We have eaten here a couple of times this year. I usually get the walleye fillet and my wife gets fish and chips overall good food, limited food, selection, compared to other restaurants great service, good atmosphere and a Monday nights they have trivia. read more

I frequently eat at bridget's when I am in Bemidji for variety of reasons. He's open seven days a week. It has an ample selection of vegetarian items. It's got great seating both inside and out. And the staff is very helpful and friendly. I ordered the vegetarian shepherds pie this time around. It's a clever, take on a regular shepherds pie, with a vegetarian filling instead of meat. Part of me wishes that it was served to look more like a pie rather than spread out on a plate. But it was still very tasty and I would recommend. read more

BLT was good. Shepards Pie was different than any I'd ever had, but good. IPA was a good one. We were the only people sitting at the bar and one table was occupied. Bartender wasn't too friendly until we were there for a bit, engaging her in conversation. She finally warmed up. read more

Whether you're a local sporting a Viking/lumberjack-like beard or a very confused visitor from hawaii like me, this is an pleasant pub to grab a few drinks and relax. Literally ran in from the -10 degree weather and was welcomed by a relatively chill locale. Decorated all over with Irish decor, it was very green. Bar keep was chill, and working solo but was welcoming. I personally only had a single Guinness as a preemptive saint patty's day treat, but I noticed that they had a nice selection of food via a touch less menu as well. Who would have guessed great wifi or decent cell service in such a remote place like Bemidji?!? Anyways, if you want a drink with friends while watching a game or just enjoying the company, this is a pretty reliable spot. Give it a whirl! read more

Great Irish Bar atmosphere in a Northern Minnesota setting. Good service, clean, authentic. Our group loved the Walleye, Stew, and Bangers. Will be back read more

It's not often that you find an exceptional place any more. The food was exceptional. The atmosphere was individualistic. I understand that originally people came from Ireland to do the finishing work. read more

Just stopped in for a drink. The last time we were here was over ten years ago. The place still looks the same. It is a very authentic looking Irish pub that makes us feel like we are in Ireland. They have my favorite Irish beers on tap. It is a must stop when you are in northern Minnesota. read more

Brigid's Pub - Guinness - Pubs Near Me - Bemidji, Minnesota

I love Brigid's! Everything I try here is good and my boyfriend and I really enjoy this restaurant.

Awesome food and local taps!!! For a starter we ordered the Irish Egg Rolls-- corned beef, cabbage, and Swiss cheese wrapped up in and egg roll. So delicious! Order came with 6 pieces and chips so perfect for sharing. For my entree I got The Best Walleye Sandwich- tasted great! For an up charge I got the Irish Whiskey Mushroom soup as my side-- I would seriously order a full bowl of this it was that good. We order the bread pudding for dessert. It was very delicious but I could only take one bite because I was so full. Great dessert to share as a group. read more

Brigid's Pub - Bemidji Summer IPA, The Best Walleye Sandwich. And Irish Whiskey Mushroom Soup. (Sorry everything is half-eaten) - Pubs Near Me - Bemidji, Minnesota

I'm not a beer drinker so I can't comment except to say there was a large selection on draft. The Shepard pie and the Guinness beef stew were the entrees we ordered. There were delicious and served extremely quickly. We also had some homemade bread pudding. Wow! It was yummy! The waiter was friendly and attentive. Prices seemed fair. I would definitely visit again if in the area. read more

Had the most amazing BLT & sweet potato fries for lunch. Great atmosphere & service! Highly recommend this hidden gem!

