“Always had great customer service here and wide variety of options!“

“Perfect "Northwoods" Inn, friendly staff. It's always fun!“

“Fitger's is a very popular place that I learned about from my son-in-law who fishes in the area. I can only confirm what thousands of people already know. If you missed Fitger's, you missed Duluth. It has a couple of hundred years of family owned tradition and holds to a high standard in preparing food and brewing beer. Fitger's is adjacent to the boardwalk along Lake Superior and a short distance from the Duluth trading company.“

“The best eggs benedict I've ever had!! Kudos to the cook! So good! Great bartender too! Can't say enough good things about this place!“

“Last night the Buffalo House hosted our company Christmas Party. I can’t find the words to tell you how amazing it was! All of our guests are still raving about the food today! It was delicious, timely, and there was plenty! Our bartender was so fun, and made the night even better. The facility is beautiful! It was clean, well set up, and communication was simple and care free! Thank you to all the amazing staff, and facility.“

“Been here a few times lately and have noticed a consistent high quality of food being put out! Hoping to check out their fish fry soon!!“

Bartender was really great and got us hooked up with CBD treats for our dog which should even trying to find, and also tons of great suggestions for the area. Found out she was the owner which is even cooler! Thanks for entertaining us and for all of the great suggestions! Will deff be coming back with friends soon :)“

“Old school bar with great vibe, good humans. Enter either on Superior St or the lower entrance on Michigan St. Smoking section on lower side is good fun. Mix of humans. Local bus station across the street (Michigan side). R e l a x and breathe the good duluth air.“

“First time stopping in at the Gopher. We went to meet with some friends to play Friday evening bingo and was surprised by how good the food was. The beer battered fries were outstanding, as well as the chicken wings. Our friends got the flat bread and onion rings. The place was packed for bingo, but our server Lisa did the best she could, and we had a great time.“

“If you ask for a beer they sell it right to you, no questions asked. I met some guy who said he used to have a job as a technician and he also said if I saw someone crying it was because of my haircut. I asked him if he wanted to fight and he said no he just wanted to drink. I had to admit that the haircut was bad. I had another beer to consider the situation, and then I left and got a haircut.“

“Historic brewery in Duluth. It is buried inside the old brewery which now hosts several businesses. The tap room is in the old barrel room which is a great environment for having a beer or two. If you have a big group they have some overflow space.

On my stop they had 8 of their beers on tap including: an apricot wheat, starfish pale ale, an American lager, oatmeal stout, hazy IPA, sour dragonfruit, another lager and a dunkle that is really quite good. Everything is pretty good but nothing really blew my mind. They do serve food in the barrel room which is great. Service is good and they have a full bar for those less inclined to breweries. Stop and have a good time.“

“Love the Tappa Keg Inn!! I love the old time charm, friendly (and fast!) staff, and the food!! My favorites are the pork chop special on Tuesdays and the hot beef sandwich. The number one favorite is the Friday night prime rib. Tender and flavorful!!“

“While our food was good, we were a party of 8 and apparently they are unable to seat a party of 8 all at one table, though no one told us that when we checked in. Would've been nice to know.“

“I might have to swing by Friday night and check it out.“

“What an awesome venue and fun bar!!! Great staff and owners!!!!“

“This is an easy going chill bar. It has cleaned up a bit since my last visit. Still a dive but, I like dives. The patrons seem to be a tich older than the crowd at Ds. No kitchen there so dont come hungy. There is a McDonalds around the block though.“

“My husband and I had such a great time at The Rathskeller! The vibe is so unique and inviting, with amazing live music that set the perfect mood for the night. We ordered espresso martinis, and it was absolutely delicious—probably one of the best we’ve had! The whole experience felt special, from the atmosphere to the drinks. We’ll definitely be coming back!!“

“We stopped in for breakfast after church on Sunday, as we have done from time to time. The breakfast was great, as usual, but the highlight of our visit was our server, Lexi. Lexi was very prompt, cheerful, friendly and accommodating. I sincerely hope that Grand View Grill knows what a treasure they have in Lexi!!“

“Great local bar to just relax and have fun with friends“

“Loved the atmosphere and revamp of the place! Has pool, darts and popcorn. Menu was versatile. I choose the Jesse’s meatloaf served with mash potatoes and a side of broccoli. Along with the clubhouse, which was stacked high. $1.99 for some Cajan seasoning sprinkled on top of the fries was kinda a joke but everything else was decent.“

