AleWorks is an iconic Bozeman place for fantastic food and drinks. The nightlife is great, and it is very family friendly as well (separate bar and eating areas). My family especially loves the fish tacos and French fries. We highly recommend this place for anyone visiting Bozeman!

Located downtown, Ted's is definitely a Montanan eatery at its best. Bison tends to be their specialty, but everything is tasty. The lemonade is fantastic, and the desserts are delectable. Ted's shares a building with the Bacchus Pub, which is a great place for drinks, nightlife, and enjoying downtown Bozeman.

(Main Street) This taco/ice cream place is a local favorite. The food is great, even if the portions are a little small, and I would recommend everything on the menu! There is also ice cream supplied by the Genuine Ice Cream Co. (a Bozeman company), and it is TO DIE FOR.

This is an amazing chocolate store that has two locations, one in the same building as Ted's on Main Street and another, larger one on Rouse. I believe the owner is French, and it is obvious how much dedication he puts into each chocolate. Unique flavors and beautiful presentations make this a must for anyone visiting.

This is a cute little new place just a few blocks from the property. Although my family hasn't eaten there yet, we have heard nothing but good things!

This is an adorable candy store on Main street that offers a variety of confectionary delights, including candy, chocolate, ice cream, and even an old-fashioned soda fountain. My kids love to get milkshakes here! We recommend the ice cream (made by Wilcoxson's, a Montana company), especially the moose tracks, Montana moose moss, or huckleberry flavors.

The Bay is a family favorite. Although it is located in the mall, don't let the location trick you into believing this is merely a food-court restaurant. Meals are unique and well-prepared, and it is fun for adults and is also family-friendly. We love the fig jam/prosciutto pizza, the chicken quesadillas, and all of the salads and burgers.

This is one of Bozeman's only sushi places, and many people believe for it to be the best. We love everything here, especially the spider roll. Considering we are surrounded by mountains here in the Gallatin valley, it is amazing how fresh the fish and rolls are. Definitely recommend this for a date night or an evening where you'd like a more upscale restaurant.

Authentic and delicious French food located downtown. My daughter's favorite thing is the Napoleon/mille-feulle, but we all love everything there. The owners are French, and if you happen to know a bit of the language they will probably converse with you in their native tongue. Usually a more quiet restaurant, but lovely food.

Parks & Nature
Bozeman is famous for its scenery, and Hyalite is no exception. A beautiful yet fairly small lake in the mountains to the south of the town, this is a favorite spot for locals to go to. The water is almost always chilly, but it's not usually unbearably cold. Paddle boards, kayaks, small boats, and rafts are all fun things to bring here. The fishing is pretty good, but the fish are usually smaller and are often endangered cutthroat species, which are illegal to keep. Several stunning hikes (with waterfalls!!) further up the road. Great place for kids/dogs/families/solo adventurers/groups... just about everyone!
Note: the gate to reach hyalite is closed in the winter months

Bozeman's closest ski area. This is where our family skis, and it is considered the place where the 'real' locals go to shred some powder. Their motto is "ski the cold smoke", and boy does it fit the bill. (Cold smoke = very light and fluffy powder snow that occurs when temperatures are very low). There are various types of terrain for skiers of all abilities. Hully Gully is probably the most famous run on the whole mountain, and if you get the chance, you should ask any passing skier or patrol how to find it. Amazing ski area in the winter, and beautiful hiking/biking spot in the summer. Must-see!!

This is local secret. Located just inside the boundary of Yellowstone National park, this is a naturally wonderful area where a boiling (hence the name) hot springs flows into the very cold Gardiner river and creates a mix of pleasantly warm water. Very fun in all seasons!
Notes: bring bathing suits, change of clothes, crocs/river shoes/ towels. There is a semi-long trail from the parking lot to the soaking spot, so don't come barefoot. There is no place to change except a restroom at the very beginning of the trail. And because it is in a river (there has been a natural pool created with rock walls), you should keep close watch on children if you are traveling with them.

A hidden gem about 30-45 minutes out of town. This is our favorite hot springs in the area! Always plenty of fun people to chat with, and the water is naturally sourced and feels fantastic (especially in the chillier months). In fact, I believe it is a true Montanan custom to soak your body in the warm water (in winter) while snow piles up on your head. Good poolside food here too. Definitely the most 'natural' of the area hot springs.
