perfectly adequate truck stop/roadside dining spot. Country fried steak was actually quite good, BLT was standard issue but fresh and tasty. Service was a little slow, but the server was personable and friendly. read more

When our food was brought out we were never checked on again to see if we needed anything The fries were stale and the burgers were overcooked. There was not enough staff to help all the customers. I was not the only one who had to go up and ask for anything else from the waitress. read more

There's something for everyone here Clothing, toys, jewelry, stickers It's a must stop Dog friendly as well read more

I'm giving 3 stars for the interesting bar and scintillating conversation. That being said, I wasn't willing to drop $25 for a burger at their cafe. read more

50,000 Silver Dollar Bar - Myself and a couple of stiffs at the bar. - Bars Near Me

Billboard galore direct you to this giant gift shop, listed on roadside attractions websites due to the novelty of having more than $50,000 in silver dollars adorning the walls of the high-ceilinged Western-style bar, full of casino video games. That's your photo op- a couple of dummy cowboys can be of assistance. (No offense, they are actual dummies there). The gift shop is huge (and crowded, July 3rd). Look for the little bear keychains that "poop" at the register. Make sure they poop before you buy a bunch to take home. One of the bears was constipated. read more

50,000 Silver Dollar Bar - He never blinked. - Bars Near Me

Finally stopped at this place - my aunt and uncle used to stop here all the time when they were truck drivers, taking advantage of the food and the semi parking. Up to over 83,000 silver dollars now! Wonder how long it will take to get to 100,000? A Cold Smoke scotch ale, and elk sliders with fries kept me occupied during my short visit to this bar. The elk wasn't too bad, it had that 'wild' flavor and was slightly dry, but it could have been much worse. The fries were good. Bartender was nice. read more

Can't actually recall how many times I've eaten here, going all the way back to the early 90s. It's always Montana-hearty. We usually stop for breakfast or lunch to/from the hot springs, and it's most definitely filling, filling, filling. I don't go gaga for the kitchy gift shop like the family does, but I'll always peruse a bit while they shop. Ninja Stars, velvet Elvis' and poop shaped coffee mugs just aren't my gig. The folks there are always friendly, and the bar pours a stiff one. I'm not a gambler, but for some reason I will throw a few quarters in one of their keno machines, win ten bucks, and cash out. Happens more often than not. Couldn't do it today, though, with the machines roped off. Oh well, I was grateful the diner was open for grubbin' fare... read more

Food was good, but very overpriced. Definitely a tourist trap. The waitresses are extremely rude so if you feel like overpaying for food you could get somewhere cheaper AND being treated like crap, this is your place. read more

5 stars because they have $79,000 in silver dollars on the wall $20000 more than the name. Worth stopping because they also have a really nice gift shop plus you might get lucky on the slots. Also nothing else around so stop and stretch your legs. read more

Had a great time at the fifty silver dollar bar, Waitress a very intensive and I was impressed that She took our order, remembered what we ordered and corrected misthanks. Before serving us the food, all in all. It was an end and a really cool place to check out. read more

come here every time we are come through. The last two times we have been, has been during lunch. The first time I chalked it up to everyone has a bad day , the food was horrible at the bar. I ordered the salmon and it came out burnt my friend ordered the rainbow trout ( because I had it for dinner one night and it was amazing) lunch not so good. I had to return the salmon because it wasn't even edible. The bartender even admitted that the cook said he let it cook to long but they served it anyway. This lunch again was horrible. i would only recommend eating after lunch when the night cook comes on . He ( wish I could remember his name) is a fantastic cook , you can tell he takes pride in what he serves . The lunch cook I think was a line cook at a fast food joint but not fast , the food came out cold , ordered the French dip. read more

our party of 5 were not happy with our visit there this morning. There was syrup on a chair and on the table. The service was very slow and we weren't recognized as being there. i asked my companion if we were invisible. My friend app a waitress and she said in an unfriendly manner that a waiter would be with us soon and we still waited. They were not busy. Finally a gal came to take our order. Our drinks were slow to arrive. There were no napkins or tableware until we asked for it and this was after our food arrived. It was really a strange experience as it seemed they were trying to see how bad our experience could be. I had eaten there in the past when the service was great but that has changed. read more

