ABOUT
Established April 2022, The Hopper Kitchen & Market specializes in scratch-made and locally-sourced fare. Our ever-evolving menu features familiar favorites, with a twist.
Owners Dan and Chelsi Bay drew on their Montana roots and years of hospitality experience to bring to life a longtime dream in a destination along Helena’s historic walking mall known for its tasteful offerings and lively atmosphere.
The Hopper draws its name from Grasshopper Creek where gold was first discovered in Montana in 1862 and aims to celebrate the abundance of ingredients raised and crafted in Montana. Our laid-back space and diverse menu intend to have something for everyone.

A side salad, falafel bowl and goat cheese salad wait to be ran to a table at The Hopper.
