Story

Matt's Place Drive-In in Butte, Montana is one of the first drive-in restaurant in Montana. Unlike later drive-ins, which frequently featured a streamline moderne style, or at least an acknowledgement of their orientation to automobile-oriented customers, Matt's Place was a straightforward conversion of a house to serve customers in cars. Established in 1930, its chief concession to the automobile is a tall curb to keep parking cars from hitting the building and a menu on the outside of the building, advertising curb service. The interior retains its 1936 counter and 1950s lighting fixtures.

This is such a great little secret! Real burgers and real fries. Can't beat it!! The staff is super cool and down to Earth too. Definitely my new favorite spot.

Hidden Treasures of Butte Montana: #2 This place has been a hidden Montana treasure since the 1930s (still owned by the same family). It is also registered in the Montana historic registry! Burgers here are made with fresh beef and hand made patties. These burgers are also 'no frills' burgers with lettuce, tomato and onions. No fancy sauce needed to mask the taste of real fresh beef! The milk shakes are hand made right in front of you. The ice cream that goes in these shakes are also made on premises. They give you so much so that you won't be able to finish it (at least I never can). I can't whole heartedly recommend the vanilla shake, however. It tasted too bland with not much vanilla flavor. I do however highly recommend the banana, strawberry, huckleberry and chocolate - I've had them all previously. Seating is limited and you might have to settle for standing room only. But it would be worth the experience. I give it four stars because the wait staff wasn't that friendly; it seems the friendliness have degraded over the years (comsidering friendly and hospitable Montanans). I do highly recommend the old world burger, milk shake and soda fountain experience!

Bar none, the best burgers and fries in Butte. Fresh, flavorful and hot! The only drawback is the very limited seating (all at the counter, elbow to elbow with strangers--but, Butte being Butte, you're never a stranger for long!).

So good! Locals and tourists alike will love this trip back in time!
