19 Best Bars near Loretto

“This is a great little watering hole but don't let the fact that it is small fool you. Its not the size that matters she says, its how you work it, and work it the detour 19 does exceptionally well, especially the bartender named Brandy. She is the best bartender Ive ever met. And ahe is definitely easy on the eyes too. Thanks Brandy and amazing service with a smile. Id give youna ride on my bike any day of the week ma'am...... Chris“

“Been coming here for awhile now and it’s probably the one restaurant in the area that’s consistent with food, service, and atmosphere. We enjoy the shrimp tacos, French dip sandwich, the chicken Caesar wrap, loaded river rounds and the burgers (miss the burger buffet!) Our server tonight was Brooke and she was fabulous. Will be back as always.“

“We had a delicious meal - a salad with apples, chicken, bacon etc. Chicken was nicely cooked. Salad was beautifully plated and the ingredients were very well balanced. My husband had a steak sandwich and fries from the specials menus, which he said was also great. We "shared" a coffee creme brulee for dessert which was amazing.“

“On the way up north and dropped in to see how this place is while traffic was bad. Workers are all very nice and drinks were good. Place was nothing special, but it's an easy on and off the interstate to grab some bar food and popcorn.“

“Haven't been here in YEARS! Stopped for bloodies on a Sun. With freezing temps & the time of day, the place was close to empty. Bartender was so friendly, as were the other patrons & pulltab person. The bloodies were good & it was a great way to spend the afternoon!“

“One of best kept foodie secrets in the state of Minnesota! I can't say enough positive things about McGarry's Pub. The food is outstanding, the atmosphere is perfect (especially the back dinning area with the oversized booths and wooden floor), everything is made fresh from scratch and you can order most of the delicacies to take home (loafs of their delicious dark bread, containers of their made from scratch salad dressings, containers of their side dishes, etc). If you haven't tried McGarry's yet, don't even hesitate!“

“Cute old old bar, the atmosphere with kitschy decor is interesting, drinks are affordable!!, Menu offers Heggies Pizza and minimal bar food, but lots of interesting people, bingo, fun glad I went. Check the web for the entertainment.Parking: Not a marked lot, catch-as-catch-can!“

“We stopped in with 3 families including fours kids. The food was great, but the service was exceptional. We got seated right away, and there was no problem splitting the check, despite us sitting willy nilly. Everyone was happy with their food.“

“My recent dining experience was an absolute explosion of flavor! The calamari was a perfect introduction - crispy, tender, and bursting with freshness. It's definitely a contender for my all-time favorite appetizer.The burger was a revelation. The patty itself was juicy and flavorful, but the real star was the especial sauce. It added a depth and complexity that took the burger to a whole new level.The flank steak? Wow. It wasn't just delicious, the texture was incredible - melt-in-your-mouth fluffy. A true testament to the chef's skill. I do appreciate the staff who recommended me to have it medium so that I enjoy the tenderness as well as the flavor!And then came dessert: a decadent symphony of chocolate in 50 shades. It was rich, satisfying, and the perfect ending to a phenomenal meal. To top it all off, the flan was equally delightful.The staff were super amazing and friendly, attentive, and always there to ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience. The view of the lake added the finishing touch to a truly memorable evening. Summer can't come soon enough so I can have a seat outside and enjoy it all again!“

“Stopped here on the way back to Twin Cities for lunch....The bartender and cook were super friendly and food and service was fantastic!!! Burgers were excellent...wish it were closer...next time im out that way, I'll be stopping there for sure!!!“

“Even with loosing their main cook last week, they still had a good selection for Sunday breakfast. Our server was on top od things even being short handed. Hats off to them!!Parking: Lots of parking and a special area for motorcycle parking.“

“This local pub has a great selection of beers on tap and some pretty good food too. The revolving tap list is on the chalk board. The food is better than average bar food. Great sandwiches, I tried the small plate reubens and they were delicious. They have daily specials which are also on the chalkboard. I think that they have live music here too. Definitely worth checking out.“

“I can’t say enough positive things about the catering at the Maple Grove location. I had ordered sloppy joes for my Labor Day weekend camping trip. When I went to cook the meat, I discovered that they had given me taco meat instead. Which was, of course, disappointing. I called them the next day to let them know, and they couldn’t have been more apologetic and accommodating. No excuses were made. They just asked how they can make it right. I told the catering manager that all I really wanted were the sloppy joes and he insisted that he provide a side of my choice;anything I wanted. They made it all available for me the very next day and added mac and cheese to my order. When I arrived, the manager greeted me and asked me if there was anything else I might need. Customer service!! That is so rare these days and goes a long way!! I will continue to go to Hy-Vee because of the way I was treated! And all of the food was delicious!! Highly recommend!“

“The point of this place is to get drunk and socialize, and you can absolutely accomplish that here. They've ruined the atmosphere with the stage they added a few years back for bands. I know the intention was good, but bands could fit a smaller footprint without the stage, and it's a single room that absolutely does not need elevation. We played there for years, and having room for people to dance made the experience wonderful. Those days are gone.“

“The wife and I came here tonight for the first time. The service was excellent and the people were nice. I had the walleye burger and it was amazingly awesome. The wife had the prime rib and it was also excellent. We would most definitely come back here again.“

“We sat at the bar and shared shrimp and a steak and fries. It was very good, the bartenders are very friendly and make a good martini. It's quite loud in the bar area, a little cramped, so if you have a hard time hearing it wouldn't be the place for you.“

“We went for Bingo on Monday nights. Bring Cash....bingo is not through Roberts but supports youth hockey. I ordered the Cajun steak bites which were delicious. The crowd was a little rowdy but it was in good fun. Would probably go back again.“

“Was able to be sat right away on a friday around 7pm yay! we started with appetizer Pickle eggrolls... cause we herd they were amazing, Im not big on pickles but WOW!! did we enjoy these to the max! I also had the broccoli cavatappi pasta. Soo delicious!! And ended with a crembrule cheese cake.. yum!! Server/bartenders we friendly and attentive. Food came out timeingly. Overall great expierience. Thankyou!“

“Visited for Sunday brunch, staff very friendly but could be a bit more attentive to the needs of the guests. Some details were overlooked like no side dishes when serving an app, and slow drink refills. Willing to overlook the trivial however, overall the experience was great. As it was a birthday brunch for my wife, we found that they offer free French beignets for birthday celebrations. The atmosphere is very cool, restaurant extremely clean. Would recommend reserving online, without reservations we might've had a wait upon arriving. I will say they need to incorporate more blueberries in the blueberry pancakes - throwing a few berries over simple pancakes doesn't really make them "blueberry pancakes." Try to incorporate them for more flavor. I will highly recommend the hash browns with Gouda cheese - hands down the best hash browns I've ever tasted. Will definitely be back, maybe this time for dinner.“
