Locally owned bar with a great atmosphere and excellent service! Kept our glasses full in a packed house the entire 3 hours watching the MSU Bobcats play ball! Highly recommend 👌

Went in because the sign outside said they served until 12am on a Friday… ordered drinks at 9:50 to be told the kitchen was already closed

The drinks were terrible. Just a mix of a bunch of artificial cheap liquids. And the fries with curry sauce also soo bad. The environment was nice but it can get crowded. The bartender/waitress was nice. Not going back. Very disappointed

UPDATE: The owner’s response is so hilarious! Hahahaha. Even though you didn’t give me any useful tips on making drinks, you gave me a good laugh.

Was in Bozeman for the day and we stopped here for a drink before our flight back home. Ordered the Caesar salad and it was amazing. The chicken breast was good and seasoned well. Good portion size. Rooftop was nice with mountain view. Bartender greeted us as we arrived and was quick to take orders. We were a group of 13 and he took care of us.

Awesome local joint only 2 blocks off main street, the service was very helpful & food came out quickly, flavorful wings and quite a variety of cold beers.
Highly Recommended and will definitely be back.

Place is a disaster. Walk upstairs to patio, very unkempt appearance at the top server station. Whatever, it was a beautiful day and we were looking forward to enjoying a drink/light eats on the patio. We were seated promptly and nobody came back to take our order despite guy taking care of other tables coming in after, us trying to wave him down, etc. Completely ignored us, so we left. Downstairs plenty of people able to take our order, but for us it was too late. We hopped over to Montana Ale Works and had a fabulous evening there! Do not recommend this establishment, but would highly recommend you try Montana Ale Works!

Management here has been incredibly rude and disinterested in providing quality service. I see why the staff had the same attitude. While I’m not writing a dissertation, where grammar matters, I am trying to quickly make management aware of issues we had that were disappointing. Issues that lost them business that day and in the future. Clearly they see the customer is wrong and they have no interest in trying to take feedback/improve. Sort by lowest reviews, my experience wasn’t unique. Too many excellent options in the area to support this poorly managed business.

We're visiting from out of state and not sure why we stopped in this place last night but I guess we saw the rooftop space and thought it looked like a fun spot. They have great ciders so it's good for drinking, but the food is terrible. We ordered the brussel sprouts which had zero salt or brine and overly greasy. The dry rub wings we expected to be smoked but came out breaded which thoroughly confused us. I wanted to leave after appetizers were unappetizing but my husband was tired and lazy so we ordered dinner (Caeser salad and trio tacos). Let me just say, you'll be fine drinking here. It's what they do well. Go somewhere else for food.

Food is great hands down it’s some of the best bar food in Bozeman. Unfortunately the restaurant is badly unstaffed, our server had way too many tables for having to work the upstairs balcony in the summer, a club soda with a lime took 30 minutes to get to my table. That failure is on management and ownership. The food got out faster! The food (wings and a burger) were great! It’s hot, well seasoned bar food. Also, our sever and host were so kind and polite. Unfortunately that same night, while in the bathroom downstairs, I heard screaming and banging on the bathroom door next to me, which my friend happened to be in. It was an extremely intoxicated bartender. He was still working. Management that night did handle it well by compensating us and sincerely apologizing and I’m excited to go back. However I wanted to let people know that they have a drunk and aggressive bartender on staff. Otherwise, a good time.

I should have looked at the reviews before eating here because it was pretty accurate. We waited 10 minutes at the door before we searched for someone to seat us. We ordered our food all at once and waited 30 minutes for our chip and salsa and then an additional 60 minutes for our burgers and fries. Food was good but we almost walked out before our food arrived with how ridiculous the wait was. Place was barely half full and our friends ate here the prior night and said service was slow and the food took 30-40 minutes for the one appetizer they ordered.

What poor service tonight. Not crowded at all, 25% maybe. Sat upstairs rooftop and server literally engaged with her phone and leaning against the railing looking out to the mountains. Never checked on us, she was not in any mood to do her job. 2 separate tables next to us took care of finding their own silverware and trying to get the attention so they could pay. We are great tippers, but this was definitely a 10% night on the tab.

We really enjoy this place. We do an annual camping trip close by and we always come here for our in town lunch. The only reason I wouldn't give them a five is because of their food. We had an appetizer of nachos that wasn't that good then we had somechips and salsa. The salsa tasted and looked like they straight up open a jar of salsa and dumped it into the dish. Zero flavor no originality. Chips are OK. Pretty cool rooftop bar. They do allow dogs outside, which is one of the reasons we support them. Great staff killer decorations inside. It's just the food they need to work on.
