Came here with my 3 buddies and honestly I keep wanting to call it flappers. I like flippers better though because it sounds like a dolphin. We hung with our uncle here. He was telling us some crazy stories about drugs. Yeah it was awesome. I don't do them but I like to hear when my uncles talk about them. I kind of wish they had more slot machines, my friend Cole says. He is a feen. The food, banging. Sweet potato fries + ranch = uncle and me happy. read more

Flipper's Casino - This is the table we ate on - Casinos Near Me - Missoula, Montana

Great times at Flippers in Missoula. I played here twice and met some great folks here. I'll be back any time I'm in Missoula, hopefully I can book a show here read more

I had heard that the burgers here are a local favorite and I was intrigued by a burger in a casino so I stopped by to try it out. It's a casino but it's also really a sports bar with lots of tables and TVs. There are pool tables, arcade games, and pinball machines. The casino itself isn't super big either; it just takes up the right side of the restaurant when you walk in. They also have a small parking lot for customers only which is nice because the street parking can be full from the other businesses in the area. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger ($10) with tater tots which do not cost extra to change. The tater tots were surprisingly super crispy on the outside and airy on the inside. The bacon cheeseburger was pretty good as well and also pretty good "for a casino". I would definitely suggest getting the tots! read more

See all

Timmy & chase were super attentive and full of good energy, burgers came quick and flippers always has good vibes!!!

Good burger fun atmosphere would have been five stars, but the waitress the took by order was rude and didn't know what a bloody burger was. An read more

Truly a gem of Missoula! Ordered 2 cheeseburgers with tots & a pitcher of PBR for 41$ plus 8$ tip. Played, in my opinion, the best pinball game in town, Godzilla. Service is always consistently friendly & professional. read more

I stopped in for the first time today and ended up ordering a burger. First off, the bar looks and smells clean. The staff were pleasant and easy to deal with. The burger was easily one of the best in town. I was seated where I could see the gentleman making my lunch, which was done with care. So good!! Thank you all for a pleasant experience. read more

It's good for a stop.in sometimes but my girlfriend was not treated well by the staff. I tried to call and be chill but was met with attitude and defensiveness. Be safe and know that some places are not your spot. read more

Flipper's Casino is a place that caters to two distinct crowds. In the evenings, the clientele is that which one would expect to see in any neighborhood bar in Missoula: working joes and students enjoying liquid libations, maybe a little bit of gambling or catching the game on the tube- generally having a good time. However, in the mornings, they should hang a sign on their door that reads "Haven't quite reached rock bottom? Let us help!" When Flipper's first opened its doors, a cloud of controversy swirled over the establishment- first it was revealed to have ties to individuals with "organized crime" attached to their names, then there was the issue of their early-morning door openings along with a "rise and shine" special which neighbors felt would attract the "wrong" type of people. A few decades later, not much has changed: the mob ties are gone, but the early-morning drink specials remain, attracting a special kind of patron: the one that's spiraling downwards in a drunken, burning, screaming death-plunge, but hasn't quite reached the point of bedrock impact which occurs when they are only allowed in last-resort drinking establishments or have to find their way into a 12-step meeting Still, the honesty is refreshing. In a world where both alcohol vendors and manufacturers attempt to display an illusion of sophistication, sexual prowess, and the usual lies of insecurity, telling you to "drink responsibly," it's nice to have someone come along and shout from the mountain, "Hey, who wants to get crawling blind drunk?"... Even if it is for the wrong reasons. So regardless of whether you're a working stiff just unwinding after work, a human-shaped bridge burner hurtling towards oblivion, Flipper's has a seat waiting for you. read more

I love Flippers for three reasons: 1) the burgers. Get them with tots. They are superb. 2) This is the only place you can now get the Kettlehouse Lake Missoula Amber. It's called Roscoes Amber and Flippers gets it because they were the very first bar to take the Kettlehouse's beer when the Kettlehouse first started. 3) There are no hipsters or students here! This is just a regular, small town, local bar with amazing food and great beer. read more

Hands down, the best cheeseburger in Missoula. No, the bar doesn't serve liquor. But they do have Roscoe's Red by the pitcher, which is made by Kettlehouse exclusively for this fabulous little dive. read more

Burgers was pretty darn good at $10.00. It is more of a sports bar than a casino. Nice bartenders.

I love flippers I love their food and their genuine good staff, but this is my fourth time ordering from them and my order being forgotten. As genuine as the staff is the service is spotty, I feel you're at a 50-50 chance of getting good service or the worst Service. At this point and writing this review I will not be going there again. Unfortunately the food is not worth being forgotten or blown off as many times as I tried to order or get anything from there. read more

Great Dive. I used to practically live in Flippers when I lived up the block. It's usually pretty low key on weeknights, and fairly crowded on weekends, but not crazy crowded. They stay open all night, so you can play pool or hang out after the bars close. Also they have Big Buck Hunter Pro if you can get it first. When my roommates and I didn't have cable, we used to come to Flipper's to watch new episodes of South Park. They were totally ok with us nerding out in front of the TV...as long as we were buying beer. Be warned that Flipper's doesn't have its liquor license so you can only get beer or wine, but its cheap, and the biggest wine pour I've ever seen, all the way up to the rim of the glass. read more

I give Flipper's a three star rating because it's just your neighborhood bar. Nothing special. BUT, with that said: It is a GREAT bar to meet up with friends on a weeknight and just chill. There are some bar games and a casino, but the best part is just sitting in the comfy bar stools (with backs) and enjoy your friends. read more

Best burger in town. Awesome staff. Great for watching the big game. Colorful locals. read more

Favorite neighborhood bar in Missoula. Just wish they had cocktails. Food is legit too.

If you are a 21 year old female with Cleavage, you'll likely get service. If your a dude forget about it. There were 2 tables occupied in the whole restaurant. I was at the one without boobs. Even going to the counter to try and get service didn't help. On the up note, I noticed it was surprisingly clean inside. As I left... read more

Delicious burgers. Good dive bar ambiance. The one place I order tots over sweet potato fries. I do wish they had liquor though...

This is a great bar and casino! It's close to where I'm living, and the staff are VERY attentive! This bar does not serve hard liquor, but does serve a variety of beers. read more

Great locals bar, with good people and fantasticly cheap, greasy burgers. Fries and tator tots crisped to near perfection. Roscoe's Red always hits the spot! read more

One of the worst bars to watch a football game at... we arrived 30min prior to the game starting. Once the game that was on finished, it took them 20 minutes to change it to the game that was currently on, turns out we were down by 7. After that, we wanted to get continue drinking beer but I guess here you have to wait for the guy (Joey) to come around since he is too busy sitting on his chair while the gothic chick looks at your beer and walks circles around the bar. It would be a great place to watch the game if you did not have to ask FOR YOUR OWN BEER. It was honestly pathetic. Then they started to blast crappy music which would be fine on any other night but do they not realize every single person is there to watch the game? TURN ON THE AUDIO. So yes, I complained then proceeded to receive dirty looks from the gothic chick. One of the worst experiences, we will NEVER return for football Sunday. I am a die hard packer fan and this completely ruined it for me. I would love to know who the owner is to inform him of how horrible of an experience his employees are providing. Going somewhere else next football Sunday to spend my hundred dollars. This bar is could be great if the employees weren't so fucking pathetic and actually cared about the customers. read more

This was always my favorite bar, always. But within the last year they upped all of their prices and made all the food smaller. Just doesn't make sense. Oh and fired all the bartenders that made it fun to go there for. I'll go like once a month and grab a beer but it's just a very different bar now. Buzzkill. read more
