I highly suggest the ham and cheese balls with moonshine sauce as an appetizer. The fish sandwich is very well proportioned and filling! I really haven't had one bad item, ever! The burgers are fantastic and the Castle Cream Ale is very cold in washing down the last bite. The beef is from the local meat market so if you need some good cuts of meat for the lake house/campsite/etc. be sure to stop by Thielen's Meats one block north! The wraps kick butt! Spend a day on the lake, then head to Bootlegger's for a great meal and a cold brew. Don't forget to buy a t-shirt! They are great conversation starters when you leave the wilds of Minnesota and return to the grind of the real world!

They claim to have multiple providers to get more channels but instead cause their patrons to leave and go elsewhere. Male bartender (dark hair/beard) was beyond rude about ppl asking for help with the whole TV situation. We left midway through Q1. Save your $$ and head somewhere else. Management: for love of God get one provider. And expect more out of barkeep.

But that's it, cheap... this place absolutely reeks. I wouldn't dare order food that's been going through the same air fryer for 10 years. Don't bet on getting table service. Wear non slip shoes. Avoid bathrooms. And even if you're 35 years old just looking to have a pop and a late appetizer with friends/family. Bring your I.D. Because they'll kick you out at 8pm while 16 year old little girls can play at the arcade next to sloppy drunks at the pool tables till 10pm. 1/10 recommend anywhere else.
