A century ago, legends gathered at The Original Montana Club & The Rathskeller

Among them was President Theodore Roosevelt, who famously enjoyed a Mint Julep while visiting Helena. Behind the bar stood Julian Anderson, the Montana Club's iconic bartender whose stories, hospitality, and craftsmanship became part of Helena history.

Today, that spirit lives on in the Rathskeller Cellar Bar—where great cocktails, great stories, and Montana history are always on the menu.

Steak. Bourbon. History.

The Rathskeller is serving up something special.

Introducing the 1885 Sampler — your choice of three 2oz cuts featuring Rib Eye, Wagyu Denver, NY Strip, or our house Currywurst. Add a Wagyu Strip upgrade or Chef's Choice Charcuterie Board for the full experience.

Pair it with a Skeller 85 Old Fashioned or our Cherry Ember Old Fashioned and settle into Helena's most historic cellar bar.

Crafted with the same attention to quality and hospitality that has defined The Original Montana Club since 1885.

The Korean Rice Bowl settles in with the right kind of heat for a night downstairs. Rich, savory, and layered with bold flavor, it’s the kind of plate that holds its own beside a strong drink and a long evening.

korean rice bowl | $20
braised bulgogi style pork belly served over rice, with korean cucumber salad, carrot, bean sprouts, kimchi and a jammy soy egg.

Pairs perfectly with our Peach Sour.

Mike Killeen plays live tonight while the cards move steady in the Teddy Twain Poker Room. Good music, good hands, and a table worth staying at downstairs.
