We are committed to exceptional fresh food and the environment by growing our natural produce using high density farming with organic fertilizers, minimizing our waste by composting all organic matter produced by the restaurant, and recycling everything from glass bottles to our vegetable oil for biodiesel.

The Greenbriar Inn was built in 1873 as a home, general store, and post office for the town of Altona, which was a supply and transportation center for the miners of Left Hand Canyon, Jamestown, and Ward. The post office closed in 1916 after mining activity declined. In the early 1920's, the general store was converted into a gas station, which operated until the early 1960s. In 1967, the property was sold and transformed into The Greenbriar Inn. Today, The Greenbriar Inn continues a 42-year tradition of exceptional cuisine and elegant service.
