2 Best Bars in Cody, Sheridan, and Northern Wyoming, Wyoming

Offering one of the region's largest selections of draft and bottled beer, a large patio, and live music on weekend evenings, this festive downtown bar is a fun place to shoot pool and meet the locals. The pub fare is pretty tasty, too, from Rocky Mountain "oysters" to prodigious burgers.

Nestled beneath a red-rock cliff an hour northeast of Thermopolis in the quirky cowboy town of Ten Sleep, this terrific craft brewery makes for a fun side trip or an enjoyable stop while driving through the Cloud Peak Wilderness area. And if you'd rather not drive back after partaking of a local ale, you're welcome to pitch a tent on the property's seasonal campground.
