This place was big and shaky. The restroom was interesting but not steady. The food was cheap and good.

The food was blah, the service horrible. Waitress never smiled, etc. The best thing about the place is the decor and old bar. I'd pass next time! read more

We came in right after opening today, it's a really cool dive bar that I'm glad we stopped at. It's somewhere to go for a cool experience with a simple menu. The staff were nice (dive bar nice), the bar was clean and decorated in a really cool way. Definitely somewhere you go to for the experience. read more

The food was ok, not lousy as promised. The portions were hipster sized, very small and dainty rather than hearty. Touristy and cheeky, it is ok for a quick stop and a few laughs. read more

Their sign says Lousy food. It truly is. Saloon was cool with old bar and sawdust all on the floor. But don't order food.

I stopped at the Stoneville Saloon during the 2014 Sturgis motorcycle rally. We were taking a scenic motorcycle ride during the motorcycle rally and decided to follow Hwy. 212 west into Montana. After riding for about 1 hr. we came across the Stoneville Saloon, located in Alzada, MT in the middle of nowhere. The town of Alzada, MT has a population of approximately 40 people. The only businesses in this town are the bar and a gas station. The bar is very rustic looking on the outside. During the motorcycle rally you'll find people coming and going, but I'm told that during the rest of the year you probably have the place to yourself! The inside of the bar is also very rustic looking and oddly decorated with antiques everywhere. You'll find the floor covered with saw dust and an old wood burning stove in the corner. The men's bathroom was decorated with posters of bikini clad women. This was the first time I've ever seen a urinal equipped with handlebars! During the Sturgis rally, the Stoneville Saloon advertises "Topless Tuesday" and has a wet T-shirt contest. The bar also advertises "Cheap beer, Lousy food". The bar also had live music in the parking lot, along with beautiful waitresses and body shots! This is a great dive bar and makes a great spot to stop and have a beer. The Stoneville Saloon is conveniently located on Hwy. #212 and is a scenic route between Sturgis, SD and Devil's Tower national monument near Huelett, WY read more

Stoneville Saloon - The historic Stoneville Saloon - Dive Bars Near Me - Alzada, Montana

You walk in not sure what to expect with dirty, dusty floors, old farm equipment hanging from the ceiling, and a couple of interesting characters running the place. We ordered bacon cheeseburgers, French fries and sweet potato tots. The food was really good, despite their tag line of "cheap drinks, lousy food." The burgers came with red onion, lettuce, tomato and pickle. The hamburger patty was juicy and flavorful. The ambiance lends itself to more of a motorcycle crowd, and there were smokers at the bar, although you may at first feel uncomfortable when walking in, you'll soon realize the people are friendly and the food is worth the stop. read more

Great local bar to get a drink and a burger! The experience is unique and the food was what you would expect in a saloon located out in the middle of nowhere! If your looking for fine dining and classy bathrooms, well try it out. The place will most likely put a smile on your face! read more

A classic biker bar, in the Sturgis bike rally tradition. Even though they are the only watering hole for miles (from Belle Fourche, SD to Broadus, MT it's the only thing going), they haven't decided to 'slack off.' You can still get good beer and some decent bar food. I wouldn't say it's all that 'family-friendly' -- the men's bathroom is a wall-to-wall collage of pages from vintage adult magazines -- but the staff there are pretty friendly, in their own vintage fashion. Alzada, MT is a pretty tiny place; no gas stations, no 'downtown.' But they do have the Stoneville Saloon, and that's certainly enough. read more

Food was great the decor was just like you were in a old time saloon. Love the place.

Literally in the middle of nowhere. Moto is "Cheap drinks-Lousy FooAwesome hole in the wall with rustic dive bar atmosphere. Inches of sawdust on the floors and crazy antique junk hanging from the ceiling. Cold beer and drinks. read more

We may have been the most awkward bunch walking into this dive bar, but it was a treat. Diane - presumably the bar owner, is your archetypal biker chick... And also the cook. We were told by man sitting at the bar there are about 25 people in the area; the next settlement is 60 miles further nested into Montana. We just ordered the tater tots and chicken wings and sodas, which were surprisingly fried to perfection. This stop was definitely worth the hour drive we took for the Montana state stamp and snack. read more

For a place that advertises lousy food, I actually thought it was decent. We were just passing though and basically hit up Alzada just to say we'd been to Montana. No fancy flavors or a place for foodies, but the food was certainly edible. The service was something else. In a town this small, they know who doesn't belong, and they make sure you know they know. Ah well, it makes a good story. read more

My husband and I are driving across country and saw this on the map! We are so glad we stopped. The owners Diane and Russ were a joy to talk to and the food was outstanding! The buffalo burger rocked and it was our first time having sweet potato tots! If we ever drive this way again we will definitely stop! read more

