My friend requested…read moresomething with mezcal and Abby came up with a delicious cocktail that even I liked (and I hate mezcal)!!! We headed down to the Blue Goose and were treated to some of the best craft cocktails in town. Julian recommended and served me a raspberry cold foam topped espresso martini which is hands down the best drink I've ever had. We didn't try their food but the menu sounded amazing. Prices weren't too bad especially when you're getting this quality of service!! We also came on a night where the Fabulous Armadillos happened to be playing in their theater which was a fantastic atmosphere! I came here about a week ago and Elise made my friend and I some tasty non-alcoholic drinks!

When we 1st arrived they were extremely friendly and even though they just had closed the kitchen down, they graciously reopened it to ensure we were able to get a good meal. Love the small town hospitality. We will definitely be back again.

He always seems enthusiastic and sets the mood for a good time in this underground bar during open mic night. I believe its an open-mic, but I've only witnessed comedians after attending an estimated 10 times. I usually get home around 11:30pm after the show, it begins around 9ish. My good friend Mitch from high school is how I discovered this weekly free event, his jokes are fire. I look forward to Wednesday's at 9pm, laugh from the gut. The added photo is my friend Mitch on stage.

I understand asking us to clean it up, but the server being a total rude bitch about it is totally unnecessary. She was rude to everyone who was not puking. Telling us she going to charge us $100 if we don't clean it up. Charge the pukers card!! Not everyone else sitting at the table! Makes absolutely not sense. Maybe use your eyes and see that girl shouldn't be served. Not our problem. Shit service, and literally the rudest waitress after the incident.

Drake's is a very odd location inside an apartment/elder care complex. Other than that, the…read moreinterior is somewhere between a bar and a standard restaurant. Food was just mediocre. The Wild Rice Cranberry Turkey Sandwich was OK, nothing stellar. Comparable to something you'd make yourself at home, while served with a very underwhelming sized side of sweet potato fries. Not something I'd give a ringing endorsement, but could probably do worse.

Drakes Fine Food & Spirits is an inconspicuous bar and restaurant attached to senior apartments…read morenear Country Manor in Sartell. It's a bit hard to see as it's tucked into a corner behind a parking garage. Follow the signage for parking. It's a nice concept - having a nice restaurant near senior housing, apartments and assisted living, so that family members have a place where they can take their loved ones for a decent meal. The atmosphere is warm and inviting with wood and stone. There are a couple of televisions, above the fireplace. There's a bar. There's a separate room, if you want a gathering space for your family for a special event. The menu is pretty extensive - burgers, wraps, breakfast, steak, chicken, salads, sandwiches, soup, and more. We ordered a Rachel sandwich and a breakfast wrap. Both were tasty enough. My fries were a bit soggy, and the crust on the marbled rye bread was overly crisp. The hashbrowns served with the wrap were nice and crisp. Our server provided attentive and friendly service. The restaurant is small and intimate. This is nice, unless you have some loud talkers seated near you (as we had). Their loud talking made it very difficult for my beloved and I to have a decent conversation and be able to hear. All in all, Drakes is a nice option to have. The food was better than I expected. I'd certainly give it another try. They do offer daily specials, and on occasion, have live music.
