Said that their best cook was in the kitchen and we couldn't go wrong. I had the pork tenderloin sandwich and fries. This sandwich was huge and for me required a knife and fork. It was delicious. I skipped most of the bun so I could concentrate on the pork. I wanted every bite. My husband had a bacon cheeseburger. They get their meat from the local locker. He said it was tender, moist and flavorful. And it was too big to finish. It was very clean and accessible friendly. Got to love a bar with clean bathrooms! We will definitely remember Lucky's Pub in Hayward MN next time we are in the area.

Went for burgers on a Friday night. We specifically asked our waitress if they made burgers medium…read morerare and she said "yes, she would put it on the ticket". Both of our burgers came out well done. When I told the waitress that they were well done, she said "well I put it on the ticket" and walked away. I tried to take another bite but it really was way overdone and for me it was not worth eating (my husband ate his and said even though it was way overcooked he was too hungry to not eat it). Next time the waitress came around my husband flagged her down and told her that my burger was much worse than his and I really couldn't eat it. She said she would take it off the check , but didn't ask if I would like anything else or have it re-made. Luckily I had ordered a side salad and ended up just having that and eating something else once I got home.

We've stopped many times at the Trails but this was our first stop to eat at Skol Tavern…read more Our server was friendly and our food came pretty promptly. They do offer breakfast and carry beer. We had omelets and they were well done. The hashbrowns could have been browned longer but I do like mine extra crispy. You definitely get some of the Viking atmosphere with the dark wood, high ceilings, and huge fireplace. We didn't try Ragnor's Grill tho, Food was reasonably priced. It's a solid stop when traveling between Minneapolis and Des Moines.

My review is based on 3 separate visits to & from Minnesota. My wife & I are both Scandinavian so of course we loved the Viking/Nordic theme with tall ceilings & a large Fireplace. We have ordered the Skol classic Breakfast/ Brisket Melt w Mac & Cheese & multiple times the Breakfast Tot - Chos ( Heaping plate of tots covered w Gravy, Cheese & Eggs ) Everything has always been very good & served quite quickly. My only complaint is that you have to go get your own refreshments & when done eating you have to go stand in line at the cash register to pay your bill. But other than that we very much enjoyed all 3 visits to the Skol Tavern & we will absolutely return again.

My step dad was very excited to go here, specifically just for their whiting fish. I saw that mac…read moreand cheese was on the menu, so I thought it would be a safe bet. Wait time wasn't long for the food, maybe 10 min. My Mac looked pretty, but was some of the less good Mac I've had. The noodles were undercooked, chicken was overcooked. Not very good portions. I wasn't too impressed with my mac at all. Would not get again. My mom hated the soup, it was way too thick, was more of a chowder type base. She only took a few bites of it. My step dad loved his sandwich though.

The sign is elegant and says Elly's which is actually a B&B. We had to look around and finally found a set of stairs right off the sidewalk that lead down to a cool little bar! I fell in love! The new owner is also the bartender- Amanda! She is so much fun! The beer is cold but the food is limited- frozen pizza and hotdogs but we were hungry and in a great mood. There is also a big patio with live music on the weekends. Why the rare 5 Stars? Because the owner is cool, the patrons cool and the place is quirky and like a speakeasy- hard to find but damn worth it!
