Brewhouse

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We came down from Kalispell MONTANA for some business and were recommended this place by a local. It definitely lived up to the hype and provided a fantastic experience. Our server, Tyler, was incredibly attentive and ensured that we had everything we needed. The food was delicious and well-prepared. We’ll definitely be back if we’re in town again. My wife has a milk allergy, but they offered a dairy-free option along with a gluten-free option. Overall, we had a great time and will definitely be returning. Thanks, Tyler and the food!

Really good burgers and really good wings. The only downside to the day was the server was kind of pushy, and then really not paying attention for as empty as the dining room was for getting refills. We had to flagger down several times.

We were a very large group with a lot of young kids. Our server was excellent. She kept our drinks filled and had a great attitude.

If there are less than 2 minutes between ordering the food and serving it, then the food has been prepared for ages. Apparently nothing is freshly prepared here. So it happened as it had to happen: The salmon was bone dry and the rest of the food was lukewarm to cold on serving. With super friendly service I could have awarded 4 stars. But it wasn't.

A sports bar without the sports. Excellent burgers and good fries. Friendly and efficient staff. Had to ask twice for tartar sauce, but it was otherwise a good place. Strongly recommended.

Brewhouse is certainly an interesting place to dine on a pleasant evening, as the food profoundly outperforms the service required to procure it accordingly. Being completely candid, I am amazed at the sheer grandiosity of the atmosphere and enjoyed meandering through the upstairs and downstairs areas — even observing a casino and bar nook — that contributed to enjoying the actual setting in which my meal was being prepared and served at. In regards to the actual experience of ordering, waiting, and eating the food, there are vastly different paradigms; the wait time was one of the longest I have witnessed in quite some time. For actual time intervals, there was a 15 minute period before ordering and a 60-70 minute waiting period for the food (which had to be re-served). I ordered the regular cheese pizza and requested extra sauce, which was initially served as a pepperoni pizza before being graciously redone. The server was quite kind and respectful throughout the entire visit, in addition to the other staff that I briefly conversed with. Overall, the food is definitely worth your time! This is one restaurant that is not for a “quick dive” — be wary of your time if you seek to dine-in. Mixed satisfaction, albeit a fairly nice visit overall!

Beer options and food choices here are amazing. We tried beer flight and if you like light beer Nice Fella and Miners gold is a delight. Their prime rib sandwich was juicy . Pesto chicken wrap was very interesting. I would have never thought of adding cashews to a wrap would taste so good. Their beer cheese soup was very flavorful. I highly recommend trying maui chips as well. We ended the lunch with a raspberry donut cheesecake which again was out of the world. Our server was also very sweet and ambience of this place was pretty casual and chill.

We have eaten at the Brewhouse several times when visiting Helena. We have always gotten good food and service but today was excellent all round. Hannah L was a great waitress. She was thorough in asking what we wanted and how it was prepared. I had the French dip and it was loaded with meat. Not too salty and flavorful. My husband had the mac and cheese with chicken. So tasty! We had an enjoyable evening.

Great food, awesome service, so glad our first plan fell through! We were coming through town on a Tuesday and didn't realize that the place we initially scouted on Yelp closed after lunch, so we stumbled upon the Brewhouse and somehow on Google were specifically directed towards the downstairs. I had prime rib, my wife had a ribeye, and they were both excellent, cooked exactly how we ordered it and were a great value and $32 and $36 with all the fixings. My wife got the risotto and it was so good, but I was happy with my garlic matched because it really hit the spot with the line rib. One of our boys got a pasta dish and had a laundry list of things he wanted taken off and they were very accommodating. Our other got a kids pizza and the thing was huge for a kids portion. We ended up taking half home and I ate it that night! The waitress who helped us was super chill and kept coming around with refills before we got anywhere near needing them and really hooked our kids up. One of them got beer cheese soup and it had some crackers on the side. She heard his little brother ask to have some of the crackers and the next pass she dumped like 6 packages on crackers right in front of him :-) It was a little weird figuring out the upstairs/downstairs thing at first, but when they told us it's open seating downstairs and just pick a spot, we knew that was where we wanted to be, instead of upstairs. Everyone enjoyed their meal for our first time in Helena, and I don't have a bad thing to say about our experience!

