June 12, 2012 (Alpine)- Janet’s Montana Cafe, a cozy little hideaway in Alpine, definitely shows the true meaning of western-style. The Old West theme was apparent the moment we walked in, greeted by a large bull moose head on the wall.
Cheery servers guided us to rustic seating. Carved wooden chairs and tables filled the area show in every knott and curve in the natural furniture. Western artwork covered the walls, as well as a few deer-antler light fixtures that matched some massive antler chandeliers.
My companion and I both ordered a breakfast item, considering the restaurant serves breakfast all day. We were brought our meals in a timely fashion, a fresh blackberry waffle with ripe berries and a generous portion of pumpkin pancakes, each served with a side of fluffy eggs and crispy bacon.
But Janet’s doesn’t just serve breakfast; it has a wide menu selection, including Mexican dishes as well as hearty fare such as pork chops, steak and bison burgers, lighter sandwiches and salads, homemade pies and more. Tucked into one corner of the diner is also a coffee bar.
After enjoying our meal, we ventured onto their sunny patio, which is dog friendly with a lovely view. Butterflies flitted around the outdoor tables, shaded from the sun by large umbrellas. The scene was peaceful and comfortable.
