The wings were amazing. 10 good sized boneless wings that were crispy but not skimped on the sauce. The staff was all smiling and gave great service. Will be back! Oh yeah and great selection of a variety of different lakeside brews on tap. I rarely say this about brewery’s but I truly feel like they have a beer for everyone’s taste on tap!

First time to Detroit lakes and me and my best friend were looking for a place to eat. And we found this place and our server no I'm sorry let me take that back our hospitality specialist, Savannah was an absolute treasure. For me to say this is a big deal, everything was beyond good, it was outstanding. The experience and the hospitality we received was very well worth the chance. We will definitely be coming back. Until next time, y'all have a great one and the whole crew was amazing not just savannah. But overall this place is amazing. And the vibe was beyond what I ever expected. Best service I've ever had anywhere, the Best!!! She needs to be head of something. She needs to management ASAP!!!!

We did two flights and grilled cheese with fries. The food was good (I know it’s hard to mess up grilled cheese). The beer was really good too. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. The bartender was really nice, it was fun chatting with him. This is a place we will come back to.

My husband and I split a burger and chicken pot pie. They both were really good and he had a salad and I enjoyed the chicken soup.

Great place by the lake. Our waitress, Rachel, was friendly and attentive. Food was fast and good. The clam chowder was amazing. I know I'm gonna dream about it! In all, we're very happy with our visit.