Girlfriend and I came in for lunch today. Our server Jordan was absolutely amazing and extremely attentive. My prime rib dip was decent, though one half was almost entirely fat. Girlfriend said the French dip was good, though we both think the aus jus needed a bit more flavor. The biggest issue we had was another waitress, the hostess (Lauren), and one of the bus boy decided to just stop in the middle of their shift and have gossip session with two other friends that came in. I understand taking a break, but typically it is away from customers not the table right behind them. Would have been nice to be able to have a conversation at my own table (immediately behind the hostess station) without workers yelling to each other and abandoning our server to cover the entire restaurant.

We went on a Friday night and were seated right away and the service was good. The reason for the low rating is mostly the food and prices. It has gone downhill. It used to be a good place to go but the Reuben was mediocre at best and the sweet potatoe fries were meh. Also it was $3 extra for the sweet potatoe fries. My wife got the French dip which was odd tasting and fries were not crispy. Additionally, they charge an extra 3% for credit cards. I will not be returning!

Really good food (little on the salty side) . Super friendly! We came in 42 minutes before they closed and they still sat us and didn't make us feel rushed! We had no idea until I was about to write this review and the waitress came over and asked if we needed anything. She assured us that we had plenty of time!

Quick friendly service. Tyler was attentive and friendly. Food was served quickly and tasted great. If we lived in the area we would be back

My husband and I stopped in yesterday and were impressed by the service and friendliness of the staff. We ate the halibut sandwich and the beer cheese soup. We tasted some beers, too. I enjoyed the food and would come back !

While unexpectedly needing to stay in Helena for a couple nights, we searched for a pub to have a late lunch. This place turned out to be a great choice. Two levels of dining with a great selection of beers, pub fare and attentive service. The onion rings were served hot with perfectly crispy breading, the clam chowder was creamy with nice sized pieces of clam and veggies, the bacon on the BLT was crispy and flavorful, and the side Greek salad was very fresh with the perfect balance of classic elements. This place is clearly a local favorite, and for good reason.

Terrible experience. The food is bad, the service is rude (especially downstairs), and to top it off, they charge an extra fee just for using a credit card -- which is ridiculous. One of the worst restaurants in Helena.

Clam chowder is terrible!! All I taste is carrots! Who puts carrots in clam chowder? A terrible chef does that's who! Wow!!

Dinner at 5 PM on May 25, 2025. First, the good. The atmosphere was great. We sat out on the patio and the weather was perfect for a memorial day weekend. One for the ages. Service to was good. Very friendly server. Salads were delivered timely and were good. For my wife and I, we both ordered burgers at the tune of roughly $18 each. Basically, they came out like hockey pucks. The place was about half full and there's really no excuse for a place like that not to be able to cook a proper burger. I could get a better burger at any fast food joint at half the cost. We usually go for the fish and chips, which are always great. Will probably avoid burgers in the future. As a sidenote, please ask your hostess not to chomp on gum while she's waiting on people. We could barely understand her annunciate her words as she was more focused on chewing her gum than talking.

Well it was Mother's Day and our daughter took us out for dinner. The food took 1 hour and 15 minutes to serve and they never brought our daughter's dinner. As we were walking out the server brought it in a go box and it was thrown away.

Summary: A popular and busy place even midweek, Brewhouse serves up bar food and drinks at slightly upscale prices. With two floors this spot is much larger than it appears from the outside. But it was as busy as it looked from the outside: At supper time on Tuesday the small parking lot was packed, and the overflow lot across the street was nearly full. Still, our initial wait was short and dining at high top bar tables provided plenty of people watching activity. Despite the packed house the absence of background music and TVs allowed conversation without yelling. The crowd did make an excessive wait for our food--over 30 minutes from ordering. Grilled salmon was woefully overcooked but mixed steamed vegetables were fairly undercooked. Service offered occasional check-ins for drink refills, as well as food updates and apologies for the meal delay.

Came in for lunch with the family and started with the pretzel bites with mustard and beer cheese. Really tasty. Good service, plenty of room and a really good beer menu though we did not partake this day. Plenty of locals seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere. What is the difference between upstairs and downstairs with the slightly different menus? Trying to figure it out. Upstairs was certainly more crowded but downstairs was nice and cool on a hot Day. Overall a great spot with a menu with something for everyone, fantastic service, decent pricing, and an excellent beer list.

