Craft Cocktails, Great Food, Live Music & Amazing Views!
Welcome to The Raven on beautiful Flathead Lake! The Raven offers a waterfront dining destination with a fun, Caribbean-style atmosphere. Enjoy fresh, locally inspired cuisine indoors or on one of our two lakeside decks. Paddle in, boat up, or dive off our dock into the clear waters of Flathead Lake - the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi and one of the clearest lakes in the world!
Our menu blends local ingredients with global flavor — from all-natural burgers and fish tacos to Thai favorites and fresh salads. We’ve got something for everyone, including gluten-free, vegetarian, and kid-friendly options. For the full menu please click HERE.
But The Raven is more than just dining; it's an experience. We are the longest operating live music venue on Flathead Lake. We proudly showcase Montana musicians as well as fantastic traveling bands. With our Margarita Mondays, Walleye Fish Fridays and special themed events, our events calendar is bursting with unforgettable moments all summer long.
Whether you're craving fresh, inspired food or looking to tap into the local vibe, The Raven offers more than just a meal — it’s a place to gather, unwind, and experience the best of Flathead Lake.
Join us for the perfect day at the lake!
We offer live performances and special events most days of the week during the summer. Hours vary throughout the season. Please check our calendar below.
