Another fast food chain on our list of “destination restaurants” is Crispy cream. I remember my mom calling me when I was in college and telling me there was a Krispy Kreme in Missoula. She wasn't really into donuts so I didn't know what the big deal was, but she told me about the long lines of people waiting for donuts. And before arriving in Missoula, she used to buy Krispy Kreme whenever she was in Spokane (and it's not out of the question for her to find her own excuse to go to Spokane).
According to a 2015 article on montanarightnow.com, Missoula's original Krispy Kreme closed in 2007, but reopened just off Brooks Street on Central Avenue and is still in business today. Here's where you can currently find Krispy Kreme in Montana:
- Billings – 2520 Central Avenue
- Missoula 1025 W Central Avenue
- Kalispell – Highway 93 N
