Decent food fun atmosphere. Here during an event so they were busier than they ever are. In spite of this the servers were friendly and did their best. Would come back if in town again. Nice outdoor seating area. read more

It was a great place to get a late dinner. It's a Bar, so think Bar Food. And it's solid! The tater tots beat out the fries for sure. Do yourself a favor and get the Cheese Curds!! Everyone in our party was pleased and Cricket was the best server! Everyone there was so nice and attentive! Good food, good service, good atmosphere! read more

We stopped at the restaurant on July 4th at 2pm. Two waitresses working the patio covering 8-9 tables, not a difficult split. Nonetheless, we waited 45 minutes after our waitress brought drinks before another employee came out and took our order. We order a sandwich and two salads, nothing extraordinary. We waited and waited and waited, another 45 minutes before food finally arrived. I don't leave bad reviews often but this restaurant deserves a bad review. The only place in town and no need to do better I guess. Disappointing. Would not recommend. Travel to Eureka if you're hungry. It will be a much shorter wait and more options. read more

Fresh off the grill food, great service and the beer was cold. A must visit. Fried chicken, steak and catfish salad was our choices.

Love the atmosphere. The food is all amazing and the help is super amazing! Misty always has a smile and hug for you! We have been going here for almost 8 years. Until we finally moved here this is the first place we would hit coming into town! You will never be disappointed read more

Jenny my server was working hard and she was an angel she made it a very pleasant experience . read more

Used to be one of our favorite spots. But tonight, our disappointment can't be understated. We will not eat here again for a very long time. I've read other reviews where Canadians have felt ignored and would not return, we had no idea what that meant. But tonight we experienced that. Tonight we wanted to go there to watch some football and have some of their amazing fried chicken. We arrive around 4:45 and ordered around 4:50. We were told there would be a delay because they were running a fund raiser, where they were giving their fried chicken meals for free, and you could give a donation if you chose. Which we did. I ordered the catfish with curly fries, and my husband ordered the chicken meal with onion ring appy. An hour later, our beers were empty, and the servers all walked by us numerous times without asking if we needed refills. At that point we understood they were busy, and I finally stopped someone and asked if we could get a couple more beers. 45 minutes after that, we started noticing locals coming in and being served immediately, and receiving their appy's, then their meals quite quickly. I stopped another server and asked what was happening, and she said sorry, it's because we had an order of chicken, and that our meals were next. Which was untrue as I watched a couple come in and be served before our meals came. finally we decided to pay for our beer and leave without our food, even though we had already donated more than our "free chicken dinner" was worth. (Not that that's a factor, we were happy to contribute) 2.5 hours later, around 7:30, and a total of 4 full tables of people being served before us, we walked out with our meals to go. once we got home we discovered our Jojo fries were inedible and burnt/over cooked. And the entire meal was mediocre at best. We have always loved the Frontier, but this treatment has left us feeling unwelcome. We will take note of that and will not be back. Disappointed beyond belief. read more

I heard this place had great fried chicken so it was on my radar. The bar is cute offering in & outside seating. The drinks were made to the perfect spiciness and chicken had good flavor. read more

Great food and service friendly staff. Worth going to, no regrets. We've been there before and it is a go to place. Best chicken ever and a steak sandwich to die for. read more

We love going here in the summer so we can sit outside to eat. Great food. Great atmosphere.

Such a fun atmosphere and great service! Best hamburger and steak in the area!! Consistently good drinks from the bar.

Frontier Bar & Grill Love, love, love this place. Always open when I call in and the service and my steak sandwiches are always so good and tender. Thank you for your kindness and wonderful food. Reminds me of Mom's homemade food :) My husband loves the fried catfish. read more

I'm a local and this is where I go when I'm in the mood for fried chicken and a cold Fresh Squeezed on tap. Playing some video poker while I'm waiting for my meal is a plus. Feels like Montana here! read more

Best service and fried chicken in Northern Montana! They serve over 5 tons of chicken a year and it is marinated and beautifully fried. Chicken dinner is $9.50 and comes with 4 pieces and a side. All potatoes are hand cut..jo jo's and curly fries are tasty. Craft beer on tap and you are treated like a local! read more

The Frontier Bar - a burger and onion rings - American Near Me - Rexford, Montana

