45 Best Bars near Cottage Grove

“First time there. Stopped to pick up their Friday night fish fry to go. Plenty of food for 2. The back room had a country western band that was loud and no decor with a cement floor and plastic rectangular church basement tables in rows. The fish fry was OK, lots of sides - Cole slaw (tasty but heavy on dressing), greens beans (canned, overcooked and my husband was disappointed they had onions mixed in), garlic mashed potatoes or a baked potato, Texas toast and choice of 3 flavors of pudding. I got the mashed potatoes and although they were garlicky enough, I can see why most people went with the baked potato with an add your own sour cream option. Ok, but not exciting enough to go back for take out and definitely wouldn't want to eat in.“

“Was passing through from red wing and stopped in on a Saturday. Wonderful atmosphere and Dani was amazing!!! Highly recommend stopping in for a drink and some pulltabs!“

“Probably the best Gluten Free food we've tried. The service was fantastic, the employees started joking around with us right away and made us feel welcomed. They have a dedicated gluten free fryer, and their homemade mix for fried food is absolutely excellent. Plus, they offer gluten free cheese curds and that's very hard to find. Such an amazing experience, definitely coming back.“

“Diverse atmosphere with great bartenders. I love the strong comradery from the local patrons and the whole decor and vibe. The owner is amazing:)“

“The place lives up to its name! Tasty shrimp at 2 bucks a piece and fair priced drinks...you can order the shrimp by the "each" so if you want one or 20 it's all good! ...the perfect dive with a pretty decent Bloody Mary to boot!“

“When I eat I drink Bloody Mary's they just taste better with my food if I feel like a drink, let me tell you I had a very reasonable priced Bloody Mary and it was on Point I could taste everything in the drink a first for me and it had all the fixings as well, I appreciated that. They also have a place too eat Pop's and Son grill I ordered 4 wings and a brisket topped Baked potato I asked for my wings hard didn't get that but they tasted ok and the brisket was not a lot but also good I didn't bring my wings back because they seemed real busy they brought me someone else's food at first them my order and I appreciated Who I assume was Pop came and talked to his customer's checking on them and their food they gave us A 1 service I work in kitchen's and understand things happen sometimes it's how you react to the situation and after that matters the most and they gave the all. I will try them again because they food is good, and they fact they was busy, busy so that let me know a lil sum People like they food I was also asking people in the line about food and if they been here before and I got more yes than no and good food I heard ok Pop and Sons I'll be back..the bar also had karaoke A good time was had Thanks Cheers“

“Service can be spotty. Our server forgot our app sampler and bought it at the end. Everyone makes mistakes but they should have comped part of the cost of the late apps without being asked. We were literally done eating the entree and had to box it.“

“Excellent food, great atmosphere. We will for sure be back!“

“AWESOME BURGERS!!!!!!!! 🍔“

“Fantastic staff! Amazing food! Great cocktails! Everyone is upbeat and FUN! Today, particularly impressed with the young man that was the host. Dark curly hair, didn’t catch his name. He has the “riz” as the youngsters say. I’d hire him in a second. Also, I wish the servers tipped out host staff, but we made sure to tip him. FANTASTIC place.“

“If you’re looking for a hidden gem, The Cherry Pit is the place to be. From the moment you walk in, the cozy mom-and-pop vibe makes you feel at home. The food? Hands down the best I’ve had in a while! Portions are huge, fresh, and bursting with flavor, and all at an unbeatable price. Plus, the cherry on top – they’ve got charging stations right at the table, so you can stay connected while enjoying your meal. Highly recommend this spot! Mary K. Was our server and she was fantastic – super attentive and genuinely kind. She made sure we had everything we needed without hovering, and her recommendations were spot-on. It’s rare to find such great service that matches the quality of the food, but The Cherry Pit definitely delivers on both!“

“Great food Chef Isaac! �“

“We attended the Mother’s Day brunch today. Oh my gosh! Great selection of brunch food items, desserts and beverages. The food was delicious! Quick table side service. Friendly staff, from host to table bussers. Loved the hints of flowers on each table, the very large flower arrangement when walking in and the ice sculpture!! The views, prices, cleanliness and family friendly environment will have us coming back. Thank you!“

“Didn't eat in but seems to have a good vibe. Really Italian style pasta. Steak was ok, high priced for quality. Son said his burgers was great and he is picky. I got a chicken parm and it was done perfectly noodles where cooked to the right firmness, sauce was flavorful without a bunch of additives and chicken was cooked perfect with a perfe t amount of breading. High in cost but everything is these days and food quality was good.“

“Our favorite local place to enjoy amazing food and amazing service! Our servers, Erica and Martiza, are literally the bomb. We try to always come when they're working!“

“Tonight, I was at Acapulco in Woodbury, I was dining with a large group we had excellent service, our server Sami was fantastic. She was super attentive even though the restaurant was very busy she still made our group a top priority. I can't even begin to express how amazing the food was, the cheese dip was out of this world, and the margaritas were fantastic. Love this restaurant... Thank you Sami.“

“I have been going to HyVee for breakfast every Friday for the past 3 years. The food has always been excellent but the stand highlight for the five of us each week has always been our server Denise. She has made the experience at HyVee delightful and memorable. She is a HyVee treasure“

“when we called in and ask about pizza special. They didnt tell both of them. I would have ordered the other special. Then it wasnt ready on time. The topper was I had to break a 20.00 for .3 cents. I know I am only one customer. I came in there at least once a week. Because of the .3 cents not because of the other two problems. I will not be back.“

“love their strict no phone policy. also, the wait service at your seats is the best. no other theatre comes close.“

“Haven’t been indoor dining much since the pandemic but on an impulse stopped in to Chili’s in WDBY. Had the best server, Sarah, with the “pink” in her hair. She was so helpful, fun and patient. Even when we were confused when paying our bill and miscalculated the tip. She was kind and gracious the whole time and a great server. On our way home we realized we seriously made a big error in the tip. Something we will rectify on our next visit. The food was great. The restaurant was cozy. However Sarah made the visit wonderful! Sarah I hope you see this review!!!“
