“great Reuben sandwich! Service was friendly even during busy times. We will be back!”

“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.”

“We had a great experience eating here. The kids I was with said the cheeseburgers were the second best they had ever had (the first being ones made at home). The waitress was very friendly and the food was good!”

“We stopped by this evening for dinner. There was a sign posted, they were short staffed and there could be a wait for service. One young girl had all the tables and did a fantastic job. We did NOT have to wait at all. She stayed on top of things. We ordered the chicken Chimichangas and the chicken enchiladas. both were excellent! We would order again! While the building is a little tired, the food makes up for it!! We will be back!!”

“Wonderful food, everything was delicious! Nice selection. Staff was super! Price is a tad high, but well worth the convenience of just showing up and not having to cook or do dishes. This has been our go-to for the last 5 years on Thanksgiving. Thank you to the staff for sacrificing part of their holiday with their families to do this.”

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

“Had lunch during the week. Was nice and quiet, food was made fresh. Hamburger was great, BLT could have used a bit more bacon, everything came out nice and hot. My blue moon tasted a little flat but everyone else's were fine. Would visit again.

Parking: Lots of parking”

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

“You MUST stop here!

My husband and I snuck away to Nisswa for an anniversary celebration. The weather was gross (sleet and slush) so we were looking for a nice coffee shop to hunker down to read for a while.
The Courtyard ended up being the perfect spot!

The songbird bagel was delicious (that mustard, WOW) and the iced Miel was to die for. We each ordered a second one for the road!

The service was top notch. The cashier was friendly, and the owner checked on us regularly, striking up a conversation about our weekend away. He even swung around again and gave us 2 cookies for the road - I can’t make this stuff up.

We will absolutely be back :)”

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

“2nd Annual Ice Fishing Group visit. Very nice. we might have been dressed in ice fishing clothing but it's MN so it was cool!”

“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.”

“every thing staff is awesome great food caring about all customers and polite”

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

“Best fresh homemade dough, sauce! They even get their buns freshly made every morning from the pine river bakery ! Every time me and hubby come in we are greeted with such love ! Definitely feels like home ! Tammy is truly a rockstar including the staff ! If you didn’t know where to have a birthday party bowling alley has got you covered !!!! The prices are also very very reasonably priced!”
