Before booking, I noticed a lot of complaints about noise from the train station that's directly across the street. The motel rooms are organized into three areas so if you want to book here, the rooms furthest from the train noise are #1-21. The rooms closest to the train station that I'm sure have a fair amount of noise (unless you're from NY like me and can deal) are #32-37. 22-31 are somewhere in the middle. Reception was courteous and the staff in the associated restaurant are really great. I'd definitely stay here again but only if I could manage a room in the area I mentioned. Check out Whitefish nearby -- cool town.

The main issue with this place is cleanliness (or lack thereof). Although freshly "cleaned", our table had a layer of black gummy filth built up, and the eating utensils provided were spotted so heavily you could scrape "gunk" off with your fingernail. I did notice that most of the other table tops looked better than ours, but every knife/spoon/fork I saw looked the same. There was also someones hair laminated inside our menu. With issues like these in the "front", it makes me wonder how bad things are in the "back" where they prepare our food. We reluctantly decided to stay and eat. "Acceptable" describes our meals well. We will not return, and would recommend to find another establishment for your meal.

Dinner was a pizza and it was good - nice thin crispy crust with plenty of cheese and toppings. The real reason we ate here though was for the huckleberry pie, which is always fantastic. I was disappointed to see that they have raised their prices and limited the menu choices quite a bit since I was last here maybe 3 years ago. The service varies from year to year, depending on the seasonal employees, and this year's waiters seemed to be less than stellar. Our waiter didn't notice our pizza just sitting (cooling) on the countertop for 10 minutes, warmed up pie that was specifically ordered cold and took more than 15 minutes to get our ticket to us. Your results may vary depending on the day of the week, but don't stop here if you're short on time.

This is the place in West Glacier to get a burger and fries. Big meaty patties cooked juicy and hot. I had the Huckleberry Hound burger. Huckleberry BBQ sauce with havarti and grilled onions. Very good at $11. We didn't try the pie but it looked great. They have home-style fries that they cut in-house. Like the kind mom made.

Great Diner. I had a bison burger & my wife had fish and chips. Both meals were great and the young guys serving were really nice & did a great job. We were surprised to see they also had a full dinner menu with ribs, steaks, etc. & pizza.

Best breakfast in NW Montana. Nicest people you will encounter. I always stop in here when I'm in the area and I'm never disappointed. Do you like your eggs cooked exactly how you like them? Do you like golden, crispy hashbrowns cooked to perfection? Do you like warm, fresh, made from scratch pie? Who doesn't? Thr Highland is the best in the business. Tale note *no bitchy high maintenance whiners.

We ate at the restaurant only. Did not stay in the motel. So this review is only about the restaurant. Food is good and have the right portion. The waiter is polite and EFFICIENT. Fun facts: The huckleberries are being foraged from the wild, not farmed and they can be as expensive as $80/gallon.

Good food at a decent price. Pizza was good sized and delicious. Burgers were great. Fries a little overdone but good. Service was minimal; we cleaned the table when we first got there.

This is a review of both the motel and the restaurant. In a nutshell: the motel is very basic, no frills, and pricey. It was fine for us, as there were no other options near the west entrance of the park for the nights we needed. There just aren't a lot of lodging options in the Glacier area, so as long as you adjust your expectations, it's an adequate place to stay. The train noise from the station across the street is part of the local atmosphere-- bring ear plugs if you think it will bother you. We didn't mind it. The restaurant is really good -- friendly & cheerful service, good beer selection, hearty & tasty food. We ate there two nights in a row and had breakfast on our departure day-- all good. The breakfast croissant was an excellent start to a long day of hiking.

