10. Red Poppy GF Bakery

From breads and rolls, over pizza crust, muffins, scones, to cakes, Red Poppy does it all, and does it extremely well. Breads are most but not heavy, they don't crumble like most GF breads do, and they also freeze well. Not to even mention how tasty they are! Seasonal Pumpkin Bread is a must taste, as are the carrot cake muffins. If you are looking for a good sandwich bread, both white and multi-grain are great options. They are good both fresh and toasted, and did I mention they freeze well?

We order 2 sandwiches, both were fresh and delicious. We didn't order soup but the people next to us did and were really enjoying it. The decor was farm style felt right at home. My only problem was seating. The large table was to big, we didn't mind sharing the space and visited with nice people. It was hard to move around with a line of people ordering and eating. The seating difficulty was worth it, the food was great. Thanks.Thank you for your kind words and input. Glad you enjoyed the food. We hope to see you again.

Central Ave Bakery and Deli

Reviewed By bryonia2015

The Bakery was fairly full with a lunch time crowd however there is little waiting as you can select from the displays or ask the servers to make you a sandwich - we did both, then backed up for some sweet treats to go. Lovely young woman made our sandwiches and coffee, reasonably priced, seating inside, quality baked goods. We perched on stools by the window and mu nched as we watched the world go by. This street in Whitefish is colourful! Perfection. Beats sitting in a stuffy restaurant for lunch.

Swift Creek Cafe

Upon visiting Swift Creek Cafe, you will realize it’s much more than just food. It is a place of character, art, family history and community. The Moreno Halphen family has a strong tradition in food and coffee, which spans over 80 years. Guillermo Moreno

Great little cafe for breakfast. The owner & staff are super friendly. The service was excellent. We had the famous homemade corned beef hash which came with one egg over easy & thin cut pan fried potatoes. The hash was prepared different than the usual way but was the best quality & flavor of corned beef we have eaten. The potatoes were cooked perfectly crispy. We also had the Huevos Rancheros. Eggs over easy on a tortilla topped with a flavorful black bean sauce. Delicious. One of the best we have eaten.

Great breakfast place and portions were insane! Our group had the French toast, the chubby hippie, western omelette and classic breakfast. We left happy and full. Only disappointment was that we didn’t have room for a piece of homemade pie....next time!

Buffalo Cafe & Nightly Grill

Reviewed By bluejay377

We chose this place based upon other reviews. We went here for breakfast. Had no issue finding on street parking. Walked in and were seated immediately. Place is definitely a favorite of the locals so we had high expectations.We ordered the Kansas City Buffalo Pie breakfast. Sounded too good to pass up. It comes with Kansas City bacon and two poached eggs sitting on a bed of hash browns. All for $11. For the sake of presentation, the dish looked awesome, but our excitement ended when we started to eat it. The bacon was amazing. Absolutely loved it. The hash browns lacked salt. Absolutely zero seasoning. The poached eggs were ok, not great. Overall, what could have been a really good breakfast just felt average at best.Our server was definitely busy with tables, but she still did an adequate job. We didn't feel overly welcomed. It was all business. Perhaps we caught them on a bad day, late in the season so we would probably go back again to give them another shot.

Zucca Marketplace Bistro

Reviewed By CATTSAR

Went here with a friend for lunch and was very impressed. The first thing was the friendly service and greeting. The menu is impressive and it is obvious the freshest ingredients are used. My choice was the grilled veggie wrap with a small salad. The room is cozy with tables and high tops. You order at the counter and your selection is brought to your table shortly after. This is a great go to in downtown Whitefish for good food fast.
