New Atlas Bar
About This Spot
Stepping into New Atlas Bar is like entering a cherished corner of Columbus where time gently slows and stories linger in the wood grain and worn brass fixtures. This historic watering hole, with over a century etched into its walls, carries a quiet warmth that invites both locals and visitors to settle in and savor a moment of genuine connection in Montana’s vast landscape.
The atmosphere here is comfortably lived-in yet alive with character — where the soft murmur of conversations blends with the clink of glasses, and the room holds traces of generations past through vintage artwork, an eclectic collection of taxidermy, and that unmistakable old-world charm. It’s the kind of place where familiar faces gather alongside curious newcomers, creating a tapestry of stories that feel both intimate and expansive.
Around the bar, the pace hums with a relaxed energy, perfect for lingering over a cold beer while sharing slices of Ruthie’s beloved pizza or unwinding from the Montana chill. The experience balances hearty comforts with a profound sense of place — a reminder that sometimes the best evenings unfold where history and hospitality meet under one well-worn roof.

The most amazing hometown bar. Long live the new atlas! Ruthie’s pizza will live forever in our hearts! No place better on a cold night with nowhere else to be.

This bar is over 100 years old — it’s not just a bar, it’s living history. Walking inside feels like stepping into a museum, full of character and stories from the past. If you’re interested in history and want to experience it firsthand while enjoying a cold beer, this is the perfect place. A true Montana gem!

This 2 wall front, back set. Brunswick Bar is one of the nicest Bars I've ever seen. Very well preserved, all original wood. 1mercury mirror has been replaced. 103yrs old. If your ever in Columbus Montana. It's a really cool place.

One of our favorite bars in Montana. The atmosphere is unique, with plenty of taxidermied animals of various quality plus lots of vintage artwork and pictures and a cool old bar. Often a nice mix of local patrons and visitors.
