Dandelion Catering & Events

This French-inspired NEIGHBORHOOD Cafe is a lovely little spot for breakfast, lunch, or even a quick coffee/tea. The portions are perfect with affordable prices and the chefs are obviously putting their hearts into the meals. The daily specials are fantastic and the coffee isn't burnt (looking at you, missoula). The staff are very friendly and the kitchen staff are genuinely interested in opinions on their craft. The only critique I have is that it's not big enough, and I only say this because I'm positive this will become a very popular spot. But it's okay, because you can call ahead.

Really nice atmosphere. Intimate, friendly. I had a perfect bbq'd Frankfurter during their grand opening!

Delicious food, outstanding ambience, and my coffee was great! Only drawback were some uncouth comments from the blue-haired cashier/server that made myself and my spouse a bit uncomfortable. Also, the deli has a relatively small dining area which made it all the easier to overhear her loudly gossiping and vaping behind the counter while preparing another persons coffee (another thing I did not expect in this environment). All in all a great place and will recommend others for the food and peaceful setting!

Just the most adorable spot to a have a Vivace coffee, a crepe or the soup du jour. The service was wonderful and my son and myself felt very comfortable there. Get the gumbo and the pie, you will not be disappointed! Can’t wait to go back and get a cortado and a crepe!

The staff are very friendly and informative! It is a super cute little place with indoor and outdoor seating. The food is incredible!! Deli salads were so fresh! The sandwich special of the day, a duck confit with orange marmalade and Brie, was AMAZING!

I just had my second meal here and can confidently say I will be a regular. I’ve had the quiche, minestrone soup, brownies and coffee cake and all have been excellent. I love the atmosphere and decoration. I also love how it’s tucked right away, just off the path, like a magical secret luncheon spot. I will definitely be bringing my out of town friends here when they visit.

Dandelion Catering went above and beyond to provide all the meals for our multi-day retreat. The menu was amazing with lots of local gems, and so thoughtful with our many dietary needs. I highly recommend.

Only positives to report for Dandelion Catering! Tara has catered several work events, and it's always fabulous. Beautiful, healthy, delicious meals and snacks keep our all-day meetings flowing well. Looking forward to our next catered event.

Dandelion Catering did a work event I attended and oh my goodness the food was incredible! Delicious, fresh, and high quality; you can taste the care put into every bite. There were tasty options for all dietary preferences and the presentation was beautiful too.

This catering was the perfect addition to our event!! The food was delicious, fresh, and gorgeous. The presentation was so impressive. I highly recommend!!!

Tara at Dandelion catering not only makes fresh, healthy, delicious foods but presents them beautifully! I recently discovered her business at a farewell party for a friend and loved everything on the table. From fruit and veggie platters to small bento-like boxes, to an incredible array of decadent desserts- it was all excellent. I couldn’t recommend Dandelion Catering more! Such a great addition to Missoula’s food options!

Dandelion Catering helped put together a wonderful spread for a going away party. The food was beautifully presented and best of all, tasted delicious! It was healthy, wholesome, and the perfect compliment to an amazing evening with friends. I would definitely recommend!!

Working with Tara was a dream. The food was incredible and the presentation was beautiful. I look forward to working with Dandelion Catering again soon — and will be a frequent customer of the"grab & go" options.

For Mother’s Day my son ordered Dandelion’s brunch. We were blown away! Absolutely beautiful, delicious and healthy! Highly recommend!
