It was a very nice Montany restruant. It wasn't too fancy but also wasn't casual. The food was delicious and came out fast. Everything was very fairly priced.

This is my third time to dry fly. I won't count the first time I went because it was 6 months ago when they first opened.
The inside of the place looks great but the atmosphere is a bit of a head-scratcher. It’s part log cabin steakhouse, part outdoor enthusiast’s, fly fishing theme , and part sports bar. The staff uniforms are horrible and don’t seem to match any of the above?? Each time I've been there the TV at the bar is playing a football game, that's a repeat from 5-6 years ago even when it was an actual NFL playoff game day?? The chairs at the bar are uncomfortable and a complete miss for eating at the bar. A lot of this leaves the restaurant’s true 'theme' a mystery to me. I know it should be about the food, but really it's about the customer experience, and all of this takes away from that before you get to the food.
We have gone and tried the burgers, wings, trout dip, prime rib, and a few other items. I thought when they originally opened they had fried chicken dinner special but we have never found that?
I’ve tried both the standard double cheeseburger and the bison burger. Unfortunately, neither lived up to the 'best in town' potential. Both were dominated by an oversized bun that completely overwhelmed the meat; you’re mostly eating bread rather than the burger itself, it was nothing special. As for the side salad, the blue cheese dressing was consistently thin and watered-down. If you aren't a fan of bitter spring mixes (radicchio and red leaf), I should have remembered this from my first visit because I hate that spring mix, I suggest skipping the greens here.
Trout dip. The trout dip is really good and well thought out, but still a little bit of a head scratcher. It is served with Ritz crackers? Just google Ritz crackers and see why they're banned in many other countries! Serve them with chips, small toasted garlic chips, or a million other things would be better than Ritz crackers with this dip.
I was so excited to see prime rib on the menu, (only Friday nights) especially since the Club Tavern in town has changed hands and wrecked the size cut and flavor of their prime rib! The prime rib is cut great it's thick, like more than an inch thick, and looks delicious! The whipped twice baked potatoes that come with it are pretty good. They need a little more flavor and may be a little bit larger portion. Again, It comes with a salad with watered down blue cheese dressing. The prime rib looked perfect. It was actually a little dry and not soft and hard to cut. So disappointing, I don't know if they're finishing it in a microwave, or they're cooking it to rare and not getting to that point where the prime rib marbling really gets soft and lets the steak release it's juices . I was not there late in the day so I didn't get the last piece of prime rib. I probably got one of the first pieces of the day. and it just wasn't soft, juicy and flavorful like prime rib should be.
Against my better judgement , I am going to go back and give them one more try and I'm gonna get the prime rib just to see if maybe it was a one time thing. But overall, myself and the people that I have gone with have been underwhelmed by the food and the overall experience.

On a whim I decided to try Dry Fly Saloon for dinner while in town, and I am so glad I did! I ordered the Southwest Chopped Salad with steak and it was fabulous! Perfect steak/sweet potato combo with a little almond crunch, and avocado ranch. Get. This. Salad.

What a great place to go for a Sunday brunch! Great drinks from the bar, amazing friendly, efficient staff, and excellent food. Love the warm country ambiance.

We stayed at Field & Stream and ended up eating at The Dry Fly multiple times during our visit. Breakfast was amazing every time—such a great restaurant to have right on site. The staff is incredible, and we truly never had a bad meal. Highly recommend whether you’re staying at Field & Stream or just looking to venture out for a great meal in Bozeman!

Good hearty fresh breakfast and fun lodge atmosphere but slow service (granted it was a holiday morning). Would recommend!

Absolute hidden gem! Food was incredibly fresh (think farm to table) and the juice was fresh squeezed. Staff is very friendly and accommodating and if you’re a drinker, their selection is extensive. Smoked trout dip was tasty and hubby had the breakfast bowl with sausage, so fresh and delicious!

I went there for the Thanksgiving dinner.And they didn't have it , but the food I got instead was good.
Our dining experience was excellent thanks to our warm and receptive waiter, Calvin. He was STELLAR! Get the salted caramel ice cream AND the pork chop!

Go here and be impressed!!!!!!
If you found this place, do yourself a favor and stop on in. It's brand new with an authentic retro northernwoods cabin feel right out of the 1950s. The wait staff has incredible uniforms, so much so we had to grab our own from the gift shop!
The wait staff was super friendly and welcoming. The food was incredible. We had the smoked trout dip to start off and it was the best I have ever had and I've had a lot but by far this was the best. Big chunks of fish and incredible flavor.
The double cheeseburger was great. The 12 oz bone in pork chop was amazing and I had Brussels sprouts but these were amazing. Lightly baked with incredible flavor.
The cookie in the cast iron pan with the ice cream was more than enough for three dudes.
We will be coming back for sure for the food and the friendly staff!
Even the manager Hannah came out to say high and we grabbed a photo with the friendly wait staff!

We just discovered this cozy and very clean restaurant. We had breakfast last week and returned for lunch the following week. Both experiences were better than expected. The burgers were cooked the way we ordered and the French Onion Soup was perfect. A must try.

The Atmosphere @Dryfly Saloon was awesome. It was quiet enough where we could have a conversation and not have to be overly loud. The service was Amazing fast and friendly, Our Bartender Diana was awesome she helped us select our drinks which where fantastic. We ordered food which came out fast and hot. We ordered the poutine as our appatizer the portion was great and the flavors were amazing. Ordered the shaved prime rib sandwich again great portions the food and flavors were top notch. We will definitely be coming back to try more items on the menu Sarah S. was also amazing the whole staff was very friendly and attentive
