This place deserves nothing less than a 5. Great food, great service at the table and bar, great atmosphere. Will definitely be back next time I'm in town. read more

Kuddos to the server. I think the fish and chips I was served tonight was the worst meal I have ever been served in my life. It was completely burned and the fish had disintegrated. There was no fish! Even given a 50% discount, I paid $9 for 5 french fries. It will be a long time before I try an entre there again as well as recommend it to anyone. How disappointing! I am mad at myself for paying a penny for that meal. read more

Servers and bartenders are always so friendly! Food comes out hot/cold and in a timely manner. Great portions and everything has good flavor! There is lots of natural light and it's so clean in there! read more

I got picked up from the airport and this is really close - just down the hill and one of your first options. And a good one. They were busy, so it took a couple minutes to confirm we could seat ourselves and get menus, but the ensuing service was good. I had the Honey Sriracha Chicken Sandwich - and it's a massive stack of chicken, slaw, and pear, drenched in a nicely spicy-sweet sauce. Delicious, if MESSY (be prepared). The sauce was mild to me, but would be appropriately spicy for most. The honey balances the Sriracha vinegarness, as does the pear - really balanced sandwich! Sweet potato fries were super hot and nicely seasoned - another win. Paired with Jeremiah Johnson Scotch Ale, and ngl, I made a great combo. She had The Grizzly, which is essentially a smoked brisket French dip, and the brisket was good, but the au jus was more thick and greasy than expected - could've been made into a thin gravy pretty easily - was still given a thumbs up though. We'll be back to try the steak salad and we saw how ginormous the carne asada fries were! read more

I ate here for the first time yesterday and really enjoyed the experience. The food was good. The selection of beers on tap was good. The vibe was good. The service was excellent. My girlfriend was catching a flight out of town yesterday and it's super close and convenient to the airport. Not the fanciest place in Billings but a great spot to grab a beer and some good food. I'm looking forward to coming back and checking out the roof patio this Summer! read more

I had a chicken sandwich that had a sirachi coleslaw on it and Parmesan fries. Fries were great the slaw on the sandwich was great. But, the chicken was so tough and ... it was dry not chewable! When I told the wait staff...no reply! I will never go to that establishment again! read more

It's a brewery, not out to impress or reinvent the wheel, just serve hearty food at a reasonable price. The patio gives a nice elevated view of Billings, a hard commodity to come by. The food was fine but the competition is harsh for brewery food as they're abundant in Billings. The fish tacos were a big highlight and this is a great place if you just want a decent meal at a decent spot. read more

I really liked this place. The food was pretty delicious. The cheese curds here were so much better than the ones you get at Meadowlark Brewing. They're packed with garlic and the ranch you dip them in is pretty great. My girlfriend got the steak salad. The steak was cooked just how she asked, medium. The salad was full of dark green leaves. If you've read a review by me, it grinds my gears to see nothing buy light green/white iceberg lettuce in a salad. So, good job here 406, using nutrient dense and flavorful lettuce! I got the pesto chicken sandwich. This was really delicious. The chicken was pretty tender (could have been a little more tender), but it was definitely 5 steps up from the chicken sandwiches served at Diamond X brewing, which are just dry little fillets. The beer and cocktail selection was pretty decent. Our table of three had no problem finding a beverage that we liked and ordered more than one of. We ate out on the patio and enjoyed the environment since it was so sunny outside. The service was just slow enough to notice, but it won't stop me from returning. I'd highly recommend this place if you've been eating at the other mentioned places. I kind of hate directly comparing the food at these places, but for all of these plates to cost the same, they should be made of the same quality and flavor or the prices should be cheaper at the other restaurants. I'd gladly pay the $60 bill for 2 meals and 4 alcoholic beverages again at the 406. read more

Six pieces of chicken on a $16 salad. They had a served an appropriate amount of chicken on their salad in the past, even two pieces more would've made it look like they weren't being super cheap. Prices are HIGH for what your served, update*** the bill reflected 14 so ... pretty weird. read more

The garlic fries Are really good and our server Lexie is a sweetheart. Good food and good service

Food was great and so was our waiter but it was a little slow. Would go back again though

Fish and chips were poorly cooked. It was fried too long (looked extremely burnt) and was very barely edible. Why would they even serve it? The waitress was pleasant but acted surprised when I mentioned that it was burnt which was very obvious looking at it. Tots were not much better :( read more

The most burnt tacos I've ever had. Overpriced too. I'll never come back to this establishment again.