Service was excellent and the food was good with reasonably priced wines made for an enjoyable dinner.

I went with the family and the onion soup was delicious. However, the burger and pasta were not good, I didn't like the taste and it was cold. We didn't find it impressive at all. The service was very good, the place was very nice. but the food wasn't great.

The Mac and cheese bites are delicious the service was great and the food is just so good and the pizza is good

1st the positives...fish & chips, halibut, salads so good, as recommended:-) Best tap line-up + bottles of EVrything :-) Staff from hostess to dining area to bartenders friendly & excellent. But...stay clear of the lg, circular back booth, there's a reason it's often vacant. Thetypesthathavetheirspawninbars :-€ Behind described booth, is a pathway from the main bar side, to the restrooms. 'Some' people use it as a playground, to release their offspring to race to/fro, squawking, yelling, clattering on the wood flooring directly behind dining seating. One particular creepy, skinny apparent 'Dad' seemed to delib encourage that behavior, actually leading them back & forth over and over. Really seemed to be looking for confrontation (from a group of women trying to enjoy dinner & visit). Nice.

Glad it was recommended to us. Pretty good place to eat, nice atmosphere we'll go back.

Service and Food was excellent. Waiting staff at the Bar was very attentive to my request.

Fun place to have a beer and watch the game, but save your money after two bites of my french dip and one bite of the jojo's i was finished with the food. The Jojo's were burnt and the french dip with mushroom and onions was tasteless and the aujus was warm water.

The hostess told us 10 to 15 minute wait for a table. 15 minutes later we asked again and was told it would be 15 to 20 minutes for a table. We left. There were lots of tables open. When we let the hostess know we weren't going to continue waiting we got a snarky "hope you have a great rest of your nite!" Very condescending.

Great place to get dinner. The ambience is brewery restaurant with plenty of tables. The food is very good and the service was good as well. My colleague and I had filet's, mice with garlic and blue cheese, his was plain. Tasty, not super steakhouse worthy, but good and not too expensive. Great beer selection also.

Yum! Started out with the Blackfoot IPA, the ordered the Prime rib sand...freaking Ono...found out the bartender "Heidi" spent a year in Hawaii and even though she was crazy slammed busy, she found time to " talk story" with me...then came along Nico, a young boy who has roots back home to "Wahiawa" small fukin world. Any ways...I worked my way through four five once tasters at a time and I'm telling you...Helena has some GREAT brews to choose from...oh yeah... delicious! I plan on stopping in again before I met outa here in a month Much Love and Aloha

Great place to have lunch, the beer cheese soup was amazing, the service was prompt. I will be back next time I'm in town.

Brought my son and his wife , my mother and her significant other along with my husband and myself to celebrate my son's birthday. 3 of us had the Queen's fish which is supposed to be halibut and a side. It might've been halibut, but if it was, it tasted just like cod, but sometimes that happens, you can get a bad piece of halibut. My daughter-in-law ordered the Nathan's mac & cheese, which the waiter told us was one of their most sought out after dishes. This was after we told him it wasn't very good. And four of us tried it and all had the same opinion. My husband's hamburger wasn't great and then we got the bill. On a $145 bill they charged us over five dollars to use our credit card. I can see having a minimum to charge someone the use of a credit card but when you spend that much for a very mediocre meal and then have to pay five bucks to pay for it with your credit card? Unfortunately, this establishment is off our list to ever come back and eat at again.

There were signs on the doors saying that masks were to be worn until you reach your table. As a older person I'm dismayed to see numerous people walking around the bar and Resturant without masks. In Montana Masks are mandatory in public places but they are not enforced in this establishment. I did not feel safe that this place does not take their customers safety serious. I will not be back.

