One Of The Oldest Restaurants In Montana, Gamer’s Cafe, Is More Popular Than Ever

Once upon a time, in Butte, Montana in 1905, a little cafe was born. That little cafe grew up to be a big-time eatery in town, serving miners, locals, and tourists alike. And now, over a century later, Butte’s Gamer’s Cafe is one of the longest-running businesses in the Treasure State. And luckily, it’s as popular as ever.

Gamer's Cafe starts each morning serving a hearty, stick-to-your-ribs breakfast selection.

The omelets and griddle cakes are second to none, and everything is made from scratch.
If you come in a little later in the day, we highly recommend treating yourself to a traditional Cornish Pasty.

Butte is well-known for its pasty selection, and it just happens to be the specialty here.
Of course, you can never go wrong with classic comforts like Polish mac & cheese or a pork chop sandwich.
