“I'm visiting my friend in the woods and we decided we needed a rage beer this Friday the 13th. She never been to this place so we said hey let's give it a try. We wanted to make a great impression to the local community so I backed the car in the parking space so they don't think we are #%*#%s. Well we sat there for a few minutes asking ourselves if we are really going to go inside ? Yes we need that rage beer. Walk we did through two front doors in a row and all these men were sitting at the bar and they turn to look at us so we immediately turn away and go pretend to stand around at a table because we have a problem where we don't know how to act normal. Then I go order the champagne of beers and also 20 pill tabs. Awesome. Well we thought we might win big but actually we just won $4 but I wanted to tip the bar tender. So I brought our pull tab earnings to the bar and said you can just cash in those $4 to yourself sir. He gave me a strange look and chuckled and I wasn't sure if he was happy or if he was also having a rage day ? But he said ok...? Do you want another beer? But unfortunately we had other places to rage today so we just had the one each. I noticed someone had a table reserved for 6:15 so maybe this place itself turns into a rage vibe on a Friday night. Not sure because all this was at like 3:30pm. Anyway thanks Ron. Enjoyed my beer and my winnings”

“The Rustic Diner catered my daughters wedding this past weekend. I can not say enough about Todd and his team! The food was fabulous, so many compliments on the food. They are nothing but professional. Will definitely recommend to anyone looking for a caterer.”

“This is a great place! We stop here whenever we are passing through Moose Lake and have never been less than impressed with the food and service. The gift shop has a variety of gifts and things for the home or cabin as well as some art for sale. The staff is always friendly and helpful. We will definitely keep up our tradition of stopping here!Parking: There is parking all around the restaurant.”

“TL;DR - Cozy and quick stop right off of I35 that has a lot going for it, but a sub-par burger brought down my experience. Would give it another try but probably wouldn't get a burger again.This Was Weird:They add a "voluntary service fee" that is basically a 12% tip to get shared amongst the staff, which I'm totally OK with, and added more on top of that for my server. But in looking at the bill there's no way to automatically not include this fee, nor are there any instructions on what to do if you want to increase/reduce the fee so this "voluntary" fee definitely feels more "mandatory", though it's possible one could just simply ask to have it removed.General Experience:- quick friendly service; was seated immediately and got my order taken within 5 minutes of entering the building.- cozy environment, very welcoming, very clean, and number little gift shop- Food took about 15min to arrive; totally reasonable.Food Experience:- I got the Brunch Burger with cranberry coleslaw as a side.- coleslaw was excellent; not too saucy, and cranberries added a nice flavor.- Also came with a side of house-made... pickles? Pickled zucchini? I wasn't sure exactly but as someone who doesn't like pickles I still found it pretty good!- Burger was overall 'OK': Bun was very good and homemade, toppings were done nicely with the bacon being crisp, onions were nicely caramelized, good egg and cheese, etc. Really the burger was only held back by the patty being WAY overdone. The patty was super dry; all of it's juice and flavor had been cooked out and it really only served to detract (significantly) from the rest of the flavors. It's unfortunate, because so much care was put into everything else on my plate, but the burger patty itself was, frankly, a waste of good beef.”

“Came in here so much during senior year and the following summer! Nothing beats the food here, the drinks are amazing, and the people are friendly. Cannot wait to be back down in the area.”

“Pretty good place really peaceful nice gift shop good smell of coffee one thing I don't like is the chairs are not comfortable they need more padding. If they get new chairs and better padding this place will get a 5 ⭐ rating for ”

“Unique north woods brewery that outdoes the north woods feel better than breweries that are further north. This is more of a locals bar than a tourist brewery. 3 minutes off the interstate, located on the lake makes this an easy stop if you’re traveling through the area. I had the mango blonde and enjoyed it just fine, I will try the flight next time as I will stop here again.”

“Absolutely amazing food and outstanding service. I have never had such a wonderful pizza made by someone so dashing. Will absolutely be back to enjoy more works of culinary art, that Eli Johnson is a master 10/10 recommended in every way ”

“This is a great little gem of a place, nothing fancy but the food was terrific so was the service and the cocktails. We walked in on a Friday night about 7 pm place was pretty full. Waiter said right away the wait time for food was a hour. He put a couple of tables together for us cause we said it was fine there were 6 of us. The waiter was attentive to our needs kept drinks full and water too! Overall I don't think anyone had anything bad food wise or other! ,”

“Haven't had any issues with this particular subway. The only negative thing I would say is sometimes it can be a little bit of a wait when it's super busy. Food and atmosphere are as to be expected.”

“It's a Caribou in a grocery store. The coffee is familiar, and the staff is friendly. The location is acceptable. The food is just as expensive as at any other Caribou.”

“I stopped at Mcdonald’s with my two grandsons, because I needed a break to feed them and change them. My experience at this Mcdonald’s made me very happy and was the best Mcdonald’s I’ve ever been at. One of the workers opened the door for me when I had two kids in my hands, and Lily took my order and checked up on me multiple times. Also, they gave the kids two beautiful maracas, which they were happy with, and made my meal peaceful. The owner was also in, and she was wonderful. Thanks Moose Lake Mcdonald’s!”

“6/4/23, went to the Moose Lake Dairy Queen for lunch and it was quite busy. What looked like the manager(dark haired lady) on duty was very busy with things. She handled a rush of customers and challenging young employees with grace and a smile. Wonderful to witness.”
