Sometimes a quiet restaurant meal will do… but there are certain occasions in life when dinner needs to be more than a meal. And that’s when you should check out one of these unique adventures. There’s nothing better than a meal that’s also entertaining.
1. Go on a special sleigh ride adventure at the Lone Mountain Ranch in Big Sky.
Lone Mountain Guest Ranch offers a dining experience you'll never forget. You'll take a peaceful 20 minute sleigh ride to a cozy cabin, where you'll be treated to a full prime rib dinner.
Address: 750 Lone Mountain Ranch Rd, Gallatin Gateway, MT 59730
2. Take a ride on Montana's premiere dinner train.
The Charlie Russell Chew Choo offers a three hour train ride that departs from Lewistown and takes you through some of the most beautiful parts of Central Montana. Plus, you get a full prime rib dinner, dessert, and a "hold up" by masked bandits.
Address: 408 NE Main St, Lewistown, MT 59457
3. Eat steak and beans in an old bank from 1914.
The Jersey Lilly, located in the tiny community of Ingomar, got its start as Wiley, Clark and Greening Bankers. It's now one of Montana's favorite restaurants, and sometimes the drive there is an adventure... but the real "adventure" comes when you have to use the outhouse.
Address: 105 Main St, Ingomar, MT 59039
4. Enjoy a meal among mermaids while being serenaded by classics from Piano Pat.
Sure, The Sip 'N Dip Lounge won't give you the best food you've ever had, but we dare you to find a more original dining experience in Montana than this.
Address: 17 7th St S, Great Falls, MT 59401
5. Experience a farm dinner at Rainbow Valley Lodge.
On certain summer evenings, the Rainbow Valley Lodge in Ennis hosts delicious farm dinners. $60 gets you a full meal (including beer and wine) with appetizers, fresh produce from the gardens, locally raised meats, tasty desserts and live music.
Address: 4781 US-287, Ennis, MT 59729
6. Go back in time and have a chuckwagon dinner.
Z5 Ranch in Arlee hosts old-fashioned Montana chuckwagon dinners, complete with horse-drawn wagon rides, traditional Native American music and performances, delicious food, and cowboy poetry. It's an experience like no other.
Address: 1300 Coombs Ln, Arlee, MT 59821
