We LOVE going to the Trailside Cafe in Wallace for breakfast. Think about everything you ever loved about hotel coffee shops - and you've found your spot. Fantastic food, friendly servers and reasonable prices. They open early (6:30am), which side we get up at 4am is a huge bonus. Our regular waitress is fantastic (super long hair) and the food servings are huge, and really reasonably priced. I had the Silver Valley Motherload omelet (but scrambled), my husband had the Big Depot, and we split an order of biscuits and gravy. It wasn't just breakfast Thursday - it was also breakfast for both of us for 2 more mornings (mixing the leftovers together and making burritos out of them). If your local, it's so worth the visit. If you're just passing through, it's just one more thing to love about the Silver Valley, and Wallace in particular.

Probably the most fun I've had at a job. I loved working here. At one point I was the fry cook, bartender, waitress, hostess, busboy, and dishwasher all at once which i really enjoyed and when help did come they couldn't have been cooler people to work with. Usually its the customers reviewing the workers but I would like to say how friendly, patient and polite all the guests were.
Very good breakfast. Very good service by the only hostess/waitress/table busser/and dishwasher.

I had to write a review because of all the negative reviews here. Maybe service is an issue during summer, but I had no problem.. The waitress was polite, attentive, and efficient. The food was standard breakfast fair, tasty and reasonably priced. The pancakes were fluffy and the bacon was thick cut with four large slices to a side.This was the only place that was open for many miles before 7:00, so that forced me here and I'm glad I came.
I feel so obligated to review this place. My husband and I had been to every other breakfast place in Wallace, and felt like we needed to finally try this one, despite the mediocre reviews we saw online. We were so blown away! Had the Center of the Universe breakfast and a short stack of pancakes (we split them - I'm not a monster). Breakfast is just about the only meal I'm at all discerning about, and this was seriously one of my favorite meals in the past year. The pancakes were so fluffy, and the other was just awesome. The service was speedy, attentive and chipper, although we walked in just before it closed. I would (and will!) 100% go back here for sure!
