“ Fabulous staff. My first time here and I felt at home. Ordered breakfast and coffee and was very pleased. The atmosphere is quaint and eclectic, with giggles from the kitchen setting the mood. Worth the stop if you're passing by. I'll be back again soon. ”
“ We had a wonderful experience, I had a vanilla iced latte and my husband had a decaf coffee. Mine was delicious and my husband was pleasantly surprised saying his decaf was really good (he doesn't normally get good decaf at the majority of the coffee shops). Then we ordered breakfast and I can truly say we each had terrific meals. I had their breakfast omelette and he had eggs, bacon and toast...I couldn't finish all of mine, I needed his help. The homemade bread was a real treat. Everything was superb...service, coffee and food. Thank you to everyone working, it was a pleasant experience and I would recommend stopping if you have the opportunity! ”
“ Head to pesto, turkey sandwich, special on herb bread, and it was outstanding. Excellent soup. Excellent service. Great place to sit out in the patio in the shade and enjoy some good food. ”
“ Small little bakery and sandwich shop. Their forte seems to be their sandwiches on their homemade bread. Conveniently located next to a coffee shop with a passage way between them, so you can get your food from Stella's and whatever coffee you want next door. (They roast their own beans and the mocha we got was delicious. ) A great place to stop on the way between Kalispell and Missoula or other points in between. ”
“ I visited here on a 6 month long road trip and 3 years later I still think about the food here. The sandwiches, the soup... everything is perfection. My girlfriend and I tried to eat at multiple places to explore, but nothing compares. I would sell my soul for another pumpernickel sandy and some chicken noodle soup. Deliver cross country please! ”
“ If you want delicious home cooked food, personal staff, and a friendly atmosphere, stop here! Don't let the road construction scare you away. It's worth the stop 100x over! Family friendly; games and cards to play with. You can even call in for your order. ”
“ Why are the best places in the strangest places? The first thing I heard walking in was someone saying how good the breakfast sandwich was to the owner. I can't think of a better one I've ever had. It's like they read my mind when deciding how to make it. They are known for their soup for a very good reason. I LOVE SOUP. I eat it for breakfast and on a hot summer day....I love soup. I don't know how but their chicken noodle is better than homemade. Maybe they pray or chant over it but whatever it is they do, they do it better than mom does. I can't wait to come back and I haven't even left yet! Damn it! I wish I was still hungry!! Thank you Stella, Mom, Jesus, Buddah, Universe (whoever is responsible). ”
“ I read about Stella's before planning my Montana roadtrip and am so happy that it lived up to expectations. Everything about Stella's was fantastic. I ordered the Mollman Pass with the soup of the day (tomato basil) and it was a big portion and super tasty. My dad's sandwich was equally as great - the Timberlane. We then got dessert for the rest of our ride. I opted for the banana bar with cream cheese frosting and he got two scoops of their homemade vanilla ice cream. I wish I got a picture of how big those two scoops were... By my count maybe 10 small scoops?! It was wild. I probably could have skipped the banana bar, but all in all would definitely return again! ”
