Just a few years ago, winter outdoor dining in Montana would have been an impossible dream. But thanks to the recent igloo dining trend, it’s not only possible but often preferable to indoor dining. This winter, Missoula’s Iron Griz has set up igloos for special dining experiences. Feast on delicious American cuisine inside your own private space while looking out at the snow.

The Iron Griz is located at 515 South Avenue in Missoula, behind the UM Campus Dining South Avenue.
