They had their Easter Brunch and staff basically ignored our table at 3:00 pm.They were more concerned with socializing than attending to customers. No management anywhere to be seen. Absolutely ridiculous.Ordered a chicken taco and it was good.My wife ordered the so called famous Lucy Wild Rice burger. It was tiny. The burger had little to no wild rice and stuffing was basically non existent. Where was the cheese? I took a bite and thought, ...I am glad i didn't order this!Waiter called me "Boss". Which is derogatory!First visit and very disappointed.

Have had two recent visits. Seated at the bar both times. Watched as the bartender reached into the pickle jar twice with a bare hand after carrying dirty dishes without washing his hands. Appalling with the coronavirus scare. Second visit same thing, different bartender. Filled the lemon container with bare hand. Dropped a lid on the floor and picked it up without rinsing and placed it back on the bottle. Makes me wonder about what happens in the kitchen. Your people need to be instructed on proper care of food and dishes. By the way, your walleye for 19.99 was the most disappointing meal. One curled up small piece of walleye and a dismal amount of fries. No bread, no salad. Was told it was enough for two. Wasn't enough for one for $20.00. Never eat there again!! No wonder people get sick!

Understaffed. Like everyone! Good food and drinks with too few servers. I hope the fire doesn't kill ya!

Vegetarian options: I don't eat meat and there were very few meatless options to choose from.

Lousy service, waiter admitted that he forgot all about me. Very disappointed as the entire restaurant was empty for a Monday night. So how could I be forgotten? Random item in food waiter stated it was an over cooked cheese curd. First time and last time I will go there.

Chill spot. Great service. good food. Plain & simple.Detail: I was told to come here and to try the chicken pit pie... So I did. Its not something id normally order, but it was just as good as any other one I've tasted. They did have an interesting tap list. I'd never had a pistachio beer, that was pretty good. Bbq chicken flat bread eas decent... a little more sauce would have been perfect.

Our experience was not the best. We usually love Crooked Pint but this time they just missed the mark. We ordered some of the simplest menu items (kids quesadilla, kids chicken strips and boneless wings) and then watched 3 tables seated after us all get food before us. Our server was nice but only checked on us after we asked another server if our food was coming out soon. Was overall just disappointing especially since they were not busy.

If I could give negative stars for this place I would. Went out for dinner on a Tuesday. My fiancé ordered a Lucy and when it came the bun had mold on the top and bottom! Gross! The burger itself was $16.99 and a (sub) side salad was $3.99. I ordered their special which was chicken tacos. The chicken was either old and/or very over cooked. It was so tough I couldn’t hardly chew it. Also should mention pint beers cost $8.50! Place is a disaster. We now know why there were only 4 cars there at 6:30 when we arrived. Normally I don’t write such reviews but I have to save the next families from dining there. Will never ever return. Ever.

This was my first time here and even though my food wasn’t correct, they made a very noble attempt to fix it and landed me as a returning customer.It’s a good atmosphere, and the on duty manager and our waitress were superb.

Great food, awesome beers, and great service!! The manager Rocks! Nice place to go for a date, with family or even just watch the game.

Love the food, Just wished the service there was up to par. Not very busy during the dinner hour and multiple tables waiting for drinks, food and a server. Just seems like staff likes to just hang out at the back of the bar and when it is convenient for them than attend to their guest. Problem is, I like the food and the facility, just wish staff can step up like other restaurants in town.

I’m not really sure what the deal is with this place. The top qualification for getting hired here is certainly not speed. Whether I’ve been picking up for Door Dash, carrying out my own meal, or eating in house, I always end up waiting an excessive amount of time at the Crooked Pint. The food is usually solid, but plan on a good two hours if you’re dining in.
