Great wine bar! Awesome service and great food/drink. Had a fun time here.

Lots to choose from but limited seating.

Mhhhm wine

Josh was absolutely amazing... Small world when you go to Montana and meet people from the same area as you! Full of info and a great mixologist... Get the Gulch drink!

The Hawthorn to me, is one of the most special places in Helena! ✨ Whether I am there to meet friends or by myself with a book, Jill and her staff go above and beyond to make you feel right at home. Comfortable, classy & warm environment. Great options on the food menu, my favorite go to’s are the cheeseboard, bleu cheese jar and the chips and dip. Wonderful wine and drink selection. Truly something for everyone. My go to move is to order a carafe of the tap wine. Delicious!! Don’t forget to try a slushy while you’re there!

Great atmosphere with amazing service. Everyone was so kind and friendly. I wanted to try something new and the staff were patient with me and very informative. Very impressed and pleased with my visit 🥰

We came in for a wine tasting and I liked the options they had for flights. I'd never been there before so the staff was very friendly and helpful. The prices were a little high but the quality of the wine and the atmosphere make this a worthwhile stop. They had a nice selection of foods but I didn't try anytime this time. My husband was very excited to see Gluwein on the menu! We love a glass of warm spiced red wine. So delicious!

We just had our wedding reception in their private mezzanine. Good snacks, good wine good atmosphere. They are reasonably priced for what you get, which is a lot. They let you bring in outside food if they don't have it (we had cake, brownies and cookies from vanilla bean). Both ladies working (the owners) were great. Very professional and just nice people. They were great to work with when we checked out the venue, during setup and the event.
No one's drink was empty long and they made sure everyone had fun. If you want to have a relaxing, chill, fun event, I highly recommend. Honestly 10 out of five stars. It was amazing. And I know it sounds like I'm exaggerating or just overly praising. But everything went so smooth, and with so little stress, I'm just on cloud nine with them and I had to recommend them.

Dietary restrictions: We told them, and didn't have to worry all night.

Parking: There is a big parking garage connected to the building.
