Montana is known as the Last Best Place, but many a lifelong Montanan will lament that it isn’t what it used to be. That being said, there are still plenty of spots that embody an old school Montana vibe. Buffalo Joe’s Eatery and Saloon is certainly one of them, and it’s worth making the drive to Dupuyer to see. Besides, if you eat too much delicious prime rib, you can spend the night at the on-site motel!
Buffalo Joe’s Eatery and Saloon is located in the tiny town of Dupuyer, about 85 miles northwest of Great Falls.
MarlaAnne J M / TripAdvisor As of 2010, Dupuyer had a population of 86, so it’s safe to say there’s not much to it.
But Buffalo Joe’s is all the reason you need to stop in this rural area.

Stop by on any given day and you’ll see friendly locals at the bar as well as out-of-staters just passing by.
