Buck’s is a Big Sky institution, a cornerstone of the community for 75 years. Everything about it - design, service, events, food - represents the spirit of Montana.

Buck’s will make its return in late 2025, re-establishing itself as a community hub for

locals, especially residents of employee housing next door, families with kids at the nearby school, as well as a must-visit spot for visitors to experience the magic of Montana.

Buck’s is the place for :

Casual, thoughtfully crafted food in multiple spaces with menus tailored for each - everything from a quick bison burger and a beer to lingering over a double cut pork chop and bottle of red from the carefully curated list. A night out with friends for drinks and live music. Private Events : warm, downhome, with a true sense of place, ideal for  corporate retreats, rehearsal dinners, birthdays, and lots more.
