You know your restaurant is in a remote location when your slogan is “Where the hell is Roscoe?” And that’s exactly what people say when you recommend they have dinner at the Grizzly Bar and Grill. Roscoe is a tiny unincorporated community located about 20 miles from Red Lodge. It has about 15 residents, a post office, a guest ranch, and one of the best steakhouses in the area. And that’s pretty much it. You’ll want to seek out this remote restaurant in Montana.
The Grizzly Bar and Grill is about as "Montana" as it gets. Surrounded on all sides by cattle ranches, it’s got the classic decor you’d expect from a remote restaurant: a mounted bear at the entrance, antlers on the wall, and a few local cowboys sitting at the bar. Since there are so few locals, the Grizzly Bar depends on tourists and Montanans who are willing to take a long drive for a meal. They get quite a few patrons from Billings, which is 72 miles away.

But one good thing about having a "middle of nowhere" restaurant is that the surrounding scenery is absolutely beautiful. It’s near the picturesque East Rosebud River, and the highways that reach it are surrounded by green, rolling hills that will have you feeling like you’re driving through paradise.
