. So, in the little house that’s been several businesses over the years. The Double Barrel is both old and new, being new at this location, but old as a successor to the old Double Barrel that was on the West Side for so many years. One of the proprietors here is a relation of…
