Came in on a Sunday and was put on their wait list (table of 7). We were told the wait would be 20 minutes and bided our time playing corn hole outside. We received a text saying our table was ready and to come inside but once we were able to flag down a server she said they were waiting for an existing table to leave and it would be another five minutes. Fine...but as we were waiting a second time a table of 7 left and another party who came in after us were seated promptly to our dismay. When we approached the same server we spoke to stating that another table of the same size was seated before us, she simply said, "yup." Astoundingly bad service, apathetic staff, and ruined what was supposed to be a celebratory night out to cap off a great vacation otherwise. Do better Suds Hut, I thought you were better than this. read more

I came here during a recent road trip for a pork chop sandwich. I had a pork chop sandwich on my mind as I passed Butte and didn't want to stop the car. I should've stuck with what was in their name. The pork chop sandwich was underwhelming as it was kind of dry. My wife ordered the fried chicken and enjoyed it. She said the chicken was perfectly fried and seasoned. They have a casino in the place. It seems like there are casinos everywhere in Montana. Sud's Hut Famous Chicken - You should get what is in their name. Don't be googling foods to try in Montana while driving 80 MPH. It's dangerous and you may end up with a pork chop sandwich. read more

I had placed an online order and walked in to pick it up. There was a couple in front of me and they were seated, I was ignored. As I was standing by waiting another couple walked in and they were attended to, I was once again ignored. I noticed everyone, customers and staff were white. I made eye contact with several different employees, none attended to me. I haven't seen such blatant racism in 40 years! I finally got someone's attention and they told me I'd have to go through their drive through to pick it up and pay for it, I couldn't do it inside. Meal was delayed by 10 minutes with all of the waiting and being ignored. Food was good though, it doesn't need to be improved. read more

I've heard through the grapevine that Suds Hut had some pretty tasty fried chicken. When my son and his girlfriend came to town, I made it a point to go to the Suds Hut. I was not disappointed. The food was great. The service was awesome. The ambiance was right out of the 1970s, just as you should expect with a fried chicken joint. read more

LOVE THEIR CHICKEN. This is the only friend chicken I have found that I really like. They have great food and I love that they will sell a whole bottle of their ranch! This is always a great choice for dinner in a pinch and always hits the spot! read more

Best Fried Chicken ever! This is a must stop every time we are in Helena. Chicken is very flavorful and really crispy. Plates are simple, chicken and mojos, beer is cold! read more

Great stop over on our way from Glacier NP to Bozeman! We got here around 1pm on a Saturday and the place was packed. It feels like a divey sports bar with a casino annex. No one greeted us at the door, so we weren't quite sure how to order. We went to the bar and ordered 2 chicken sandwich deluxe meals to go. Our orders took about 15 minutes, which is reasonable considering how many patrons were already there and continuing to enter. Chicken sandwich had a flattened chicken filet that was deliciously crispy and adorned with pepper jack cheese, shredded lettuce, two slices of tomato, and some pickles. There is no sauce on the sandwich, so I dressed it with one of the generous 6 containers of ranch. My husband and I loved the homemade ranch! This place is a great value, at $8 per sando + fries. read more

Best chicken ever! This place is a dingy casino inside but the food was so good. We sat outside on the patio. The sauces were all made in house and were excellent as well. Great service too. read more

This spot is underrated. Go grab your favorite chicken dinner from anywhere, and cassshhh suds outside, how bowdat? No seriously though, it's arguably the best chicken dinner I've had. I love ranch. Theirs is bomb, and it's like it's made for the chicken. Also, if you ordered something other than the famous chicken -- take down your review lol. It's called, "Suds Hut Famous Chicken" -- goobers ...kinda like ordering pork at a steakhouse. Look, I'm not hating -- i just ain't relating. read more

