I used to really like the little spot but they changed a lot since last time I’ve been in. I got a giant bun with one slice of turkey in it with the smallest tomatoes I’ve seen and the bun was super dense. My husbands sandwich sucked too. Will not be going back which is sad to say it used to be a usual spot.

Well me and my boyfriend wanted to split a BLT and I'm imagining a BLT on a normal loaf of bread how I always ate it, it came in a tiny like hamburger bun that was not great it just crumbled like it was old bread that had been frozen. The blt part was alright I guess but not good enough to make me go back there. The only we went there was for a smoothie but I guess they only make them in summer. Their cookies looked good. I did get a cinnamon roll from there earlier this summer and I can't say that was the greatest either

Very disappointed in our experience today. I was looking forward to my scrambled egg bowl only to find out that the eggs aren't fresh - they're microwaved. Not only do microwaved eggs have a less than desirable texture, it also leaves a lot of water at the bottom of the bowl resulting in wet, watery food. It was inedible. To add to our experience, one of the employees was visibly sick as she was loudly coughing. She then proceeded to serve food from the case without washing her hands or wearing a mask. As we approach cold and flu season, it may be worth having policies in place to have employees ensure they don't get others sick while serving them food. The only positive was my husband's croissant was good.

The cinnamon and carmel rolls were delicious. The carmel nut roll was amazing. The two people behind the counter obviously don't like working with each other. The young lady that took our order was not very friendly. She ordered her co-worker to get our order even though he was busy. We were the only ones in line and she could of filled the order. I typically leave a tip, but I didn't leave one today.

Always good. If you like bacon, the BLT won't disappoint.

I have been living in Helena for about 18 months and have driven by this place countless times. A visit to Benefits hospital third floor looking out the window I discovered it across 11th Ave. and I'm glad I did. It has a great selection of breakfast sandwiches, pastries and cookies. A coffee was very good also and the whole meal was reasonably priced. The service was friendly and fast. Can always tell when people like where they work. It looks like a hole in the wall from the outside thus the name I guess, but it has a very good local feel once you get inside and adequate seating if you want to stay. A hidden gem if you will. I will be going back.
The Dive Bakery is AMAZING!!! Under new ownership within the last couple of years. The owner is awesome and very creative. I just picked up my yearly Irish Car Bomb cupcakes that are to die for! I also grabbed a piece of quiche while I was there this morning. They have at least 2 different kinds and they are delicious. I would recommend checking this out for any of the following reasons, your local bakery, need a cup of coffee, lunch, or custom cakes. 10 out of 10!!!

Staff is great, food is fantastic, service is fast . First time there, will definitely not be the last. If you don’t control yourself you walk out of there with much more food than you’ll ever eat. It all looks so good.

They don't greet you fast but they are great for items for meetings!

Ordered a latte but the person who took my order just wrote it on a piece of paper and set in down in front of the machine. 10 minutes later I asked about it and the girl just looked at me and walked off. I saw her look at the piece of paper and then go do something else. Once she made it she just called my name and handed it to me. No apologies. Wish I hadn’t left a 20% tip no matter that it was small. I won’t go back.

I’m constantly on the hunt for a good breakfast sandwich and man oh man do I now wish I lived in Helena. The “build your own” style here has so much potential! Do not sleep on these bread options. It doesn’t get any fresher than this!!
