Went to Nell's after hiking in Many Glacier. The food and the prices were excellent. We had the Mac and Cheese's, Pepperoni pizza, and burgers. All were good, especially the Mac and Cheese's. The service was excellent, but it is an order first and then...they deliver to your table; so if you are looking for a standard sit-down restaurant, you will have to go to the Many Glacier lodge for that. I truly enjoyed the atmosphere. It is definitely a diner, complete with seats at the "bar". I would recommend this, especially if you are looking for something good, quick, and low price.More

We actually ate 2 meals here (dinner and breakfast) and both were bad. We hoped the first was an aberration, we were wrong. It seems the key in NPs now is to bring your own food. The people were nice, the food was just bad.

We ate multiple meals at Nell's while at Swiftcurrent Lodge. We ate a lot of different things: burgers, BBQ mac & cheese, huckleberry cheesecake, and enjoyed numerous huckleberry beers. The food was really good and fairly reasonably priced considering you don't have many options inside...the park at Many Glacier. I was really happy with Nell's.More

We arrived just after 4:00 for an early dinner. The line at the counter moved fast and there was plenty of seating at that time. We had a cheese pizza, pepperoni pizza, hamburger, and kids grilled cheese with a side salad. All of our food...was good. The pizzas were larger than I expected they would be and we ended up taking home 4 slices. The restaurant options in this area are very limited so I was glad we found Nell’s. Plus you can walk next door to the general store after dinner and get huckleberry soft serve.More

Decided to grab a bite for dinner before doing an evening hike to Fishercap Lake to spot a moose. It is a restaurant where you wait in a very long line to place an order and have one person in your party try to grab...a table so you’ll have a place to sit upon getting your food. Two people in our party had a club sandwich and one a hamburger. A bit pricey for the food. The club sandwich was to have bacon on it….but those in our party eating were laughing at the game they had of “Find the bacon”…seemed more like a couple bacon bites had been added in one or two place than actual bacon. Over-priced for the environment. Seems they need more help in the kitchen and more help up front to keep the food /line moving. I’d recommend to people taking orders and additional cooks preparing the food.More

None of us cared for our food. My adult daughter ordered the grlled chicken sandwich, expecting it to be a chicken breast. It was a lightly breaded frozen chicken patty and was not good at all. She asked to have it replaced wth a grilled...cheese. My husband got pizza, which wasn't good, either. My son and I got the smoked trout BLT. He said it was pretty good but I didn't care for it. Overpriced for the quallity.More

3 couples and one two-year-old enjoyed a great meal for a good value. The food tasted great and the portions were perfect. Beer was reasonably priced as well. Some entrees were not available because it was late in the season and they do not restock...at that time (Late August) but there were plenty of choices and great service.More

I had the breakfast wrap two days, and the rainbow trout sandwich one day. Pepperoni pizza for dinner was excellent! Side salad was excellent! The chocolate chunk cookies for dessert were pre-packaged, but excellent! The turkey club sandwich was very good. My husband said the...cheeseburger was okay.More

Great, friendly service. Food is good, but selection is narrow. Order at the counter and they deliver to table. Can package your meal for takeout if you desire.

There are not many options for eating when staying at the Swift Current Lodge so one must accept what is available. That was the case with Nell's. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, but the food was average. Breakfast was actually the best meal...of the day with healthy portions and tasty dishes. The oatmeal was quite good. Sandwiches were okay. One day we wanted pizza but they ran out. If you don't mind having average, but decent food then Nell's is fine.More

I’ve eaten here 3 years ago with my beloved late husband, David; it was very good & the food, especially the Mediterranean salad with gyro meat, was presented beautifully…This time around, the food is still very good, but not quite as “pretty”. I’ve enjoyed dinner...& breakfast here this time around, & it’s very reasonable when you consider where you are! The servers & cashiers are wonderful, too—very enthusiastic & friendly!More

I can tell you it had the worst pizza ever had in my 70 plus years of eating it. Order something else. These places are run by a large outside company and the food,prices and service is pretty bad. And it's the only place in...Many Glacier being the Nat Park. Not open to private enterprise so they get away with it. Same goes for the St. Mary's place. Don't expect a great meal for the price. Just like the fuel there being over $ 1.50 more then neighboring towns. And the price of windshild washer fluid $ 5.50. Bring your own food.More

After a full day out hiking we went to Nells for pizza! You cannot call and order ahead of time. We ere all very satisfied with our pizza selection! Food choices due to Covid are limited in the National Parks so this was a very...nice change. There is also a very nice gift store on site!More

Offers carry-out only, but some booths are open for use. Nothing but pizza left, though it was good. Very clean restrooms, convenient location at trailheads.
