After a long day in Yellowstone, treat yourself to the only Gardiner bar & restaurant directly overlooking the Yellowstone River! With indoor and deck seating and featuring a menu with a wide selection of appetizers, entrees and cold beverages, the Iron Horse is sure to offer something for everyone!
The Iron Horse has a friendly, local feel to it - a place where you can come as you are and enjoy a great meal with your cold microbrew, wine, or cocktail while you take in the sights of the countless pieces of memorabilia, historical photos, and oddities mounted on the walls and ceiling. Or, you can sit back and relax out on our great big patio, overlooking the Yellowstone River. From Yellowstone National Park, turn left onto Stone Street and then take your first right onto our drive - we are just behind the hardware store next to the Gardiner bridge. If you pass the condos, you've gone too far! If you're coming from the north end of Gardiner, just take a right on Stone Street and then take your first right! We offer a variety of menu choices from Elk Tacos and Buffalo Burgers to house smoked pulled pork and ribs, Rocky Mountain Trout, and vegetarian lasagna. A full bar complete with local craft beers and unique specialty cocktails will quench your summer thirst while you enjoy scenic views of Yellowstone National Park's first entrance town. Come join us to enjoy the Montana summer while it lasts!
