I was told that this bar/restaurant was known for having the best burger in the state and visited a friend there. The staff was incredibly polite when I asked for a more private area for our visit. I order their lobster bisque and it was phenomenal. Next, I had the mushroom swiss burger with fries and from the first bite I knew their reputation for the best burger was true. Cooked to perfection. Moist and flavorful without being greasy. Proportional hamburger bun size with some pickles and I was truly impressed with the end result. I simple dish but incredibly good at the same time. French fries were very flavorful and I could tell they were cooked and immediately tossed in seasoning by hand for a light coating that adhered to the fries instead of salt bouncing off after you receive your order at most places. We visited for four hours taking up a table at this smaller establishment and they never once tried to rush us out or ask politely if we were leaving soon. They actually brought us two drinks on the house and thanked us. My friend and I were having a serious and meaningful conversation and I feel like they sensed that and were incredibly respectful. Every aspect of this bar/restaurant exceeded my expectations in every way. Staff. Kindness. Atmosphere. And most importantly, burgers. Wherever you're at in the region if visiting or just passing by, go out of your way to stop here and support this important local business. You won't regret it.

What a great place! We had burgers and fries and beer from a frosty mug. The food and drinks were delicious. The bartender and owner were friendly and attentive! Seriously though, the best pickles! You should figure out how to sell them. We will be back.

Burger was good very quite when we were there. I was disappointed to find out they didn't buy their beef locally.

Burgers are outstanding so are the pickles and very respectable and friendly
Went to Pickles on September 27th. Heard a lot of good things about it, and I wanted to check it out.
At first, things seemed to be good, service wise. My friend and I each ordered a burger. I ordered a cheeseburger medium well, with lettuce, tomato, and mayo. With fries.
Burgers come, and it tasted great. Great flavor. The problem is the burgers weren’t medium well. They were undercooked. Medium at best, medium rare in some spots.
And this is where the service took a dive. After receiving our food, no one came to ask how things were. Not once. The person who took our orders was too busy attending the bar. After we were done, he dropped off our bill and finally asked how things were. I told him the burgers weren’t medium well undercooked and he just said “oh”, and brushed it off. No apologies. No “ok, I’ll let the cook know”. Nothing. Paid and left and will not return.

A fabulous hidden gem in the Northwoods. Burgers are amazing, adult beverages served chilled, and the atmosphere is fun, fun fun.
