Good place for a game on a Saturday afternoon! I called ahead to be sure MLB was on. The friendliest waitress greeted us & was very attentive. We started with a beer & a soda. Hubby couldn't decide & she had a great suggestion. Our jalapeño cheese curds were yum. Not too hot. We followed up with sandwiches: hubby's French dip was one of the best he's had in a while. Unfortunately my Cuban wasn't very good. Pulled pork had a reheat taste. I had asked for it to be served on rye, but evidently the cook didn't see the note? The hoagie it was on was pretty smashed & not so good. So I ate the ham & cheese and was satisfied. It's a little bit divvy- - the inside will surprise you. People were friendly and it was a good place to watch the game. Is it cheap? No everything is $13 or $14 up. read more

In my opinion. Food got a little better. But the new ownership got way worse. They don't know what the heck they are doing trying to run this place. The disrespect I have felt from the new ownership has made me never come to this place again until someone else runs it. They could easily have been sued for false advertisement. But they didn't care. My experience with the new ownership came off to me as how they can make money over how can I make your experience joyful. I will never be going back. Hope the new ownership fails. read more

We go here as often as possible for breakfast and sometimes dinner. Great food, and the ladies waiting on tables are without exception the friendliest I have experienced anywhere. Definitely recommend. read more

Stopped here on our way back home from Duluth. It was a cute spot where the food was priced fairly, the servers always had a smile, and the food was pretty damn good. The menu selection was great, really wished my husband got to try the MASSIVE Bloody Mary that's boasted about in the other reviews. The thing looks like a whole meal so he opted for a sandwich, I got the broasted chicken which was amazing, very juicy and the right amount of crunch, the mashed potatoes they served on the side were definitely instant but I still ate them up, my son got the cream cheese and jalapeño burger, he had no complaints. Definitely going to make a tradition out of stopping here to eat on our bi yearly trip to Duluth for new years. read more

We thought the corner bar would have good burgers, but we were wrong. Very disappointed in the small, gray-looking, over-priced burgers. Will never go back. For 3 of us it was an $80 dollar bill. My boyfriend wanted to go there, I wanted to go to Culvers. He said Culvers over-priced. I said, Culvers burger meat is always fresh, not frozen. Would have been a much better choice! Go to Culvers for food! Kelly's if you want an expensive bottle of beer. read more

The food was very good. Reuben Sammie for the hubby. He reports that it was very good. The bartenders were friendly. I would not classify this as a dive bar. It used to be divey the last time we were here, but no more. *sigh* read more

We've been to Kelly's corner a few times and you would think with their prices they would have good food we had the fettuccine it wasn't even hot and it was tasteless somebody else's table had fries they were not hot and soggy my daughter had nachos and there was just a little bit of cheese on top and very little meat and the rest was chips my mom had all you can eat fish and the fish was good but the potato wasn't even cooked it was raw inside the service was good but I would never go back to that place read more

It is a dive bar and the good is ALL frozen fried foods , but with the lack of good customer service it's a real dump.

Rachel was amazingly quick and attentive among all the Vikings' fans. And the colossal Bloody Mary was a full meal deal!! read more

A great small town dive bar with exceptional food, great prices, and nice people with great service.

Stopped Sunday evening, waited 15 minutes, one waitress on staff a lot of people in the kitchen but no boasted chicken. When to Tavern on Main great broasted chicken! read more

Excellent place to watch a game. Friendly servers and bartenders. Great neighborhood spot!

Ordered fish and chips for takeout. The order was ready promptly but pickup was a bit chaotic as it was Friday night during happy hour and all the servers and bar personnel were really busy, The portions were very generous for both the fish and the chips and the fish was flavorful and not overly battered. My main complaint was that the takeout containers were plastic and thus the food couldn't be rewarmed in the oven. Microwave makes the chips soggy which these were by the time I got them home. Styrofoam is equally bad for the environment but at least it could have been put in the oven to reheat. Price was fairly reasonable for the size of the portions. read more

Always a great time! Cheap beers, local atmosphere & occasionally an old JOCK shows up!

Great bar food, friendly service and a fun place! Also, reasonably priced drinks!!!!

Great dive bar with great bar food! Burgers are great and there is always something going on.

