Canyon Critter Coffee
10130 Hwy 2 E, Kalispell, MT
Crema's Take
“This adorable coffee hut in Kalispell has earned serious devotion for its flaky huckleberry puff tarts (think elevated toaster strudel) and hearty breakfast burritos that customers are still raving about weeks later. Beyond the stellar coffee drinks, what really sets Canyon Critter apart is their commitment to quality at every turn—from the perfectly seasoned savory pastries to the friendly employees who make the quick-grab experience feel genuinely warm. Whether you're grabbing a matcha latte or a gooey ham and cheese sandwich before hitting the trails, this spot punches well above its weight as a casual walk-up window.”

This is a coffee hut, not a sit down shop. The coffee was very good, we got Carmel lattes. I also had a sausage burrito which was excellent as well as a potato patty that tasted like a fresh potato they just ground up and pressed in to a patty for us. The service here was also exceptionally friendly.
The huckleberry puff tart tasted like an elevated toaster strudel! I would say it’s more like a toaster strudel than a pop tart, but in my opinion, that’s better! It was flaky, the filling was delicious, and the frosting had a hint of cream cheese that was amazing. So glad we stopped!!
My Godddd That is not using the Lord’s name in vein, that is using the Lord’s name in appreciation. This was a great spot. Maybe I was extra hungry. But we had a huckleberry puff tart, the seasoned Sando, a hot chocolate, and an iced chai. My goodness it’s all good. Everything is local or made in house down to where the chai tea comes from and the whipped cream on the hot chocolate. Spectacular spot on a sunny chilly mountain morning before a big bike ride. Only downside is while we were eating I watched a line of cars develop, with some people waiting a while. We got there when there was no line, but this could definitely be a problem I’d imagine. Either way I’ve been dreaming of a warm huckleberry puff tart since we left. Nothing like that in Wisconsin!
Fabulous matcha latte, delicious huckleberry puff and a breakfast burrito, the veggie one, that we are still talking about weeks later. The employees were so sweet and everything we ordered was perfect!! If we were local, we'd go here everyday. Hopefully we'll get to visit Montana again and if and when we do, we're definitely going here first!
We just returned from a 7k mi road trip all over the Mountain West and out of every place I ate - this place was the best!! The breakfast ham and cheese sammy was gooey, cheesy, toasty, warm, fantastic. The folks working were kind. The coffee was fresh roasted, perfectly prepared. Oh, and the views up Going To the Sun were cool, too 😎