A very humble little road takes you down off the highway to Rexford town, and a nearly hidden place they call the Frontier. In Montana, these little roads can bring you to some of the best memories of your life. The Frontier offers a safe, sheltered place to camp. Friendly fun, kids with folks til after dinner. In the heart of the Kootenai Forest, NE of Libby and in a beautiful ravine created by generations of heaving lava, melting glaciers and ice rivulets, is a pristine valley. You drive around a stunning 75 mile lake that runs from Libby right into Canada. That's Lake Kookanusa, and there's a small town that has actually been uprooted and moved 3 times, against their will. That's Rexford. You've reached the real Montana Frontier, where more battles have been lost than won. You see, a river ran through what was a steep, deep valley here, and in places like that things naturally tend to happen, from rockslides to rivers. Winters are long, forest fires harsh, and life otherwise can be a rocky road for residents here...so stop in to a spend a little money, and enjoy the hardy spirits, leave a bit of cheer. Rather than keeping the rare Kokanee Salmon protected in the natural river here forever, power companies and the Feds conspired to call the shots. Richard Nixon damned the river, and moved everyone from Rexford II - hofurther up the long ravine toward Eureka. Hopefully, these families have been displaced for their last time. Visit the Frontier bar to visit these survivors of (others) fortune. Thank goodness the massive lake that was created by the dam is so beautiful. Appaently somehow, a rare sturgeon got up there from the Columbia so maybe that species can be saved, for a little while. The Frontier bar is really a restaraunt, that happens to have a full bar. It's a sprawling log building in downtown Rexford III - it's tucked tightly into the remaining valley above the water line. No wind will whip your tent, here. You can leave your RV within eyesight of the bar, and go in to ask about the best spot. Folks in plaid will look at you with curiosity. Smile have a beer and say: Howdy - got any camping stories? They'll keep you entertained all night, for free, and probably even buy you a beer. (Hope you're not afraid of bears - they sow up in story-telling round here) No worries, Griz usually stays up in higher country...so camp down in the valleys in high country - otherwise you jest might git what you deserve for ignoring local wisdom. Smaller bears are only interested in smelly things and food, and a bit of noise will make em run off, unless you are in a year-round campground with trash cans. You can trust MT people in Pendleton Plaid, they'll even look out for ya. So relax and chat. Visitors, please, NO flirting in small town culture! Folks have to live it down, if folks misperceive what's goin on. Just be human and have a good time. Gentlemen, kindly apologize before you cuss, or you'll be considered an unworthy rogue. Local fellers might toss you put on yer ear if you cop an attitude - or disrespect women. Saw my dad do that more than once, with the approving nod and full cooperation of the all-observing Bartender to drop the deserving cuss outside, once he'd been discreetly knocked (even more) senseless with a single punch. Sure, rapid, no-talkback bouncing goes on - so control your disgusting city behaviours around the hard-working loggers and ranchers who are just tryin to relax. Yer in their town now, Mister. One more story. My dad and a spontaneous Posse also quickly cleaned house at the Wayside in Trout Creek one time. Tolerance around respectful racists is practiced, but not if you get rude. Limits get set. So dad & other Pub regulars invited outside and cleaned the clocks of a bunch of bad-mouthed city Skin-heads - who wouldn't stop using the N-word and loud foul language when asked. Make no mistake, these crusty and disabled Montanans who are unafraid to teach and enforce cultural courtesy - are also aging Korean War Vets. They invited the dang punks outside and did it up right. No more problem with Skinheads in Trout Creek, now that's fer sure! Country gals feel safer knowing a Pendleton Posse will help get a jerk off their backside if needed. (Wise to step away from a Clod, before someone thinks assistance is necessary!) At Yahoo, I saw Posted about the Frontier: by bigmama 06/18/2006 Best Steak & Chicken Ever: If you want a Great Steak or Deep Fried Chicken, A Big Bugar with or with out cheese and a Good Salad, Jo's Jo's, Garlic Toast and a Soft Drink.

Such a wonderful tasty little find in Montana. Great service and very yummy fried chicken. Full bar and they have local favorite live bands. Great location to sit outside or inside with a cold beverage, great food and wonderful people read more

The Frontier! One of the mainstay restaurant/bars in this area, the Frontier is the place to go if you want a true Montana dining and bar experience. Set back in the small town of Rexford, the Frontier has some of the best Steaks and Fried Chicken I've ever had. Wooden decor, outdoor patio, good for families. Drinks are cheap, food is pretty reasonable too, and the service is ok. Just be warned that they cant be pretty snobby to out of towners, especially if you look like it! But it's a good place to get some eats and hang out with some taxidermied animals. One of my favorite places to get some grub in this area. Beware though, the women's bathroom doesn't have a door, so it's a real "outhouse" kind of experience! read more

The Frontier is the place to go when in the area, the drinks are great, the fried chicken was fantastic and all of the sides were delicious. One of the best things about this place is the people and the wait staff. read more

Not our cup of tea, not to say it was bad but the prices were way too high. The curly fries were almost baked not fried or reheated and extremely greasy and not at all crispy. When we walked in and asked for a menu the girl server looked at us like we had 2 heads. It was our first time in so excuse us for not knowing. A simple explanation would have been a much better approach. It was a disappointment and the snobbiness was less then appreciated. read more

We desired to take the long way around from WA to Glacier. We had to decided that we would stop here to get something to eat. When we pulled in and figured out it was a camp site we were concerned but we're hungry. But everything was perfect from the friendly staff to the amazing food. The chicken was to die for! Our daughter said all fried chicken will be compared to this now. We even decided to stay the night. Nice people, awesome food. read more

This place is all about the atmosphere and it's so fun. The burgers and fries are good, the beer is cold and out of a mason jar. Drinks are good and cheap. If your in town you must stop here as long as you have no problems with lots of dead animals on the wall read more

Get the fried chicken. The menu is limited, and it is straight forward meat and potatoes type food - but sometimes that is all you want. The head waitress here ROCKS. She does not allow anything to hold her back and she will keep you on your toes all night. The place is full of furs and traps, and pulls in people from all walks. Definitely worth a visit and they keep a decent selection of local beers on tap that is sure to meet most people's liking. read more
