That is extremely disappointing and annoying. she did make a perfect mix, however. 2 cheeseburgers w/ff took way longer than they should have, it was not busy at all, the burgers were lukewarm warm, the cheese melted on the side had already "settled", these are NOT like the old Franny's burgers we stopped to eat every time coming to the lake. I observed 4 people come through the back door and make their way back to the kitchen, come and go, one woman came out eating 2 pieces of bacon; very disturbing.

Service was friendly, but a little slow. I will say I thought my burger was better than average.read more

The dining space feels a little more upscale and fancy, but the prices honestly aren't bad and there are plenty of good options on the menu. I ordered the 10 oz top sirloin with green beans and a loaded baked potato. The steak was cooked how I asked and definitely hit what I was craving. It was pretty good overall, though it got a little dry toward the end. I also tried the Brussels sprouts appetizer because it sounded interesting -- it came with a creamy balsamic, bacon, onions, and goat cheese, which made for a really unique combination. Others at the table ordered coconut shrimp, chicken strips, and fish & chips. The coconut shrimp seemed popular, although the dipping sauce had changed. Overall, this is a solid place to stop if you're in the Glenwood area or spending time on the lake. Nice atmosphere, good service and a beautiful view, and a menu with enough variety that there's something for everyone.

Wings were hot, crispy and very meaty. Came with an assortment of sauces both dry and wet. My favorite was the dry Parmesan garlic and the hubs loved the bourbon.

The decor is pretty sparse, but the place is huge with TONS of seating. The best part of the space is easily the back patio. The massive garage doors open toward Lake Minnewaska, creating a really nice indoor and outdoor setup with great lake views. You can also pull your boat right up to the dock, which makes it super convenient if you're spending the day on the lake. There's even a liquor store inside if you want to grab something to take with you afterward. Unfortunately, the menu is incredibly limited. There aren't even any salads, which seems like such a weird omission for a lakefront bar and grill. The drink selection was also surprisingly limited. They didn't have Sauvignon Blanc, which I thought was pretty strange. Our server was nice, but didn't know the menu at all. They couldn't really provide recommendations and couldn't even answer basic questions about the food, including whether the bread on the BLT was toasted. The food itself was a mixed bag. The coleslaw was actually really good and super refreshing and the crispy chicken sandwich was pretty good too. The BLT, however, was SO basic and sad. It came with one small tomato and a single leaf of lettuce and just felt like something you could throw together at home with almost no effort. Overall, the lakefront setting and huge amount of seating give Captain's a lot of potential, but the extremely limited menu, lackluster BLT, limited drink options, and lack of menu knowledge from the staff made the experience pretty disappointing. The ability to pull up by boat is a great perk, but I would not go out of my way to come back for the food.

The brewery has a large indoor and outdoor space, and we especially appreciated that it's dog friendly, so we were able to bring our pup inside with us. Outside, there was plenty of room for dogs to stretch their legs, along with lots of shaded tables to relax. Their beer menu was extensive--almost too many options to choose from! They definitely lean into unique flavors, with offerings like a pickle margarita beer and a mango wheat that made for a fun tasting experience. While none of the beers ended up being favorites for us, we still enjoyed the atmosphere.

We started with a build your own bloody- a really fun way to add some veggies (they had olives, celery, cheese, sausage, pickles, etc)! I had the caesar wrap and there really wasnt much caesar to it and I wish it was chopped up within. The salmon was whole and when I took a bite, it could be pretty dry. Salmon was good however. We also had the golden burger, and it was WET. It was something you had to eat right away and was a MESS. I think less sauce would be recommended- but it was pretty good. The mess did take away from the enjoyment. Lastly, we had a few french dips and this is always a staple. The au ju was tasty and a great addition. The overall sandwich was pretty good, however it was a bit small. Im excited to come back in the future and try more.
