The Tin Snug

Delicious baked good prepared on site, wonderful rich coffee, and cozy and inviting atmosphere! It’s worth a detour into Wallace to check out this little gem!

We stopped at The Tin Snug in Wallace and ordered a Paddy Melt, a Reuben, two deli sandwiches, a grilled turkey sandwich, and a bowl of broccoli cheddar soup. Every bite was excellent—the bread was grilled to perfection, the cheese melted flawlessly, and the veggies were fresh and crisp. Each sandwich came with kettle-cooked chips and a snappy slice of pickle, which tied the meal together nicely. The atmosphere is just as memorable as the food. The place is decorated in a dark, unique way with thoughtful touches, and they even sell vinyl albums, which adds to the charm. Although we didn’t grab any this time, the coffee smelled amazing. It’s the perfect spot for a casual lunch when passing through Wallace—great food, friendly vibes, and plenty of character. Highly recommended!

Absolute gem! The food is so delicious, I guarantee you will be thinking about this place for a long time if you cannot access it readily after your visit. The Classic Reuben is a star but we can say for sure the Irish cheesesteak will blow your tastebuds away with its flavorful mix! I really wish I could take this place home with me.

We are on a cross-country road trip and stumbled upon The Tin Snug. This, by far, has been hands down, the BEST breakfast food and coffee since we left Michigan. We had eggs, toast, red skin potatoes, and coffee. I was about to ask for salt and pepper since there wasn’t any on the table but, no need! It was seasoned to perfection. The toast was grilled, the potatoes (with onions and peppers) were so tasty and were not greasy or overdone. The coffee was delicious and strong, just what we needed before getting back on the road. The atmosphere is contemporary but also cozy. It was fun to be able to see breakfast being prepared. The bathroom is nicely decorated and so clean. At the back of the café is a vinyl shop with loads of great music to choose from. The staff was friendly and we had an enjoyable chat with one of the owners. This was our first stop in Idaho and it was a welcomed one. If we were locals, we’d be regulars. I have rarely ever been moved to write a review, but really felt the need to after this visit. Thank you, Tin Snug for the sustenance and ambiance. Bravo! 👏

I would give this place 6 stars at least, if I could. The food is outstanding! The Reuben is a must have, one of the best ever!! So many fun things to explore. Great vinyls, fun mugs, great quality Tees, coffee, and more. The atmosphere is fantastic. Comfy seating both to eat and just enjoy a hot mug of coffee. The owners are amazing! . Love this place!