“Beef Power Bowl and Turkey Dinner: Absolutely delicious! Great food, great service, great staff! ?“

“My husband and I have stopped here a few times while in Duluth. The food is good and the service is excellent!“

“Our bartender Ayla was amazing! I've never been served by such a sweet girl, very welcoming with quick service! Absolutely no complaints, will be coming back for sure!“

“Hands down great experience. The wings were SO meaty and delicious! Night Manager hooked us up last minute with some great recommended food. 100% recommend!“

“Private party, so bar was closed off to public. Bartenders worked their tail off & still friendly and fast. We were 3rd & 4th person in line for food, which oddly was cold. Mashed potatoes were good but no gravy, butter, or anything (strange) to put on them. They did off barbecue sauce “

“First time stopping into the Fall Inn, we randomly decided to check out somewhere new. We typically enjoy a county bar type atmosphere and the Fall Inn didn't disappoint!

What we didn't realize, was the kitchen was closed. Not skipping a beat when we asked for a menu Austin whipped up our food. The food was delicious our crew got a couple of Western Burgers and a Southwest Wrap. Everything was delicious! I had the wrap, chicken was juicy and fresh, bacon was crisp and flavorful, plus delicious onion rings.

Some extra positives, cold glasses for tap beer and pull tabs. Forgot to take pictures as we were all pretty hungry when we got here.

We will absolutely be coming again!“

“Nothing like it, first and last stop in Duluth!“

“Incredible place. Super warm and cozy. Very kind staff. They had vegan cheese which no one ever has!
The omelet was bright and colorful & my partners cowboy hash was so flavorful. Adding to our list of favorites for when we travel back!“

“Sorry, we have not eaten at the chalet, but it is so convenient for going skiing at Spirit Mountain. We noticed the other day almost every table was filled & our friend ordered a delicious wrap there. The chalet has many tables in an area away from thd restaurant, and big picture windows to view the ski hill. A woman in a wheel chair was sitting near thd windows & enjoyed watching the skiiers. I believe the lower challenge has better menu items and a nicer dining area to sit in.

Parking: There are handicapped parking spaces, but an uphill climb to the challet on a cement sidewalk. A person in a wheelchair would need some assistance.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, easy to get around with handicapped accessible bathrooms within the challet. Automatic door openers.“

“I have yet to check it out.“

“Great place to hang out, have some drinks, and of course shoot pool on the best diamond tables in Duluth.“

“We had a great first time experience at the Two Harbors location this wk! We ordered take out and the wait was worth it! Fresh and hot food and decent prices too. The corn bread was amazing!!! We will definitely be back!!“

“My husband and I have stopped here a few times while in Duluth. The food is good and the service is excellent!“

“Great place! Lots of tv’s for all the sports! Good food. Friendly workers! 10 out of 10!“

“We are outside and the inside was huge perfect for parties and huge groups.
Food was served on cast iron plastic plates which were super cool !!
Food was amazing and we went during lunch so dinner options were not available until after 4.

Our bartender was also our server. Great service and you must try their homemade keg sauce!! Sooo addicting!!

Large servings !
We would eat there again, my daughter had the hamburger,
I had grilled chicken sandwich and hubby had their homemade chips which was great and a Ruben! We had our dog with us so we ate outside .

Beautiful stop with amazing food!“

“Food and service was great!“

“Visiting my niece and she suggested Burrito Union for lunch as it is across the street from her house. Great suggestion. The server was very attentive and pleasant. The margarita was well made, priced well, and tasted great. Our tables food choices included Ultimate Tacos, a chicken quesadilla, and a Buddha bowl. Not one complaint from anyone. We all loved our choices. I personally had the Buddha bowl with carnitas, sweet potatoes, and poblano corn. I wish I lived in Duluth, because I already wish I could have it again. Great experience. Will visit again in a month.

Parking: Street parking is abundant. We were there Labor Day weekend and found parking easily. There is also a free parking lot across the street.“

“I stopped in tonight and was greeted by the Nicest young lady who was hosting, and then had some incredible street tacos. i would highly recommend.“
