Laughing Sun -- I guess the joke's on me…read more Went to celebrate Father's Day 2025 at Laughing Sun for some BBQ and a beer. I've been looking for good BBQ in Bismarck, and Laughing Sun has been recommended to me quite a bit. The place itself is really cool -- I love the big, open blues venue atmosphere. Axe throwing is a fun touch, and I appreciate that it's sectioned off so it doesn't distract if you're not into it. The line to order moved quickly, and ordering was smooth with friendly service. I got the 3-meat BBQ plate with brisket, pulled pork, and ribs. For sides, I chose mac and cheese, beans, and kettle chips. My wife ordered a half order of the BBQ nachos and a root beer. I had the Space Probe Blue, a sour -- which I really enjoyed. The ribs were great: served slightly above room temp, tender, and well-seasoned. I'm not a fan of competition-style ribs where you're expected to leave a bite mark, and thankfully these were more tender than that. Not quite "fall-off-the-bone," but a really nice middle ground. The pulled pork was solid -- moist, well-seasoned, and with noticeable smoke flavor. The brisket looked promising with a nice bark and smoke ring. But that's where the positives ended. It was the driest brisket I've ever had -- barely edible. Truly terrible. It looked old, and I'd be shocked if it hadn't been sliced the day before. I was genuinely disappointed. Brisket and burnt ends are my jam, and I just couldn't vibe with it. The "award-winning" mac and cheese was served at room temp and was mid at best. The beans were also served room temp and are supposed to include brisket -- fortunately, mine did not. I'd give the beans a 5/10. The kettle chips, though, were excellent -- crispy, well-seasoned, and easily the best side of the bunch. The BBQ nachos didn't go over well with my wife. Her main issues: the pulled pork was wet and spongy, the pico de gallo was overly watery and made everything soggy, and the use of melted cheese instead of nacho cheese didn't work. In summary: If you're after a great local beer and a fun atmosphere, this could be your spot. But if you're looking for killer BBQ executed with care, maybe do what I'm going to do -- and keep looking.

You have a friend of a friend that said go to Robinson and now your wondering WTH do I do there? You are a tourist/wandering nomad thinking there's gotta be a reason to stop somewhere in the vast endless prairie land of North Dakota. You seek the meaning of life, a writer looking for inspiration, or maybe just someone to talk to. You are a local. Liar! You wouldn't be reading this. Ok, additional need to know items. If it's dark out and you blink, you'll literally drive right by this town without realizing. The locals don't wear cowboy hats. Yeah, yeah, there's pictures, out of state regulars. Cash, United States currency in small denominations please. Flash a Benjamin and you're impressing no one unless your buying a lot of beer for yourself and everyone in the bar. But you do get to ring the bell! Ring it like you have a pair or you get the buy another round. Repeat as necessary but it's more fun to roll dice for rounds. Looking for fancy mixed drinks or micro brews? Bismarck is an hour away. Are you a foodie? Hope you like pizza or go to Carol's. So why come here? It looks like another one bar town and there's plenty in North Dakota. You want a sterile modern bar go to Tuttle or Pettibone. You go to Hanson's for beer in a can, the stories, and history in the making. The summer events, especially Kidder County Classic dirt bike race, truck pull, and the 2-day music Center Fest (campers welcome). Conversation with genuine people. Bill Bender. There's a unique story behind most of the decor in the bar and depending on the day and maybe a Jackson he'll tell you. Everything from The Wall Street Journal, identified as a state landmark, CBS Morning news, the town trebuchet, the ICDC, Dale Watson, chicken sh** bingo, the birth place of spoken word karaoke, and so much more. He's also got the fastest modern WiFi in the area. People from around the world have been here and they'll remember the experience for the rest of their lives. So stop reading, get driving, and join their ranks.

One of these orders was accompanied by 4 shrimp for an additional $7. I personally asked for water 3 times and never received it. Finally one of our group asked for two waters and she finally brought me mine. The drinks were weak as well as wrong, the only reason we could tell there was alcohol in them was because of the slight change in color. One order included mashed potatoes and gravy, and they left the gravy out. Both steak orders said they came with garlic toast which we had to ask for. Not only does it cost $1.50 to play pool, but it also comes with extra balls and sometimes not the 8 ball. Just go for stripes because there is far less of those. We had to make our own popcorn as well. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Going here is sure to ruin your day if it wasn't ruined before you went there.
