“We have never been to this Papa Murphy's before but we was in the area tonight so we stopped to grab some pizzas. It was insanely busy in there and the crew ROCKED IT. The entire staff worked so well together like a machine. At one point the crew had seven pizzas on the front line plus two on the stuffed pizza line going and even though I'm sure it was overwhelming, you couldn't tell by any of them. Good job to this team and to the manager on staff tonight for doing such a good job under pressure. Back of house too! Happy Holidays.”

“It must be a night "off". I ordered a small lasagna with an extra slice of garlic bread. Upon opening, the lasagna was deconstructed. the sauce was amazing but chunky! The meal was luke warm and tasted microwaved. I'll try again because the sauce is so good. *Sidenote* I was told 5 p.m. so the driver who came back from delivery took my name. The young woman was so friendly when she came out! Unless it had been sitting 15 minutes, it shouldn't have been luke warm with hard cheese. I recommend a second try but not sure when. There are many places with hot, fresh lasagna.”

“In northern Minnesota, this location is a hidden treasure. The mix of residents and tourists creates a friendly and welcoming atmosphere with a lively yet relaxed vibe. Where else can you get free pizza and cold drinks in such a lively atmosphere as the Friday happy hour?”

“I was looking for some prepped meal options that are tasty and healthy…I think I’ve found it. We tried some of the big national brands as a busy couple without a ton of time to make meals. They were all fine for a while, but to be honest they never tasted great. We were between meal prep companies, and we got a recommendation for Individual Nutrition, so we went for it! Their meals were super varied, which was great. We went with all the gluten free options, because we’re that kind of household. They were great. Tasty protein bowls, great porketta and some fun apple protein pancakes! We ate and enjoyed all of them and it looks like their menu continues to expand with more options. I’ve heard rave reviews about their smoothies but haven’t tried them yet. They were easy to work with, the meals came as promised and in great shape, and they have been super fast to respond to any questions I’ve asked along the way. I’d highly recommend them, and we will certainly continue to order to make our lives easier while knowing we’re eating something healthy that actually tastes good!!”

“As a traveler I found the Jack to be completely uninteresting. It has good bones but no personality. If I were a local, the big tvs, game room & drinks would make it a draw. The staff & patrons were friendly”

“Wow! I'm from another state, so when a local told me this is 1 of 2 good spots I had to try. I ordered their soft pretzel and was amazed at the size. It was the size of a Christmas wreath! Very delicious get the spicy honey mustard dip with it. Also some of the best blue cheese I've ever had. Thank you for the great time. God bless!”

“I really wanted oysters and saw Hank’s and decided to try it. Hank’s did not disappoint. We got a dozen raw. They were delicious. We also had their fried pickles….Spears with the best breading ever and the aioli dipping sauce for them was amazing. I had a vanilla hazelnut martini and my husband had the peach Arnold Palmer. Both drinks were fantastic. I order the shrimp platter. The breading was also very good and their fries are seasoned perfectly. My husband order fish and chips and it was very crispy beer batter outside and flaky goodness on the inside. It was a great night out. 💯recommend!”
