Mount St. Helena Brewing occupies a stuccoed building with large windows on the main street in town. It’s very much a locals’ place with local high school sports awards and team photos on the walls, and it has a relaxed, family-friendly environment. The entrance leads into a large room with dining seating and a partially open kitchen. To the left is another smaller room with the bar and bar area seating. All the floors are covered with large earthy-color tiles, the walls are knotty pine panelling, and the high ceiling is an old looking ceiling of white painted planks and it is equipped with several fans. All the tables are all wood-edged green formica and the chairs are light wood with red padded seats.

Outside, a small patio occupies a narrow space between this building and the post office next door and there are a number of metal tables and chairs with umbrellas.

Unfortunately, they were between brewers when we visited, so the only selection was other local craft beers, but the range was good (8 taps and a cider). You can see the brewery through windows at the back of the dining room.

The food specialty is pizza, and there are also sandwiches and pasta dishes. We didn’t have time to try anything, so haven’t given a score.

Parking is available on the street.

There is a comfortable bar area with several additional tables. The bar has a couple TVs and also a few outside tables in an off street walkway. There is a larger dining room with counter service for the restaurant.
Eight house brews were on tap when we visited plus a couple of local ciders. I had a Brown Ale which was cold and very tasty. I should have sampled some other styles but we were running a bit late.
We were didn't eat anything on this visit. The menu is reasonably priced, primarily pizza with some additional pub items.
