    Had to stop and try here as we were driving down past and saw it was on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives! It didn't disappoint. We had chicken tenders, deviled eggs, macaroni, and mashed potatoes and tried the house comeback sauce, and honey mustard. All was served so fresh, warm and so tasty!!!! The service was so good the lady the checked us out was so kind! Prices were reasonable and portions were large. We would definitely return as we left stuffed and happy! Yum!

    Banana pudding!

    The chicken tenders were so good, and they were HUGE! Biscuits were perfectly baked, the Mac & cheese and collard greens sides were amazing, and the banana pudding was delicious.

    We have this little thing where we like as foodies to try as many Guy Fieri Diner's Drive In's and Dive's adventures. Relying on fellow Yelp reviews, we happened to stumble across Roost Fried Chicken unbeknownst at first that it happened to be a triple D visit on season 29 episode 2. We were pleasantly surprised and if given the opportunity, we definitely will visit again. Service was great and food was terrific. We had a (1/2 a bucket) 4 piece classic fried chicken meal with double collard greens, because if you know me, I'm a green fanatic. We also got the Alabama Sammy with extra pickles with a side of Mac & cheese. The Alabama had a nicely grilled bun on both sides which gave a nice crunch as you took a bite. It was like a heavenly creamy chicken salad sandwich without fruit or nuts. The pickle slices added a nice tang and the white sauce had a bit of pleasant heat at the end. The Mac & cheese sadly was rather plain and dry. Maybe just an off day for it. Now back to the stars of the show. The chicken was so moist, flavorful and delicious, we regretted only getting a 4 piece. My hubby was sympathetic to me eyeing him devouring his chicken, so he shared a leg with me. Now let m tell you, I'm one to get picked on for "not knowing how to properly pick a chicken bone clean." I'm pretty sure not a shred of any chicken remnants were left on that leg bone. Really THAT delicious! And the collard greens....perfectly seasoned (I love heavy handed course ground black pepper and it certainly was.) Now, if only Roost Fried Chicken can hook a sister up and do some overnight delivery I'd be ecstatic. And lastly, try their homemade hand squeezed fresh lemonade served in a mason jar. Refreshing and the perfect accompaniment to our meal. They also served freshly brewed unsweetened as well as southern sweet tea. They do have a nice outside patio with several tables and chairs to visit and make new friends. Tables are inside as well but we went on a gorgeous day and several patrons chose the outside seating option.

    Home made Lemonade! Best ever!

    Best chicken sandwich I ever tasted! Friendly service with a great fun ambiance! Outside seating just tops it off so if ya have a dog get ready to go and enjoy!

    Travel week so I decided to head over to the Triple D Restaurant!!! Small spot, good for groups of 4, if your numbers are higher call before time. I did the take out option. Service was good and I was able to customize my order!!! Tasted southern to me, no complaints!!!

    Nashville, hot chicken strips and waffles
    MissClaire K.

    Fast, friendly and delicious . Would be a fun place to visit on the patio when it's not snowing. Chicken was tender and waffles were fluffy. My husband really enjoyed the Nashville hot chicken sandwich as well. From Southern California, we are hot chicken connoisseurs, and this hit the spot.

    This place was sooo good. I had the Nashville hot sandwich and a sweet tea and it was so tasty! The chicken was made to perfection. The service was pretty fast and I like the decorations inside and how the menu is on the wall. I would definitely come back to eat here when I visit Bozeman!

    Fried green tomatoes
    Clint R.

    Everything was hot and fresh. They have fried green tomatoes right now and they are the bomb. The chicken tenders were hot and tender and the fries were fresh. The chicken sandwich had just the right amount of sweet and salty with the slaw. Would eat here again!

    Sarah S.

    Not the best chicken I have had and definitely not the best service. The first time I came to Bozeman was 2020 and I came back in 2023 and the town is booming. Over tourism has definitely caused sub par eateries. The chicken I got tasted like it has been sitting there awhile, fries were cold and soda was flat. Not a good combination. The star of the show was the biscuit that came with my meal. Parking was hectic as it is a small lot and limited seating instead as well. Located on a Main Street in Bozeman. When in the area, I probably wouldn't go back. Super chix in town is good. Make the drive to Whitehall and check out two bit saloon for good chicken!

    Outside seating with a perfect spot to provide water for a dog
    Erin C.

    Stopped in for a late lunch while driving through town. Had the Carolina BBQ sandwich (a hearty piece of chicken with a wonderful coating and the sauce was wonderfully tangy and went well with the coleslaw) and the chicken strips (perfectly cooked, juicy and tender with a nice, crunchy coating). The folks were so polite and there was a perfect spot to sit outside with our dog.

    Chicken and Waffles (Nashville Hot)
    Sawyer M.

    Insane food. Got the chicken and waffles with nashville hot on the strips, unbelievable! Very good waffles, and chicken was amazing. Would recommend this to everyone!!

    Ed-man H.

    The chicken sandwich was light and airy, not greasy at all. Their special sauce and toasted bun finshed off the great sandwich. The place is small and quaint and no frills. The biscuit was plain, no need to order it unless you dipping it i ln something.

