Frontier Bar and Supper Club

Frontier Bar and Supper Club on North Merrill Avenue in Glendive is one of eastern Montana's most enduring dining establishments, operating in the supper club tradition that defined rural American dining through much of the twentieth century. Glendive, situated on the Yellowstone River near the North Dakota border, is a working town with an oil and agricultural economy, and the Frontier Bar reflects that character: unpretentious, filling, and consistently reliable for those who know what they are getting. The Montana beef prime rib is the kitchen's anchor offering — slow-roasted and served on Friday and Saturday evenings in the classic supper club fashion, often accompanied by a relish tray and soup. Chicken-fried steak represents another supper club essential, a hand-breaded cut fried to order and covered in cream gravy. Huckleberry pie closes the meal with a Montana-specific sweetness that functions as both a regional signature and a dessert capable of converting the sceptical. The bar operates throughout service hours, offering Montana beers on tap alongside a full bar selection. The dining room has the worn-in comfort of a place that has served the same community for generations: vinyl booths, a drop ceiling, and staff who know the regulars by name. Travelers on Interstate 94 passing through eastern Montana consistently rate the Frontier Bar as one of the more reliable full-service meals available between Billings and the North Dakota border.
