While in Bills territory was looking for a place to try and watch the Eagles game. Both played 1PM on the same network. The owner/mgr made an effort to put RedZone on for us because it was acting up. Had great conversation with him and bartender during the games. Food was good bar food and had great beers on tap. Nice little spontaneous find for a Sunday afternoon!

Beware the parking lot! Someone thought it would be a good idea to put a dangerous rock by the curb to the street, perhaps so cars don't cut the curb. But the rock, and the curb itself, are too low to see from a higher SUV. We hit the rock and it dragged our muffler. The nearest place to look at our muffler is hours away. The sign on the door said the owner had closed for the week.

Great views, atmosphere is amazing, bartender is great, owner can’t melt blue cheese on a burger. Everything served in to-go containers. Waste of a solid location. Under seasoned, sysco provided basic. Go to Wendy’s unless you want a great view of the lake, otherwise, pack a picnic.

Food was average, good but not up to the hype. Hated ordering at bar and then waiting around to get food... No personal attention then having to tip.. it was counter service like a McDonald's. But atmosphere is nice.

Came on a weekday and still had to wait 30+ mins for food, so you know it's a popular spot. Nothing fancy here, just straightforward food and a lovely view of the lake. The fried fish is excellent!

Great food and atmosphere! The breading on the onion rings and fried mushrooms was sooooo good. Glad we stopped here!

Incredible food, great beers, awesome atmosphere. Glenwood Pines was our harvest host for a night so we came in for lunch as well as dinner.

For lunch I went with the pineburger and wings combo. Wow. Every component of this plate stood out. Extremely fresh roll, juicy delicious burger, and 1000 island dressing is a new favorite burger sauce for me. The wings were perfect, juicy and tender, crispy on the outside, and they have an awesome smokey flavor.

Dinner was the fresh fish fry, also incredible. The fish was definitely fresh, cooked perfectly. Flakey on the inside, crispy batter. Same goes for the fries. Topped off with a great local IPA. Also, you cannot sleep on that slice of peanut butter pie for dessert.

Owner and staff were really great, service was excellent and friendly. Very relaxed and inviting atmosphere. Overall a really awesome place I wish I was closer to, and will go far out of the way to visit again.

A far cry from what this place used to be is realy all that can be said about the place. You come in, have to stand in line at the bar to order your food, have to wait around the area for a good 20 minutes to pick it up in a plastic box with a pair of plastic utensils.. McDonalds has a greater Restaurant feel, than this has now. COVID is just not an excuse anymore. It's been years. So quit cutting cost, on customers expense! Not serving people, no customer service to speak of, but sure willing to take a tip. Just to bad, we used to love to stop there when visiting. Won't happen again. Very dissapointing

Just a waste of good money. I just wanted a burger well done.
Burger was not well done and leaked red onto the bun. If your talking atmosphere the air was pleasant and clear. There is no service. You pick up the food in a throw-away container and go outside and throw it away. Cannot reccommend.

Good food at fair prices.

Kids menu was portions-appropriate for a kid

Wings were Smokey and tasty- the buffalo sauce didn’t have the vinegar zing that is typical but it was still good

Burger was cooked well and served on sub bread

Game room was neat— perfect for little kids to try out retro games - pinball, etc.

Funky decorations made this place really fun to be at.
