Friendly and helpful staff. Just wish our drinks stayed filled up more often. Food was pretty. Philly steak was pretty good. The appetizer cheese curds were really good. The mashed potatoes were a bit on the weird side and served a bit on the cold side. Otherwise the rest of the group liked their food. They do have some good gluten-free options which are group appreciated.

Fantastic staff, the owners are always happy to greet you, they have one of the most energetic atmospheres I've ever been too. They have top tier food, plates you think you would pay 50+ for. There's lots of events and they have music & karaoke... this place is the hot spot in St Cloud.

The Pickled Loon was an absolute vibe. The music was bumping, the ladies were dancing, and everyone was hanging out having a great time—it felt like the whole place was alive.
What I didn’t expect (and loved) was the hidden gem upstairs: not just another bar, but a full-on dance floor. And when I say packed, I mean wall-to-wall, shoulder-to-shoulder. Think college-crowd energy, with a dance-party-meets-techno vibe, beats pumping, lights flashing, and sweat pouring because nobody wanted to stop moving.
If you’re looking for a night that feels more like a party than just a bar stop, The Pickled Loon delivers. 🎶💃🔥

Disappointed for first timers. The atmosphere is nice and cute but the service was very lack luster, inattentive and slow when it was very slow and not busy and the food all came out like 5 to 10 mins apart so we didnt really get to enjoy it together. The food was average but even the fries were not seasoned and like most of the menu items were sold out/unavailable.

Great fry food. Like state fair level good. Unfortunately service was less than friendly and it took forever. Intentionally. We ordered apps, meals and drinks. We spent $160 for four people, still not even attempting to be friendly or on top of service.

We were outside, and there was a couple sitting next to us smoking. The food was mid and service too. The waitstaff were VERY friendly, but the place was nothing to write home about.
Great drinks, and solid bar & Grill food. Atmosphere typical for a modern Gastropub, although less pretentious than many of its ilk.

We and my girlfriend stopped here for lunch and it was our first time eating here. Since the weather was nice, we decided to sit at the outdoor patio. We were greeting by a friendly waiter who was happy to give us some suggestions on their popular dishes. I decided to get a pickled loon burger and my girlfriend got the Rueben. We got the dill pickle cheese curds as an appetizer. The food came quick and looked great. The cheese curds were hand battered and were very light tasting. Not drenched in grease and were very good. My burger was pretty good but I think next time I’ll get something a little more different than just a bacon cheeseburger. The gfs Ruben was delicious! I was lucky enough that she shared a few bites with me and it was phenomenal! Prices were great as well. About the same if not a little cheaper than fast food but tastes wayyyyy better!
This place is a fun hang out. A very cool atmosphere inside and nice and relaxing and a good place to people watch outside. I would highly recommend this to anyone in the area! I can’t wait to go back and try some others!

My burger and beer were great. The server who seated us was great, too. The food took a really long time to come. My wife ordered chicken tacos. (She rarely complains about food at all.) But tortillas were cold, dry, and stale. They were so cold that they warmed up as we were sitting there. What was inside the tacos was flavorless. Told our waiter and he just shrugged and said sorry about the tacos. No attempt to remedy or discount. So we’re writing this from Noodle & Co because we needed to stop and get my wife a meal afterwards.

Me and my girlfriend went here on a Friday evening and it took about 45min -1 hours to get our food after asking the waitress 3xs and threating to cancel our or order food arrived and the food was lukewarm we told the waitress and she took our pop and drink off the bill to compensate for wait time and not warm food. Overall it was decent experience here and we will come here again in the future just not on a Friday evening
