Beartooth Cafe – Cooke City

Open from late May to late September, the Beartooth Café in Cooke City, Montana, sits squarely in the heart of Soda Butte Valley amidst some of the most spectacular views in the Beartooth Mountains. Travelers from around the world as well as many colorful locals have enjoyed the awesome presence of Pilot and Index Peaks, Republic Peak, and Rams Pasture while eating lunch or dinner on “The Deck.”

The Café is a beautiful old log structure consistent with the rugged feel of the Absaroka Beartooth Wilderness of surrounding Cooke City. The inside of the Café offers an enjoyable experience with a decor including everything from antique beers signs to mining artifacts. We have fine art by local artists and photographs of past employees and customers. The beer cooler housing over 130 beers from almost as many breweries, is itself worth a look and a sample! All of this is wrapped up into a cozy atmosphere of music, laughter, and good cheer. We are an establishment that is not only a restaurant, but a destination.
