Our room in the Kimpton Armory hotel was on the 8th floor and Sky Shed happens to be on the 9th, so it was pretty easy for us to pop in for a night cap after being out in the cold for most of the day. I usually don't haunt hotel bars but I had a F&B credit and I read really good reviews about this place, so we decided to come in and check it out. We sat at the bar and that was a great idea. The bartender was friendly and made us laugh a lot. She was also very good at her job and made us some excellent cocktails. We ordered from the cocktail menu, but she was ready to make whatever you wanted, except for a Captain and Mountain Dew because unfortunately they don't have Mountain Dew at the hotel. And don't worry, it wasn't me ordering that. Not that I'd shame anyone for their cocktail choices but the gentleman and lady next to us had some interesting combinations they wanted to order. We also ordered the carrot cake pops. Man those were good too. We contemplated coming in the next day for some more. We liked them that much. The ambiance of this rooftop bar is also fantastic. It's large and decorated really well but the piece de resistance was the outside and the views of Downtown Bozeman. The cozy fire pits and comfy seating were very appealing. I only wish we didn't stroll in from our hotel room and wore more clothes so we could have sat out there the whole time. Oh well, there's always next time. read more

This place is good for a group to just chat and eat appetizer. I wish the place had more food options. It is a good atmosphere. The staff is super nice and very attentive. The price is a little high, but the appetizer is really good so worth it. read more

Located at the top of the Kimpton Hotel in Bozeman, this rooftop bar is a gem. They offer small plates if you are hungry . We had 1 app and some cocktails and watched the sunset. It was great. And service was very good considering how busy it got. Would definitely recommend this spot. read more

Quality drinks in a modern and chic interior. $$$ and wish the outdoor area was a bit more spacious for our big group we came out with. Overall didn't fit the vibe we were going for. read more

This place has incredible views and I'm always happy to pay a little extra for a great view! The service was a underwhelming- when we arrived, we waited by the empty host stand for several minutes before giving up and trying to grab a seat at the bar. A server cut us off to tell us we had to wait for a hostess and she finally showed up. We were seated and our table server was absolutely delightful. However I felt awful for the table next to us (guests of the hotel) who had to wait over 20 minutes for someone to clean their table and take their drink order. Half of them gave up because it was taking so long. Dessert was nothing special. But if you're just looking for a great view for a drink, this place is worth checking out for sunset. read more

We were staying at the Kimpton Armory and decided to pop upstairs to the rooftop bar which has nice indoor-outdoor dining area. The outdoor couches/tables were taken so we snagged the corner table and enjoyed beautiful sunset views. The menu is comfort food and we ordered the grilled cheese & tomato Basil soup as well as the pork belly sliders. Both were tasty. My only feedback is that while the hostess did seat us, it was at least 15 - 20 minutes for anyone to acknowledge us despite being one of a few table occupied in the restaurant and several servers standing around talking. Once the server finally acknowledged us, she was attentive and we received good service. Best views up on the rooftop of downtown Bozeman! read more

The view is amazing! If you are lucky enough to get a chance to catch some live music, so fun!

We have visited the Sky Shed several times, views are unbelievable, seasonal drinks are fantastic and service is on par with their drink selection. But if I had one disappointment were the food options, either overcooked, undercooked or just lacking flavor (even salt), I'd say they need a chef or maybe kitchen staff...but can't give more than 3 stars when food is not even recommended. read more

Sky Shed - Looking South the window next to the elevator. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Bozeman, Montana

This rooftop bar at the Kimpton Armory hotel has a nice atmosphere. One side had lounge seating, the main area was bar seating, and lastly there is an outdoor patio (which I wish I was able to enjoy, but it rained while I was there). Nonetheless, it had good vibes. It wasn't busy on a Sunday night. Drinks, food, and service was great! read more

I made a reservation, arrived a little early and was sat immediately. Unfortunately, I waited about 12-15 minutes before a waitress came to get my drink order. I ordered a "I'll Be Your Huckleberry"- it was okay, nothing spectacular for a cocktail. I moved to a better table in the corner by the windows just in time to watch the sun set- gorgeous. I ordered a "Backcountry Board" which was good. The huckleberry & goat cheese crostini was my favorite. read more

