Black Cat Bake Shop, Missoula MT

Delicious food, great pastries, and breads, pies and many other selections. Friendly workers and clean place. Money raised on the t-shirts and hoodies support animal shelters. I highly recommend the Black Cat Bake Shop. You won't be disappointed

My daughter bought her boss a special cake for a baby shower last week and the head fell off and the cake was $106. This shop offered her a $40 refund. My daughter works in a shop that does over 700 clients a week. They stand behind their work and have pride in their work. This bake shop does not. On top of the head falling off the cake was dry and crumbling. This is the first time she has been disapointed. Sad deal but if this bakery does not back up their product then take your chances. Hope the next guy gets treated better than our daughter did.

The biscuits are absolutely amazing, I had ordered a gluten free cake for my Aunts birthday and it was the talk of the party! Beautiful and amazing! They are the best in town if you ask me!

Wanted a unique geode-style cake for my wedding and had some challenges finding someone willing/available to do this for me. Contacted Black Cat and I was blown away by the professionalism and the flexibility (offered a cake tasting three days before because I was coming from out of town). Lisa gave me exactly what I wanted and I got many compliments on the look and the taste-highly recommend this shop!

They certainly make some very tasty products, there is no doubt about that.

We'd started going there because my girlfriend has celiac disease and they had some fantastic gluten free baked goods. I'm not sure what happened, but the last two times that I've gone there and bought gluten free doughnuts, my girlfriend has spent the next four days in pain, with the usual symptoms of having ingested gluten.

Perhaps one of their ingredients has changed and they're not aware of it, or maybe they're not being as careful about cross contamination as they used to be, but we no longer trust their gluten free products.

We will not be buying from them anymore.

Great atmosphere, good coffee and loved the gluten free lemon donut and my husband enjoyed the blueberry scone. So glad we stopped on the way out of town.

Recommended! I had camped just South of Lolo and we decided to ride into Missoula for breakfast. MUCH better than expected and all very fresh. Worth the stop!

I had their breakfast sandwich. I honestly could not tell you what is on it.but it was made in heaven!

The food was delicious and the staff was amazing! Highly recommend Black Cat Bake Shop:) They have a great variety of treats for any occasion:)

I have always loved Black Cat in the past. I ordered the mocha cake and it wasn't anything like the description. It was vanilla cake instead of chocolate and a very light color frosting similar to vanilla, it had the slightest hint of espresso flavor and the esspresso beans on top but I'm not the biggest fan of vanilla. I'm hoping it was a mistake but I was very disappointed to discover this after cutting into it. I still love you Black Cat but please step up your game

Missoula has at least three bakeries with a variety of offerings that a customer will consider high quality. My favorites at the Black Cat are the almond bearclaws and almond croissants. Obviously, others like them too since they are usually gone by 3pm. Their bread products are also good, as are their lattes and coffee.

Fantastic pastries for breakfast or just for snacks! We picked up some for a road trip and they made the drive all that much better. Highly recommend!

Baker on site creating pure goodness. Great coffee, espresso, breads, pies and more. A must do when in Missoula!

Food wasn’t that good. Short baker was a bit of a boner killer for me, just seems like the type of guy who should run a pizza joint, not a bakery

Their biscuits and gravy is one of my favorite foods i've eaten. Sadly, I think I am done eating them. They are sitting on top of a serving cabinet that is approx. 4.5 feet tall. This is also where many people order. So, they lean in and speak into the biscuit almost like its a microphone. The worst was watching a guy clear his throat into a biscuit 3 times, cough, and continue his order. I had to walk out at that point. I was so excited to get my bicuits and gravy too. I really hope this gets fixed.
Update: went in again a couple weeks later. Biscuits still front and center along with several other uncovered items. Was very busy with people swarming near the uncovered food. Not sure how they can get away without a sneeze guard or simply covers over the exposed food. Walked out again. Dropped to 2 stars. So gross. Very bummed.

I give this rating because the wait staff and coffee we're exceptional, the jalapeno cornbread was decent. But the biscuits and gravy was garbage. It was really runny and it tasted like they used powder sugar instead of flower. The manager was quick to respond but I was scared to try it again.

Very beautiful and inviting coffeehouse and bake shop! Business was popping while I was here for breakfast. The staff are all warm and friendly. I was very happy with the croissant and huckleberry bear claw I had.not to mention the many refills of fresh coffee! Definitely suggest this cozy place in Missoula.

Amazing baked goods! I sincerely hope at some point that plain croissants become a regular offering - filled is great, but sometimes less is more and their base croissant is fantastic.

I had the biscuits and gravy recently and it has a sweet undertone with a pleasantly mild spice in the gravy itself. So good and very filling.

They're my go-to for celebratory cakes as well. Beautifully made offerings and just the right size for how incredibly rich they taste.

If you want to show someone you love them, get them a Pot de Creme. You won't be sorry. Everything else is great too.

This place is the best bakery in Missoula hands DOWN! Try their biscuits and gravy, sandwiches, AND of course their baked goodies! Their lemon cookies are out of this world, their holiday stollen is seasonal and just to die for! The folks there KNOW how to bake bread and sweets! I have been going here for about 5 years now and it's a MISSOULA must!

I ordered a cookie plate from Black Cat for a dinner party and it was truly wonderful! There was a really nice variety of cookies and every single one of them was tasty and beautiful, especially the bars that were made out of pecan pie ingredients. Wow! The people in the shop were super helpful and friendly as well. This locally owned bakery serves a little bit of heaven!
