Best Bars & Nightlife in Jackson Hole

Jackson Hole nightlife runs the gamut from historic Western saloons to modern craft cocktail bars. The town has a drinking culture that reflects its ski town roots—people work hard, play hard, and know how to have a good time. Just don't expect it to go too late; most bars close by midnight or 1am, and the après-ski crowd starts early.

The Million Dollar Cowboy Bar is the iconic Jackson spot—saddle barstools, country music, and enough Western character to satisfy any visitor's expectations. It's touristy, yes, but also genuinely fun and historically significant. Live music most nights, dancing when it gets going.

Silver Dollar Bar & Grill at the Wort Hotel offers a more refined version of Western bar culture. The bar is inlaid with (you guessed it) silver dollars, and live bluegrass and country acts perform regularly. Good food too, if you need something to soak up the drinks.

For craft cocktails, Bin22 wine bar does interesting drinks alongside their wine program, and The Spur at Teton Village has elevated the cocktail game in the Village. Melvin Dojo combines craft beer (from Melvin Brewing) with Asian-American bar food and live music on Wednesdays.

The Virginian Saloon is the local dive—less polished than the tourist spots but more authentic. Pool tables, cheap drinks, and a crowd that actually lives here year-round.
