Loved the live music on Thursday. Beef was amazing quality. Views were breathtaking. The inconvenience of bringing food up from the first floor was well worth the view.

Favorite place in Helena ! Service is excellent, food delicious especially the fried chicken. The rooftop is amazing, oh yes the beer 🍺 , so many selections we loved each one.

We rented out the upstairs (including the rooftop patio) for a company dinner, and boy oh boy were we pleased! Chef Tim and his crew cooked up super tasty (and allergy-friendly) tri-tip, German potato salad, mac n cheese, and a green salad, plus lemon bars pb bars that were to die for! Bex, our main point of contact, provided excellent communication throughout the planning process. We had a dedicated server who was warm and saw to our every need. Thanks again!

Must be pretty hard to listen to directions. Twice I have ordered from this establishment online and twice have they gotten my order wrong, even having given a reminder the second time to not forget a certain item. But you guessed it, they forgot it. The food is fine but it is beyond my comprehension how they don’t understand simple directions.

Mt Ascension Brewing is a true gem in Helena! The food is consistently good— whether you're stopping in for a full lunch, dinner, or just appetizers, every order we've had has been on point! As of 2025, they're an award-winning craft brewery. The brews are crisp, flavorful, and pair perfectly with the menu. This is a team of people from the front end to the kitchen, that cares about their patrons and their experience. I’m especially excited for warm weather — their deck has the best views of Helena! Great food, great beer, great people!

Great location and atmosphere. No table service. Took over an hour for a couple of burgers and the food is just ok. It’s fried bar food. Nothing special.

We love Mt Ascension Brewing and will be back! Our party of seven - 6 adults, 1 child - were seated quickly and served our drinks shortly after. Great beers, you can tell the brewers put their heart and soul into the brews. Food was excellent and came out fast and hot. One of the best Lentil burgers I've had and the rest of our party enjoyed their food as well. Anytime we're in Helena we'll definitely stop here!

Lovely brewery with stellar vibes

Cold, over priced food. My husband and I had lunch here today. We were looking forward to the smothered fries but they were covered in cold cheese. I am willing to pay $18 for lunch if it is delicious. Basic bratwurst on a bun, nothing special. Slider trio, meat was mushy. $50 for the two of us for lunch without beer. Not going back.

Right off, the server was so wonderful! We liked her a lot. At the end, though, there was an issue with payment (charged twice, couldn't leave a tip, total accident). The server tried to figure it out and had to get a manager, who came out totally rude and aggressive.

James Blanchard

Good food, but got charged for items on my receipt that I didn't even receive. Nor did I receive a receipt. I had to do the math using their menu after I got home
