“New owner as of March 2023! Huge menu and great bar. The Chit-Chat is now a true "up north" experience. Have fun and say hello to your new place to be.”
“Staying at the nearby Fred Thomas Resort, 4 fellas from outside the area needed a cool local place to watch the Lions slap around the Packers. This place did not disappoint.In the first quarter, Goff threw a questionable pass that ended up in the hands of Green Bay's Ford. Rough start, but Detroit's tenacious defense shut the Pack down.From there, the Lions landed a number of blows, beginning with an Amon-Ra St. Brown touchdown. Did you see that Lambeau Leap. The fans were unimpressed. And another 2 by David Montgomery (I think from Montgomery Gentry fame). That took us to the halftime report where Richard Sherman broke down the Packers' follies with clairvoyant-like insight. Then he sent it back to the human smokeshow, host Charissa Thompson.3rd quarter, Green Bay fought back with gradeschoolesque might, scoring a touchdown and tacking on a 2-point conversion. That brought the score to 27-11. Detroit on top. Could the Packers do it? As this was a live game, we had yet to see. But at the time of this review, it was already clear, they could not. I'm getting ahead of myself.The final quarter was largely inconsequential. The crowd was distracted. And the drinks were flowing.Pitchers of mules, pudding shots, a darn fine burger (w/ jojos). The crowd was raucus. Victoria was gracious. I think a taxidermied walleye ate my friend's foam lion. The bathrooms were clean.Would definitely return. Migh not be welcome.Parking: Whistled right on in there.”
“Fantastic breakfast, incredibly nice staff, and wonderful service. Hashbrowns are as good as advertised and they use FRESH mushrooms. The steak is great...not what you get at Denny's. Everything is so good.”
“The selection of coffee drinks was large and varied. The staff was friendly, as well as helpful in suggesting seasonal drink options. The baked goods were fresh. Ample lite lunch options, as well. It also sells gift merchandise. The indoor seating was sufficient, but not spacious due to the merchandise. I believe the outdoor seating would be awesome when the weather permit.”
“The kind of bar I grew up in. Great beer selection. Cool old school games. Reasonable prices. And a monster of a bar dog. The owers are super friendly nice people. The crowd is always fun. Hope to visit again soon.”
“We met Mary at our first time visiting Mary's Bluegill Bar & Grill. The Friday Fish Fry was the best! We loved the light beer batter! We'll be back!”
“My wife has been swearing for the last couple of years that they make the best bacon blue cheese burger in the northland. I've been trying to make it out during kitchen hours to try one and yesterday was finally the day. About the burger. Lots of burgers these days are half-pound behemoths loaded with another half-pound of toppings. Why do we somehow think 2-3x a normal size serving is what we need in this country these days?Burger is reasonably sized, beef has a big flavor and was nicely seasoned. Bacon was crispy, blue cheese plentiful and nicely melted. Bun was lightly toasted. Wife is right! Go see Bob and tell him you want a blue cheese burger. If you're in the mood, start with a Bloody Mary while you're waiting. Great little place that you have to go looking for if you're in an on-road vehicle. Pretty easy to find if you follow the signs while riding the local trails.”
“After reading up and down reviews decided to try it ourselves. Had sausage mushroom half green pepper pizza, excellent! The crust was outstanding. Sauce a tad on sweet side which is why it was so good. Good service too”
“So good! Great service and food! Cheese curds and pizza were great! ❤️Parking: Lots of free parkingKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly. Kid menu. Separate seating from bar.”
“Had the fish fry. The batter on the cod was a little heavy and the baked potatoes were a little small. Otherwise, the food, especially the fried red potatoes, and the service was good. The view of the golf course is a plus.”
“Never had food here, so, I'll amend this after that occurrence.However, we've been here twice and are impressed.Nice bar, nice atmosphere, great service, and all in a fantastic location!”
“Came in with 3 buddies and the service was awesome! Burgers were perfect. Our server did a great job even though it was her 2nd day. She was a pro!Food & drinks: Burgers are well worth it!”
“Took a little drive (30 mins) to see if the hype was real about the fish fry! It was well worth the drive! Nothing fancy; small town bar that was either gonna be a lesson learned or gold mine! Well, it was a gold mine! The fish was incredible! Four nice-sized pieces, deep fried in a perfect batter. Batter was light and crisp while the fish was fresh and flaky! Strongly recommend giving this little off the grid place a try!”
“Server was good, fish was ok, had it deep fried was soggy, baked potato was not done and brown inside. Husband said his fish was crispy though. He liked his loaded mashed potatoes. Overall it was ok, will probably give it a try some other time.”
“Service is very good. The hoagies that my guest got they said we're awesome. Pizza was had very good cheese .But like any pizza out of Illinois they don't know what spices are like funnel seeds and oregano. But this is definitely one of the better ones from out of state.”
