Hungry? Missoula has food and beverage choices for any palette. With more than 200 restaurants, bars, breweries, bakeries, and espresso stands, the Garden City offers all the food amenities found in larger cities, but with a local flavor all of Missoula’s own. Yes, you’ll find the franchise eateries here, but you’ll also find local gems that serve up Missoula’s finest.
Cuisine from all over the world can be found here, including Asian, Eastern Indian, Greek, Vietnamese, Italian, Chinese, Mexican and a tasty mix of American fare. Several restaurants offer remarkable vegetarian selections.
Many downtown restaurants purchase fresh fruits and vegetable from the Farmers Market during the summer months. Fresh produce is readily available, much of it coming from local gardens. When in season, local Flathead Valley cherries, Bitterroot apples, Dixon melons, and wild-picked mountain huckleberries are Farmers Market favorites and may find their way to local menus.
Whatever you’re craving, you’ll likely find it in Missoula. When choosing where to dine or grab a cup of joe, ask a local resident for a recommendation or use the listings on this site as a guide. You may also search online if you are looking for an authentic Chinese style restaurant.
