Restaurants near Pequot Lakes

“Fantastic pizza! We scarfed it right on down. The taco is sooo good, but the chicken pesto? 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼 Amazing!! I have also gotten the chicken strips and cheese curds which were also super delicious!”

“Go here quite often. Great staff, food, and fun. I highly recommend.”

“Old school great pizza thanks”

“Went to A Pine for the first time today. Had eggs Benedict and raspberry fritter French toast. Both were delicious. Wait staff were great! Also brought home a slice of Dutch apple pie. So good! I’d highly recommend stopping by and having a great meal’”

“We were there yesterday and I left my denim shirt. The bartender Derek saw it right away and put away for safe keeping! Thank you! The whole staff is great!”

“We were so happy to find this new restaurant. The food was amazing ( especially the butternut squash). There are unique menu options and the service was fabulous. I highly recommend this restaurant and, next time we are in the Brainerd area we will be going there again !”

“Ice cream, cones, cotton candy, bubbles. What more can you ask for?!”

“I stopped in around 2pm on 7/5 while heading home from up north (for a to-go order). They weren't very busy, likely because they close at 3pm, though it felt like they'd had a busy holiday weekend.

The staff was friendly & quickly helped show me on the dry-erase menu boards that a few items were no longer available for the day on their house specialties menu, including paninis & breakfast sandwiches (the BYO lunch menu also wasn't available). My husband had hoped for a breakfast sandwich, but breakfast ends at 1pm. I ordered the veggie wrap with cheese & ranch instead of mayo & avocado. They were skimpy on the cheese & ranch, but the ingredients were incredibly fresh, which made up for it (and because they were conservative on the ranch, it wasn’t soggy to eat half later). The full-size wrap was huge and it came with kettle chips & a pickle spear. I’m primarily vegetarian & appreciated having a filling option— it felt like a great value.

My husband said the mini glazed donuts were pretty good. I loved browsing the fun gift shop area, especially the greeting cards. It's only about a mile off Hwy 371, and I'd definitely stop back to try more of the menu and grab some to-go items.”

“Excellent service, great selections, delicious food, and gorgeous wooded setting. My sunfish appetizers were fantastic!”

“Fun and relaxed place for a meal. Food was great!”

“Good food, home town feel”

“Marina II was part of the all inclusive golf package at Breezy Point. Ordered the pub steak and lobster with cheesy hash browns. Steak was cooked to medium rare as desired.

Our group split a cheese curds appetizer (very generous portion) and that was excellent also.

This is worth a short drive if you are in the area, even more ideal if you are staying at Breezy Point.

The view from the restaurant is nice, overlooking a bay of Pelican Lake. Reservations likely recommended on weekends, not too busy during the week.”

“Wasn't very hungry so we just ordered nachos for the 2 of us. It was a huge portion, more than we could eat. Service was okay. It was bad timing because shift change occurred while we were there. Service was great to start but when our server left then we were ignored by the next shift, had to flag one down when we wanted something so we drank up and left. When I looked back from the door I noticed that the couple moving in to take our seats had a server right there to greet them before they were even seated. Oh well, it's not the only bar in the area.”

“Good prices for ice cream and treats, but coffee drinks are a bit spendy. They could add a kids cone, but the server was kind enough to put part of the enormous double scoop in a cup.”

“#1. The waitress’s were by far the most friendly, welcoming, down to earth ladies I have met in a long time! (To my kindred AZ waitress, the ice isn’t that bad, if I can do it so can you!) #2. The food - coming from a pretty picky person when it comes to what ”good food is” ….mouthwateringly delicious! Every bite from the cornbread, to the brisket, burnt ends, mac n cheese, & potato salad. #3. The place is clean, with a gorgeous view of the pristine looking golf course. What else can I say, try it! You won’t regret it if you know what good food is. We will definitely be coming back.”

“A group of friends and I were at the Commander on Friday and Saturday night...we were so impressed with our waitress both nights. She was working with a broken arm and was always there when we needed a drink or something from the menu. She had a great attitude and was super fun. I believe her name was Alyssa.”

“I am so thankful that you deliver food to my work! The summer berry salad is amazing! Thank you so much!!!”

“The best stop for food in the area! We all love getting lunch from shiners!”

“Stopped in today and was immediately greeted by 2 employees....super friendly! Bought a few pastries(had them for dessert 🥰) and a giant cinnamon roll for Breakfast!!”

“Everything! Great place!”

“Was looking for a quick place to catch a beer and some "bar food' after a day on the lake, so we stopped in. Turns out we were wrong, this place served cold beer from a long menu, had the most courteous staff (were more than happy to deal with food allergies, with a smile) and then served us food that should have been in a top tier restaurant. To say the least we were more than happy and will always come back when in the area.”

“Had the meat lovers pizza, really good!”

“Hands down this is one of the best coffee houses I have been to! Great prices and customer service is outstanding, and most importantly they brew the best locally roasted Coffee.”

“Great food and service! We had the shrimp tacos and a Reuben. Both were excellent. Very good tap list and drinks as well.”

“Great eggs Benedict ( and I’ve worked for years in the restaurant industry). My favorite breakfast place in the Brainerd Lakes area. Plus, they are family owned and run. Love it!”

“Try the cinnamon Christmas with hot honey! 🔥 🍯. So good!”

“Best food and the service is excellent”

“the atmosphere, charcuterie board and drinks were amazing and the hostess/bartender was wonderful It is a must stop when in the area”

“We haven’t been to Zorbaz on Gull Lake for years and decided to try their pizza tonight! It was ready on time and tasted amazing with generous toppings! Well worth the money! We’ll be back!!”

“It was amazing food and the help was amazing as well. Great place to eat at!”
