Copper Whiskey Bar & Grill

What Copper Whiskey Bar & Grill does

Copper Whiskey Bar & Grill operates a single full-service restaurant and whiskey bar at 101 E. Main St in Bozeman, Montana, situated in a basement suite below Sweet Chili's Asian Bistro. The business serves daily dinner (3pm to close) with a full American comfort food menu and a curated, globally sourced rare whiskey collection available as pours, specialty cocktails, and tasting flights. A weekday happy hour (Mon–Fri 3–5pm and all day Sunday) and a phone-based to-go ordering line supplement the core dine-in service.

The underlying technology is entirely third-party and non-proprietary: Toasttab powers online ordering and gift card commerce, TripleSeat manages private dining and event inquiry workflows, and Uncorkd renders the digital whiskey list. The restaurant has no native mobile application, no API surface, and no AI or data-driven product components. The brand presence is a Squarespace-hosted marketing site with review collection routed through ReviewTrackers.

Revenue is generated through on-premise food and beverage sales (the dominant stream), private dining and ticketed events such as distillery tasting dinners, and gift card sales processed via Toasttab. The target customer base consists of local Bozeman residents and bar regulars, supplemented by visitors to the area. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; all menu and whiskey pour prices are available in-person or by phone. The business is privately held with no disclosed ownership structure, headcount, funding, or financial reporting.