My uncle and I stopped here a long time ago when we were coming back from Wyoming. When I planned a motorhome trip with my dad to bring him to his MSU Alumni homecoming game, I wanted to take him here. In researching it, I found two things. 1. It wasn't getting good reviews and 2. It had free RV parking! So off we went. Driving a motorhome from Portland Oregon to Montana in October is a bit sketchy as the weather forecast kept changing on us but we made it to the $50,000. Low and behold, no one was using the free Rv park in October so we had our choice of any spot. Of course we picked one with power as those are limited and first come first serve. The RV park is anything but fancy, but just as it's name implies. The keyword being PARK. Anyway we were glad to have it! We pulled in, plugged in and off we went for dinner. Now, all the way from portland I kept hoping that our service at the $50,000 would be friendly and the food would be good. I was a bit nervous walking in as the place was pretty deserted as it is the off season, and I kept thinking that when the waitress got to our table, the only thing left to eat would be peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with an attitude. However, I was pleasantly wrong.... Our server was super friendly and talkative and the menu was loaded with options! Dad was buying cause I did all the driving so I splurged on the Ribeye steak that came with baked potato, green beans and I chose the soup to go with: Cost $18 Steak was well seasoned and cooked to order. It was very tender as well. Baked potato cake with butter and sour Cream. Perfect! Green beans: Now, here is something to discuss. I really do like can green beans over fresh ones. I don't know why... probably because I was brought up On the canned ones so that was just fine. They were canned but the seasoned them with something that was really good so I was happy. I drank 2 cold beers as well and the server was very attentive throughout. Soup was really good! Anduele sausage and rice in a brown sauce of some sort. Very tasty! Dad had the fish sandwich and he loved it too. He said the French fries were the best he ever tasted! He's 84 so he knows what he's talking about! We didn't do the gift shop as our plan was to come back in the morning for breakfast and browse. However, the gas station and restaurant were closed when we got ready to go at 8:30. We were really disappointed as we wanted breakfast and to look around some more but wherever. It is the off season so maybe that's how they do things. Anyway, stop hear and enjoy. Leave your pre conceived notions at the door and just enjoy all this place has to offer. Don't bash them because your latte didn't taste like Starbucks or your Burger didn't taste like McDonalds. This place is a gem and I plan on stopping on our way back! read more

This is always a must stop since I was a kid traveling with my parents and Now traveling with my husband and kids . My kids love the gift shop and I have to say I love it to. Such friendly people and very helpful. You never know what you are going to find. We stayed the night in the hotel and ate at the bar for dinner. Our server Bernie was more then amazing. She was so nice and let us have our puppy at the bar. I did not want to leave her in the room so she told me to go get her and enjoy my dinner in the bar. Bernie makes a wonderful Huckleberry drink. Very tasty. We also had the rib eye steak. Great price. I enjoyed the entire experience of the evening. Next morning my husband and I went for breakfast. Well not the experience of the evening for sure. We sat in the bar for about 10 minutes watching a server stock the cooler and clean the back bar without greeting us. After a 10 minutes she walked up to the table and handed us a menu and said she was stocking self's and was not ignoring us. Well it sure felt that way. It was 7:55am and we ordered a few bloody Mary's. The server Rita snapped at me and said well you aren't going to get that now we don't serve that until after 8am. OK I have no clue of the rules. She could have said I will be more then happy to get that when it is 8am. She had complete attitude and was so rude. I just folded my menu. got up and told my husband I will be in the car. Never in a million years have I had such an experience. I am giving this 4 stars based on the evening experience. Had the morning gone better I would have given them 5. Lesson learned if you are having a bad day don't take it out on your customers. I emailed the staff wanting to speak with a manager. I hope to hear from them so I can let them know how they could improve. read more

Well, second time stopping here for breakfast. We figured we would give them a second try after the debacle last year. Nice to see they have stayed consistent in their poor service in the restaurant. Food was cold, and took about an hour to get. Restaurant had only nine tables filled. Would hate to see what it is like on a busy weekend. read more

Not a place to eat as we are still waiting after 55 mins. Then they didn't bother to check on us to at least keep drinks filled. Crowd was not very many as there were a lot of empty tables so can't give them that excuse! Ok received my Philly Steak Sammie (stay away you have been warned) bread was doughy, chop peppers and onions could hardly see and the meat was precooked over all not worth the time, flavor or money spent stopping here! Rest of family food was just as bad! read more

Do not even think of eating here. soup was canned, potatoes we instant, chicken fried steak preformed and frozen and the burned it. Toast was burnt and served with chopped up broccoli. One bite and left to get food elsewhere. McDonalds would have been better. Very unfriendly workers read more

It may be weird, but now I have to make sure the bathrooms are clean. We stopped twice in just over a week, and they were absolutely sparkling clean both times.

