"I cannot believe I lucked out with my very first pick in Helena! Miner's Gold Hefeweizen's so good, can be my new favorite beer! I am a fan of jo jo's and man these are good. The chicken is top notch, crispy on the outside, dripping with juice inside! The setting is welcoming, not loud, chill, sitting by the fireplace sipping cold beer while it is snowing outside, now this is life! I cannot end without mentioning the service, so friendly and professional(Candace), elevated the whole experience to another level, Suds Hut is up there with my all time favorites now, anywhere!"

"Review - Suds Hut - 12/3/2025 For our ROMEO (Retired Old Men Eating Out) Club adventure on this beautiful day with the sun glistening on the snow banks and the slushy, wet roads leading the way, Otto and l headed out to Suds Hut on Montana Avenue in Helena. We’ve been there before and enjoyed the meal, but that was prior to beginning our “official” reviews. Western-themed stained glass panels adorn the wall above the Montana-sized bar. The dining area encompasses a large, circular fireplace which provides both warmth and atmosphere in the center of the dining area. Immediately upon entering, the waitress greeted us with a friendly, “Sit wherever you want.” Comfortable, cushy leather booths offer seating for various sized groups. The dark leather booths and dim lighting provide an overall dark atmosphere with little splashes of color from the Christmas lights strung from the ceiling. Loud, traditional Christmas music drowned out all other background sounds. Suds Hut is known as THE place in Helena to get fried chicken. Their merchandising slogan is, “Winner, Winner,” as in “Winner, winner, chicken dinner.” But I don’t think that’s original with them. I felt a little guilty not ordering a chicken dinner, but sometimes you’re in the mood for chicken and sometimes you’re just not in the mood for chicken. Otto and I both ordered double cheeseburgers with fries. The burger patties were thin, but stretched past the edges of the bun. The burgers were decorated with tomato, shredded lettuce, grilled onion, and special sauce. The hefty-sized order of skinny fries was nicely cooked to a crispy outside and soft warm inside. My coffee was strong and flavorful and promptly refilled by our friendly, efficient waitress Brooke. She was very quick to deliver our drinks and take our orders. She also delivered a squeeze bottle of house-made ranch dressing for dipping the fries. We both really enjoyed our burgers, although Otto didn’t care for the fries. He also didn’t care for how dark the restaurant was. He complained about not being able to read the menu without using the flashlight on his phone. As much as I enjoy Christmas music, conversation was difficult because the background music was a couple clicks too loud. Otto knocked them down a little in his ratings commenting, “As a burger place there are better options.” However, he also acknowledged that their chicken is very good. He likes Tabasco and all they provided on the table was Frank’s Hot Sauce. He would prefer brighter lighting and softer music. But if you’re in the mood for an amazing chicken dinner Suds Hut is an excellent option. I greatly enjoyed my meal and was less bothered by the music volume and the lighting. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

"In for dinner. Lexi and Kennedy were wonderful servers! Liquid wheat barley came out fast, nice and cold! Chicken wings, chicken little dinner abd Malibu chicken was hot and tasty!"

"Friendly servers and our food came out quickly, amd they were busy!!! Definitely worth coming back. Potatoes are phenomenal 🤩🤩"

"This place is a true Helena staple, and we love it. We usually order takeout and pick it up through the drive-through, but when we dine in, it’s always a great experience. In the warmer months, we enjoy sitting outside and playing bags with the kids, and in the winter there’s usually a fire going, which makes it just as enjoyable. It’s an easy, laid-back spot that works well for both families and casual nights out."