We added a small side of steak to split for our kids and she made sure each kid had enough and even had the steak cut up. She talked to us about our up coming trip and was very engaging. We were delighted to have her the following day when we dined for dinner. Everything came out perfect, she checked on us multiple times and was extremely accommodating to our wants and needs for dinner. The following morning we dined for breakfast and had Kendra wait on us. She was also amazing. All of the staff must be fabulous because each time we were there we were blown away by the friendly, helpful and thoughtful staff. Kendra not only provided great table service, but she was a delight to talk with. She gave insight to our trip and gave great suggestions for future trips.

Overall we liked the walleye a little bit better. We were happy to find some items that are at least a little bit on the healthier side. Our waitress super friendly and quick with everything we required. Would definitely come back here.

    We were out to eat with the family again and well Buffalo Wild Wings was what was chosen…read more We were greeted and sat in a large booth area on the side. There were lots of tvs on for different sporting events which I'm sure most folks are here for as well as enjoy some food. It was definitely loud in there so take that into account. We decided to try out the All-American burger with fries and the Ultimate Sampler - Lemon pepper boneless chicken wings, teriyaki cauliflower wings, onion rings and mozzarella sticks. After ordering it did take quite some time to get our food. We were a large party so I'm sure that took into factor why it took quite some time to get our food. I would say the burger was not bad, the lemon pepper boneless chicken wings were quite salty as well as the teriyaki cauliflower wings. If I did order these again, I would probably ask for the sauce on the side to control the sauciness as well as the saltiness. Overall not a bad spot to get a variety of food so everyone can get what they want. The wait time might be an issue but as long as you're not starving, you should be okay. The saltiness of the food though can be tricky so perhaps ask for sauces on the side.

I don't come here because the food is amazing. I come here because my friends drink beer, and until recently, I could still order an Athletic non-alcoholic beer that actually tasted like beer. That mattered to me. It made the experience feel normal and enjoyable. I understand that Buffalo Wild Wings may still have Heineken 0.0 and Michelob Ultra Zero, but to me, those do not taste like beer in the same way Athletic did. Athletic was the one non-alcoholic option that felt like a real beer choice, not just a substitute. It may seem like a small thing, but it changes the whole reason I came here. For people who don't drink, or who are sober, having a good non-alcoholic beer option matters. It lets us be part of the same experience without alcohol. I'm disappointed because Buffalo Wild Wings had a good thing for customers like me. Taking away Athletic makes it feel like there is one less reason for me to come here with my friends. Unfortunately, I don't think I can keep coming here unless a real non-alcoholic beer option comes back.

    The good: No crowd for dining...even on Father's Day!…read moreFriendly staff. Historic building and interior. Got a table with a good view of Bozeman Main Street bustle. Really good background music at the perfect volume for dining. The bad: There are reasons for no dinner crowd* Here the dining used to Be a delicious culinary experience. Now, the experience is, no vision, no direction, no Bacchus-Better-Half (unless you consider the 'pub' to be the better half instead of the dining). Even the god of merriment knows great food goes hand-in-hand with refreshing libations. Sadly, it would seem the menu was forgotten after the first happy hour drinks were served. Tsk. Tsk. The anticipated experience: Sometimes I just get a craving for a favorite kind of food and nothing else will satisfy. This is the case of a timeless classic, The Rubin Sandwich. I am a lover of the Rubin and have been all my adult life. The pan fried Rye bread. The thick juicy center of corned beef, the tang of the mouthwatering sauerkraut that adds great flavor and helps to prevent a dry sandwich, and most of all. The amazing taste of traditionally made Thousand Island dressing...critical to the composition of the piece, dare I say, Masterpiece? Uhh...well, no. I daren't say that word. The reality experience: Forget everything I just described above (save, dry sandwich... and substitute that for 'crossing-the-Sahara-dry-cottonmouth dry sandwich'). I wish ,if only, I could stop there. Alas, it was horrifyingly only the beginning of everything that was wrong with the experience. What can I say? Everything from toasting the over abundant slices of bread before they were assembled and fried on a grill as a whole sandwich, to the somehow missing the fact that one of the two sandwiches ordered (mine) was sans sauerkraut (I mean like zero amount of the canned cabbage was included on my sandwich), to the most egregious culinary violation of the evening, the Thousand Island dressing! Oh it had a pinkish colored condiment, all right. The best I could determine, mayo and ketchup (but not tasty like secret sauce à la McDonalds Big Mac.. a sandwich I found myself wishing I had ordered at that moment). Oh no. It was as blaise and bland and tasteless as a goopy substance could possibly be. Thousand Island? Uhh... no. Maybe the 1001st Island ? To think I even asked for more to help my aqua-challenged pallet! I sadly worked over the sans-wich with a faint glimmer of hope that I would cull at least something good from this culinary catastrophe. Reality set in. This was no Rubin. It was no sandwich at all. It was a $25 (x2) heist from my wallet. For real. I'd been heisted and nothing would undo this experience. The real kicker: My own brother, not only recommended THIS sandwich from THIS establishment a few months ago, he went so far as to say, 'the best Rubin in town.' Really? No not really. For real. Apparently Yaleys (the owner reputedly attended the posh Ivy League college) know nothing of preparing proper Irish fare. This menu item doesn't even warrant a 1 star out of 5. Zero stars for the arid anomaly. I'll keep my overall rating at 3 stars for the dining experience; keep in mind, the restaurant was a 5 star experience back in the day (of taste and hydration). The Irish have, not only suffered potato famine, but now sandwich hydration-drought.
