Tips Up!
For us, Après is a vibe, and at Tips Up! we take it to a whole other level, too… When we are not pouring frosty brews and slinging hot tots with the best damn chicken sandwiches you have ever had, we are on the mountain too, carving up lines and ripping down trails. But when the lifts close, you can find us at Big Sky’s most popular bar full of live music, sweet swag, and the most bad-ass employees any ski town has ever seen. We work hard, we play hard, and our guests love it! Join our Tips Up! crew if shot skis, shuttle games, live music, a fast-paced kitchen, and fun-loving team members sounds rad to you!

El Camino
Nope, not the car. Not the song, either. But definitely like cruising downtown late at night with the top down and your favorite jams playing at full volume. ‘El Co.’ as we like to call it, is a fun and energetic environment full of people that love to dance, play the music too loud, and have a good time. The beers are always cold, and the jello-shots are always fresh on Downtown Bozeman’s largest patio space on Main Street. We feature major national music acts on a regular basis, and actively support our own local musicians and arts. Join El Co. if you love music, high-energy bar service, and a fun-loving team!

Happy Box
Do you know all the words to Whitney Houston’s songs? Can you Name That Song after the first three notes? Do you LOVE Asian Street Food and have a passion for homemade chili sauces?... If you answered YES! to any of these questions, then Happy Box Karaoke Bar is your new home for fun at work! The tunes are always spinning, and the sake and Tiki-inspired drinks are always flowing along side the most creative Asian Street Food around! Join our Happy Box team if decked-out, anime-themed private karaoke rooms, and a busy Tokyo-subway station vibe with a dueling wok station kitchen sound like sweet, sweet music to you!

Main Street Market
Downtown Bozeman’s newest hot spot for fresh coffee, pastries, sandwiches, and salads is Main Street Market. With five other local business shops located inside, Main Street Market’s open and flowing space is bustling with shoppers, coffee drinkers, and people-watchers, alike. Our kitchen team bakes fresh bread for our sandwiches daily, and are now famous for the giant cookies in our pastry window. We love getting to know our regulars, and don’t have to ask your name or coffee when we see them at the door. Join our Main Street Market Team if you like steaming lattes, mixing fresh salads, and being a part of a new, fun, and exciting environment of entrepreneurs and friends!

Kitty Warren
Kitty Warren was the colorful and eccentric madam of lore known for her discretion and seven brass beds in Downtown Bozeman. Like Kitty’s business, our underground speakeasy bar requires that you know someone to get in, or were given the secret password by one of our regulars. Down the twenty steps under Main Street, we mix classic cocktails with quality ingredients under dark red lights surrounded by velvet and leather booths and chairs while local DJ’s spin tracks to keep the vibe going. Sometimes our bartenders wear a skirt, sometimes they wear a three-piece suit… We don’t ask, and we don’t tell because it would ruin the suspense. Join our Kitty Warren team if your style is your own, you wouldn’t be caught dead shaking a Martini, and if a drop of Vermouth makes a difference to you!