This place gets 4 stars for being an awesome dive bar. I drove here with a friend from Sturgis who wanted to have a drink in Montana. We got our money's worth. The staff was friendly, helpful with choices of shots, and had lots of character. The patrons were also very colorful. The family eating there somehow knew my family and offered to do shots with us. I would say it was "family-friendly" based on the fact that there were kids with crayons who seemed pretty content. But it was also Sunday at 11 am. Anyway. Good people, good drinks, good culture. Go! read more

My wife and I love dive bars, so we really liked the exterior/interior of this one. What we didn't like was the high price of the beers ($9 for 2 bottles of Bud!!!). We're also non-smokers, so we thought it was going to be nice to walk in to any MT bar without worrying about our clothes getting smelly. I'm not sure what their rule is with the customers, but the bartender had two cigarettes behind the bar in the time we had one quick beer. The pool table was also covered,so we couldn't play pool, either. It's an interesting place, but certainly not worth going back (and we wouldn't have gone in the first place if we had known). read more

OK, first of all, don't expect 5* dining. This is a great dive bar with great bar food just across the Montana border. I recommend Stoneville as the perfect stop for bikers and travelers looking for good food cheap, cold beer and mixed drinks. (I had a delicious buffalo burger with cheese.) It is a short 40 mile ride by motorcycle after you've completed your Devil's Tower Run, and then just 80 miles to Sturgis. Part of the charm is the decor hanging from the ceiling and walls. The bar was built in the 1930's and sports an 1880's saloon mirror and bar. It was being run by two delightful ladies doing their best to keep up with business. My only regret is missing Topless Tuesday in connection with the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. Bikers especially will appreciate this hole in the wall dive bar. AND there is a Sinclair station selling pure (no ethanol) 91 grade gasoline about a block away. You can't go wrong visiting Alzada, MT, population 27! read more

Last year I was eastbound on Hwy 212 and passed the Stoneville Saloon in Alzada. Didn't have time to stop, but something about the place intrigued me so I did a little research. Turns out the building dates from about 1880 and was the location of the Stoneville Valentine's Day Massacre of 1884 (for more details you can google Stoneville Massacre or read the relevant chapters in the books "Empty Saddles and Forgotten Names" by Doug Engebretson or "Pioneer Days in the Black Hills" by John S. McClintock) So this year I was traveling the same route and made sure to allow enough time in my travels to stop into the Stoneville Saloon for a drink. It turned out to be a quick drink, as I had been running just ahead of a big eastbound thunderstorm since Lame Deer, and I still had to make it to Spearfish to check into my motel for the night. A group of Harley riders were just walking out as I came in. We talked a little bit and it turned out they were hoping to out run the thunderstorm too as they were headed to Belle Fourche for the night. The beer selection wasn't anything too special. They did have Devil's Tower Lager from the Yellowstone Valley Brewing Company which I had never tried. I liked that very much. The bartender lady was a blond with many tattoos and strikingly fierce eyes. She was dressed like a dance hall girl and was wary and not too talkative. But if you were the female bartender in the Stoneville Saloon, dressed like a dance hall girl, working by yourself on a hot Tuesday night as a thunderstorm was rolling in, maybe having a little bit of attitude is a requirement. I was hoping to buy a neat T-Shirt or other memento, but nothing they had impressed me all that much, which was a disappointment. I would've liked to stay longer, but the storm was closing in and there were lightning flashes all over the western sky when I left. I'd like to go back there again, with a few friends, and have a few beers. I just wish their beer selection offered more options. read more

This was THE MOST INCREDIBLE WILD WEST/ BIKER BAR EVER! My husband and I happened upon it by accident while we were on our honeymoon road-trip last week. I actually u-turned to go back and check it out because it looked that intriguing and we were not disappointed! The atmosphere inside is as wild west as it is outside with sawdust covered floors and various western and biker memorabilia hung all over the walls. The lady's bathroom was hilarious! Food, drinks and merchandise all reasonably priced! A MUST SEE if passing through this area!!! read more

Stop here every summer on our way to Belle Creek, Montana. Just a great place to have a meal and a cold drink. This place will be part of your memories on your trip. read more

When I lived in South Dakota I would drive over to this saloon to get out of cell phone range and hide. The owner is great and it is just as you would expect from an old saloon in a town of 70 people. It is the only bar for about 40 miles either direction. read more

We were out riding and taking in the various scenery at the Sturgis 75th rally last year and stopped in the Stoneville Saloon to warm up and dry off since we got stuck in the rain. We had a quick bite to eat (great food!) and of all things, coffee! We love this place. The female bartender and another lady was working, but very friendly to us and eventually, someone else came in and we struck up a conversation. While I am not one to buy thirsts, I bought on that day as this is a place I do not want to forget! If I am ever in the area again, I will certainly stop in and say hi! read more