The atmosphere is fantastic and so is the food. I've eaten there several times and enjoyed most of the meals and desserts I had. Highly recommend the kettle chips. Fries are good too. Sometimes it's tough to decide between fries and kettle chips when ordering a side dish. I remember noting that some of the menu items were marked as being vegetarian, vegan, and/or gluten free. I think it's nice that there's something for everyone to enjoy. It's also a fun place to drink. Sometimes they have a live band perform. read more

Is really lousy service enough to eclipse the good food and leave a rational person feeling like they wonder what they should do with their invisible powers? Sat at the bar and there were very few people in the place. 2 bartenders and the people next to me made a total of 3. Waiting and eventually I'm told they will be with me in a minute. Ok, benefit of the doubt. The remainder of my time consisted of a lot of averted eyes by the staff behind the bar. I'm not intimidated to politely ask for an another beer, but even I was surprised by the determination to NOT serve. "Chose poorly" continued to penetrate my thoughts. Don't think I'll be back. read more

We randomly chose this restaurant to eat at for lunch. Not sure what to expect, it looked pretty inviting with the outside patio seating. The inside was mostly wood and gave the up north feel to me. I was suprised that I could order the vegetarian pot pie meal and it tasted pretty decent. I do think the best part was the creative fried mac-n-cheese bites! I figured, I'm up north in an Irish restaurant I might as well give 'em a try with my Guinness! We had not problems with the staff, in fact we had fast service. read more

Social distancing done right. These folks have a table out front where they deliver phone orders and put the bill out to sign, with no close contact with anyone. My food was hot, good, and prepared quickly. Happy to support this business in a challenging time. read more

Brigid's Pub tastes pretty darn close to Irish food in Ireland. I've been craving Irish food since I came back from my trip to Ireland, and Brigid's does it amazing! I love that the menu changes all the time. I miss some of my favourites, but I love some of the new ones and the staples. Staff is fairly friendly, though it took ages to get my check one time. Really good food read more

I finally tried this again this week and honestly, don't need to try it again. When we walked in the smell was straight like mildewy carpet yet I didn't see any carpet anywhere. The food was good but not good enough to deal with the smell. read more

AWESOME hospitality! Here with the MN House of Representatives on a tour of Bemidji - the amazing staff catered to our late hours, dietary concerns, and craving for Red Lake walleye. Cannot say enough - Brigid's is a must! Sonny the bartender/server was the best. read more

I don't know about Frank's deal, hope he gets better soon. Look, ,,, I'm sitting here right now. There are maybe 10 people here and all are having lunch. I'm drinking Irish beer from the tap, eating Corned Beef Egg Rolls,http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=PwRERr7pvf3Mjt-WdaKsqg&userid=j2L-iiLnXyolau57SZj_Bw waiting for Lamb Roast dinner and listening to Irish folk songs.

Awesome walleye..pan fried. Special potatoes..worth the upcharge. Nice place..hope to be here again when the band is playing !! read more

I specifically went to have the shepherd's pie or Irish stew. There was no notation on the website or the menu that these dishes were unavailable for lunch. I ordered the Reuben sandwich. There was very little meat...mostly sauerkraut and bread. I was extremely disappointed in this establishment. read more

The food is definitely worth more than they charge. Throughout my week in town I haven't felt the need to yelp until now, this place deserves the reviews! Try the chicken Gyro! read more

Excellent chicken egg rolls made daily fresh homemade chips awesome lamb shaved sandwich very fresh!!! Will return

My partner and I were visiting friends in Bemidji and they brought us here, I got my state fair fix by ordering the Irish Egg Rolls. Deep fried goodness! Fish n chips were top notch too. Coming back when they have live music again. Can't wait until we can all eat indoors again, especially in Bemidji in January, Ha! read more

Made a special trip for lunch. Monday, August 30, 2021. Came for the Irish beef stew and Shepherds pie. At 11:45 am we were told they had just started cooking these and they would not be readt until after 1 pm. Their web site needs to specify if any menue items ate not available until after a certain time. Disappointed. read more

I would definitely catch a bite and brew at Brigid's. Knowledgeable and helpful wait staff, good food, decent brew selection.

