Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you -- there's always a pancake party happening inside.
Paul's was founded in 1963 by Paul Gjording, who took great pride in his pancake spot.

When Paul sold the restaurant to Elly Ramos, he taught her everything she knew. Elly eventually sold the place to her son, Mike Ramos, who owns it today... but not before she made him work there every day for a year so she could pass on Paul's wisdom.
Restaurants come and go in Missoula, but Paul's remains a cherished local gathering spot.
