I love the idea of enjoying a different Montana restaurant every day of the week. Unfortunately, that’s not the most financially responsible move. Luckily, I also enjoy cooking! Sharing a home-cooked meal with friends and family is one of the best ways to connect. You’ll find the best of both worlds with a visit to today’s featured restaurant. Located in Helena, it focuses on the feeling of good, home-cooked food with fresh ingredients whenever possible. It might just be the best locally-sourced restaurant in Montana.

The Hopper Kitchen & Market, located on N. Last Chance Gulch in Helena, Montana, offers fresh and filling food with tons of variety.

From the outside, with its warm lights, the restaurant and market are inviting. This is especially true in the winter! Inside, the space feels light, airy, and ... well, fresh! Just like the food.

Each ingredient is intentionally chosen, which explains why the descriptions are so exciting. For example, take a look at the Roast Beast which features house-roasted Montana grass-finished beef, pepperoncini aioli, roasted peppers, and melted mozzarella. It's served on parmesan-crusted Texas toast.
