"This 63 mile drive from Cooke City to Red Lodge is an awesome experience. Plan a full day for the round trip and do it on a day when weather is great. You will experience a lot, spectacular mountains, alpine lakes, wild flowers, snow/glaciers and difficult yet rewarding drive (beartooth pass is over 3300m high) It takes about 3 hours with minimum stops, be sure to bring OFF and layered clothes."
google maps says 1 more hour from start of Bear Tooth to Yodeler in Red Lodge. Random guy says allow an extra 1.5 hours to stop at a few overlooks.
Red Lodge restaurants:
Bridge Creek Backcountry Kitchen & Winebar http://www.eatfooddrinkwine.com/ people like it a lot, but it doesn't look like too much stuff that the kids would want to eat (no burgers or chicken tenders)
Sam's Taproom and Kitchen: people like it, some people say there are lot of children there at lunch, they do have burgers, etc. http://redlodgeales.com/sams-tap-room/menu/