Boyfriend and I were visiting Helena and decided on this place for lunch. It's located in a walkable area with restaurants and the movie theater near the carousel. It's a pub-like atmosphere, nothing fancy. It's starting to show some wear and could use a face lift. It was recommended through our online search because they have gluten-free options. When we arrived and I looked at the menu, there wasn't much, only the "survivor" with a few twists on a bland theme (protein with veggies). BF had the "afterburner" hamburger (Jalapenos, bacon, pepper jack cheese and our own Sesame fire sauce) and fries. Doesn't that sound good? Guess what I had? Yes, the very bland gluten-free option, the "survivor" (grilled chicken breast) with sweet potato fries. We washed our food down with Dr. Pepper (BF) and lemonaide (me). I hear that the burger wasn't bad. My chicken was overcooked and dry. It was underwhelming, but our bodies were no longer hungry.

Ordered and they were out of baked and mashed potatoes and one of the soups. Steaks were cold and very fatty. Had onion rings dice there were no potatoes, they were overcooked. Service slow and food not very good. This is a one and done. We will not be back. Beer Cheese Soup out Baked and mashed potatoes out

We needed lunch in Helena so we popped in. It was busy for a Tuesday afternoon but service was prompt. Here is the highlight of my visit. Me: I will have the onion rings Server: For your lunch? Me: Yes Server: Yes, girl! They have lots of local beers and ciders which is great as well. P.S. the onion rings are gigantic and have coconut in the breading and I highly recommend them. So good they don't even need the ranch that accompanied them.

I just had the worst prime rib I can remember. The menu says it's the best. Wrong. A big piece of fat on a plate and the small amount of meat was flavorless. Don't get it.

Absolutely disgusting! Just writing this review makes me feel ill thinking about the dreck we ingested. The sign on the door as you walk which says "kitchen help wanted, apply within" was the first sign of alarm. More signs of worry when the dinner salads were dry, and the blue cheese dressing was WARM. All indicators that the salads had been sitting under a heat lamp in the kitchen. Water glasses had "floaties" of food residue. Sanitation issues and dishwashing difficulties, perhaps? The chicken pesto wrap was sent right back to the kitchen after one sickening bite. There was no need to play Russian roulette with the rest of the menu, given the high probability of another culinary atrocity. The Afterburner burger was just foul. The meat patty looked strange and had a spongy gray texture on the inside. Upon further inspection, the grill marks on the meat were FAKE (see photo below), like it came from a box of cheap frozen processed burger patties from Walmart. At least the bacon on the burger appeared to be real. Last and certainly least was the clam chowder, their Friday 'special.' There was so much basil that it drowned out any semblance of clams, and it was just nasty. This place is obviously cutting corners on food costs and quality (and who knows what else). I was unnerved seeing the hoards of people lined up out the door like pigs waiting to dine at the trough. As I write this, I'm terrified of what sort of indigestive agony awaits me this evening. One star for the gracious service and agreeing to comp us for the chicken wrap. I feel embarrassed for the servers having to cater this slop to hungry patrons only for the discerning diner to see what's really going on here. Spare your taste buds the horror and shutter the doors on this food racket.

I had the blackened prime rib sandwich, and it was fantastic. Friendly service, good food, and a great selection of beers and ciders...this is a great spot in a great Helena location. Definitely recommended.

The manager Tyler was unprofessional and rude when asked a question about their new automatic 20% tip policy that was not shared with us when we first sat down, when we were handed our bill, etc...I don't mind tipping but a heads up would have been nice and that's exactly what I was trying to explain to the manager. He interrupted me and says "well if you're tipping appropriately then this shouldn't be a problem." I get it - times are tough for everyone. But the way I was just treated for asking a QUESTION is absolutely ridiculous. Unfortunately my family and I likely won't be back. I know that doesn't matter to you guys, but it's a bummer for us because we really enjoyed eating here over the years.

Service was great, food was good. Expected a larger salad for $15.50. Then when the bill arrived, an added 3% charge for using a card. What ever happened to the cost of doing business? I think that price for a salad covers the costs.

The atmosphere was really unique, the food was amazing and our server was the best. Very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed without hovering. Will definitely go back next time we're in Helena.

