I should have known better ordering burgers from a soda shop. The place was sparkling clean, fantastic service cool soda shop atmosphere. We ordered the bison burgers and I think they may have been made from frozen. They just weren't as fresh and juicy as others I've had in Montana. Fries were ok, buy sat under a light for a few minutes before the burgers we're ready. Huckleberry tea was good. We didn't try the ice cream because we were a little disappointed in the burgers. Probably a great place for ice cream. Lots of candy varieties. Not sure how they keep so many varieties fresh, but maybe they were.

Local favorite with a very simple menu. Burgers, corn dogs, and grilled cheese sandwiches(that are on an inside out hamburger bun), and fries(shoestring cut) served in a variety of ways( full basket, half basket, cheese, or chili cheese). The fries were a tad crisp but overall it was a good experience. My wife had a corn dog and I had the patty melt(inside out hamburger bun again). There is a large selection of current magazines as this is a `news stand` and a very large selection of candy that is sold by the pound. Hope this helps. Have a great trip!

Was in search of a huckleberry shake and stopped at Norm's because it was recommended by a friend. We were very impressed. Would love to come back to try their burger, fries, and fudge. Very friendly staff with excellent service.

I love going to Norm's! They have great food and a nice atmosphere. We bring all our visitors here for a fun treat. Phosphate sodas are fun. I will say that their bison burgers are no where near as good as there regular. Still love this place though!

Old fashioned soda fountain. I had a cheeseburger with pickles and mayo, they don't have lettuce or tomato and I'm not a fan of onion so I had that left off. And a strawberry phosphate float with strawberry ice cream, my mom had a hamburger with mayo pickles and onions and a vanilla malt, and we shared a half basket of fries.Our lunch was delicious. The burgers were well cooked, the fries were in need of extra salt, our drinks were both very good, I had never had a phosphate soda before (they are quite tart due to the phosphoric acid), and it was much better when I mixed the ice cream into it, but it was still tasty. I do think it's weird that they don't have lettuce or tomatoes but whatever.

Cute atmosphere, decent food, fun candy shop! The food is priced at gourmet level, however, at least for the burgers, it was of average quality. Don't get me wrong, it was good, but it was made with cheap ingredients. Which is fine, but this was a pricey meal and I received a burger I could have made from Walmart (with the exact same ingredients ) for much cheaper. I went here because I wanted to try something new. Their milkshakes however are fantastic!

We go out of our way for this place. First went here in 2018 on vacation before we moved to Montana, and I got the black licorice ice cream. I hate black licorice candy, but the ice cream was jet black so I was intrigued. Was fantastic, and the rest of the family loved their sundaes. The atmosphere is retro, the service very friendly and very prompt. There's even an old time bar where you can sit and enjoy whatever it is you order. Recently we were at Flathead Lake, but nowhere near Kalispell. We made a special trip to Norm's just to see if it was still awesome. It is.

Great place and atmosphere. Menu is limited to hamburgers, party melts, grilled cheese and hot dogs, but that is exactly what one would expect at a soda fountain place. Excellent shakes, malts and soda fountain flavors and taste. Also sells candy and magazines for all ages. Cute place.

It brings me back to when I was a kid! I STILL AM! The candy is now better than ever to get, with covid rules kids have to deal with a stranger giving them candy so they don't want so much! My daughter used to fill a bag but will now only get a few things! I thought her not to except candy from strangers!

We spent 4 days in Kalispell and Norms by far had the best customer service out of all the restaurants we ate at! The ladies who staffed the restaurant that day were informative, attentive, and friendly. Food was delicious too! The loads of candy was an added bonus. Would recommend this place hands down!!

One of my favorite patty melts! The home made maple bar was also fantastic! I sampled my darling's cheeseburger and found it superb. Honestly no complaints on the food or service! Try a phosphate in any of about 50 flavors - they're delicious!Don't forget to check out all of the candy selection to find some of your classic favorites!
