The Cateye Café is one of my personal favorites here in Bozeman! The aesthetics are so quaint and cozy, the food is always delicious, and the staff are vibrant with personality and are very sweet! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat some yummy breakfast and take in some great vibes! 💜

every time i’ve come here it’s been the worst service, terrible proportions, and super expensive.
first experience was a little after covid times, a friend and i had come for breakfast of course, they sat us at a nice little two person table as it was just the two of us and then as soon as we’re ready to order they ask us to move, so we move to a much bigger table, and then they walk up with a couple and verbatim say “oh, did we not tell you? this is the community table” mind you covid was still going on and we would’ve been much more comfortable being at our own table instead of sharing one with people we didn’t know. whatever i don’t remember how the food was so must’ve not been too great.
second time was better, 2024 same friend and i go as she loves this place for some odd reason so i agree to go, i got like 1/3 of a potato the smallest eggs and 2 small pieces of sausage and a mimosa (literally just tasted like a glass of champagne with a tiny hint of huckleberry which i paid extra for lol), and breakfast ended up being 68 dollars total for the both of us (she got the same thing plus a brownie or some baked good) idk i could have made a better breakfast at home for way cheaper + much more food
the last time i went was last month i wanna say, boyfriend and i went and i decided to give it one more shot. breakfast was decent but tiny proportions once again and nothing too special, i will say their blueberry pancake or whatever it was was absolutely delicious, however service was crappy. i get the place is busy but good service makes all the difference a smile or asking how our food was would've been nice. we get the bill and it was 70 dollars?? i wasn’t very happy with breakfast or my drink or service or how pricey it was for the smallest proportion so i did not tip and we left. i check my bank a couple of days later and see that i was charged nearly 80 dollars? i called and they said they do a 3% hold automatically but that “someone must have been going fast” and “filled it out wrong” so basically admitting a tip was added? idk i had to call and email the owner and all i was offered was a 7 dollar refund, when i asked for my receipt to just get it disputed through my bank they told me they “didn’t have it” and i’ve heard nothing back since, so ive given up.
and the flies. disgusting. read the other reviews you’ll see it’s clearly been an issue. i get it’s a restaurant and stuff like that happens but i feel way less grimey and gross at nova cafe, better proportions and price and service.

My goodness the food here is so good. I had the turkey with mashed potatoes and gravy and it tasted like a home cooked meal. My wife tried the daily special, a turkey pesto sandwich with a pasta salad side. Everything seemed to be made in house and it was all so good!

What a wonderful experience! My husband and I’s first time in Bozeman and we stumbled upon this place. It’s such a fun atmosphere and every employee had a smile on their face and greeted us. You just don’t get that nowadays! The food was AMAZING and well worth the price! Highly recommend 😻

This place showcases the classic charm of Bozeman. I’m not from here, but we stopped in thoroughly enjoying the atmosphere and character this old restaurant possesses. I can tell Bozeman has exploded in growth in recent years but seeing places like this one shows that there’s still the humble beginnings.
The flies. They are everywhere. Do something. Please. Such an uncomfortable feeling.

When in town for a wedding, a friend recommended a breakfast joint down the way that ended up being closed and thank goodness they were!!! because then we stumbled up on Cateye Cafe a couple blocks down main street. We added our name to their call out sheet and only waited about 15 minutes? The staff was busting butt running around crazy, but you wouldn’t know they were busy because their service was very efficient and they were all light hearted and happy to be helping. The food was DELICIOUS and had a homemade quality to it- 10/10!! My favorite part and what will keep us coming back whenever in town, was the atmosphere- you look around and not a single person was on their phone because at each table is playing cards, trivia games, little trinkets and more. Cateye truly provides a space to connect with each other, laugh and enjoy the moment. Cateye’s got something good going, don’t miss out!

This place is good for a breakfast meal. Service seems a little for a slower time. The food was good. Expect to pay over 5 dollars for coffee, dollars for a single pancake, and dollars for added bacon to your order. 2 peeps, over $75.00w/tip.
Great service and excellent food!