Love the low key fun atmosphere and the prices are affordable. The owners are local and they are friendly

A fun dive bar to grab a drink and decent bar food. Ordered the sweet chili wings and they were very good! The celery was... slimy and had a strange taste/texture. Not sure if it had been accidentally frozen or just not stored correctly but it was pretty off putting. The rest of the food is very average. Nothing very special about it honestly. We attended an event there where a Young Living consultant offered a class to create three succulent plants along with essential oils. It was REALLY well done and a lot of fun! We did hear afterwards that the poor server had no clue that the party she was assigned to was going to be 25 people on separate tabs. I've been a server and I couldn't imagine just walking into a Wednesday evening to that surprise. Speaks volumes to the management and opportunities. She did very well considering but it was clear that they hadn't prepared the staff for our event. Disappointing to say the least. read more

Drinks poured well. Overcooked burger. This has been our go to place for a delicious local burger. In the past the wait staff has been less than friendly but the food is delicious and the drinks are generously poured. The last year or so waitress attitudes have improved but the food has been consistently overcooked. Asked for a medium cowboy burger and it came well done, chard to a crisp on one side. In the picture you can clearly see there is no pink whatsoever on the burger read more

Kelly's Korner - Overcooked! - New American Near Me - Hugo, Minnesota

Bartender, Jason definitely had a negative attitude.... did an ok job, but it wasn't a good experience!! I got a wrap to go, in the fridge now, I'll update after I eat, but wasn't a good experience.... He treated the waitresses poorly too.... I tipped well, but probably shouldn't have! Probably won't go back! Wrap was mediocre..... Made the mistake of going back, Lol! Ordered a Ruben.... Pulled.....wtf?, over cooked, tasteless krout, lack of thousand island, mystery cheese.... salty as hell.... Total waste of money! Lived, and learned. read more

A review Haiku: For good fish n' chips Cheap drinks and friendly service See Bri at Kelly's read more

The bartender was rude to my daughter, didn't wanna give her a water and gave us a dirty look

I had breakfast there one time and my eggs were not cooked all the way and my bacon was cold also my bread wasn't good. The fries were good but vary salty. Also it is a small and tight place. I wouldn't go there again. read more

Live 5 minutes away and finally went to Kelly's after 5 years. Really good old fashioned bar food. Broasted chicken was amazing. Sides were average. Really good service! Great place to watch games, play bingo and enjoy an evening after work. read more

We have been to Kelly's multiple time. The burgers and appetizers are delicious, well proportioned and the service is always prompt and friendly. It's a good place to stop by for a burger and beer. read more

Great easy place to get a burger and a beer with the wife and kids before a movie at Emagine theater in White Bear Township. Lots of space and quick service. read more

Great local hang out. Food was very good. Atmosphere was very casual. As an outsider, never felt uncomfortable with an all "regular" crowd. I would be there once a week if I lived near. Wow, is beer the main hobby in Minnesota. Can those people drink! We had a great time. read more

We have gone here a handful of times and unfortunately will not return. There is a male bartender, I think his name is Jason? Who is very rude not just to us, but I've noticed he is to other customers as well. It's embarrassing the way he treats people. If you are going here for food then it's fine just avoid this place like the plague if you are going to have an evening out to enjoy a couple cocktails. read more

We live nearby and stop in at least once a week - sometimes with our kids, sometimes without. Simple menu (love the fish fry and great burgers and fries!), truly friendly people, comfortable atmosphere. The kids love the meat raffle too! read more

Wouldn't return an order of wings or even consider a refund after my server neglected to ask if I wanted boneless or bone-in

Had to leave before even ordering. This is a neighborhood bar. I get it. They were busier than expected. I get it. But be upfront with your customers and let me know that it's going to be at least 45-50 minutes to get a burger. Don't give us menus, let us order drinks, wait 20 minutes to get them, then tell us "oh, by the way, it's like a half-hour or so to get any food right now." read more

The bartender was one of the funniest and wittiest I've ever encountered. Laughed so hard I cried. He took shit from everyone and gave it back ten fold. I recommend this place to anyone and everyone. read more

Typically hit the Korner 2 times a week for dinner and drinks. Great service and atmosphere. New menu gives a solid selection and you can't beat meat raffle and pull tabs. read more

Good solid bar food. Service is good and prices are reasonable too.

We went here for our first time- its a little hole in the wall bar, could use some updating, the service was a little scattered... but the food is what surprised us-- the burgers were GREAT and prepared exactly how we wanted them! read more
