The place looks cute inside. I saw a lot of food that probably was good but I decided to have their specialty, the pasty. I've had them at many places and have enjoyed them. This is by far the worst one I've ever had in my life. Everything about it was bad. I would give this place another try but I'd never order that again. And I hope I would never see that woman again. Other people in the place were nice and the other food did look good. And as I said, It's a cute place, old fashioned.

Checked out this local brewery in Lena of course. It certainly is one of the highlights around…read morehere. Lena Brewing Company has beers but also food to fatten people up. A pretty busy place with locals and people from other areas. There's about what's expected on the menu it seems. Before even coming in there's a smell of barbecue. It's got a pretty full menu. There's a bar in the middle surrounded by plenty of tables. Beers are the main thing of course. It's about $7 a pint. Best one we had of these was the Coldstream Lager. This is a full bodied Bavarian style. A lot of the food is meaty. Brisket and that kind of stuff. Among the appetizers is the Cowboy Caviar. One of the few vegetarian options. This is a mixture of beans, cilantro, corn, jalapeños, red onions, and tomatoes. It's about $16 for the Tex-Mex Bowl. This has avocado, cilantro rice, Cowboy Caviar, marinated cucumbers, pico de gallo, and Thai sauce. Of course an option is to get it with meats added. There's plenty more things including burgers and pork belly tacos among the livestock based foods. For around here it's one of the better places for big crowds. It's got beers and barbecue along with some healthier options. They're closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

Met Jr here for lunch. The restaurant was rated high on here so expectations were high going in…read more The menu has lots of choices. They also had a taco special today. After talking to our wonderful waitress and telling her it's our first time here, she suggested to us the Ribeye Philly Sandwich and the Aloha Burger and the Cheese Curds for an appetizer. After looking at the menu for a few minutes, I chose the Ribeye Philly Sandwich and Jr chose the Junction burger. We both subbed fries for the chips and also ordered a 1/2 order of onion rings and the Cheese Curds. The Cheese Curds were amazing. I've never had such great tasting cheese curds before. The onion rings were cooked perfectly. Both our sandwiches were outstanding. We both said "were coming back here again". Gotta try more stuff here! Thank you!

I gave the waitress $100.00 (5 twenties) on a $69.00 dollar check and requested change for the tip. Unfortunately she returned with $11.00 and some small change and when i pointed out she was 20 short she seemed confused and went back to the bar to check. After another short exchange between me and her she went again to the bar and returned with my 20 so I'm okay. I just hope she didn't get stiffed by the guy behind the bar who rang up the bill and they figured out the mistake. P.S. She ended up with the 20 cause i still didn't have change for the tip.

Some great toys and trinkets for kids as well. Please stop by for your sake. You will love it.

The young lady who helped us check out was super nice and helpful. I got an iced latte with strawberry mocha flavor. It's reasonably priced and all of the food looked amazing and I wish I would've gotten something.

Didn't seem too busy on a Sunday morning. I would recommend coming here.
