Guidebook for Bozeman
Food Scene
Best bakery in town. Go buy a loaf of bread, any of their pastries, and pro tip: sandwiches available after 10:30am keep well for hiking or road trips. Favorites are the almond croissant, Russian tea cake/Mexican wedding cookies, carrot cake, turkey & havarti sandwich, and any of the freshly-baked breads.

This is an expansion of our favorite bakery, Wild Crumb! More sandwich options made-to-order instead of pre-made. A nice selection of cheeses, meats, and house-made salads.

This is a can't-miss if you are in Bozeman during the week (they are only open during the daytime M-F)! Some of the best caramels you will ever have. Stop by for free tastings of ALL their caramels. They sell imperfect "reject" caramels at a discounted rate (usually 20% off retail), and sandwich bags of bulk (unwrapped) caramel for $5.

Favorite restaurant in Bozeman. Unlike many establishments where the price you pay for a meal ends in letdown, Blackbird is worth every penny. Be sure to order the burrata from the appetizer menu. Wine by the carafe.

Great lunch spot. Not a "traditional" taco shop by any means, but check out their menu for their unique offerings. Our favorites are the Korean and Santa Fe styles, and we highly recommend the barbacoa or pork. RIght near campus, so be aware of the late night scene - they are open for lunch and dinner, in addition to 10pm-3am!

Favorite pizza in town. Go here for lunch, when they serve bigger-than-plate-sized "Jurassic" pizza by the slice. Great gluten-reduced beer, with non-alcoholic house brewed ginger and root beer.

Parks & Nature
Google photos... this place speaks for itself. World-class ice climbing in the winter, and incredibly easy access. You can be from our home to the reservoir in under 30 minutes. Rent a SUP or kayak from Bob Ward's or Roundhouse, or just take a picnic. Everything from Grotto Falls and Palisade Falls, both of which are wheelchair accessible, to Hyalite Peak and Blackmore, which are strenuous, full-day-hike peaks. Backpacking abounds too.

Nice trail up a sloping hill to a beautiful overlook of Bozeman. Benches along trail, come here to see everyone and their 3 dogs each! Connects with Main St. to Mountains Community Trail, so recommendation is to park at the Public Library or Lindley Park. You can make this a nice stroll, or a true hike, as short or as long as you want!

Not quite a "natural" hot spring... cheap entry and great proximity to town. Recently remodeled outdoor area. Recommend going in the evening when the lights are on and there may be live music, and so the teenagers making out are hidden by steam! Family-friendly, no alcohol allowed.
