★★★★★ 5.0 JJ · Jul 2025

Very fun night. Servings were huge on apps. Had mushrooms, fries, tater tots, wing dings, cheese sticks, mini tacos, and some had burgers were all good food! The service was great! The atmosphere was very nice outdoorsy with all the animals. It looked awesome! Tvs to watch, pool table and music in their thur bike night. Highly recommend! Hidden gem.

I have not yet eaten here however I did stop in one night and met a few people and had a few beers and felt a great vibe here and would certainly recommend others to stop in and have a few and enjoy the crowd and get to know somd folks and share a few stories together.

This place welcomes bikers (bicycles and motorcycles). It was just a few blocks off of the North Central State trail. The owner Jim, bartender Jody, and the customers were super friendly. They love dogs. Our beers were cold. We only wanted a little something to eat as we were biking. The 1/2 lb. of smelt was perfectly done and so tasty. Smelt is a rare find and was the perfect protein punch. A shout out to Irwin Haskell for the history!

1/3 pound burger? I think more like a kids burger from McDonald’s. Order of fries, again children’s portion. Service was slow. Bowl of soup was more like broth with a bone in it. What happened to this place? Do yourself a favor and head up to the Thirsty Sturgeon.

A perfect Up North bar! Decorated accordingly. The food was great, quick, and generous portions. Great selection and reasonable prices at the bar. I had the french dip which was so good (they even toasted the flat bread) that i drank the au jus LOL. My husband had the wet burrito and loved it. We also had fried mushrooms with ranch for an appetizer. We will definitely stop again, and it's right off 75!