Food was top notch! Cobb Salad was fresh, delicious, loved the raspberry vinaigrette, large and satisfying. The Prime rib sandwich had awesome smoky flavor, tender and delicious. Great service... will go back! Good Brew too

Passing through town. Based on a Yelp search, I wasn't too hopeful for a good pub but Brewhouse P & G seemed the best bet. Turns out, it's more than just good. Brewhouse is a split level affair with supposedly different menus and ambiance on each floor. I say 'supposedly' because although I didn't check out the downstairs menu, I noticed no significant difference in atmosphere. Maybe I didn't look hard enough. Anyway, we sat at the upper bar where we received great service, good food and, of course, decent beer (from Lewis & Clark Brewing and Blackfoot brewing). Upstairs menu is solid and fairly vegetarian friendly. The Queen's Fish with a side of beer cheese soup hit the spot for me. Not too loud. Parking is tight but there's a lot across the street which appears to half dedicated to Brewhouse. Recommended.

First time getting a burger it wasn't the best dry and the bun was old have been here a few times before was great just don't get burger people In Helena scarf half ass food I rejected it after 2-3 bites sorry for trashing burgers but when they suck they suck

Very disappointed that they're now charging a 3% fee to use a credit card. The majority of consumers don't pay with cash or check and this move is an additional cost to consumers. A very tacky move. I will be sure not to dine here again. Also worth noting that their head chef is leaving. Do better Brewhouse ownership.

I stopped in here one evening for a quick bite to eat. Yum! The sliders were great and the beer, amazing. Go for the Shadow Castor Amber Ale! I typically go for a lighter beer, but this one was great. If you prefer something light, you can't go wrong with the Miners Gold.

This is a chilled place to enjoy a cold one! A very COVID safe restaurant. Mask up Montana!

First time here and are downstairs. Very friendly staff, and the food was delicious. Perfect place to eat before seeing a movie down the street.

Very good salads and the service is great. Nice outside seating and cozy downstairs with a fireplace

Good food and friendly service. Plenty on the walls to read while you wait for your meal. I recommend this restaurant.

Excellent onions rings. Holy sh*t! The BEST I've ever had in my life. Batter is light and flaky and slightly sweet. Big fat onions too! The sandwiches are good and hardy! Beers were also delicious. Waitstaff was super nice and great personality.

The Brewhouse lower level served one of the most absolutely horrible meals that we've ever eaten. To say it was just gross would be an under statement. I had the blue cheese steak thing, and my better half had the seafood medley thing. Thing is the best description that I can think of. Just how much over salted pasta and crap can you fit in a bowl? They've figured it out. The lower level is clean and has nothing to complain about. The service was a little on the annoying type, and the attitude was unpleasant. This experience was a total letdown from past meals there. My advice, stay upstairs.

The Soused Shrimp is AMAZING...can't beat it. And don't get me started on the dipping sauce; I could drink it!

LONG WAIT FOR BLAH FOOD We converged on Helena from two Montana locations for a debate event. After a long, but successful event, we stopped at Brewhouse Pub and Grille for dinner ... and we waited ... and waited ... and waited ... for mediocre food. I have my overcooked fish in a go box in the refrigerator. Maybe I'll make a fish taco. Hot sauce and slaw will give it some flavor.

The Brewhouse is an adorable gem of a restaurant in Helena. After looking at the menu for both the upstairs and the downstairs, my family opted to stay upstairs and enjoy the more casual dining setting of the pub and grille rather than the seemingly fancier (and pricier) downstairs. We arrived to the Brewhouse early in the evening, and were happy that we were able to be seated rather quickly. Both my parents ordered different steaks and I ordered the Alaskan Halibut fish and chips, dubbed the "Queen's fish" as well as beer. I was delighted to explore the beer menu that featured mostly local Montana breweries. The beer I had was a delicious stout, whose name I wished I remember, but it was rich with coffee flavor and was just absolutely delicious on in the cool Montana evening. The food that we got was also stunningly delicious. I would highly recommend the Queen's fish to anyone that is a fan of fish and chips. The quality of the fish really shines through. I would advise anyone to order the larger portion so that you have enough to eat and little more to share with the rest of the dinner party. My parents' meal was also delicious. I immensely enjoyed the prime steak, however I wonder if the addition of mushroom and onions ($6) was really worth the price. The meat on the prime steak was tender, juicy and very tasty and just barely enough for a person to feel full without tipping into the area of bloated. My mother's steak was a bit dry, but that may be because she orders her steak medium well, whereas I prefer my steak to be rare. Overall, we enjoyed fantastic meals and I would highly recommend the Brewhouse to anyone in the area.
