What Chelsy M likes about Poplar River Pub:
I was pleasantly surprised by this cozy bar at Lutsen Resort. I tried the BBQ turkey sandwich and it was absolutely delicious! The fries were crispy and packed with flavor.

Nestled in Lutsen Resort, this cozy bar has garnered mixed reviews regarding its dining experience. Guests have praised the BBQ turkey sandwich and crispy fries, highlighting flavorful kids' meals and a satisfying prime rib sandwich. However, many noted a significant decline in menu quality and inconsistency in service, citing overpriced dishes and indifferent staff.

Do not bother visiting this restaurant unless you enjoy overpaying for mediocre food. The fish and chips are priced at $29, which is excessive. The duck poutine...
