It may be a mere 16 miles from Montana’s largest city, Billings, but Acton, Montana, is as tiny of a town as it gets. Less than 200 people call Acton home, and there really aren’t many amenities to speak of.

However, Acton is the home of one of Montana’s best hidden gems, 3 North Bar & Grill. This unpretentious eatery just happens to serve some of the best steaks you’ll ever be lucky enough to try.

3 North Bar & Grill is located right on Highway 3 North in Acton.

Believe it or not, this place was originally the town post office. Then, it spent some time as Acton Bar.
