    Permanently closed. Building demolished. Rumor has it that a new bar/restaurant will be built there. Will post when that happens.

    Killy's Irish Pub - Great service!  Ordered the prime rib dip (sans bread) today, with a black tooth brown on tap.  Awesome!

    On July 29th 2025 at about 2:30 in the afternoon. I bought the take out the brisket meal and chose…read moremashed potatoes and the smoked beans for the two sides which I think they call Wyoming beans. I also bought a small portion of ribs. The Killy's restaurant is directly across the street from the Mill Inn hotel And I wanted the food hot so I went directly back to my room. The brisket was very disappointing as it was apparently not freshly smoked because smoked meat gets a distinct less than desirable taste when refrigerated overnight. This meat was definitely refrigerated and warmed over as it had that taste. The beans and potatoes were ok but nothing to write home about. The ribs were ok, taste was on par but nothing exceptional. I detected only a very light smoky flavor. The person who helped me obviously hadn't been trained as she could not answer any of my questions and had to keep asking someone else. While she was nice and really tried but was she knew nothing about the products or the priced that she was serving. All of the staff were respectful and friendly. The ambiance was a typical bar that smelled like smoked meat and was slightly smoky. It has a large and spacious dining area! One of the reviews I read said that they had smoked bacon ends but when I asked for the bacon ends, the fellow who acted like a manager said they have never had smoked ends of any kind. To sum up. I wouldn't return to this establishment again. I do not know where the reviews are coming from. But the food is nothing like what was described In the reviews.

    Stopped here on our way through town. The building set up was a little confusing. They had a deli…read morecounter (including a Chester's chicken), a pub, and a self seating area. They all serve the same food but the pub also serves alcohol. We stopped in for the BBQ which seems strange for a place called an Irish Pub. Again just adding to our confusion. Once we figured out how to order food things were good. Some items were bland while others were really good. One of the staff members seemed annoyed with us because we didn't know what was going on. So that was not great. But all of that aside it was a nice place to stop for a bite to eat.

Got my hotel room and changed clothes, but was still looking a little ragged, almost didn't go because I wasn't sure I would be welcome in jeans, boots and t-shirt and a mop of wet hair. Couldn't have been more wrong. Great bartender, Bridget. I ordered a Scotch Ale. She asked if I would like a shot of Vanilla Vodka in it. Never heard of that before. It really perked up the ale. Ordered the In & Haute Burger it was great; Apple Bread Pudding with Caramel-Whiskey Sauce. It came in small cast iron skillet which kept it hot through the entire time I was eating it. It was cooked perfectly, almost burnt, but not quite, crispy char on outside warm moist and fluffy on inside. Customers at the bar and servers walking by were all friendly and welcoming.

I loved the decor. Both our dishes were delicious. I had the salmon tacos and they were fresh and extremely tasteful. I really haven't had such delicious tacos in a very long time. My husband had the elk bolognese. The pasta was definitely made in house, just delightful. The sauce was rich and savory. Lastly we shared the bread pudding which we highly recommend. It was amazing! Wonderful experience!

    Stop 9 of 9 for WY, 48 overall, on our Hundreds of Hops self-guided US Hop Passport Brewery Tour,…read moreAmazing Brewery Race 2025 - for our 5th state win!! And we were THOSE people, unintentionally. We showed up 15min before the kitchen closed (not knowing there was or expecting there to be a kitchen) and 45min before the brewery itself closed. I can't lie, we've been crazy road-tripping it & we were, again, excited when they mentioned food. I'm not sure if the kitchen staff were as excited as us, but they didn't let on that we were putting them out, even with such a late order. We did try to be accommodating- I went so far as to say "give me anything you need to get rid of." Of course, the barkeep had already taken our orders by that point & I guess that was that. Chicken fried steak for me & a brisket wrap for the hubs - we could have (& probably should have) split either & would have had plenty to eat. We both took food with us to the hotel & we had leftovers for breakfast (2-fer). The food came up fast & the flavors were good. I appreciated the non-traditional take on the chicken fried steak. No country gravy here... she ate like schnitzel which went well with the beer! Speaking of, on to the reason for stopping, beer. Sage Creek IPA 3.75 Mountain Wheat IPA 4 Sand Coulee Red 4.25 Heart Mountain Hefe 3.75 Service couldn't be better. I can't stress enough how much I appreciate not being made to feel like I shouldn't be there- even being encouraged to enjoy both the food & beer, despite the late arrival. Kudos!

It was pretty good overall, but the service and lack of a starch option was not great. The bartender that night had an attitude until she didn't. This was 7/25/26. And not being able to get mashed or a baked potato with the hamburger because of a gluten allergy AND still paying $19.50 for a bunless hamburger was not quality service. Trying to tell us the same grease that cooks things with gluten, also cooking the fries would be hot enough to get rid of the gluten. Haha come on!
