Burger Restaurants near Watertown

“We were just passing through town, getting a little hungry, and we saw this place with a bunch of motorcycles out front. (We know what that means!) We went in, sat at the bar, got served by the owner (Greg, I think). I had chili, the wife had a philly steak sammich. Fantastic! We hung out for a while, watched a little football, and met some of the locals. Great food, fun people, nice place. We'll be back!“

“Came here for two reasons: they have a little bit of everything on their menu - and an Old Fashioned for the relatively low price of $8.50!First, the Old Fashioned was quite good. Bourbon (Buffalo Trace in my case) and muddled fruit, not too strong, definitely not too weak - just right (and not too sweet). I've paid more for drinks not nearly as good.As for food, had a darn near perfect mushroom and Swiss burger. Flame cooked to a good medium, with well sautéed mushrooms and flavorful Swiss cheese - tasted exactly the way I wanted it to.A nice surprise was the side - "homemade" tutor tots. Larger than standard tots, these had bacon, sour cream and green onions inside. Crispy on the outside, with creamy potato flavor on the inside, they were delicious.What this all really means is we'll be back!“

“One of the BEST burgers around. It's worth the trip for the quality of the meat. Mushroom Swiss was perfectly cooked, juicy, flavorful at a great price. Lots of choices besides burgers served in a typical tavern atmosphere. Big outdoor space for dining in nice weather. Justin, our server, was efficient and friendly. If you're on a road trip west, give it a try!“

“This place is heart-warming. I had been wanting to check it out for some time as I pass through this area a lot. It is situated in a rural stretch of road in Maple Plain/Independence near the Luce Line walking trail, giving it an almost isolated and greater Minnesota country feel. That carries into the atmosphere of the place when you walk in. I agree with other reviews that it feels almost like a throwback to earlier simpler times. It may seem to some like a diner or a dive bar, but everyone there was relaxed and enjoying themselves.The menu is impressive. You would not expect so much variety. You can get basic all-American foods like burgers, or you can try pretty rare things like frog legs, or they also serve prime rib. The range is wide, which is surprising to consider how they are both capable and supplied to do that. Prices are quite reasonable, too. Meals go from as low as $8 up to $30.In short, we were not feeling too adventurous, so we simply had a Northwoods Burger, a Ceasar Salad, and shared a slice of warmed Pecan Pie. We would get it all again.A shout out to our waitress, Leslie, who was a sweetheart and did all the right things for us.If you're looking for a place to just unwind, have a couple of drinks, enjoy some comfort food and the company of others, then you need to pay a visit!“

“Very nice people with excellent service. Super friendly. I had the blue cheese bacon burger and it was OUTSTANDING. Best burger I've had in awhile. And the tator tots were deliciously crispy. My wife loved her smothered chicken saying it was wonderful, as well as gluten free. Parking was just fine at lunch time. We'll be back as this was a fantastic lunch.“

“COZY AMERICAN DIVE-BAR EXPERIENCE AWARD ?BEST PIZZA IN TWIN CITIES AWARD ?OFF THE BEATEN PATH AWARD ?Arguably the best pizza this reviewer has ever had, outpacing even St Paul Italian pizzerias. If you want to take a quiet & quaint day trip out to the western suburbs of Minneapolis to the tiny town of St Bonifacius Minnesota for pizza, make SURE you make ‘Grumpys On Main’ your destination.Stopped by Saturday March 2nd 2023 about 2:30 pm after a day of shopping nearby. We knew what we wanted, but it’d been a while since we’d been in.The moment you pull up you realize you’re taking a step back in time as this bar/restaurant has many of its original features for your eyes to behold. Creaking floors and doors and a long wooden bar with window cut-outs showing the other non-barstool side of the place greet you on arrival. There is an outdoor fenced-in seating area with tables. Numerous large flatscreen TVs adorn the walls, each tuned to a different sports event. No need for dressy garb here. Regulars and old-timers at the bar will stretch their necks and stare to see ‘who walked in’ and soon as they find they don’t know you, they turn back to their tap beer & buddy conversations. Good selection of beer on tap and bottled beer, and spirits as well.We ordered a large pizza and a couple beers. Pepperoni, ham and green pepper. Nichole was our bartender and Alicia was our pizza server. They were both prompt and courteous.THE PIZZA IS DOWNRIGHT AMAZING. There’s so much fresh cheese melted on it that you’ll need napkins immediately. It is not greasy at all. Crust was medium thin and perfectly baked. Everything tasted fresh and ingredients were flavorful, the pizza’s red sauce was robust and no too tangy, just right. Once you take your first bite you’re hooked for good.Supplied at the non-assuming bar tables are grated Parmesan and red pepper flakes in restaurant glass shaker bottles, salt & pepper, plastic forks and small paper plates. There is no server on duty so you’ll need to communicate directly with the bartender for all orders. It was easy to speak to her between the window cutouts from our table. Other tables away from the cutouts will require you to walk to the bar for your orders.As with most things good, there was a wait time while our pizza was made, then cooked. It took about 15 minutes to receive our piping hot gooey cheesy pizza.We dug in immediately, and you know that OMG feeling you get when you taste something amazing? …well this was it.Two very cold beers rounded out the meal. It couldn’t have been any more the perfect American dive bar pizza experience.Highly recommended !Best Pizza Ever“

“Grabbed some takeout today. Wanted to try the staples of bar food, wings and burger. On the way home, I thought I would sample the tots, little did I know, there were 2 pounds of them . Nice work, Hoppers! Breaded wings were crispy and delicious. Burger was damn good. While waiting for the food, my awesome bartender poured a fine beer and made a tasty bourbon lemonade for me. Will return.“

“My dog wanted me to write a review that she’s very dissatisfied with her pup cup experience—we go to the Buffalo Culver’s occasionally and their pup cups are a small vanilla custard scoop in a cup with a dog treat on top. She said the whipped cream was top notch, though.“

“Good food, Nick and Graham were both very helpful and polite, helped me with my order when I was a little confused, and were extremely professional. Give those two a raise! 9/10Parking: Good parking, more than enough spots most days, and plenty of room.“

“Great Dairy Queen just off of highway 12 with easy access and good parking. Additional parking is available in back if the ones on the side are all full. Friendly staff, quick service, clean restaurant, clean bathrooms. The meal deal that comes with a Sunday is a great deal. Probably the best DQ in the entire extended west Twin Cities metro area. Nice outside eating area as well.“
