Description
Perched on Keyes Lake, this up‑north bar & grille delivers comforting classics — broasted chicken, standout Alfredo, perch, ribs and Cajun pasta — with excellent fries and scenic lake views. The vibe is relaxed and friendly, often crowded in bad weather, but kitchen speed and service are inconsistent, leading to long waits. Food quality is generally high, though salad freshness varies and homemade sauce ingredients aren’t clearly disclosed, so those with allergies should exercise caution.

I understand that staffing can be an issue, but when we arrived at 7:45 pm to find only four tables occupied, with two already having placed their orders, I didn’t expect to wait 40 minutes for just two sandwiches. It was really disappointing, and we ended up leaving hungry because our dogs had been waiting in the car the entire time. After a long five-hour drive, we still had another 20 minutes to go, and the waitress had the audacity to suggest that we should have left the dogs at home. That was incredibly rude. Meanwhile, other customers who sat at the bar were able to order and receive their food while we were still waiting. When she said, “We take care of our own,” it felt like we didn’t matter just because we weren’t ordering steak and lobster.
The fish fry was delicious, and I wish I could have tried more, but takeout options were limited. The bartenders were friendly, and the place was really busy!
