8 Best Sports Bars in Bemidji

“Ate there for the first time tonight and we will be going back. The food and drink were really good. Our server Olivia was great and had good recommendations. Thanks for a good meal!“

“Great burger! And the beer on tap was nice and cold in a chilled glass. Reasonable prices and friendly service too!“

“I drove all the way from Rogersville, Tennessee to have a cheeseburger at Slims and was it ever good!!! Oh and I stopped by to see my sister and her great husband for Bemidji. I'll be back again next summer for another great cheeseburger and I'll swing by sis's house just to say Hi..“

“Their customer service is top-notch! The manager and the rest of the staff are very good. There was a mix-up with my order. The manager resolved the issue very quickly. They have so much respect for our time and were very apologetic for the inconvenience. They even provided us the food for free 😊.“

“Love ❤️ this place! Good food and service“

“Lots of noise from little kids, but it's to be expected being attached to a bowling alley. The food was good, prices were reasonable and service was great! Not one of the first restaurants in the area that springs to mind, but definitely worth stopping in.“

We arrived at Applebee’s and decided to take a quick dinner before we went shopping. The food was fast and accurate and our waitress was completely on top of it and we are very thankful.

Update: 10 Aug 2026 completely opposite of the last 5 ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ review 4 months ago. Waited 10-15 to be waited on for our drink order. 15 minutes for it to arrive and then place our appetizer order. We finished our appetizer and never saw the waitress again since ordering. We were going to order dinner too but after waiting another 10-15 minutes we ended up leaving and went to Ruttger’s. We came in to see the updated restaurant and have dinner. Probably ⭐⭐s this time. Co-workers daughter was there the same night and she had the same experience as us. Hope it’s not a new standard. Yikes 😳“

“All I can say, I've eaten at a lot of Buffalo wild wings, FYI, I wanted something hot and fresh,, that's kind of what we all want ,,right!? Well the manager or someone important that's what I was looking for, boom, I wanted hot french fries, flats, some tenders on a Monday, only a buck, dang you better get there, ask for Josh, and you'll get the boom experience, thanks boss 😎“