We sat at the bar and had some elk meatballs and trout dip which were amazing. So while the food and drinks were very good the service was almost offensive. The 4 or 5 waitstaff that we saw were constantly talking about the other guests in the restaurant. I get that other guests we're sitting at the fire pit (which apparently costs &500 to just sit there!) without a reservation but I don't need to hear about during my entire visit. Ironically the bartender who was good told us where we shouldn't go in Bozeman. Overall the views were incredible if you were lucky enough to snag one of the outside tables at sunset. Just know your bill will come back with a $500 charge if you sit at one of those a coveted fire pit seats. read more

Sky Shed - A blurry pic of the cool window with a view. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Bozeman, Montana

Views for days!!! I'm always on the hunt for rootop bars, and Sky Shed fit the bill! It's located on the 9th floor of the Kimpton hotel. There is ample street parking around and a garage nearby. It's spring in Montana, so as far as weather, anything goes! It's sunny, it's cloudy, it's raining, it's snowing... But on this particular visit, it did all but snow (thankfully). I was able to sit outside and enjoy the views for a bit, before it started to get windy. Service can use some help, but I was ok with that, since my focus was on the views. I had a couple of glasses of their Rose and ordered their loco moco for dinner. It was not a typical Hawaiian loco moco, which is understandable, but it was pretty good. It had a Hawaiian beef patty, mushroom gravy, sunny side up egg , and furikake on top of a veggie fried rice. Tons of flavor and tons of texture from the fried rice. Since I wasn't super hungry, I didn't order any more items. I am curious enough about some other things on their menu to wander back in again. I hope the weather cooperates the next time I'm in town! read more

Food : meat balls and chocolate cake were 10/10 amazing! Service: we were staying at the hotel and wanted to try this place for Christmas dinner. They were packed we didn't get a reservation and were out on the wait list at 4 didn't get a spot until 8pm but were told they had staff walk out and were short handed they were still pleasant and quick! Ambiance : the views speak for themselves! The pictures don't do it justice They also have great non alcoholic options as well read more

Gorgeous views from the roof top restaurant. Excellent service and very friendly and knowledgeable server staff.

Probably the best cocktail bar in Bozeman with pretty neat views! Located on the ninth floor, they have impeccable views of snow clad mountains while you sip on the perfect cocktail. Our server was so great - she had such great recommendations and checked on us in timely manner. Overall I really enjoyed my evening and am glad we came here! If you are in Bozeman, you have to check this place out! Cocktails here definitely do justice to the views! read more

The most beautiful rooftop views in Bozeman. The perfect spot to unwind and take in the views while enjoying a glass of wine or craft cocktail. For snacks, the chicken skewers are a delicious snack, but if you're feeling naughty... go for the fries. They'e huge, and the little crispy garlic bits in this dish are on point. Cheers y'all! read more

Made reservations here on a Saturday at 2pm for a group of 16 (bachelorette party). When we arrived, we were blind sided by the sky shed being closed for a private party. When we confronted the front desk about our initial reservation, they told us 1. They don't take reservations 2. They don't open until 4. Super unprofessional on their part. read more

This is a great spot to catch the game (plenty of TV's) over a round of fancy cocktails, and enjoy the view at downtown Bozeman. It's much more upscale than most places, but casual attire is acceptable. All their cocktails were delicious, I tried the sport coat blanket, kissed by a dog, & grandmas lairds. I'm sure the food is great too! read more

Ambiance and service were very good. Came on a cloudy day with a bit of lightning in the distance, just beautiful. I'm a local and have avoided coming here because...parking downtown. My daughter and I were invited here last minute and decided why not? Drinks were fine, the food left a lot to be desired. $26 for a steak Caesar salad, I expected much more than half of an over cooked steak that was 35% gristle. I had the burger which again was okay but for the price, no. Patty was a bit dry and the bun fell apart. Total without tip was $62 for one drink, one soda, one salad, and a burger. Won't be back. read more

Wonderful dinner experience. I had a craving for Asian food tonight and the Asian menu options here are fantastic! I had the shrimp Panang curry and my husband had the general tsp's pork ribs. Both excellent flavor profile and hit the spot. I especially liked how the chef roasted the vegetables in the Panang prior. The roasting of the onions and sweet potatoes brought out the carmelized sweetness which made the Panang extra rich and savory. Cheers! Ps: Leila our server also a treat! read more

Great place to go for sunset and drinks! Love the atmosphere here. For a party of 6, we got a spacious table on the outdoor rooftop and were able to enjoy a few relaxing hours. Service and staff were friendly and accommodating. I had a great time here and wouldn't hesitate to come back for nice ambiance! read more

Beautiful location! Beautiful sunset views! But, man! Waaay overpriced and not worth the price. $7 for hot cocoa? It tastes worse than Swiss Miss made out of dishpan water. And $8 for a fruit juice mocktail?!? A $14 happy hour mule, in a micro-sized copper mug, without a dash of alcohol? We had been shortly after the grand opening years ago, and were disappointed then. Thought we'd try again some years later. Won't be back. read more

Very tasty KFC tacos and Pilsner! Amazing view of the whole valley. Great service. Definitely coming back.

