Washington Square Bar & Grill

The best tap list in the Twin Cities northeast metro and guaranteed to have everyone’s favorite appetizer and meal on the menu. It’s a must stop for anyone visiting White Bear Lake and has the best patio in the historical downtown area. Whether you are visiting for the first time or lived here your whole life, you’ll love this place!

I like WS because it's a nice place to stop in and have a beer & burger. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed. The bartenders are friendly.

Great pet friendly patio. My dog thoroughly enjoyed the steak bites for her birthday dinner.

So incredibly disappointed. We eat breakfast here frequently. I order the same omelette and they served me the omelett without telling me they switched out some of the ingredients because they were out of what was supposed to be in the omelet. It was terrible. A whole different taste and cold in the middle. Mushrooms were terrible. They did not saute the veggies like they normally do. Last time I went they forgot to put the onions in. I ordered something different and this time the hashbrowns came out super greasy. Service has been spotty as well over the past year. So after this last visit my husband said that's it. We are not coming back here.

Someone needs to have a serious conversation with the team who closed on Monday 9/9. I couldn’t believe how bad the bar smelled of stale beer for breakfast today not to mention my feet were sticking to the floor when I walked in. So many flies inside the restaurant. I understand it’s summer but maybe if the floors were mopped nightly it would help.

The food was excellent. The desert was amazing. Overall it is accessible for those with mobility issues, but make sure you go through the side door as the front door is not accessible.
The service was pretty slow overall, they were not busy, well staffed, but the staff were not attentive, so I ended up having to flag down people twice in one visit, even though we were not in a hurry and I waited some time prior to doing so.
Based on the food, I would go again, but I would ensure that I am not under time constraints based on this experience.

Wheelchair accessibility: The side door is accessible but the front door is not.

Great service whether dining inside or on the patio. Club Sandwich is a mouthful, but worth every bite.

We were taken care of by Thomas on Friday night. We were especially impressed with his beer knowledge. He gave some awesome food recommendations and showed a genuine personality. Nowadays, it's hard to find quality people in the service industry, but you found a gem with this guy!