ONLINE MENU IS NOT CURRENT January 24th, 2023. We scouted several area restaurants, looking to order dinner while my husband was in the hospital. We were very excited by the online menu shown for this establishment. We had our hearts set on the calamari appetizer, my husband was going to order the Catch of the Day with roasted vegetables, and I had decided on the Clams and Linguine. After arriving at the restaurant we found that none of these options were offered on the current menu. Several other meals we had previously viewed were also emitted from the new menu. We ended up opting for the cheese curds, fish tacos, and fish and chips. Over all, average pub grub style food. **EDIT** ADDING PICS OF CURRENT MENU read more

My son picked this place to try for dinner during our 1st visit to Billings. This frontier-themed sports bar supports local high school and college teams (but no Rocky Mountain College jersey on the wall??) which is great and plenty of tvs all around - making it easy for us to watch the National Championship game (which was a blowout by halftime #GoDawgs!). Our party ordered 3 items and sides, which did come out promptly even during a major sporting event, albeit on a Monday night. The Grilled Chicken Breast sandwich was nicely done, where the chicken was not too dry, but also not extremely juciy either. They either bake their own buns or get them from a good local bakery fresh each day. The double burger was big - 2 large, hand-formed patties which were really good and juicy, and it hit me... why are so many burgers places so good in Billings? Answer: Montana grass-fed free-range beef and a meat processing plant about 2 miles north of downtown. Freshness matters. So why only 2 stars... here is where the experience and meal goes downhill... the AWFUL beef brisket. Experienced grillers know brisket needs to be slow cooked for AT LEAST 8 hours (preferably 12) and undercooked brisket is tough to bite off and far chewy-er than it should be. Another way to identify undercooked brisket is meat with lots of fat on it The reason for the slow long cooking time is to allow all the fat to melt, and infuse all the meat so that you get juicy tender, cant-be-sliced-because-it falls-apart brisket. Well, this beef brisket sandwich was served with uniformly sliced strips of tough, chewy and very fatty brisket. The meat was a MAJOR disappointment. The side of Buffalo Tater Tots I tried were encased in a powdery, crunchy cocoon of Buffao Powder (no sauce) and NOT in a good way. The watery blue cheese was the only thing that made the tots edible. With a half-eaten sandwich in front of me and most of the tots still on the plate, i politely let the waiter know that my meal was really not good at all and exactly what was wrong with the meal. He casually apologized, began clearing plates, and ask if anyone needed a refill on their waters or drinks. At a MINIMUM, I was hoping that he would speak to a Manager - that they would come talk to us to see what can be done. I was hoping he would offer me to order something else to replace the really bad meal. Or at least to take that meal off the bill. Nope... nada. If you go to 406 to watch a game with some drinks, the burges seems to be the go-to menu item. Stay away from the brisket at all costs. They should remove this from the menu since they clearly don't know how to prepare it properly. Try the Buffalo tater tots at-your-own-risk, and don't expect anything in the way of customer service to attempt to right a bad experience. I I believe in supporting a business that supports the local community so I might stop in when I am in town looking for just a burger and a beer. And likely WILL seek out the owner next time to share my initial experience. Small businesses often never fix what they don't know is a problem. read more

I thought the place was clean and had a good look to it. It was easy to be seated and has a nice outdoor space. The attached picture was supposedly a fish taco on a corn tortilla. It may have been the smallest tortilla I have even seen. All of that color and yet little flavor. We specifically tried the place out after seeing photos of fish tacos here. Needless to say, we were catfished. The carne asada tacos were ok, simple, and had a lot of meat. The service was abysmal at best and the place was very loud. Literally patron after patron yelling their conversations at one another. Parking is tight at best and not optimal in a large vehicle. read more

I can not say enough good things about this restaurant. The food is delicious, the staff is fantastic, the portions are HUGE. We've tried most of the menu and have yet to find anything we don't love. If you're in town, definitely put 406 on your list of places to eat. One note, this place is a local favorite, so it's busy and they don't take reservations. There's lots of seating but keep in mind you might have to wait a bit before you sit down. Having said that, I promise, it's worth it. read more

I ordered fish and chips. It comes with 1 side. Guess what? It does NOT come with chips! They need to call it fish and 1 side. Extremely ridiculous. Talk about poor advertising! Will not be back! Service was very good, however. read more

Not a memorable food experience, but nothing to call out specifically on that front. Location is good but not my first choice.

we finally made it here! The service was good and friendly. They were out of this special bourbon for an old fashioned, so no review possible. Nice beer selection. A bit loud in there and it wasn't crowded. Our food was pretty good, but not spectacular. My sweet potato fries were limp and warmish. Not crispy at all. Looks like it good be a fun party spot with a good location near MSU. It was good, but we're in no hurry to go back read more

We got into town late in the eve on a Sunday. I didn't expect many places to be open, especially anywhere serving good food. The hotel desk lady suggested the 406. Kudus to her! There weren't many folks in here as expected. We were greeted immediately and sat in the booth of our choosing. This is a clean nice place that is staffed by some friendly helpful folks. I had a very nice, and big, side salad and a big order of spicy wings. Great choice! They were excellent, and the salad was crispy fresh. My wife had a chicken taco salad that she thoroughly destroyed. We were happy campers after a 10 hr road trip. 406 will be a great place to come to on our next trip thru. read more

The 406 has always been a staple when I hit the airport to leave it return. Last night was a different experience. Did the place change hands? I've had the Grizzly brisket with carmelized onions. And it was outstanding. Last night was totally different. Weird taste, bad onions. I'm not even sure it was brisket. My wife's carne asada fajitas weren't very good either. Service was very good. read more

