Montana has an abundance of railroad towns, and Livingston is no exception. Founded in the early 1800s by the Northern Pacific Railway as a midway point between Minneapolis and Seattle, it was the railway that put this little city on the map. And while the railroad is no longer our primary means of transportation, you’ll still find plenty of nods to its history when you visit Livingston. There’s even a train-themed restaurant called the Northern Pacific Beanery, and it’s delightful.

Northern Pacific Beanery is located on Park Street in Livingston's historic downtown area.

The eatery is part of the Livingston Depot Center, so the theme is as authentic as it gets.
When you dine here, you'll often hear the sounds of the trains passing by.

This building has been around since the early 1900s, and the restaurant has been around almost as long.
Inside, the space is cozy, comfortable, and welcoming.

As nice as modern restaurant spaces are, there's something special about the old-fashioned aesthetic. You'll feel like you're in a train's dining car as you prepare to order your meal.
