It's A Nice Restaurant By The Lake..But Food Was Not All That I Tried Tri Tip Sandwich...Its 3 Small Pieces Of Meat On A Large Bun..Are You Kidding Me???My Husband Had Pulled Pork Nachos...That Pork Had No Flavor...All In All Really Wished We Would Of Just Stuck To The Bloody Mary's Those Were Decent

Boars Nest has great food. We their love Spirit Lake logger pizza and fried pickles!

If there's room to sit on the deck the ambiance is lovely, if not, it definitely lacks (I'm not opposed to a standard dead animal bar motif, but broken, disassembled booths leave something to be desired). This is a meat-eaters delight and the smell of the smoker at work outside will draw you in, but for those of us who don't prefer piles of beef and pork (or the alligator), the pickings were a little slim. The wings appetizer seems to be the only chicken they are smoking, and they were tasty, but the BBQ sauce was on so thickly we could barely taste the smoked chicken. They allowed us to substitute chicken for the pork that usually comes on the nachos and these were quite crispy (no soggy nachos here!), though the salsa was straight out of a jar. We rounded out our appetizer dinner with an order of fries, which were thick and crispy and disappeared quickly. The menu also includes burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, pizzas, and tri tip.

I really enjoyed the drinks that we had here. However I did NOT like the bartender's attitude!!! He was complaining about how busy he was!! He said he gets very cranky and trust me he was!! Then he found out we were paying separately he just walked away from us. I've never had a bartender or wait staff treat me like this!! Not sure that I will ever go back...

Friendly staff, clean and beautiful outside lake view tables.

Nice place to grab a bite to eat or try a cold adult beverage. They offer smoked ribs, brisket and wings that are cooked in a huge smoker out back and quite a variety of speciality drinks including a Boar’s Drool Derailer, a Spirit Lake Colada or the Feisty Cucumber while you can enjoy a fantastic view of Spirit Lake from the deck. Small beach and dock right out front. Really enjoyed my stop here on a sunny afternoon.

Wonderful view of Spirit Lake. Waitstaff were pretty swamped when I went in on a Sunday evening, but they were pleasant as could be. I ordered the tri-tip sandwich with coleslaw and a boozy root beer drink. Set me back $21, which is a little above average for this type of meal, but it's a resort town, so what do you expect? The sandwich meat was perfectly tender and smoked, and the slaw was fresh, and not too sweet. I would come again.
