INSPIRED AMERICAN CUISINE AND GREAT STEAKS

My wife, a picky eater but no stranger to great food, has her socks consistently rocked when we dine at Urban Kitchen. Make reservations, especially if you plan on dining at Urban Kitchen on the weekend. If you don’t, see the hostess; they do have some open seating available by the bar area, but you may have to wait for a while.

The restaurant and bar have a rustic-modern open floor plan, with wooden accents that complete the ambiance. The restaurant itself is divided into three main areas: the bar, with tall tables and chairs; a long hallway, with bench seating along the wall; and a cozy den area, with a massive bull elk head on the wall as the centerpiece. If you are having a pre-dinner cocktail, I’d order the UK Maggie (Tequila) or the Red “G” Hound (Vodka). They are both refreshing and delicious without being overly sweet or boozy. 

Speaking of delicious, I hope you come with an appetite. Everything on the menu has been meticulously thought out and prepared with the sole purpose of delivering the most satisfaction in every bite. Choosing a hand-crafted steak knife for the Tomahawk (a best shared, off the menu, 50-ounce bone-in ribeye steak) is definitely entertaining. But do yourself a favor and order the Bok Choy to start and the Pan Seared Duck Breast as the main course. They are delightful and pair beautifully with a nice bottle of Pinot Noir.

We think you will love Urban Kitchen if you want your dinner to be an experience.

Local’s Tip:

The bartenders at UK are always experimenting with spirit infusions and all kinds of tasty cocktail concoctions. Ask them so sample some of their latest work, if you’re interested in trying something exciting that you have probably never had before.

ON-THE-RANGE CLASSICS, JUST OFF THE BEATEN PATH.

Our menu is designed to awaken the tastebuds and satisfy hunger by delivering an authentic Montana culinary experience with a unique perspective. We have brought together a variety of cultures and fresh flavors inspired by local purveyors, seasonal ingredients, and classic preparations to serve you the absolute best of the old west.

Iconic cafe specialized in American home cooking

With classic swivel diner stools that line up the counter, a pie cooler displaying the freshly baked goodies of the day and a no-nonsense menu loved by farmers and bankers alike, it’s no wonder why the Western Cafe is easily one of Bozeman’s longest-standing local institutions. The building has been there since the 1870s, but it didn’t start serving food until the 1940s. This place has Montana personality written all over it.

You can’t go wrong with ordering a classic favorite like French toast (made from cinnamon rolls) or biscuits and gravy (made with locally sourced pork). However, you should try the hand-cut Chicken Fried Steak served with sausage gravy, hash browns, two farm-fresh eggs, and your choice of toast. It single-handedly is worth the price of admission and does not disappoint.

If you want an old school American diner experience with a farm-fresh twist, we think you will love hanging your hat before your meal at The Western Cafe.

Local’s Tip:

If you want to secure a spot without waiting long, get here before 8:30am. The Western Cafe isn’t huge, so it fills up fast with families and hungry customers, especially on weekends.