I am in Helena, MT this week for work and wanted something different than fast food, burgers or pizza. This place was so close to getting 5 stars and I really wanted to give it but I just couldn't. First let me say this place is a funky place. I almost missed it because the closing age on the building- glittering lights- said CASINO. I was like, I don't see a chicken shack anywhere. Then on the billboard signage I did see CHICKEN, so I knew I was in the right place. Walking in I could smell the chicken. They have a small casino with slot machines and seating for about 50. I really loved the fire pit on the middle, it is currently about -7 outside and I am not builds for that. I love Jojos, but I was underwhelmed with these ones. The picture is a little dark but don't get me wrong, they were over cooked. You could taste the char on them or what seems like old oil. I do appreciate that they are made in house and large. But due to them being over cooked I just could not enjoy them. I was able to eat 3 of them. The chicken... oh man the chicken. I am not a red meat eater so chicken is my thing. I got the little broasted chicken dinner. It was a salad, jojos and 2 pieces of chicken. I chose the dark meat option.. leg and thigh. The light meat is a breast and wing with same sides. For $.99 you can add baked beans. I got my salad with my dressing on the side.. the side of a whole bottle of house made ranch. The chicken was very juicy and well cooked. Not greasy and no thick batter caked on it. My favorite part of fried chicken is the crispy skin and this skin was cooked to perfection. Extra crispy just how I like it. I would give them a try again if I was in town again to see if they can make my jojos without over cooking them. If you're ever in Helena, MT, make sure you stop by and have a piece. Plus side- if you come during better weather, you can sit out on their patio. read more

Always a must stop for us when we are in Helena! The chicken is delicious, and we often drive to Helena just to eat here and have a few drinks. The service has always been amazing. Everyone is so friendly. In the cold months, we love sitting by the fire, and the patio is a fun place in the summer! read more

Had two chicken strip dinners last night. 100% disappointed. The chicken was processed crap. Can get better at McDonalds or Hardee's. What happened to Suds Hut? Been going there a long time. Haven't tried the broasted chicken lately but may not even try. Very sad. read more

Came here for the chicken and was not disappointed! The chicken was crunchy, juicy, and flavorful. The chicken came with potato wedges which was also good and I ordered a side salad. The salad was not that great. The lettuce was wilted and I found a strand of hair in mine. Could do without the salad next time. But The chicken is worth returning. Although, me being very accustomed to Hispanic flavors, wished for some pickled Jalapenos on the side but the hot sauce was enough. I do enjoy spicy chicken. Overall I'd return. It was busy and it seemed like a popular place for the locals. The waitress was very attentive and kind. read more

Went to Suds Hut for lunch today. I had a bacon cheeseburger and the hubby had fish and chips with a salad. The cheeseburger was delicious and so was the fish and chips. The waitress checked on us a few times. My only comment is you don't need to water down the ranch dressing. It was so thin it ran off of the fries as soon as it was dipped. Surly you don't need to water it down! read more

Loved this place! Found it on Yelp and super glad we did! Their specialty is Broasted Chicken and they do it very well. I ordered the 4 piece chicken (breast, thigh, leg, wing) which comes with your choice of fries or JoJos. Also had my favorite Montana beer on tap Cold Smoke Scotch Ale. Do yourself a favor and order one, it's the smoothest Scotch Ale I've ever had. If ever back in Helena for another vacation, I will definitely return! read more

Okay okay hear me out! In a small town of Helena,MT, there is this quirky little local spot that claims to be "Famous" for its Fried Chicken! Being a " Fried Chicken Snob!" And having eaten at some of the very well known Fried Chicken spots around our country, I had my doubts! Let me tell you right now, the claim is Legit! First this is a small local casino. Next they serve Draft Beer in Schooners! Super regular in Texas, but always great way to get a big frosty helping of great local beers! The next thing is they have Authentic Cheese Curds! Yes there is a difference and they serve them under a pile of "House Cut Fries" just to keep them warm! If you know- you know! Then here comes the Lead Actor! Our server Kim, who was more than Awesome by the way, brought out our Chicken. Golden! Crispy! Too hot to bite into! And... OMG! So freakin delicious! The menu is not very big but when you get it right there is no need for a bunch of Fluff! Trust this if you are in Helena, just ask, Everyone knows about " SUDS" and it's DAMN FINE FRIED CHICKEN! read more

Just had dinner 5pm Thursday, watched people who arrived after us order and get their food before waitress took our order, food took forever, my fries were inedible, very cold and soggy, chicken fingers were bad, some weird stuff in one, did not offer refills for our drinks, had to go to the bar to pay our bill.... really sad... I used to enjoy going there... read more

This place is HORRIBLE. "Famous chicken" famous for being horrible. Last 3 times I went there they have gotten me and my family's order wrong EVERY TIME!!! They compensate you with a slit of horrible cheesecake. PLEASE DO NOT COME HERE!!!! I do not recommend. Horrible. Step up your game suds hut. This used to be a great place about 5-6 months ago, but now they suck. read more

