“Had my wedding there and everything was so perfect!! The staff is fantastic and it’s the most beautiful place to have a fairytale wedding💕“

“To start, my buddies and I go around to different bars, personally rating them. This one may take our hearts.

This scored 90/100 on our list, but 100/100 in our hearts.

Brett was our bartender, and he was absolutely out of this world. Superb knowledge about beers mixed with an infectious and upbeat personality, Brett keeps everything fun and exciting.

I came in for the first time, we saw cards & cribbage, pool, and some other games, but we did not even need any to be entertained. Brett's personality and conversation kept us interested and involved. Laughter, more laughter, and even more laughter is what really made our experience so great. He even convinced us to play dice.

His 15-year knowledge about brewing and beers made for excellent conversation when discussing taps. A fantastic recommendation, Cyber Sue, kept me at the bar, where we discussed more IPAs, stouts, michigan breweries, and ones around the United States. Great stuff.

Brett, we love you, and we are excited to return to this bar over and over again (hopefully), and excited for more conversation, laughs, and good vibes. All the best for this bar.

“Chose to have our 2024 Christmas Party for our staff at the La Playette Bar in St. Joe. EXCELLENT CHOICE! From the first encounter with owners to save the date and work of the details to the last encounter with their staff closing out the bar bill everything was TOP NOTCH! Ann had the place perfect for us. Their staff took AMAZING care of us throughout the evening. Keep up the good service and great work.
Great Steps O & P“

“Good food! I had the best cheesy broccoli soup I've ever had. Pleasant staff and atmosphere“

“Shout out to Joe and his wonderful staff at Neighbor’s, St. Joe. They provided the perfect venue for my daughter’s baby shower earlier today! The taco bar was perfect, the staff attended to all our needs, everything was timely and exactly what was asked - could not have gone more perfect! Definitely a thumbs up from us - our guests commented how great the accommodations and food were as well. Much appreciated!“

“I recently stopped in at the Hideaway bar after moving to the area earlier this year. As a bar goes, it’s the kind of place where everybody knows everyone else. Don’t worry if you don’t know anyone, you will soon enough. They have great live music, and the drinks are reasonably priced. Their pizza is better than dominoes, or Pizza Hut, and far better than any bar pizza I’ve ever had. Actually, it’s one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had. It’s a perfect fit for this little town.“

“Awesome owner and staff! Great drinks and entertaining atmosphere. Just today a few of us in our MC did a road guard class that Stoney’s hosted and it turned out great. It was nice that they put in the work to host the class. I would recommend stopping in and checking them out!“

“Ordered the Chicken Bacon Ranch wrap, thee best I ever had. The chicken was done to perfection and tasty, was the first time ordering this. The burgers are fenominal. Easily 11 out of 10 stars!“

“This VFW has become our go to Bingo bar on Monday nights. We love this place, the food, the people, etc. Only gets 4 stars instead of 5 bc they charge for REFILLS of soda from the gun. Thats a horrible business practice. I dont know if they are told to or if the wait staff is just doing it on their own. On top of the charge for refills, the glasses they give you are half the size of any other place I have ever been.“

“Beautiful old world charm. they have high ceilings with the metal tiling that I was told was freshly washed during covid shut down. Friendly bartender!“

“Who doesn't love to support a small town bar? We did not try that food. But I think they have some Frozen pizza available to eat.. They do not have tapier but the bottles are about $4 a piece. The establishment is brand new, bathroom jerk and plenty of parking. The locals are friendly so why not give it a chance..“

“Spunky's knows how to throw a party! New Years Eve at Spunky's was a blast! We're new to this town. Everyone was so friendly. The locals took us in as one of their own. Can't wait to party with them again. Mardi Gras??? lol“

“Fabulous bar restaurant- great food and cold beer 🍻! We’ve been coming with and without kids for 12 years- the best!“

“The Ruben was phenomenal! And the wait staff was great!! We will definitely come back! :)“

“We had a get together for a 70th birthday party at Midtown Bar & Grill with about 30 or so people. Great service! Great food! Love the Pinball Games and the atmosphere. Will definitely be going back.“

“A surprising find when we were looking for a restaurant with a quiet side room for a small family celebration. My grilled salmon was great & our server, Mia went out of her way to be sure we had everything we might want. There was even a bar for those who wanted something to drink. Thanks for a great venue.“

“Had the best shrimp tacos tonight! I’ve eaten here many times and the food is always delicious and prepared with care. Large margarita flavor selection. Wonderful service. Great family-owned business. Check them out!“

“This was the very first bar I came to when I moved to saint cloud. It wasn't my go to bar because it was out of my "jurisdiction". Vfw ended up becoming one of my favorite cornerstones. I ended up being in vfw's neighborhood. If your looking for friendly banter, with a Cheers tv show atmosphere. Come to vfw have a couple drinks and ask for juju. You will fall in love with the many patrons and older veterans who make vfw a very cool place.“

“Love the location. Used to live around there. Nice hotel. Hot showers. Comfortable beds. Great place“

“Always enjoy coming here! A fantastic staff and the best pizza! Whether you’re here for happy hour or for a night out with the family, this is a great spot to consider!“

“Muy bueno y muy buen servicio 👍👍“

“Great River Bowl is absolutely amazing! My family loves taking advantage of Kids Bowl Free during the summer. It’s such a fun, affordable way to spend quality time together as a family.

The bowling alley and bar are always clean, and the staff on both sides are friendly, fun, and competent.

The bar side also has amazing food! My family and I have yet to have a bad meal. Everything we’ve tried has been delicious.

We absolutely love Great River Bowl and highly recommend it for families looking for affordable, fun entertainment and great food!“

“As a guest at the hotel for nearby job project, I found Legends as their bar & restaurant, and stopped for lunch on my work break.
I was first disappointed that my call to order before I arrived, that went to voice mail.
I only had an hour.
Went down there and the staff was so kind and helpful. It was Labor Day weekend so no one answers the phone I guess.
* * The burger and fries were 10 out of 10!!!
Perfectly cooked, flavor like fine steak.
Fries had coating that I usually don’t like but they were not at all greasy. Excellent in every way.
The waiter kept checking on me with a cold beverage on a 91 degree day.
It was a pleasant surprise. Thank you“
