Food scene
Just steps from our house, Cafe Kandahar is a favorite. The "Snug Bar" is a great cozy bar off the living room area where you can go for a cocktail and enjoy a fire in the living room. The restaurant is widely celebrated in Montana but you need to be in the mood for 'foodie' food and white table cloth/multiple courses. You can also order restaurant food to the Snug Bar off a condensed menu.

Fun for divey food (pizza, burgers) and after ski/bike/hike beers. Frequently with live music. Decks have good views. Very close to the condo.

Our favorite on resort dining option. A historic 80s ski bar/restaurant with great cocktails, beer and delicious (if not fancy) food. The nachos are famous (and enormous). Great for apres hike/bike/ski if you want a sit down meal and drinks.

Surprisingly great sushi (especially if fresh) for an inland spot. Trendy scene. Also can do takeout but call early. Pricey.

Great pizza, especially cauliflower crust for gluten free (or not, my husband isnt GF and prefers it!) and great beer selection. Great spot for kids with a few games. Outdoor seating in the back.