Awesome chicken freshly cooked with a great atmosphere. There's a mini casino that you could play at while you wait. read more

Great spot with great chicken! We went here during our visit to Montana. The inside is Moody and dark. They have games playing on all the TVs. It feels like a little cabin. They sat us right away, and the service was so fast. The chicken was incredible. The portions are large and could easily be shared. read more

When we want broasted chicken, this is the first and only place that comes to mind. It has never failed us. We like going on week days before 5PM. This is important because the broaster is not rushed, and the wait is minimal. The Jo Jo's are also worth mentioning. They come out of the kitchen hot and crisp with a creamy, mashed potato-like center. We highly recommend this meal. Of historical note, Foghorn Leghorn's dying wish... "Broast me at the Hut, son... I want to go out in style". read more

Got a $48 (after tip) to go order. Was told 20 minutes... turned into 40. Then waited 5 minutes to get condiments for dry chicken sandwhich and was told they only give out condiments if you dine in! No ketchup for the fries, nothing. Manager had terrible attitude. Avoid this place like the plague! read more

They don't answer their pickup window. Then you have to call because they don't answer the window. Took over a hour to get two simple orders (just chicken boxes). Don't not go here. Horrible! read more

This place used to be good. Placed a large order, and nothing was great. Fried chicken and Jo Jo's were tasty, chicken pieces were very small. Chicken sandwich was mostly breading, tenders seemed to be from a freezer- I would expect fresh from a chicken restaurant. Onion rings were dripping with grease and the coleslaw was at least a day old. Flavorless wilted cabbage. Overall a very disappointing meal. read more

What an experience. I don't know if I have gone to a place quite like Suds Hut in LA. I just don't think LA or California could replicate something like this (they'd probably just ruin it). [Star1] Food quality? We ordered a salad, mac n cheese wedges, and the chicken dinner to share. Overall it was decent. Chicken was nice and tender but not the biggest winner winner chicken dinner in my books. Everything was just a tad bit too greasy for me and the same color - you could just tell everything was deep fried together (Not a bad thing lol). Half a star here. [Star2] Price Point? Good for what you get. Star. [Star3] Service? Honestly the best. Super kind servers with a sense of humor. Star. [Star4] Ambiance? Suds Hut is a VIBE. It's a fun spot to hang. And you can win some big bucks - I still don't get Keno but I'm not going to complain about winning $40. Star. [Star5] Would I come back again? Absolutely. My boyfriend has already been back at least 3 times without me - it's definitely a stop on my trip back out to Helena. Star. read more

I've gone to Suds a few times and I think their food is reasonably priced and tastes good. The inside has a fun vibe to it too. I will say the amount of time you wait for food is quite lengthy, and that's been consistent with every time I've gone. Today was the worst service I've ever had there. We were sat outside and the server took our drink orders but we didn't get them for 30-45 minutes and it was just waters. I think there was a mix up with who our server was supposed to be because we were pretty much forgotten about and considered leaving. Finally we got our waters and food and our server seemed pleasant. A member of our party ordered boneless wings, but was given chicken tenders instead so just be aware. We asked to have the check split 3 ways which has usually never been a problem but the server, Misty, was kind of rude about it and just said "Really..." then walked off without saying anything. She got our checks but I thought it was weird to be snappy at us when we're the ones who are paying for bad service. Overall the food is good, but make sure you don't come feeling hangry because you'll be waiting a long time for your food. read more

We arrived at Helena late and this place is one of the remaining restaurants open around 10pm. The service is great (10/10). The server is friendly too. They ran out of the Cobb salad so we had to order another chicken Salad- ended up with too many chicken in the plate. The 12 pieces are a bit too salty even though they are really juicy. read more

We got the 8-piece chicken and it was delicious- great flavor and crispy- no complaints about the chicken. The service was not good, though. We waited at the drive-up window to pick up our phone order, and were told to pull over to a parking spot for our food to be out in a minute. About 15-20 minutes later, our food arrived. The delivery man ran off, and then we discovered that a cup of coleslaw was missing. Back in line- at the window, we were treated suspiciously (like we would lie about a missing cup of coleslaw?) After getting it, that was definitely the worst/blandest part of the meal- it figures, right? So I'm not sure if it's worth returning for the great chicken. read more
