Kally's Korner & Hirbour Tower

Kally's Korner always catches my eye because of the beautiful window decor.  I popped in today to find Cathy Moodry working.  She is the creator of the seasonal window displays --currently bright yellow flowers!  Kally's Korner, owned by Debbie McGloin, has been on the corner of Main & Broadway for over 25 years.  I love the 100% organic cotton selections she carries.  The clothing store is located on the first level of Hirbour Tower ...built in 1910.  The levels above the shop are being renovated into 7 upscale condominiums --see the Montana Standard link for more information: http://mtstandard.com/news/local/developer-given-financial-boost-for-butte-s-hirbour-tower-project/article_2b5b3406-a0c6-11e0-a4a8-001cc4c002e0.html   

Cathy Moodry --(window artist) also does the decor for weddings and other events.

The Hummingbird Cafe

The Hummingbird Cafe opened in 2007 at 605 W. Park Street.  The menu offers local and organic choices. The atmosphere is bright  and welcoming for group meetings, catching up with friends or to sit with a cup of coffee and work on your laptop.  Warmer months offer dining outside in a courtyard area.  They have monthly rotating local artist's showings and live musical performances.

Headframe Spirits

Headframe Spirits opened in 2010 at 21 S. Montana.  The atmosphere is open and friendly and the whiskey is delicious.  They carry Gin, Vodka, Bourbon & Bourbon Cream Liqueur.  Artist's openings feature music and catered appetizers.  They just had a potluck competition where entries were required to use one of their spirits as ingredients!
