“ Great sports bar and restaurant in North Mankato. Great service (thank you Megan). It's always nice to be in a sports bar when the Vikings win! I had forgotten that Mankato used to have the Vikings camp here-and they don't forget the Vikes here! ”
“ We got good service on a Sunday afternoon. I had a burger with tots and they put jalapeños on it for me. It was very good. We also had the Sunday wing special that was also tasty. ”
“ Good North Kato spot to get bar food...haven't ventured much out of the boneless wings, but the wings are good. Beer selection is pretty basic, and they have free popcorn by the bar. Sunday breakfast lends a good spot for a basic American breakfast of eggs, sausage, hashbrowns and bloody's Nothing crazy, but a solid spot ”
“ This is my favorite bar to eat at. The staff is very friendly, the food is amazing, and the restaurant is always so clean. They have free popcorn, that you eat out of a dog bowl! Get it, Big Dog? ”
