There’s A Restaurant In This Old Stable In Montana And You’ll Want To Visit

With a population of 372, Emigrant is a tiny town by any definition. That being said, it's certainly not without its character or its charms. All it takes is one visit to the Old Saloon to see that.

The Old Saloon is located at 210 Railroad Ln.

Emigrant is such a small community, though, that you really can't miss this place.

The saloon dates back to 1902, and although it has been renovated, it still maintains its historic charms.

This spot was originally opened to service the rail line passing through the Paradise Valley en route to Yellowstone National Park. Although it closed in 1920 during the Prohibition era, it was reopened in 1962 by the son of Abe Armstrong, the man who rebuilt the saloon after a 1907 fire tried to claim it.

The saloon remains a gathering place for locals, tourists, cowboys and professionals alike...

... and since the addition of the adjacent Livery Stable, it's only gotten better.

The Livery Stable is appropriately named -- it's made from an actual stable dragged down the hill in the 1970s and attached to the Old Saloon.

The Livery Stable serves hearty breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily.

From smothered breakfast burritos to burgers, steaks, and chicken dinners, you'll see a little bit of everything here, and it's family-friendly.

During the summer, the party moves outdoors, and everyone enjoys live music and BBQ...

... but you'll find a seat at the table any time of year.

The Old Saloon and the Lively Stable are open 7 days a week, so you'll have plenty of opportunities to go.

The saloon stays open until 2 a.m., while the stable serves dinner until 9 p.m. every night.

These old school eateries always have so much character. The Jersey Lilly is another must-see.