After a long flight in from out of state and landing i found this incredible restaurant. The beer selection was delicious and had boasting sweet citrus notes that made Sunday Night Football that much better. For lunch, the carne asada fries were a revelation, surpassing my West Coast expectations with their perfect crispiness and unmatched flavor. Service was impeccable--our server was incredibly attentive, ensuring our glasses were never empty and our dining experience was top-notch. 406 Kitchen & Tap Room seamlessly blends charm with outstanding customer service. A must-try for any culinary explorer seeking a delightful twist on the classics. read more

Amazing steak salad! We were visiting my son and his family. 406 was so good, friendly staff, clean, we ate there twice. Will definitely go back when we are in the area. read more

Got here at 6:22 PM and it is now 7:12 PM and still absolutely no food. We ordered a sandwich and fried shrimp! Doesn't take a rocket scientist to build a club sandwich and fry some shrimp. Waitress has come by twice and told us they're just waiting on the shrimp. I guess someone is out catching them? The service and overall customer satisfaction with restaurants in Billings is literally horrendous! Food arrived at the one hour mark. No one brought napkins, condiments or anything else. Had to walk to the bar to get napkins. Zero tip for this waitress. Tempura shrimp was frozen and nothing good read more

Food was fantastic and beer was good with a good selection for the various preferences of our 12 adults in the group.

Hold the salt...their bar food is usually tasty, but last Sunday pm the beer cheese soup & brisket sand were soooooo salty....we tried diluting the soup with water, but it was inedible. Service: Adam, our server was excellent!, so accommodating. He tried to fix the salty soup issue, offered other side items, finally discounted our soup from the bill. He checked back several times..I had fish & soup instead of fish & chips...my bad. The fish, however, was cooked perfectly..not overcooked or over breaded. It came with malt vinegar packets, which I like, but no tartar sauce...server Adam checked & reported the kitchen was out of Tarter sauce, they were "making more but it might take some time"...I finally asked for a side of mayo & pickles so I could make my own. Someone from the kitchen arrived with a side of tartar sauce. Ambiance...we were inside at high top near windows. The balcony looked inviting, but was full. The rooftop when they get it going will be amazing!! Potentially, this place could be the bomb, but could also just bomb. It can be soooo noisy...one area where conversation could happen would be welcome! We'll return to see how things evolve...& for the excellent service. Thanks Adam! Also enjoyed running into a fave Billings athlete who works there as well..you know who you are K..so good to see you! read more

What a great place to grab some great food and a couple drinks! We visit our daughter that is going to college RMC down the street from here. I was hesitant at first, as 406 is also a casino. But I sure am glad we tried here! Now it's a must every time we come to Billings! Still waiting for my 406 decal! read more

First time visiting. Food was very good and waitstaff was friendly and courteous. And that ends the good portion of this review. I sat down at a table on the patio. It took 13 minutes before waiter came out to take drink order. Got my drink in about 5 minutes. 5 minutes later I placed food order. It too 43 minutes to get my food. Way to long. It didn't look that busy to me but maybe my idea of busy is different from theirs. On a side note I overheard waiter telling another table that he has seen many cars get bumped in the parking lot and people drove away without leaving contact info or trying to find the car owner. read more

The beer was tasty, our server was very nice, it wasn't incredible loud in the place and that's about it. Every single person in my party had a massive stomachache all night after eating here. The food was medicore at best and cold. Like this hasn't even been sitting under a heater at all cold. The wings were tasty though. If I ever find myself here again, I would just recommend the wings and beer. That's it. read more

One of my all time favorite restaurants. I have traveled all over the world thanks to the military, and the 406 is easily in my top 5 favorite restaurants. read more

Awesome service speedy but delicious lunch a bit $$$ friendly staff and people. I've been back 3 times. Also by far best looking sweetest bartender in town. On point for sure. Parking is easy in the back just gotta use the stairs. read more

Pretty good spot--expensive for this type of faire and for the equivalent places in town. Nearly every appetizer was $9 or more. Hamburgers were $15. And they probably would be considered gourmet, but it was a stretch. The beers on tap were great and I was extremely happy with the choices and the idea of them being local. The atmosphere was nice and the waitstaff great. Accommodating, helpful and attentive. I'm not sure this menu will last with the prices. But I've been wrong before. read more

First of all, I never go into a restaurant wanting to make a bad review. My family and I went to the 406 Taproom specifically for the wings. We were seated by the most obnoxious large and loud party in the restaurant. Ok, it's a bar. Then they tell us they are out of wings. Total bummer, ok it happens. We order a dip with pita chips, but they are out of pita chips. The first beer I wanted they were also out of. It seamed that they are out of everything. Our server was nice and apologetic but had too many tables. The dip was actually awesome, but the other food was very mediocre. Then to top it off, they NO LONGER honor a military discount BECAUSE STAFF abused it in the past and applied a military discount to many people that were not veterans. I did enjoy the ambiance and the beer I did have. read more

The food is really bad... something has changed they used to have really good food. On top of being really poor quality food it is very expensive. Very disappointed! read more

Came in randomly. Had some amazing Buffalo tater tots definitely wanna come back to try something else from the menu. I had the razzelberry salad with shrimp: taste was ok but the salad was soggy . My husband had the shrimp tacos with the Buffalo tots and he loved it. read more
