★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Reuben Scott · Mar 2026

Customer service was phenomenal. I would have eaten but breakfast was extremely overpriced and nothing stood out other than the lackluster 90s hospital Cafe vibe. I hate leaving these kind of reviews, but I doubt the owner takes time to listen to the customers or employees advice, or things would change. I stayed for coffee solely based on the server being so personable and accommodating but I would recommend any place besides this. The restaurant itself could have potential if they added ANY sort of specials or remodeled, but as it stands it is not even worth the stop (or really a review). Enjoy downtown Wallace instead if you're in the area, it has plenty to offer with a great historic presence. Thanks again to the amazing server. She made the same on her tip with just a drip coffee as

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Camilia Rodriguez · Jul 2025

The restaurant has nice big windows that allow lots of sunlight inside. The service was slow. I wasn’t attended to until after 5 minutes of being seated. There was a woman server training a young lady and they both seemed to spend most of the time in the pass/kitchen. The food was bland and the hasbrowns were not fresh and they tasted like they were from a freezer box. When I went up to pay, I gave a 15% tip (which I thought was fair all things considered) and the woman turned around and I think she thought I wouldn’t be able to hear when she said “15% is not a good tip” to the young lady. She walked away and I was shocked at her audacity. I hope the young lady learns to be a better server than the woman who was training her. I’m a server on my way to work at Disney World so I know what go

We LOVE going to the Trailside Cafe in Wallace for breakfast. Think about everything you ever loved about hotel coffee shops - and you've found your spot. Fantastic food, friendly servers and reasonable prices. They open early (6:30am), which since we get up at 4am is a huge bonus. Our regular waitress is fantastic (super long hair) and the food servings are huge, and really reasonably priced. I had the Silver Valley Motherload omelet (but scrambled), my husband had the Big Depot, and we split an order of biscuits and gravy. It wasn't just breakfast Thursday - it was also breakfast for both of us for 2 more mornings (mixing the leftovers together and making burritos out of them). If your local, it's so worth the visit. If you're just passing through, it's just one more thing to love
