Twenty minutes from Sandpoint, Idaho, and newly remodeled, The Floating Restaurant in Hope has been one of the area's finest dining experiences for over 25 years.

Open Easter through October for lunch, dinner and Sunday brunch, Lake Pend Oreille's only Floating Restaurant has been offering made-from-scratch specialties and providing the best catering in the area by chef/owner Elissa Robbins, since 1989.

Elissa takes pride in serving only the freshest ingredients, including fresh seafood, local buffalo, choice beef steaks and savory pastas.  All soups, sauces, breads and desserts are prepared on site from scratch.

The "Floater" rides the gentle waves of Ellisport Bay in Hope Marina, and  boasts a heated outdoor dining deck as well as an air-conditioned dining room.
