M & M Cigar Store

You sit here and think that Guy Fieri might just roll in and say "Dude, you're rockin' it" (or another Guy cliche that he's trademarked).  We've been to Butte a few times in the past 20 years but the place was either being renovated or was so deeply divey and dicey that we passed it by.  Butte native Sam Jankovich Jr (his dad was once CEO of the New England Patriots) has poured in some $ to Butte's oldest bar (113 years young), and you can have a beer and burger or fried chicken, plus any one of some other classics.  

The burger is cooked right in front of you on the flat top.  The cook's need to press that piece of meat down with a weighted flatiron leaves it too dry and well done for my taste, but the beef flavor so still there.   Fries are made from real potatoes.  You can play keno or bet on the ponies if you want.  

Watch the 2004 movie "Don't Come Knocking", pick up Dashiell Hammet's classic "Red Harvest" (set in Butte in the late 1920's), and sit in the M&m for an hour or two.  Good times.

First place I went while visiting Butte. Went in late and the bartender was super nice and helpful. My friend had a burger which she let me try and it was awesome. Check this place out!

Breakfast baby!! Custom order your omellet. Come hungry, lots of food. Have a Bloody Mary with breakfast. Priced right. Owner is always there checking in on you. Nice.