We LOVED our Snow Shed experience! There were four of us, and the shed was warm and our service was excellent! The food was served family style and was plentiful, perfect temperature, really good, and a nice variety of normal and a little different, for all tastes. Tip: Make a reservation for an early time (4pm) so you can be there during daylight, sunset and night. Very magical, highly recommend! read more

Great drinks, great food, phenomenal view! It was so refreshing to be greeted warmly by the staff and made to feel so welcome! The happy hour menu is awesome! Super delicious sake cocktails. The furikake fries are crispy and flavorful! As a local, I'm always skeptical of these hotel restaurants (I don't want to pay tourist prices). But I was incredibly impressed with Sky Shed. I will be back! read more

The view and great staff make this a 4, otherwise, maybe a 3. Everything seems so sugary. Lots of sugar in every drink and surprised they charge $13 for a canned drink. I ordered one drink and had to dilute it with water just to drink it. The menu is small and not intriguing enough to try anything. And there's sugar in all of it. Why all the sugar?? read more

Dorothy definitely didn't think she was in Bozeman anymore. It's been A little over two years since I've been to Bozeman and all I can say is wowza! Overall there is so much growth and there are many new developments and establishments but the Sky Shed really takes things to a higher level...literally the "sky" - rooftop! I'm not gonna lie I was very jealous of the people that were soaking in the hot pool outside but at least I was busy enjoying my french fries that were spectacular and my chocolate wonton which was divine and the dips for both of those dishes were absolutely perfect. Hopefully I can get back to going to Bozeman once a year and if that's the case I definitely would like to add Sky Shed to my list of places to visit! read more

Let me start by saying I have loved Sky Shed since The Armory opened and visit on a fairly frequent basis. Hubby and I decided to drop in on a week night before dinner reservations at another downtown spot. It was fairly early around 5:30.. bar wasn't very busy. We decided to sit by the indoor fireplace which was comfy and cozy for the two of us The wait staff is amazing- attentive and not overbearing. We enjoyed our first cocktail and decided to wait a smidge before ordering a second as I believe most people do at Sky Shed since it's such a fantastic venue due to views and the comfy cozy fireplace. The Manager came by, asked if we wanted another cocktail... we responded 'not right now'... imagine my total shock and surprise that within less than five minutes, the wait staff brought us the bill! As a local, and Downtown Bozeman Business Owner that continually touts all the benefits of businesses including dining and having drinks downtown, I was beyond appalled and disappointed in the feeling of being pushed out of Sky Shed. Yup.. that's how it felt- we were being pushed out. I'm so disappointed in the management of Sky Shed- what if I was a hotel guest, a visitor to Bozeman and not a local that knew service had been and should be better?? Therefore, a poor review equals poor management NOT poor wait staff. I know Sky Shed is better than the experience we had; I certainly hope the manager changes her attitude of pushing out paying guests because they decide to wait a bit before ordering another round or food. read more

We had reservations for 4:45 on a Saturday. We arrived a few minutes early and were seated right away. It took almost 20 minutes before a server said anything to us, and we had to snag her from a nearby table. She said she'd be right with us. Seven minutes later we got water and menus. So about 25 minutes in. From there the service was efficient in terms of timing - but nobody ever came back to ask how our food was. We both had hamburgers, which were cooked to death and dry. Tater tots were good, however. We had to flag down our server to get our bill, and then she lost and did not return my credit card. Great view but it was packed and noisy during our visit. Not close enough to be worth a second try. read more

What an amazing view! We ordered a few drinks and the fries as an app. The fries had a nice Asian twist and were delicious! Wine was good too. I wish they had a cab option for less than $17. That's a little steep. I would recommend more wine options at different price points. The bar is located in what seems to be the highest spot in Bozeman. I can't imagine a better spot to have a before dinner drink. A lack of wine options and only offering a pretty pricy cab is the only reason I am not giving a 5/5. read more
