Fine Lamb Burger. Apps were good. Would *not* recommend the steak, very overpriced for the poor quality. Go for the bar staples but not a place for fine dining.Parking: Free parking lot underneath, access from the road behind near the movie theater.

First time at the Local. What a fun bar. We sat at the bar and ordered drinks. I am a huge bourbon fan and they have Buffalo Trace but when I am at an Irish Bar/Pub, I have to order an Irish beer or Irish Whisky. Went with Guinness. A great pour. We ordered Fish and Chip (walleye and not the cod). It was advertised and best in the state. It was very good. Crisp and not greasy. The chicken sandwich is a marvel. Simply one of the best we have had. Great service. We will definitely be back.

Bangers and Mash on Saint Patrick's day.It was loud, but that is to be expected. Service was spot on, even as busy as it was. Food was great.

We just stopped on Saint Patrick's Day Sunday night. We just missed the bagpipes and the irish dancers. I kid you not. They actually had bagpipes and irish dancers on a sunday night at the local. Great ambiance?? This is a great place to go and the decor and inside is just beautifully decorated and warm and friendly. Plus they have really nice bathrooms.?Parking: Free heated underground parking lot. But get there early because it does fill up. And although it's huge, you'll always find a spot, but you might have to walk quite a ways.

So, in the initial first view, it looked a little interesting. Once going inside, though, I was enjoying the designs on the windows, ceiling above the bar, and the overall feel of it. It was very slow, so there was a minute of wait out of them checking on the few that were there. The employees there were very kind in allowing me to take pics when asking to, which I'm glad of.So, for food:I got the appetizer of the knot pretzel. It comes with a side of cheese and very spicy mustard, but I opted for just cheese. The pretzel had a nice flavor and wasn't flooded with salt, which I'm glad of. The cheese that came with it had a nice tiny spice as well. I loved the detail of there being a "newspaper" article under it.For the entrée, I had a classic burger, adding bacon on it, and my partner had gotten fish and chips/fries. The bacon was smoked and tasted absolutely delicious. I let him have a small amount for taste, and he said it was good bacon with emphasis, as well. The fries/chips were expertly seasoned and crispy, so I had no problems in eating them without ketchup. The burger was well done, so I can't fault them for if the seasoning cooked out of it a little. He had said that the fish was good, too. It's still amazing of the large pieces he had for the fish and chips meal.All around, at least on a Wednesday early afternoon, it was a nice time.

Ordered food for pick-up; soup of the day said it was beer cheese, received chicken wild rice. Went there for the soup, very disappointed when I got home and nothing stating they were out. Left a message since no one answered, and no one called me back. Also ordered a sandwich, said it was a toasted sandwich, bun was barely warm let alone toasted. Will not be back, disappointed with both, especially the soup. Update your site!