Sometimes (when your hungry) you just can't make it all the way to Idaho OR Washington. When that happens, do what we did and pull over at this fun little restaurant. Everything on the menu tastes like yummy home cooked meals your mom would make. I had the BEST chicken fried steak I have had in A LONG TIME. If my husband would drive me the 2 hours I would make this one of our regular outings but alas, I must wait for our next road trip to Spokane. I guarantee I will be back. read more

Yes, it is a tourist stop on the I90 but might as well check it out if you are passing through. The bar and walls are covered in silver dollars. It is interesting to see. The bar isn't too large, but was worth stopping in and enjoying a local beer. The bar is surrounded by a giant gift shop where you can buy bar souvenirs, plus bull horns, funny t-shirts, artwork of Elvis mounted on wood and many Montana novelties. It was about an hour and half from Missoula, but worth the trip out to check it out. read more

Ugh! They changed the restaurant! Why??? Used to be reasonably priced with hearty portions. The chicken fried steak was great and they had a breakfast buffet and HUGE cinnamon rolls. Now you have to order at the counter like a freakin' McDonald's! Pancakes were burnt and the prices are ridiculous for what they serve. The store is filled with inappropriate items, not family friendly, and most of it is made in China cr@p. And they still haven't done anything about the gross mold and rot in the bathroom. read more

Whenever traveling though Montana, this is a must stop! Lot of touristy stuff to look at here and buy, and of course a decent selection of Hucklerry stuff! We ALWAYS stop here!

Plenty of things to spend your money! lol I would most certainly recommend a stop here! read more

From Idaho, it's just 1hr. away so their big billboard ad says, but it seems less than 1hr. away, even though there's highway constructions, but we were curious what this gift shop has to offer. It also said, the biggest gift shop in Montana! We shall see. . . Well, I guess it must be, they have a lot of stuff, made in China, India, as well as local crafts, for all ages! I found 2 that was worth buying, but we wanted to drive back to Wallace before it gets too dark. That sure was fun! read more

the service at this bar really needs to be improved. The seating person was not at the front desk for over 10 minutes. She responded that normally they have a waiting list. REALLY the food was mediocre my chicken pot pie tasted like Costco. The fries were cold on delivery. Our service person was more interested in blabbing with a coworker in front of us than serving us. these aremanagement issues. The management is asleep. Get it together read more

They actually have over 100,000 silver dollars now. If you average the price per coin at $50, the collection is worth over a half million

Great tourist trap -- lots of souvenirs and junk you don't need. The bar is dark and unremarkable, other than the namesake silver dollars. Avoid the restaurant -- simple classic diner food crossed with fast food, and it's overpriced. read more

This is a great stop for all the reasons mentioned, but, if you want to take a great nature walk, step next door to the Sevenac Historic Tree Nursery!

Decent size restaurant way over priced for the small amount of food they give you I paid 17.00 for a pork chop dinner described at 2 juicy pork chops that was thinner then flank steak and dryer than a raisins ass there servers seemed friendly mines just happen to be so attentive forgot to bring me silverware never offered/ refilled my drink. That was at the end of table. Terrible service definitely not worth the money they charging read more

I like this place! Silver dollars are all over the walls in the bar! I think there are almost 70,000 of em. Small casino in bar with outdated slot machines. Very nice and huge gift shop. All kinds of cool stuff including knives of every kind. Swords as well! Cheap jewelry of every type. Toys, shirts, hats really anything you could imagine and then some. Restaurant on premises too. It is not that bad actually. This place is worth a gander! Grab yourself a drink to go and some useless gifts and be on your way!! FYI there motel and RV park! It has everything!! read more

If you've ever drove from Missoula to Spokane you have, without exception, been bombarded by the signs for this place. Most of them still advertise the place as the $10,000 Silver Dollar Bar. In actuality they really have about 70,000 silver dollars hanging on the walls. All have been "donated" by travelers, including myself. After traveling this corridor for almost 25 years I finally made my first stop last winter after snowboarding at Lookout Pass. My only regret is not having stopped a little sooner. This place is completely loaded with crap. 30% Flea Market, 25% Grandma's Basement, 45% who knows what, but 100% manufactured in China. Once you navigate your way through this shrine to novelties, make your way to the bar. The hot buttered rum has a homemade recipe and dare I say that it is the best I've ever had? Here's the highlight to our visit. The bar was empty except for us so we got plenty of quality time with the bartender. After the normal chit chat and several raunchy jokes from her, she proceeded to serenade us with a few Patsy Cline hits. What a voice! Then, with a blank face, she said, "Hey, wanna see me deep throat a Pepsi can?" Funny, I thought to myself, because I was just thinking the same thing! Because you can't answer this question with anything but "Hell Yeah!" the show continued. She pulled her top teeth out (WTF!!!!) and down went the can! What a trip, can't wait to go back! read more

