11 Best Bars in Bemidji

“I was in Bemidji for a quick day trip yesterday and wanted to post my experience with this restaurant. It started with a very patient waitress who answered all my allergy questions kindly and promptly and helped me find a delicious burger and side salad that met all my crazy criteria. My kids had yummy meals as well. We were all very pleased. Then I left to my vehicle not starting and went back in for advice on who to contact for help in a town where I didn't know anyone. To my rescue was the manager. I'm not sure how to spell his name, or I certainly would send a special thank you directly to him for all of his help. He truly went above and beyond to help my family get our vehicle going so we could get back home. He showed so much kindness and caring to our situation. Thank you to him & all the staff involved in our evening yesterday. I have a new favorite restaurant in Bemidji. :)“

“The food is excellent. I had jalapeño poppers which were the best I've ever had in my life and I also had "The heater" burger which was also excellent. Everything was made to order and very fresh and high quality beef is used here you can tell by how it tastes. 5 ?. Service was just as excellent and the atmosphere is good it is a bar tavern so keep that in mind if you have small kids. Excellent friendly place.“

“I love this place. I've been coming here since college, so it has a lot of nostalgia for me. But the staff has always been super friendly and awesome and the food is always top notch! I am never disappointed. It has a fun and friendly atmosphere and depending on the night of the week, if you want a quiet dinner with the spouse, come during the week. If you want fun and rowdy, Friday and Saturday nights are great. A great place to watch the football game as well on Sunday afternoons. I love this place! Hidden gem!“