Cannot believe this is number #55 - I lived in Bemidji for 3 years and although there are new restaurants in the area now, this is always one I visit when we are in town. Lots of vegetarian options (Mary Plowman Sandwich & Vegetarian Shepards Pie). Also the Corned Beef Egg Rolls are a MUST even if you don't like Ruebens & Bread Pudding!! Great entertainment and open mic nights - under new ownership as of June 2017! read more

We were in town for the weekend and looking for some good food. We arrived at about 9 on Saturday night, and there were probably 20 people in there and 2 wait staff. We sat at a table and waited a good 10 minutes before we were acknowledged. After our menus were brought, we decided to go sit at the bar. It was probably another 10 minutes before our order was taken. Unfortunately, the service didn't get any better. At one point, our bartender pulled her phone out right in front of us and proceeded to play on it without acknowledging us. The other bartender consistently had his back turned to us to watch the basketball game and didn't say a word until we left. Also, one of the bartenders came back behind the bar with her coat on, most likely after smoking or taking the trash out, and didn't wash her hands before processing our payment. As someone who has worked in food service and hotel management, I know that this is against health code. Fortunately, we weren't ordering anymore food or drink, but it makes me wonder when the last time she washed her hands was. The food was phenomenal. My husband had Brigid's burger and I had grilled cheese and mushroom soup. We kept talking about how good the food was. Unfortunately, it's not enough to make up for the absolute piss poor service we received. read more

Visited again for a business lunch in November 2019. Service was quick and friendly. The food delicious. Everyone was happy with their orders. read more

Hands down this is the best place in town for great food. The flavors and consistency are what make it our favorite place to go! Always happy and full when we leave. I love that most of the ingredients are locally sourced and always fresh. You can order any burger on a salad to be Keto friendly. The Dream boat burger/ salad is my go to. read more

Food is good, but...... Has several good dishes but is hampered by a consistently bad wait staff. They act like serving is an imposition. Too bad as the food Is good. You just get the sense that they don't care to help if they do not know you. read more

While in town for a hockey game, we decided to go for some appetizers and drinks before the game... Very nice selection of beer, but unfortunately they didn't have a beer menu .. They were simply written on chalkboard type part of the wall, so unless you were familiar with the micro brew, there weren't any descriptions of it.. Ended up selecting the Bemidji brewery beer and it was very good ! The corn beef egg rolls are to die for!! If we're ever in town again, I would order them as an entrée, so I don't need to share them. Server was fast and friendly! read more

Great food. Fish and chips were fabulous! Actually had several Irish beers on tap. We will be back!

Came in for a late lunch and a pint. Menu has lots of vegetarian options most of which can be made vegan. I had the Merry Ploughman; delicious! Great ambiance and service. read more

Brigid's Pub - A Ploughman and a Pint. - Pubs Near Me - Bemidji, Minnesota

During my recent two week stay in Bemidji, had the pleasure of dining at Brigid's twice. Here's my take! First visit ended up later in the evening with several friends, we split a couple of appetizers. Especially memorable were the Irish eggrolls. These could also be called Reuben eggrolls which were simply destined to be loved by me as I love anything and everything Reuben :) These are nicely decked out with corned beef coupled with the right proportion of cabbage. The dipping sauce was like an extra tangy 1000 island, was decadent but wonderful. The rolls are served on a large pile of thick potato chips - we gobbled them all up. In fact, I enjoyed these so much I don't even remember the other side they ordered, I think it was just french fries so I didn't eat them. Second visit was on a Saturday in July for lunch. Tried their signature Irish whiskey mushroom soup - if you are a mushroom lover like me, you will enjoy this soup. Yum. The Smithwicks on tap was the perfect temperature and I drank two or three :) Service as ok, maybe a little slow. Other bonuses: several vegetarian options on the menu, option for half or full orders - why don't more places have this option? Fabulous old world pub atmosphere - just my kind of place and hope to be back next year! read more

We had the Irish grilled cheese and the Pub chicken sandwich. Both were awesome. The Killarney sauce is one of the best parts. Order the French fries they are really great! They have good beers on tap and a great bartender. Good service all around. read more

Hit or miss. Sometimes I have had good food, sometimes not. I like that when I order a Guinness they do it the way it should be done and let it settle, just like they do in Ireland, I don't like it when they forget to bring it to me though! Aside from that, the staff are usually pretty pleasant in my experiences here. I'll go back for drinks and eat dinner elsewhere. read more