We always stop at the 50,000 Silver Dollar Bar anytime we are driving through or back from Montana. Go in and get yourself a bunch of junk you didn't know you wanted! Last time, I came out with a belly button lint brush, a little box with a love bug inside, a cuss bank, a tumbler, a pint glass, some dice games, and a buffalo Montana hat! And if that isn't enough, you can add to the recently-over 50,000 silver dollars all over the bar walls. When you come back they will show you where they hung your silver dollar, with your name(s). WOW! The bartenders have always been nice, and the food is amazing- especially after a 72 hour road warrior type weekend. I actually love this place though, it is a must stop on the I-90 corridor. read more

Yuck, this place was terrible. 1. The Merchandise: There's as much cheap crap from China in here as you could possibly imagine. There are tiny "Indian" trinkets like bows and arrows, dream catchers, and other random crap that is offensive to any real Indian. There's a lot of artwork that looks like it was made by the guys who were painting animals onto the sides of rapist vans in the late 80's. 2. The Food Here, you can pay $11 for a plate of nachos that have liquid cheese and liquid beef drizzled all over them. They sort of look like nachos that you would get at 7-11, but at least at 7-11 I can spend an extra dollar and get some solid meat for them (hot dog anyone?). The "condiments" for them came in little plastic cups, and the amount of water that had separated from the sour cream makes me think they make condiments once a month. I kind of wanted to leave and not eat this crap, but I was hungry, and didn't have any other good option. 3. The bathrooms After eating those nasty nachos, I thought I should head to the bathroom in case my body rejected them. While sitting on the toilet, I noticed that the whole wall moved whenever anybody sat down on another toilet (even in the women's room on the other side of the wall). I demand a certain amount of stability in my environment in order to successfully use the restroom, and the rollercoaster ride on their toilet actually made my situation worse. I guess the silver dollars were kind of cool, but that bar smells and looks like an ash tray. read more

As a Washingtonian who frequently visits Montana, this place has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. The food is not amazing, think Denny's with less selection, but it's the experience that you go for, not the food. There's a bar, restaurant, and a giant gift shop. The bar is filled with crusty old dudes. The restaurant is filled with hungry patrons and spot-on their game servers. And the gift shop is filled with the most glorious crap in the world. On my last visit, I purchased a cedar box with an epic wolf painting on the top, and a knife with a snarling wolf carved in the blade, all for under $12 dollars. There are also Kachina dolls, toy guns and bow and arrow sets that seem like they should be illegal by now, and pretty much one million different types of cedar boxes. It's a must see! read more

PARENTS BEWARE! I'm actually sad to be writing this review as I remember stopping here many times when i was a kid, but I'm afraid the gift shop is now sprinkled throughout with so many inappropriate items, many with flat out vile profanity on them, I cannot recommend that anyone should bring their kids here. :-( If they would just section off part of the store for all their "adult" items and pot-smoking stuff, it might not be so bad... Please make your gift shop Family Friendly again!! Unfortunately the food in the diner was mostly sub-par too. One of us had the bacon cheeseburger with fries which seemed fine, but my meatloaf sandwich was a dry chunk of meatloaf stuck in between a dry hoagie with no mayo or other condiments. It did come with a generous cup of thick brown gravy for the fries and i guess for dipping the sandwich, just not my style... The third person in our party had the trout dinner, which wasn't bad, just a bit too salty and a little dry -- however the disappointing sides with it included way overcooked canned green beans (no longer very green) and a rice pilaf clearly made from a box. read more

50,000 Silver Dollars take up a lot more space than you'd think. Each dollar is labeled with the name of the person who contributed it. Although the bar is impressive, I can't think of anything more to say about it. The gift shop however.... was a lot of fun. It was good that we stopped because we were able to acquire reasonably priced gifts for all of our loved ones. The selection was fantastic! Definately worth a stop, especially considering that there isn't anything else to stop for for miles and miles... read more
