She was very friendly and checked in with us at all the right times. The food was very good as well. We had the bacon jalapeño egg rolls, French dip w/parmesan garlic fries, and the smoked salmon BLT w/truffle fries. The egg rolls were fantastic, I would get those again for sure. The French dip was also very good. The fries were worth the up-charge, so good. It was enough for a couple of meals. My boyfriend had the salmon BLT and loved it. He said it was savory and delicious! I would be a regular customer if they weren't so far from home. Overall, a great experience!!

So far, I have tried their steak sandwich, a burger, and their homemade pizza. All filled me up but didn't want me to make this a destination stop. Service is solid and beer options standard for the area. I love the fact that this has been around forever and for that, I am upping my review to 4 stars. There are a few options close by that I believe are better but if you happen to drive by, it is worth just stopping in for a cold one.

I was impressed they offered hand breaded fried haddock and went that route and was very surprised on what I received. 3 fish "fingers" that were not only small in quantity but utter of almost any taste. Still questioning if it was truly haddock. The German potato salad was the saving grace. Sweet. Tangy. A perfect balance with chunks of bacon for richness. It's close to the lake house so I'll be back in hopes they just had an off day. Probably will still clear of the fish fry however.

We drove to another campsite to shower (you read that right), and drove passed the Wierl Wind. We thought it was a little store, so we stopped in to buy some beer. We walk in - not a store, it's a bar. Mind you, it's about 10am on a Saturday. After realizing it was a bar, we said hell with it, we can't be rude and walk out, so we sat at the bar and had a few. There were dice on the bar, and the bartender said they have a little "game" - I forget all of the combinations, but if you got 3, 4 or 5 of a kind, you won a certain "prize". One of us won a free sixpack - to drink there or TO GO! Conveniently, there were six of us, so we got another round free. Behind the bar, I saw a weird looking jar of...stuff. I asked what it was, and the bartender grabbed the jar and put it in front of me: PORK HOCKS. Being a suburban boy all my life, I had no idea what it was. My friends dared me to eat one. The bartender got some laughs out of us. I ate it, certainly wasn't delicious, but worth the $5 from my buddy! If you're in the area (read: middle of frickin' nowhere), stop in. They're good people.

They were out of their Walleye special so opted for the combo platter-I chose cod and perch as my option with a side of german potato salad. The fish was perfectly fried with the beer batter on the cod and breading on the perch being a perfect complement to each fish. The german potato salad is a must get and some of the best I have tried (next to my mother's). Excited to try their weekend breakfast at some point. Their exterior is being renovated at the moment-just look for the solid door with the Pan and Parlor sign to enter. A great addition to the Campbellsport area.