First off, we were booked into this place by a rip-off company called National Park Reservations. They also got a one-star review for their nightmarish business practices. We arrived late and found a super hot room with filthy, broken window blinds, no a/c, no refrigerator, and no ice. You have to get a bag of ice from the gas station next door, but alas, the machine was locked (because it contained very valuable ice?!). The floor was very dirty and hadn't been vacuumed for a long time I would guess. Found two spiders the first night. Their solution to improving an old mattress is to put a foam egg crate on it. Bad back anyone? Not fun to hike with a sore back!! We asked for our money back the next day, but the kid at the desk forgot our room number, so when we got back that night, nothing had been done and no one had cleaned our room. Finally, on the last night, they moved us to a newer room up the hill which was nicer, but the carpet was still filthy, and the train was absolutely just as loud. Oh, and one night a drunk woman walked right into our room while I was dressing and she was looking for Gary. Avoid this place like the plague!!! Needless to say, we didn't try the restaurant.

Maybe our expectations were low after reading all the negative reviews, but we actually found this place to be really great! We stayed 3 nights this August in one of their renovated rooms. Beds and pillows were comfortable, everything was clean and all staff were really friendly! After eating in almost every restaurant in the park, the adjoining restaurant to the motel turned out to be our favorite and great service. We used our room like one would use their tent while camping and spent most of the time in the park. There's not a lot to do otherwise as the satellite TV is not the greatest. We would definitely stay here again!

Where do I begin? I am a well-seasoned traveler and have NEVER experienced such a horrible hotel. I stayed for 7 nights (on business) and attempted to contact the manager of this hotel during my stay, and he NEVER reached out to contact me to acknowledge my 2-page handwritten note and did not address my concerns. He basically ignored me and never contacted me. INEXCUSABLE and extremely unprofessional. For starters, when I checked into my room, it was filthy. Dirty carpet (never vacuumed or cleaned), hair on the sink in the bathroom, very lumpy pillows, no Kleenex or shampoo, extremely dim lighting (could not even see my face to shave in the bathroom), no A.C. or coffee, and a musty FOUL odor that was nauseating. And my room was across the street from the railroad station, so I was awakened by trains every hour during the night. All of this for a whopping $95.00!! MAJOR RIP-OFF!!! In addition, there was no wi-fi and no cell service for my entire stay. The plugs in my room were so ancient that I could not even plug my computer into the wall. When I called the office to ask for a 3-prong adapter, a very rude woman in the office replied, "Get your own 3-prong adapter. We don't have one and do not supply them for our guests." She then actaully HUNG UP IN MY FACE.!! OUTRAGEOUS!!!! I am going to contact the Better Business Bureau to investigate this place, as well as any hotel/motel associations they are affiliated with. I travel on average 100 days per year, in the US and abroad, and have NEVER stayed in a worse place in all my 20 years of traveling. DO NOT EVER STAY IN THIS RAT TRAP!!!!!!!!!!

The room at the motel was small, but completely redone and even had that new-carpet smell. King bed was comfortable, bathroom was roomy and clean, flat screen tv. Nothing to complain about, except no phone and crappy cell reception. But what do you expect when your in the woods, it is after all right outside of Glacier Park. Restaurant is FABULOUS! If I was rating the restaurant alone, it would be 5 stars. We got the pizza which at first seemed a little pricey. But when it came, we saw why. Amazing dough, made daily in house, and HUGE! They don't skimp on toppings or cheese. My husband and I are very critical about pizza, and this is one of the best we have ever tasted. We usually prefer super thin crust, but this is like fluffy french bread, yet still crispy. We only regret that we weren't able to come back for breakfast the next morning.

We ate at the restaurant twice (breakfast and dinner) and shopped at the gift shop. The food was good. Their huckleberry french toast was very good, and their meat loaf and pies were good. We had stayed in Browning MT, which is very run-down little town with no good food options, so this place made our day. Also, Phil and Ron were a great help with questions about a deal on their souvenir t-shirts. It was a very good experience. (We did not stay at the hotel, but we liked the restaurant and gift shop.)

Had dinner there last night. I wouldn't have chosen this place as it is attached to a gas station. It was dirty and our waiter must have been smokin' something illegal - he didn't have a clue what was going on and didn't seem to care. Food was bad....my burger was dry (the waiter didn't ask me how I wanted it cooked but I doubt it would have mattered). My mom's Cobb Salad had no egg and no dressing but it did come with a couple of gnats. Stay far away!

