Reviews on Bar food in Helena, Montana, United States. Although the once glittering Last Chance Creek has long dried up, Helena's Gold Rush history is reflected in its preserved architecture, from the spires of St. Helena Cathedral and the Queen Anne style Original Governor's Mansion to the restored miner's village of Reeder's Alley and the oldest house in the city, Pioneer Cabin. For those seeking adventure, the paths of Mount Helena Park provide ample activity. Helena also offers much in the way of arts and culture with theaters and galleries.

On our last night in Helena, long time friends with whom we were visiting suggested we go out for dinner. This restaurant is out-of-town, but because Helena was hosting an art walk that night, they wanted to avoid the crowds in the central area.Looking to have something light to eat, my spouse and I both ordered the Neptune Salad made with baby shrimp, "krab," and garnished with sliced egg and tomato. I had the small plate at $10.95 while my husband had the large at $13.95. Oh my! Both servings were humongous-- more than either of us could eat!! Big Portions in the Big Sky!While there was nothing special about these seafood salads, except for the size, they were good and satisfied both of us.

Went here for dinner two nights ago and it was an absolute joke. My husband ordered a burger that had ZERO seasoning in the patty and he had to drown it in ketchup to make it edible. My father-in-law got chicken strips which my husband wishes he ordered instead because there was at least flavor in those. I ordered a grilled cheese since I wasn't that hungry but it was terrible. The cheese wasn't melted AT. ALL. I could've saved the $4.50 and made one at home that was better. And I ordered mac n cheese for my baby since she loves mac n cheese and she refused to eat it after one taste. It was pathetic. It was just Kraft with blended cheese sprinkled on top. I don't blame her for turning her nose up at it! We make better HOME MADE mac n' cheese at home. But we were out of town for the night and heard decent things about this place. That's when I realized the only praise came from people over 50 or people that like to drink there. NEVER GOING BACK WE'LL BE GOING TO SHELLY'S NEXT TIME. BYE.

I recently visited this restaurant/pub after a long day on the road. It was convenient to my hotel (Holiday Inn Express) and the wide choice of brews on tap and ambiance were promising. I was ravenous and eagerly awaited my menu choice - a cheese steak quesadilla- described as sliced grilled steak laden with cheese and supported with awesome menu pictures. What arrived however was a huge disappointment. The beef was actually finely ground beef, LIGHTLY sprinkled in the very center of the quesadilla and very little cheese. One slice had no beef at all! Disappointed, I complained to the waitress. She was great and very sympathetic. She replaced it but the second one wasnât much better. Priced at $10 the dish was reasonably priced but not at all as described.

Wonderful wine selections and extremely knowledgeable waitstaff in an inviting and comfortable atmosphere. It was nice to be able to get a small tasting before ordering a glass of wine. They obviously aim to please.

Strange to talk about grilled cheese at a tavern in the middle of no where...but I would drive miles for the grilled cheese at the York bar. It's a funky place, loud and attracts a peculiar group of people from locals to bikers. Service can be slow but the grilled cheese and Berger are worth the wait.l

This is Helenaâs go to for drinks after work and appetizers. It is especially nice to sit on the patio in the summer weather. Plenty of meat and fish dishes but this vegetarian would appreciate more vegetarian friendly items. Most of the salads come with chicken or fish . They are happy to take it off. Nice bar and friendly staff in bar and restaurant. Very busy place during legislative sessions!

Very comfortable restaurant with attentive staff. The menu is huge with innovative and delicious salads . The pork braised sprout salad cane with generous slices of Brie. Try the veggie nachos, sooo good! Lots of desserts and great beer and wine choices. I enjoy eating on the patio in warm weather.

After a day of looking around the state capital, fam wanted a relaxing meal with no fuss. This was just the place. Teen found a burger that sounded just right. And it was. He has ordered it again since then. The rest of us were pleased too. Staff made it easy as well with attention at just the right level.

Their special bread came as we were finishing our main course. Dessert never came at all, we had to plead for our bill and cancel dessert. Server seemed annoyed when we asked when things would be served. Salmon was very good, salads were average, lamb was disappointing. Especially at these prices, they really need to upgrade their service.

My husband and I chose this place due to their variety of meal-sized salads. We were NOT disappointed. We both had excellent salads with outstanding and flavorful dressings. The salads were generous and the lettuce and veggies were fresh and crisp. We both had grilled chicken on our salads and it was very juicy and tasty. The beer cheese soup was to die for! Really cheesy and served nice and hot. The waitress was very knowledgable about their beers and ciders and made suggestions, complete with taste testers. Very good food -- does have a bit of a college sports bar vibe, but that was not off-putting. It could be though on a busy night. We were there on a Monday and just enjoying Monday Night Football with a few other patrons.
