Butte was a very depressing little town but we were hungry while passing thru. We trip advised this place and it sounded neat. We were so glad we stopped. Great atmosphere, great food, very reasonable prices! We would eat here again if we were in Butte!

Atmosphere is the best if you love old cars, gas station signs, and anything car related. The napkins are even shop towels, and oil cans are converted into lights. Food is average, but the staff were friendly and efficient.

messed up a group reservation, but otherwise all was good. Food was tasty and staff was super nice. It's a Butte must see, so check it out.

Sparky's is a lot of fun. It feels like an old garage with beer taps in gas pumps and oil rags for napkins. You can even eat in the bed of a pickup. The food is excellent. We enjoyed the chef salad, sweet potato fries, and pulled pork sandwiches. The servings are large, and the service is attentive.

We go here often and have never been disappointed. Wait staff are outstanding and VERY attentive. Fried catfish here is "outasight" delicious.....just like everything else on the menu. Stop in when you're in Butte.....you won't be disappointed.

This is a typical restaurant with a big menu and all the regular items you would expect to see. I have eaten here twice and both times I was disappointed. Food was not fresh And not very tasty. Service was fine once, and the other time it was horrendous as our waiter was very rude. The only good quality is... More

Visited sparky's during happy hour, if you sit in the bar section you get $2 off beer & $3 off apps. We had 3 tasty apps and two good craft beers for total $18. Great view of lower city valley. Interior is all antique garage memorabilia

We had gotten to town late and were directed to this place near the hotel. We got there just before they closed and they seated us right away. The service was excellent, the sweet potato fries just right, and it was great fun to see all the vintage stuff.......pin ball machines!

This was our second time at Sparky's Garage. The first time was when it first opened, and it was not great. The second time was better, but still not great. Great view of downtown Butte, and lots to see inside. The catfish was ok, the BBQ beans were ok, the chicken strips (SS 396) were good and the fries were... More

I love Sparkies location and that you can look out across to the Highlands. My favorite is the brisket. The bar b q is good too. Good selection of beers. And in the Summer you can sit outside on the deck...very nice.
