Salad
J F.

Pretty good but not worth the hype. Food is average and you pay for the view. Friendly servers. Expensive cocktails. Just not that impressed with the quirky menu. Gave four stars for friendly service

Rainy Sunday makes for a nice opportunity for a cocktail!
Jim P.

Great Service, amazing views, and an Awesome selection of spirits! Food selection is limited, but the options are tasty. The seasoned waffle fries are bomb! You gotta try this place if you are staying at the Armory. Cheers

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.

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.

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.

This place is good for a group to just and eat appetizer.

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.

We had a wonderful experience here while staying at the hotel. A few small plates and a few more drinks AND that view made for an excellent evening in Bozeman. We also had great service. Would recommend.

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!

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.

Loco Moco

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!

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!

I'll I'll Be Your Huckleberry & Backcountry Board with a great view
Megan L.

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.

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.

Truly the best hotel bar I've experienced…read more They consider themselves a dive bar, but I disagree. This hidden gem located in the basement of The Kimpton Armory hotel. No cover. Live music I think nightly. Great drinks. Food too. What more could you ask for? I've seen some great bands here. Many seating options from booth in the back to tables in the middle to the bar rail. Excellent place to grab a drink, listen to music, bring a date, or come solo. Can't wait to come back!

I might have given this bar a higher rating, had I not been to the rooftop bar in the same hotel…read morethe night before. I hate to compare but it's crazy how different two places can be in the same hotel. The service here was abysmal. We came at the end of someone's set and it wasn't that crowded in the bar but almost every single table was dirty, with empty glasses on them. There seemed to be one bartender and another person helping. That person literally just stood there talking to people instead of cleaning up the tables. The bartender was pretty rude too and didn't seem to be into working here at all. The only clean table was by the door and it kept getting opened while the next band set up so we just moved to a table with dirty glassware on it. The drinks were pretty lackluster (especially compared to the awesome ones upstairs). I don't think it was that the menu was inferior to the other, I just think the bartender didn't care. Both my drinks were watered down and icy. Pretty sad for the price to be honest. It got pretty crowded for the second set being played so we decided to leave to let other people sit. I wasn't interested in having another icy sad drink.

I took some friends here for the first time--friends from LA, so naturally their expectations…read morearrived before they did. Luckily, Est. 1864 delivered. The atmosphere was beautiful, the music was perfect, and the overall experience was amazing. We decided we had to try the buffalo wings, only to discover they're normally served only on the late-night menu. Tragic. Heartbreaking. We nearly had to call our therapists. But then Sheyne came to the rescue. He went out of his way, convinced the chef to make the wings for us, and basically saved the evening--and possibly our friendship with the LA people. If that is not top-tier customer service, I don't know what is. Sheyne deserves a raise, a trophy, and perhaps his own holiday. From now on, I will be bringing every visitor I have to EST 1864--and I sincerely hope Sheyne lives forever. Amazing food, great vibe, excellent music, and unforgettable service. LA approved... which is honestly the highest compliment possible.

We were really disappointed with our experience at 1864, especially considering our bill was $169…read more It took over 30 minutes just to receive a simple vodka soda. Unfortunately, the service didn't improve from there. I ordered the meatballs, and they had to be sent back twice. The first time they came out cold. The second time they came back mushy that they were inedible. After the second attempt, I asked to have the meatballs removed from the bill since I never received an acceptable dish. Instead of trying to make it right, the bartender told me they would not remove them from the check. Everyone can have an off night, but what really left a bad impression was the lack of customer service and unwillingness to correct the problem. For the amount we spent, I expected much better food, service, and a willingness to stand behind what was served.

Stopped into Copper on a Friday evening and grabbed seats at the bar before heading down to…read moreYellowstone the next day. The food and drinks were excellent, but the highlight of the night was Trent. We were looking for recommendations on things to do in the area, and Trent absolutely delivered. Scenic drives, sightseeing spots, Yellowstone stops, local attractions--you name it, he had a recommendation for it. The suggestions were coming faster than we could write them down, and every time we thought he was done, he'd remember three more places we needed to see. His food and cocktail recommendations were spot on, and he was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. As an added bonus, his voice carries exceptionally well, so hearing all of those recommendations was never an issue, even on a busy Friday night. Copper is a great spot, but Trent is what made the experience memorable. If you find yourself sitting at his bar, settle in--you'll leave with a great meal, a great drink, and a much longer list of places to visit than you arrived with.

Food and service was pretty average - we like to order an adult beverage before dinner and peruse the menu. We were told the bar was backed up so we should get our food order in. So, not a take-your-time kinda place. Not rude, but not chill. Shared a 1/2 portion wedge salad @ $12 - perfect for two and tasty. Main entrees were a bit disappointing: 8 oz Tenderloin Filet @ $54 was cooked a bit more than requested and it came with (2) baked potatoes which we've never seen before (+ $4 upcharge). The Pan Seared Trout @ $34 was prepared nicely but there is not any flavor; served w/ a Blackberry BBQ but very sparingly. Super bland. Would come back to visit the bar - would consider ordering a burger, but wouldn't return for the main entrees.
