    Average all around…read more Simple bar menu with average prices. Food is good, but nothing spectacular. Drink prices are slightly below normal. Service is adequate, have patience on busy days like BINGO on Wednesday, Saturday, & Sunday. They keep the place clean and the volume varies wildly depending on time of day and events. Check out their website calendar for bar, restaurant, and events schedule.

    Our visit took place on a very cold afternoon and shared the restaurant with fewer than 20 guests…read more Having recently discovered other American Legion Post restaurants in the area we were looking forward to giving this newer Post a look. Anyway, the building, both inside and out looks great...neat, clean and more spacious than I can imagine them using unless their event gets REALLY busy. Our server, the bartender was polite and attentive. Coke products are in place with no Mr. Pibb or Dr. Pepper. Downside: the menu is very limited and a good bit more expensive than other posts. My flatbread pizza was just OK but definitely overcooked. My buddy's Walleye Bites were fine but there was nothing special about the tartar sauce nor the thick breading. The credit card "convenience charge" doesn't help...I used a debit card and still get confused when it appears on the bill. Who is the card convenient to...definitely not the guest. This place, while still new, is at the bottom of the Legion Post restaurants. There's lots of work to be done...starting with the menu.

    Gallagher-Hansen Post 295 VFW - Waiting in line for fish fry.

    This is for Lenten fish fry: ATMOSPHERE - This is one of the…read morebiggest VFWs I've been to. There's a large bar area, then in an adjoining room is a dinning space with another bar. It's very patriotic as you might imagine. There were lots of kids around, and everyone knew each other, which was lovely except there was a "you don't belong" attitude by some. In particular, the server in the bar in the dinning area ignored my two girlfriends to the point of taking an order from a gentleman standing BEHIND them. Thankfully the gentleman called her on it, and made her take their order. And I'm glad to say that was the only person who was openly rude. In fact, the people at the fish fry were all super friendly. FISH - The set up here is really great. You wait in line to pay, then the line becomes a line for the buffet. It's great to be able to fill up your own plate. The buffet table had baked beans, macaroni & cheese, dinner rolls, boiled potatoes with parsley, cole slaw, and of course, fish. A new serving of freshly fried fish came out every few minutes to replenish the buffet table. The fish had a breading type of batter (rather than a light fluffy batter.) It was light and flakey, hot and crispy, it was wonderful. COST - $10, this was a steal! EXTRAS - When we were there former Gov. Pawlenty and his family showed up. Plus or negative, that's your call.

    Everyone raves about their Lenten Friday fish fries (we used to volunteer with or scout troop to…read morehelp bus tables), but fish has never been something I enjoy. We usually go with my parents after church on Saturdays. Most of the tables in the bar area are high top, and we have a 9-month old, so that can be difficult if all the lower tables are taken. But they do have high chairs available that work fine at the lower tables. Their food is always good, affordable, and out to your table quick. If it's crazy-busy with people ordering food, it might take a while, since I've never seen more than one cook in their small kitchen (they have another one that gets used for fish fries), but we've never had a problem, since most people are just ordering drinks. They only part that's a bit of a bummer for us, is that if you order a pop (the hubbs and I don't usually order alcoholic beverages), it comes in a small solo cup, and you have to pay for a refill (I'm sure that's part of being a bar). We each typically order a water and a pop right away, then we don't go thirsty or have to pay for another small pop.
