We all know that warm, hearty meals are essential for surviving a Montana winter (or at least making the most of the frigid temperatures). But it’s even better when you can enjoy those meals in a warm, cozy, intimate environment… and you don’t have to do the cooking.

The theme of the dining area at Bozeman’s Copper Whiskey Bar & Grill can be described as rustic elegance, but you won’t be out of your comfort zone there — the menu is full of classic entrees you’ll recognize. They just come artfully presented on the plate. 

The Copper Whiskey Bar & Grill is located on Bozeman’s bustling Main Street, where it has been since its 2013 opening.

There’s no doubt that this place is primarily a whiskey bar — you’ll find over 150 varieties on the bar shelves — but it’s so much more.
