Had the pleasure to enjoy whistling Andy sprits during a St. Patrick’s Day party… the huckleberry lemonade cocktail was fantastic A+
We stopped in this afternoon for drinks and a quick bite. The aviation was fantastic, the espresso martini was good although garnished with a dehydrated lime slice which was a first for me. Trout dip was delicious as were the short rib quesadillas.
What really brought down our experience was the service. We felt… to be frank, unwelcome. Our bartender was cold, disengaged, and barely acknowledged us despite it being a quiet day with only two other couples in the building besides us. We could probably have been upsold on more drinks, bottles, and merch but felt we were not really wanted so left after one drink and apps.
What a great rest, bar and distillery experience just in an convenient spot besides the main road. Food was absolutely delicious, spirit and cocktails were right on spot and went really well with dishes. Most of all, service was magnificent!
Also a cherry on the cake, a craft distillery in the back of the restaurant. You just know exactly what you've drank. The owner was really nice and made a thorough introduction of his distillery. Impressive... A must visit restaurant, bar and distillery when you're in the neighborhood.
Awesome location! Great cocktails!
This place is very nice and great drinks but the staff is not helpful at all. Not friendly or welcoming.
Used to be one of our favorite stops when visiting Bigfork, but sadly the atmosphere has changed since moving to their new space. And what’s with a “Delivery Fee” unannounced charge added to the tab for staff bringing drinks to your table. I miss the old “Whistling Andy’s”!
Their bourbon was good but their smoked trout dip was AMAZING. I could eat it with a spoon. We left the dip bowl clean.
The drinks here wonderful, the staff is amazing and the food is great. Tried the sushi yesterday and it was fantastic.
Stopped in for a quick tasting. Bought two bottles and a T-shirt. Friendly people. We will stop again if ever passing through. Right on the highway.
First experience was great. Second time here was polar opposite. Drinks were given to us 30 minutes after ordered and poorly made without garnishing we previously really loved. Our food was complete trash. Our sushi with “yellowtale” was literally a roll of rice with the smallest piece of fish.
The Goat sandwich bread practically crumbled in my hands, I cannot believe they would even considered giving it to guests. The staff this particular evening was under trained and honestly were just bodies keeping this place open.

Always my favorite to stop in for a fabulous Negroni and a bite to eat! Great service
Super casual. Great atmosphere! Food is always amazing.
Nice atmosphere and service is great. Food was pretty good as well as the drinks
Friendly and great service! Delicious spirits and cocktails! Delicious food!
I really wanted to like this place but it was a big disappointment (mostly due to the staff). The food was not terrible but not good (the quesadilla was ok, the salad was quite bad). But the worst part was the staff. The bartender/waitress (woman with jet black hair, ponytail) was amazingly bad. We waited very long for food and saw many people who came in after us served but not our food. I asked the waitress if she would check on our food. Although she said yes, i then watched her for 10 minutes standing behind the bar doing nothing. So i then went into the kitchen to ask and the cook said our food had been sitting there for a very long time -- the waitress was taking everyone's food out except ours. When i told this to the waitress, all she said was "oh" -- no apology - almost like she was trying to be a j**** I then went into the kitchen and got our food and brought it to our table -- waitress just watched. Amazing.Again, we really wanted to like this place (it was recommended by a friend). While the setting is nice, the food wasn't good and the waitress/staff was beyond bad. Hopefully she will get her act together - she doesn't represent the place well.
