There are a few contenders, but where are they?

The small towns of Montana don't have any secret bars because they only have one or two spots packed with locals. The best place to find hidden bars will be in the larger cities.

Bars in Montana's larger cities can hide around corners or areas highly trafficked by roads.

The first bar we believe is one of Montana's secret bars is Three In The Side in Missoula.

Three In The Side is in the heart of downtown, but it's a blink-and-miss-it spot.

This basement bar has drinks, food, and several pool tables to enjoy with friends. The prices are affordable and a nice change of pace from the establishments above.

Another secret bar in Montana is the 19th Hole Bar in Bozeman.

The 19th Hole is off Frontage Road and 19th Avenue tucked away. This bar is worth the visit.
