We sat outside, as there was a nice view of the lake. Put your elbows on a menu, or you'll burn your arms on the metal table. Ordered maple syrup burger and subbed salad for fries. There wasn't much maple syrup and a tiny bit of bacon. I removed the lower bun also. Beef Burgers are fresh and are 1/3#. Bison and Elk are smaller at 1/4 # and frozen. Service was a little spotty. No check-in after we ate or refills of water. Needed to go inside to pay. They do charge 3% to use a credit card, which is not disclosed anywhere. I paid in cash anyway. There is much better food and value compared to Sandbar. Better views, too.

We ordered different burgers and wings, and they were excellent. The burgers were cooked to order, wings were good, and the fries were excellent. Shout out to Abby, our server, who was professional, attentive, and kind. The place has a great "Up North" vibe with an awesome view of the lake. Prices were fair, and bathrooms were clean and updated. BONUS: several gluten-free options including pizza and buns.

When we got there, it wasn't clear where a hosted stand was so we walked up to the bar to ask and were told seat yourselves. We grabbed a spot near the patio door and waited for almost ten minutes for our server to stop by. At that point we ordered both drinks and food. Both came out quickly, my husband got a HUGE hot dog that he devoured. I got the mile high sandwich with wild rice soup. The sandwich was decent but the side of honey mustard with it was kinda odd. Glad it was on the side so I just left it alone. The wild rice soup was good, but could've been hotter. Once we were done, we asked for a box and again waited and waited for the box and check. Cool venue by the lake but if we go back, hopefully a different server is around.

Our table did a mashup of everything - wings, burgers, pizza, and even a grilled cheese. Again - all simple, but all tasty. I'd call this place Perham's top wing/pizza place in town. I split the grilled cheese and then had the buffalo wings. The buffalo sauce was on point from a flavor a heat perspective. And the homemade ranch - heck yeah! Perfect combo! Well done 1894 - we will be back! (PS - we recommend getting some cool signage outside for us out-of-towners)

My son ordered the Belltower Burger which was bacon, mushroom, cheese and sauce which was like a strogenoff sauce. I mopped some of my slider in it. We also shared the cheese curds as a side for $5. We were charged $1.50 for ranch, even though it was free with order of curds as an app. Also ordered Busch Non Alcohol beer for $5.00. It was really nice inside as this was an older church in its past life. The Burgers are 1/2 # and I enjoyed a bite of my son's burger. The burgers are fresh and not frozen and worth ordering. I did suggest hot honey with the cheese curds and turn the peanut butter grilled cheese and bacon sandwich into a burger. I'd return again.

It gives off the vibe of a sports bar but also a place to sit and have a casual meal. The fried pickles came out hot and crispy and they were wonderful! Even after sitting and munching on them after 5 minutes the ones that were still in the basket were still warm. The PB+J burger was amazing! It has a nice little kick with every bite you took. It had the perfect amount of spicy that wasn't too overwhelming. The BBQ wings were also very good! Cooked to perfection and had the perfect amount of sauce on them. The cheese balls were really good but had too much cheese in each bite you took. The cheese balls were also much larger than what we were thinking they were going to be. Roughly the size of a golf ball. The service was splendid. There was one waiter and bartender working while we ate but you wouldn't have guessed that by how fast our drinks and food came out. Our waiter was very attentive and checked in on us, while waiting on every other table in the building. If you are passing through town this is definitely a place to try out!

It was relatively busy when I arrived but found a spot at the bar. A lady behind the bar saw me and immediately looked away. I overheard a waitress come up to her behind the bar(right in front of me)and ask how to split a check and she told her she didn't have time for that shit today. I waited for about 5 minutes for her to take my drink order. I ordered and moved to a table to wait for my friends to arrive. We ordered 4 shots and they come right away but the waitress disappeared for awhile. We ordered drinks and food finally....while ordering the waitress didn't think we were ordering fast enough and said "if you guys aren't ready I'll just come back"....while we were ordering.....overall...food was excellent but everything else was a joke! Another waitress was stomping around and throwing chairs down like it was an event....it was a lot. I came to spend money and have a good time and we left. Spent our money elsewhere. Kudos to the cook! You a real one! Our server never greeted our table, never told us any specials, never introduced herself the entire time we were there.
