Once nicknamed the crown jewel of the Hi-Line, Havre is a charming little railroad city located in north-central Montana. Although it was founded primarily to serve as a major railroad service center for the Great Northern Railway, these days, it’s a pretty quiet place best known for its Havre Beneath the Streets tour.

But this is definitely a city that hasn’t forgotten its roots. Take the appropriately named Boxcars Restaurant and Bar, which serves tasty food and cold drinks in a vaguely railroad themed building.

You'll find Boxcars Restaurant and Bar on First Street in Havre's little downtown area.

And if you're feeling lucky, just head to the casino games in the bar area and try your hand at shuffle board or poker.
But as fun as the games are, it's the food that keeps people coming back to this charming little spot.

Among other things, it's known for having the best burgers in town.
