The food was amazing, super affordable and the people were so friendly. It is 3 hrs from home but I think I might have to make it back sooner than later. Can stop thinking about that place. Had the patty melt with fry's and the wife had the omelette. Sat at the front counter with all the photos of the past.

It was a bit pricier than I imagined it would be, but the portions are sizable so you definitely get what you pay for. My sister got the Turkey Club and loved it. My nephew got the black and blue burger and that thing was massive. I got the Rueben which had a lot of meat but next time I'll ask for more sauce as it did not have much. The atmosphere was wonderful. I'd definitely go back here again if I'm on vacation near by.

Food was OK, but they directed us to the Stuffed Hash Brown and I have to be honest, it just was not very good. Just everything kind of thrown inside a big hash brown.

Ate at the counter due to how busy it was on a late Friday morning, where we were able to admire the stuffed hash browns the countermate couple shared. They were locals and said this was the place to be for breakfast. We wanted to try one of their fresh rolls, but arrived too late, they were all gone (they were only $1.50). The pancake & French toast were filling & hit the spot. Would go back again & share the stuffed hash browns for the experience.

Excellent burgers & pizza - 4 stars!…read more FYI, it's called "Riley's Cannibal Junction", NOT "Riley's Fine Food & Drink". Don't judge a book by its cover. That's the first thing I have to say about this hole-in-the-wall bar & restaurant. When you find them, it feels like the middle of nowhere because there are no houses, cabins, or other businesses in sight. This is a totally casual, no-frills place with a hunting and fishing cabin type of vibe. Come as you are. Are you still wearing your hunting camo or your snowmobile suit? No problem. The burgers, pizzas, and soups are very good. The all-beef patties are the real deal. No soybean additives here. The owner makes an extra effort to get a higher grade ground beef. You can definitely taste the difference. The staff is very friendly and unpretentious. And the prices are remarkably reasonable (see photo). If you're interested in the history, they have a summary on the back of the menu and on the Facebook page. It all goes back to the 1950s and an eccentric husband & wife named Chester & Violet Guiles. The local kids started calling Chester "Cannibal Guiles". Once a week they'd go to Deer River to buy groceries in a horse drawn buckboard. One final note: I read a silly previous review accusing this place of being "disgustingly racist". I saw no evidence of racism whatsoever. In fact, there was a Native American gentleman cooking on the day I visited. I complimented him on the burgers and we had a nice chat. He's a nice dude. I don't know what kind of personal beef was going on at some point in the past, but this review is pretty bad...the worst type of ignorant, woke, race baiting & trolling with no evidence at all. Don't like 'em? Don't go there. This stupid review should really be removed or sidelined by Yelp. Anyway, enough time wasted on that topic... Stop by if you're in the area. Grab a brew and some grub. Thumbs up! -Maxx

Table for 7 is a farm to table restaurant and all the ingredients were fresh. Started off with the Beet and Blueberry salad, must try. Winner of the entrees was the Lamb Chops so amazing, cooked perfectly and paired with roasted potatoes. The Duck L'orange & Blueberry burger were also really amazing. We also tried the Caprese and the tomatoes were fresh and for dessert we had a variety of homemade ice creams made with local berries: Strawberry & Blueberry was the cherry on top for this amazing restaurant. I hope to go back to Bemidji one day just to eat here again. I miss you already Table for 7. Shoot out to the staff, everyone was super friendly and welcoming!

They serve quite a few of what I call a fisherman's breakfast. Just filling and delicious. All the servers and owners enjoy talking to the locals and the fishermen that come in. Very efficient and polite servers. A really nice small town atmosphere. I was impressed at how clean and tidy everything was and so many cute antiques on the walls and shelf. Oh and the ice cream is just wow! You won't be able to finish it! Lol Weather you're just passing through or stopping over to do a little fishing you just have to give the Pine Cone a try. Very reasonably priced with good hearty menu items. A very enjoyable experience.
