Better than expected. I had high hopes based off other reviews but was a bit disappointed with the variety when I saw the initial menu. It reminded me of a bunch of unimaginative surf and turf shops. I went with the Bison Hash and was quite happy with the choice. So overall, better than average but probably wouldn’t make it into my Billings top ten. Also quite a ways from downtown. Probably a good spot for anyone who lives within a mile where other options are particularly spartan. Average service and atmosphere for the price. Probably pricier than average for the area. Quality/price is probably closer to high three star for area.

This is the second time I have tried the Local in Billings and am equally dissatisfied this time as I was the first time. I ordered a simple traditional breakfast and just like the last time I went (when my French toast was burned and flipped over so I wouldn 'tnotice), this time my biscuit was burned and flipped over so I couldn 't even see that it was burned until I bit into it. I ordered my eggs over easy they were over hard. The hash browns are cooked In a deep fryer , but the BACON was great! Another point, their biscuits are advertised as light and fluffy which they definitely are NOT. Heavy dense is more accurate. They served me a serving of jam which was probably cooked (and sadly tasted burned) in house. Not sure if this establishment has changed hands since the last time, but food has not improved. Maybe they should have a quality control taster? Not sure.

Found this place as we were on a cross country road trip and loved it. Worth the stop and slight detour to find great local food and service! Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Staff Berger
