- THE MERCANTILE, Directed by Brian Bolster
Nestled in a remote mountain valley and at the foot door of Montana's Glacier National Park, the historic Polebridge Mercantile dutifully endures as one of the last outposts of its kind in the American West. THE MERCANTILE steps into the working lives of Flannery Coats and Stuart Reiswig, the young couple whose search for the ideal marriage location yielded them the most unforeseen and rewarding challenges of their lives-proprietorship and preservation of a century-old, unchanged business enterprise in a modern and ever-changing world.

Early August this year I visited. Our backpacking trip to Glacier National Park and visiting The Mercantile on our return, staying a night, that's something I won't ever forget.
I was there the last week of May 2023 and it still wonderful to get there and ask for a Huckleberry bear claw and a cup of coffee. It is a wonderful place to visit. Good on you!!
We had a delicious breakfast calzone there in September 2018. What an incredible place that truly is an outpost. The lady that ran the lodge at the West glacier raft company recommended it to us. She guaranteed us to see some wildlife on the drive to Polebridge, and she didn’t disappoint. It’s not uncommon to see moose and deer on the 30 minute drive from West Glacier. What a wonderful step back in time. Also see the owner at Glacier highlands in West Glacier. They have amazing pie, great prices on wine, and amazing food.
great music!!!
So many great memories. We rented a cabin a few miles away. It was one of the best trips ever. I still crave the huckleberry macaroons. The best cookie ever!!
We were there about the time that you purchased the mercantile in 2013. We loved the pastries. the people, and of course the scenery ..We plan on going back, hopefully very soon! God bless..
Went there in 2015 and although the road was brutal on this day, the bear claws and peace by the river were magical...
Very good production 👌 We wanted to stop there on our spring road trip but maybe next year. Can't wait to try that blueberry bear claw yummy!
I can not wait til I get there in August. I can taste the Huckleberry bear claw and the sandwich now. what an amazing place. this will be our second visit and I hope not our last,
Great video! Well done!
I can just taste the huckleberry bear claw. Wish I was there.
Oh, my heart! I visited polebridge in summer 2001. I'll never forget it! Is the Northern Lights Cafe still there? We exited that bar on the evening of my learning my dog passed away at my home in nj and were greeted with northern lights and local dogs of polebridge playing around us. A magical place I'd like to return to. We stayed at a hostel in polebridge.
Yep. I was just there the other day and got a delicious meal and some good beer.
Okay now I am hungry. Lol what an amazing place. You have had a busy wonderful day. Thank you so much for sharing it with me
Those huckleberry bear claws look amazing
What an amazing place, someday hope to visit.
My father and I will be enjoying your area in August. So excited to stop by! :)
