    What a great place! My husband and I came here with out 3 kids. We sat outside by the water and had pizza, burger, chicken strips and onion rings. All were fantastic! Chicken bacon ranch pizza had a crispy crust and super cheesy. Great burgers perfectly cooked! Chicken strips were easy to chew and not hard and crunchy like some places. Everyone loved the homemade chips! So good and great service! Thanks for a great lunch experience!

    I have been going to the northwoods for 20+ years. Recently we rolled into watersmeet and the…read moregrocery store in town was closed. We were pretty hungry so we hit the Bear Trap. What the heck this is a supper club on steroids. My son and I were able to be seating at the bar. He had the kids cheeseburger, I had side of Brussels, the beef tip appetizer, and the blue cheese wedge. Wow that wedge salad was amazing- the bacon was perfect, blue cheese great and it had a French dressing sauce as well. I have never had a wedge served that way and it was great. My son's cheeseburger was amazing.They use the left over meat from trimmings. Our server (perhaps owner I should have asked) said they don't want to be a burger place. Well I hear you but that kids burger was amazing. The beef tips were fantastic- great Dijon mustard sauce. It was a great meal! Crowd was up north Chicago style- but man the food is stellar. Make a reservation- this is a gem. I was enjoying it so much I forgot to take pictures!

    We dined here with another couple on Fri May 8th. Made a reservation prior. We ordered the cheese…read morecurds and Crab cake appetizer. The cheese curds were fresh made. But the crab cakes hit it out of the park. The best I have ever had- yes- in the north woods the Crab Cake was the bomb. It was served on a wood plank with a red slightly spicy remoulade sauce. Two lovely thick cakes with lots of sweet crab meat. Made my entire week! I would just order these for dinner and add a salad on the next visit. Hubbie and I had the tenderloin infused with the garlic. So good. Cooked to perfection Medium. Our friend had the rib eye and ate every bite. His wife had the fish fry and enjoyed it but could not finish as she had stolen some of my crab cakes. Lovely atmosphere and not too big of a dining room. Such great service from a lovely group of all woman servers and bartender. I think this is our new favorite place to eat in the North Woods. Please do not do anything to that Crab Cake recipe. It is perfection

    Really enjoyed our dinner here. The building, location and ambiance is great. They are located on…read morethe water of the Eagle River chain so the view out of the entire wall of windows is stunning. Decor is undated rustic Northwoods. The light fixture above the bar is stunningly made from a huge tree trunk and has to be seen to be understood but trust me. It is beautiful. The dining room is spacious and welcoming. Our waitress was right on the ball. Arrived to our table promptly, was attentive but gave us space and time to visit and decide. Eventually, she came back with a warning of an upcoming big party so we ordered right away then and our meals came out in perfect timing. The lobster bisque was a very tasty starter for me and was a nice side option for my friend. No chunks of lobster but the seasoning and taste was just right, so no need for salting. I had the Kimchee ribs special. Wow! So tender and juicy. They slid right off the bone, and the wild rice side with avocado was tasty. My daughter had a "spicy" chicken wrap that they happily modified to not be as spicy and she loved it. My friend tried the mushroom Swiss burger that her husband had the previous time and it did not disappoint. My other friend had the brisket sandwich. The meat was tasty but a little dry. Could have used a little more sauce or juice. HOWEVER, he said that the yummy coleslaw on top served as a perfect "moistener". Overall a delicious meal was had by all.

Wait staff never checked on us (maybe another cocktail) but busy chatting with a table of friends. Arely ate anything and my husband noted she picked up your plate without comment !
