“Stopped in here for something to drink and to hang out for a bit as we were riding our bikes. Great vibe, they had volley ball outside and a DJ inside. This is a fun spot to hang out and have a good time with friends or family. Thanks again for the great experience.“

“We visited on a Tuesday evening and had the dining area to ourselves, which was perfect for my 96-year-old grandmother. The quiet atmosphere allowed her to hear everything and more easily join in on the conversations.

Our waitress was kind and attentive, with a traditional touch—she served the ladies at the table before the gentlemen, something I had not experienced before dining here. The food was better than we expected it to be, especially given that the menu was on the smaller side. We even got a slice of chocolate cake in honor of the birthday we were celebrating. Overall, it’s a nice spot to bring your family if you’re looking for a very calm, relaxed setting.

I’ve also included a photo of the menu since I had trouble finding an up-to-date version online—hopefully it’s helpful!“

“Great food. Beautiful view. Awesome service“

We will be back again soon, and would highly recommend to others, no matter the occasion!!“

“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“

“Prime Rib Sandwich is very good.“

“The best tap list in the Twin Cities northeast metro and guaranteed to have everyone’s favorite appetizer and meal on the menu. It’s a must stop for anyone visiting White Bear Lake and has the best patio in the historical downtown area. Whether you are visiting for the first time or lived here your whole life, you’ll love this place!“

“Very high quality food. Steak was amazing and the salad was fantastic. Portions were great for the pricing. Lots of places now have poor salads and this place had an amazing salad. Very fresh and great mixed greens. Great service and easy parking. Would come back again and again.“

“I love this bar, I come in and spend money all the time. I buy drinks for people and always tip the bartenders and servers. Today I came in looking to conserve money because I’m getting hit with school loans. I ask the bartenders if I could just tip a dollar and hang out and he says no. I ask my buddy Dave if he can cover a soda but he’s tapped. So I oblige and go to my wallet and pull out a 5 to pay for a half order of fries. The bartender denies me service and accuses me of getting the money from bar partrons. This is MY money that I earned and here I am willing to spend it in order to follow their rules of no hanging out without spending money.

This man damn near lost me as a customer. I’ve spend hundreds of dollars at this establishment over the last few months.

I still think this is a great bar and the other staff are fantastic, the food is great and people are generally friendly( as friendly as Minnesota can be).

This bartender will never receive a tip From me again. Pissed off that I’ve tipped him in the past.
I just played pull tabs since he literally denied me service.
Once again still a great bar. If the owner would like to know who this bartender is let me know.“