My family and I had a great breakfast here! We have been traveling through several cities and states the past 5 days and this was the best breakfast we've had all week! The coffee is delicious and the service is friendly! We all agreed if we ever get to come back here we are definitely eating here again! Thanks for a great meal!

Does yelp has -1star?... This is a terrible place .. Food portion is like peanut for the $$$price ... And taste ..damn .. Its like eating mud ... Way to go guys .. :(...

This is a local joint right outside the West Glacier entrance of the park. It is a building divided in two - one side is a large gift shop with knick-knacks, beer, camp snacks, etc. and the other is a diner-style cafe. Menu was typical American/diner-type food - burgers, chicken sandwiches, soups, salads (I went for lunch). Food quality was average, but I don't think you can go in with super-high expectations. Still, it felt good to support the local businesses. Prices were very reasonable. This restaurant is known for its huckleberry pie, so I had to get a slice. It has been featured in Sunset magazine. It was really good and tasted freshly made. For an extra dollar (totaling about $7!), it came with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream. Huckleberries are only found regionally, so most places charge a little more for items made with these berries. I assume their other pies were cheaper. There are clearly a lot of locals who come to this place and were very friendly and welcoming to tourists. Waitress was also friendly and attentive. If you are in the park in late September (when many restaurants have closed) or you get tired of the hotel food, this is a decent place to try "slightly" off the beaten path. Also, of note, right across form the Amtrak station if you take the train to Glacier.

Hmm. I kind of feel bad giving this lowish rating because the grandma who checked us in was so sweet, and so excited to tell us all about their diner that was featured in Sunset magazine. (They did have tasty huckleberry pie...) BUT...any motel that can make my husband complain as much as he complained automatically loses a few stars. Complaint #1--there is a train depot right. accross. the. street. As in a two-lane highway street. As in, I could toss a rock from my room's window and hit a train. And these are long, loud, very very frequent trains. Oh, and walls were paper thin. Glacier's such an awesome place, you don't want to waste your time being sleep deprived. Complaint #2--Hot rooms with no AC. I guess they figured when you're that far north you're not going to need it. But...we needed it. Complaint #3--Sweet grandma was spelled by her stoner grandson...who when I asked him to break my $10 bill offered me 2 $20s. Ummm, thanks Cheech. If you can swing it, stay inside the park at the Village Inn or Lake McDonald Lodge. You'll thank me.

My auntie from Blackfeet always used to stop here with her mom and dad when they were dropping her off at the airport ... it looks kinda like the typical Glacier tourist trap, but the food is EXCELLENT. The fries are huge and look so delicious (I don't know how they taste because I had a salad, but I looked at them longingly as they went out to table after table), and the burgers are delicious (my aunt had one). I ordered a cobb salad expecting mediocrity. It was delicious!! I can't tell you how surprised I was to find a great salad in the middle of Montana!! If you're in Glacier for any reason, you should stop at the Highland ... delicious food AND amazing huckleberry ice cream! Plus, they have homemade huckleberry pie that looks super delicious, too. The waitstaff is super friendly, and the dining area is comfortable and has a chill atmosphere. I'm planning to stop again the next time I'm in Glacier (hopefully next summer)!

The rating is an average.... would give the restaurant 4 stars and the motel 2 stars. The setting is gorgeous... wooded hillside overlooking the train depot (2-3 dozen freight trains per day -- the depot is only for the Amtrak that stops 2x/day). However, the room was very sparsely furnished (one electric outlet, TINY bathroom) and had paper-thin walls that allowed us to hear the room next door have a perfectly normal-volume conversation. Dish TV helped muffle the neighbors, and the office staff was nice enough. Restaurant had great pizza, and a good selection of local (Montana) beers. Service was good-natured, which you don't always get out in the wilderness at the gateway to a National Park.
