ABOUT THE IRON GRIZ
Iron Griz: American Bistro sits along the University of Montana Golf Course and offers a seasonal menu built around garden-to-table dining. Much of our produce is harvested just steps from the kitchen, straight from the Iron Griz Garden.
​
Open from May to August, Iron Griz is a summer dining spot with patio seating, views of the course, and a relaxed setting that highlights the best of Montana’s growing season.
Fresh food, local flavor, and a garden out front.
That’s what we bring to the table.
COMMITTED TO SUSTAINABILITY
Iron Griz is part of the University of Montana’s Farm to College program, a long-standing effort to bring Montana-grown food into campus dining. The ingredients we serve often come from nearby ranches, orchards, and farms.
Many of them are family-run and focused on sustainable practices.
Our kitchen team works with Campus Dining’s sourcing partners to choose products that reflect the quality and diversity of what’s grown in Montana.
From local grains and dairy to regionally raised meats, Farm to College helps keep our menu rooted in the state we call home.
