Restaurants in Minocqua

“The pancakes are to die for. I’m not a fan of the atypical American pancake. Unfortunately, I’ve had too many experiences where the center is not cooked and it just repulses me. Lida’s pancakes are light and fluffy and about half as thick as an American pancake, they’re not crêpes. Sooooo good. Occasionally, they even run a special with flavored pancakes. Example Carrot Cake Pancakes! Highly recommend. Their avocado toast is the best I’ve had in the area. The Gyro, Steakhouse burger, strawberry chicken salad & BBQ Chicken wrap are also amazing. Be sure to ask for their signature sauce- it’s delicious. All waitstaff are friendly & efficient. Kitchen staff does their best to get the orders out quickly, even when the place is packed. Outdoor dining area is lovely. And if you’re lucky you might be joined by the local wild deer that wander through the yard.”

“Super cute, great food and coffee and nice outdoor area. NOTE, however that it’s not ideal for remote/laptop working. They will ask you to leave, and there aren’t many outlets available. Great for meeting up with a friend or grabbing lunch. If you’re looking for a local cafe from which to work, try Bottled Bean instead.”

“This place is a stable for the northwoods! Love the coffee, but keep coming back for the evening vibes. The events they host are creative and fun, and they consistently support other local establishments with collaborations. Routinely rotate their cocktail menu to seasonal crafts, and their beer cool selection is huge! The service has always been wonderful, and the vibe is a great spot to hang with friends. Dog friendly outside on the patio!”

“Great place and great service. We will definitely be back!”

“The service was phenomenal from the moment we walked in the door! From the warm welcoming hostess, to the bubbly waitress, the cook staff and the bar staff making everything perfect, we couldn't have asked for anything better. We got exactly what we ordered and the atmosphere was so comfy and welcoming! Will definitely be coming back to try the pizza!! Highly recommend 👌”

“The pizza was amazing, the service was even better. Can't imagine a better place to eat pizza.”

“Best tamales I’ve ever had. Verde salsa had a stronger cilantro taste, but I’m not a huge cilantro fan and I assume I’m biased. Best queso. Everything was so fresh.”

“We have been to MPC many times, but this year after having to go Gluten Free for health reason I was worried I wasn’t going to get the same pizza I loved and enjoyed from here. I was so wrong!! The Gluten Free pizza was equally as amazing as all the other pizza I have come to love and enjoy here. Thank you!! It was so good!”

“Pizza pick up only. My order is always ready for pickup, lover their system of 'shelving' ready orders on wall when walking in. LOVE the original crust pizzas. My favorite pizza is the COWBOY. Great pizza, great service and you don't have to take a loan out for a ex-large pizza!”

“Very pleasant place to enjoy a really good breakfast. Home town atmosphere with many locals eating there. Try it, you'll like it.”

“Usually we try to avoid the tourist areas, we stopped here for breakfast on Sunday morning. We’ve driven past for years but decided to stop. Very nice diner style restaurant with a clean well lit interior. Friendly staff greeted us quickly with some waters. Large portions at a great value. The Greek omelette was fantastic, I recommend the humus, it has an amazing flavor. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“Great atmosphere excellent bartender”

“This place is great! Awesome wine selection, good food menu, and a great comfy environment to relax, talk, and enjoy our time in Minocqua. Can't wait until our yearly November trip up there to visit here again.”

“Great service with a smile.”

“The absolute best - especially if your body doesn’t love the gluten. Nannette is wonderful and bakes everything herself from scratch so call ahead and put in an order early!”

“Great food and service in a nice cozy atmosphere.”

“We enjoyed a most wonderful dining experience last night at Knotty Barrel. Taylor was our server & she was excellent. All of our dinners were delicious, and we loved everything. They have a salad bar which was amazing as well, you don’t see these very often anymore, such a nice surprise. The atmosphere was so quaint, classic up north feel. We will definitely be returning!”

“Point octoberfest beer is good”

“Great little German bier garden in downtown Minocqua serving great traditional brats and sausages, Hacker Pschorr beer on tap and nice German Reisling wine were our choices today with a brisket burnt end sausage, brat with German potato salad. Service was great, so was the food.”

“Great new owners! Always something going on!”
