    Buffalo head on wall

    Definitely saloon feel, limited seating, dark inside. Food was ok, nothing exciting. I got pizza but crust was awful (not fresh) and so much thick cheese it was not good. Hubby and daughter had chicken sandwiches and they were average. Service was good. Only place in tiny town for dinner next time I'll cook in the rv.

    We came during lunch, so it's empty now but it looks like this space could be a live music or dancing area!

    We stopped here as we were passing through Montana. The bartender was extremely friendly, the portions were just right, and the beer was cold. What more could you want? The bartender also told us about a fun game they play where they hide a rubber duck, and if you find it you get a prize. We didn't see the duck but it made us feel welcomed. The town has a historic feel, making it a cool stop if you're passing through. Oh and they're dog friendly which is much appreciated when traveling with a furry companion. They even serve a puppy patty (unseasoned burger patty) for $4.

    Added new menu; some previous items not available. This was a great roadtrip stop for the family at lunch. We understand it's under new ownership in the last few years, true cowboy cooking - delicious burger! Outdoor seating and indoor. Clean bathrooms, games for the kids, cool decor and stage for bands. Awesome service. Truly the best of the best Montana roadside grills. A must if you're passing thru. Sleepy town so plenty of spots for our RV parking. Open year round they shared!

    We stopped in for lunch on the way to Billings. Simple, delicious menu. The cheeseburgers, fries and onion rings were delicious. Definitely worth the stop. 100x better than any chain restaurant. Small town bar and grill feel, check out everything on the wall! 7/2023- location very much open.

    Cheeseburger and hand cut fries.

    Wow! We were driving cross country and had been on the road for hours. Reed Point was the nearest location on yelp with a bar that only had two reviews at the time. What a pleasant surprise! The place had a cool saloon feel and the bartender was very nice. We ordered cheeseburgers and fries with beer to drink. Fantastic hot and fresh food and cold beer.

    Don't pass up this little gem right off I-90. The food is as authentic as the atmosphere. And, they're dog friendly!

We walked in here with not the highest of hopes but hungry bellies, and were extremely pleasantly surprised. The staff were warm and welcoming, and made us instantly feel at home. And the suggestion of the roasted red pepper soup was on point. That soup is probably the best thing I've eaten so far in the state of Montana. The burgers were good and juicy and I'm kind of sad that we didn't get the fries because the next table over had them and they looked delicious. The iced tea tasted fresh brewed and this would be a foolish spot to miss if you're in the area headed into or out of Yellowstone the prices were reasonable and it looks like they do live music and I would be excited to come back and eat again. Wheelchair accessibility: this is a historic building and would be within its rights not to be wheelchair accessible. But that is not the case! There is a zero rise door entry; you do have to get through the saloon doors and then there's a traditional door behind that so you might need a hand but coming out you look like an old western bandit ready for a high noon shootout. There's plenty of seating options and lots of space to maneuver. The bathroom door was light and the bathrooms are spacious with plenty of room to turn around, and grab bars.

    I normally don't leave reviews, but feel I need to give a little warning. Let me preface this by…read moresaying that we originally went here for the bison ribeye. Unfortunately, when we got there ( at 7pm on Saturday night) they were already out of the bison. We originally thought about leaving, but then decided to just try something else. Also, I know that I did not expect the best I've ever had, ordering seafood at a restaurant in Montana. This is just to let everyone know, whatever you do, do not order the Cajun shrimp. It was the worst shrimp I've ever had. It was so overcooked it had the consistency of a hockey puck, and the seasoning tasted as if it was marinated in balsamic vinegar-nothing remotely Cajun about it. It was a cool experience, with the pig races, and my husband's ribeye was decent. Just don't order the Cajun shrimp!!

    Food was good and the server was exceptional! Atmosphere was great and the noise level in the…read morerestaurant was just right. Bison steak was good and jumbo shrimp were favorable and cooked just right! Betting on the pig races was a little cumbersome with waiting in line. I feel like we spent more time waiting in line than actually enjoying the races. Races were fun to watch. Bar service was below average. The bar tenders (there were 3 by my count) were not able to keep up and seemed disoriented with the drinks in the bar (was this their first night?!?). Took about 15 minutes to cash out our tab. Also, would have preferred more options for beer on tap.
