Totem Pole Inn - Burger with fries

Totem Pole Inn

(15 reviews)

We have a weekend home close to this bar and have tried it at least 3 times. We always feel so…read moreuncomfortable there. I don't know if it is the owner, manager or cook but the man that cooks the food is so miserable! (The cooking is done behind the bar - hide him in the back) It's hard to have a good time when the man behind the bar looks like he just wants you to shut up and leave immediately. The bartenders are always so nice - but even they look terrified of him. Odd place for sure! The food is ok, not bad but not great. Patio looks very nice, but we have never been there when it's open. Unfortunately, I think we have given up on this one.

My friend and I are on a boys extended weekend vacation, and after a couple of hours axe throwing…read more(see my review) decided it'd be fun to check out a local bar for some appetizers and drinks. Totem Pole Inn definitely fit the bill. About 2:30 on a Saturday afternoon and the place was surprisingly full with a semi-older crowd all being loud and boisterous having a good time. It appeared to be a husband and wife team running the show with the Mrs. on the bar and getting the tables with the husband hitting the flattop grill right next to the bar. The menu is sparse but has enough choices of about seven or eight appetizers like beer batter pickles, fried mushrooms, mozzarella sticks, and the like. They didn't have the pickles I wanted, so I went with six BBQ wings which came with ranch. My friend had the mozzarella sticks and a cup of lobster bisque. My wings were excellent with breading and well crisped in the fryer. The mozzarella sticks were fine and the lobster bisque also was just ok but not bad. My friend also got a Makers Mark on the rocks which hit the spot. The facility appears to have been just recently renovated and was very clean. Service was attentive and friendly. I'm sure this is a place where locals love to come. The entrees seems to be burgers and people liked them that I could tell. $26 not including tip for an appetizer, cup of bisque, drink, and entree of six wings. You'll like the Totem Pole Inn! Oh, they also have a single pool table, digital juke box, and some electronic gaming machines.

I found this place on a country drive that turned into a food quest. After pulling over I got the…read morewiff of BBQ and walked around back. It was summertime and the the bar outside was open. I was greeted by a friendly bartender and quickly served a cold beverage. I looked around the bar at all the yummy bbq. The smells and the happy faces got me hooked so I order the ribs 1/2 rack. Wow they were juicy and tender and just the right amount of smoke, No regrets here!! I had a few cold beverages and finished up my ribs. Had some great conversations with the patrons around me and really felt at home. I'll definitely be back here!!!

No kidding - about the best burger I have had!! I originally thought they were standard frozen…read morepatties and I was hungry and ordered a double. Holy Smokes - when they came this was HUGE! Couldn't fit in my mouth. I ordered rare and it came rare BUT without drippy blood. It was cooked absolutely perfect for my palate. Super delicious, excellent excellent service - friendly and attentive. The waitress told us the meat is freshly prepared from the restaurant and I can really attest to that! I am a real burger aficionado having traveled all around the country sampling great eats and the Outposts nails it 100%. There was live music here on the Friday night with a loaded and lively crowd, we bumped into this place coming back from an ATV ride. This being on the main drag on Rt. 97 but for us in the absolute middle of nowhere. Other than going rafting or a drive up Hawks Nest this is NOW our monthly destination to get to die for burgers.

Chicken sandwich good. Layout is nice plenty of bar seating and some tables. Worth the stop for a simple pub level of expectations. Enjoy.

So I moved into the area in May and since I have been going to smoking bars since sixteen My only…read morereally pleasant experience is silver lakes because you can still exercise your inalienable Rights to be able to smoke and drink at the same place inside. Having said that I absolutely love This bar and it's staff of typically consists of the bartender or bartenders and possibly a bar back. The professionalism is a pleasure to watch and it's only the second bar I remember being in that actually mulls the fruits of a Manhatten. Food has always been excellent though for some reason they won't do their mussels to go. I have noticed that on certain nights the bar staff has had multiple people in and people coming in to order food and being told that the bar was closing early and the kitchen was already closed. I was having a nice conversation with the couple next to me and there were at least fifteen other people that were having a good time. Yet somehow we All had to leave early on a day that their closest other bar is closed on Monday so that leaves only two bars in reasonable driving distance from all of the Lord's valley and dingmans ferry areas to get food and drinks from. All I have to say is that whoever is th e two people who bartend during those days are more like the girl from Willy Wonka that the squirrels sent down the shoot.

Log Tavern is currently our favorite place in the Poconos (after the Dairy Twist of course). Three…read moreof us came here for drinks and pop-up pizza on early Saturday evening and had such a great time. AND the food and drink is delicious?? We have found ourselves a Milford unicorn! The taproom inside feels cozy, and the two young women working were super sweet about getting us samples and drinks. Get the Endless Summer! It's a light, refreshing beer with the perfect hints of cucumber and watermelon and it is absolute heaven on a hot day. The lime lager was also excellent. We took our drinks and went out to the patio area under the tent where they were doing the pizza vending. There was a nice vibe in the air: a mix of folks and ages, but everyone just chilling and having a fun time. Bugs weren't too bad! The outdoor pizza set up is John's of Arthur Ave, which we have always had as to-go, but wow, they are bringing their A-game here with the outdoor ovens! The pizzas are INSANELY GOOD! Like, Razza-style impressive. We were seriously blown away because it's nothing like what we've had in the past from there. We ordered their white pie with ricotta and the "Bronx Bomber." DAMN. Perfect char and chew on the dough, and while we know that the ricotta on the first pie wasn't homemade, it practically tasted it. The BB pizza was outrageously delicious as well: loved the meat and banana peppers with the hot honey, which we're normally not a fan of, but it was perfect here. Cannot say enough good things about the pizza! Overall, a wonderful visit despite a heated conversation about world events at our table! Four very happy stars and we hope to have just as good of a visit next time, which will hopefully be soon.

Solid beers; good variety,, chill place, nice outdoorsy vibes with plenty of outdoor seating.read more
