Menus in Sandpoint often cater to the health conscious, with a high degree of energy channeled into fresh food preparation. Degrees of sophistication vary, but excellent meals can be purchased, ranging from Italian regional dishes to steak, seafood and nouvelle cuisine not routinely expected from restaurants in a small town.
Whether you order chilled prawns with remoulade sauce, or an exquisite serving of pasta and veal, it's a good bet you will be delighted with your evening meal in Sandpoint. And should you by chance notice that fresh huckleberry pie is available on the menu, go for it!
Breakfast, lunch or dinner, many of Sandpoint's restaurants and cafes serve drinks and meals outdoors in season. Dining is generally casual, and even at blue-ribbon dining facilities, the feeling seems to be that a restrictive dress code in this land of incomparable beauty would somehow not be appropriate.
