Although the stay within familiar territory, they put their own spin on things that take them to the next level, such as their cream-cheese duck wontons. I've only ever sat at the bar and found the servers to be classic Minnesota nice. They're knowledgeable of their beers (which is an impressive selection for the area) and are always happy to share their knowledge of the area. This spot is definitely a stop when I'm in the area.

Honestly the company it's self need to give more money to personal and more people working. That's the problem with service not the people but the lack of money going to personal. From a new person being here. It's sad for the worker and sad there's entitled people who come here.

We also got a mushroom and Swiss burger with onion rings. Burger had no flavor at all with almost no mushrooms and cheese. Onion rings were undercooked. For dessert we got cheese cake. It taste like frozen milk in a bad way. It came with plastic still on the sides and frozen, it just crumbled when we tried to eat it. Over all I am not happy with how much I'm paying for the poor quality of food I'm getting. Service wasn't bad and our waiter was nice, but it's a very slow night, couldn't imagine how it would be on a busy night.

It's really nice inside, but even better was the super friendly service all around! They had the smoker outside and the special was the smoked brisket sandwich. And it was two for one beers, they even split the 'two for one' between us so we could each have just one more of our own beer choice, that was awesome. We started with nachos and agreed that they were one of the best plates of nachos that we've had in awhile. A full place of meaty and cheesy chips and plenty of toppings. Hubby had the smoked brisket sandwich and said the brisket was done very good. Our son had the Lumberjack Burger that he loved, he loves anything that has maple syrup on it! It was a big burger so he took half of it home and ate it later. I had the jalapeño popper burger, I wasn't sure if the name meant that it would have deep fried jalapeños on it and I'm so glad it didn't. My burger came out with a slice of pepper Jack cheese on it that was still cold except for the edges, but they took it back and warmed it up with a torch, actually to the point of burning the cheese, weird, but even so I loved this burger! It had slices of jalapeños and plenty of cream cheese, it was very good, (it actually didn't even need the pepper Jack cheese slice and not sure where that flavor fit in) then I asked for a side of the spicy berry sauce that they serve with the wonton appetizer and it was complete!! Highly recommend that they add this to the burger, or that you request it. Enjoy!

Our table did a mashup of everything - wings, burgers, pizza, and even a grilled cheese. Again - all simple, but all tasty. I'd call this place Perham's top wing/pizza place in town. I split the grilled cheese and then had the buffalo wings. The buffalo sauce was on point from a flavor a heat perspective. And the homemade ranch - heck yeah! Perfect combo! Well done 1894 - we will be back! (PS - we recommend getting some cool signage outside for us out-of-towners)

We were seated quickly and a waitress came over not like after we set down. Their menu is really big, so it took us a bit to finely narrow down our choices. Our food came out very fast. I went with the rib eye tacos with black beans and rice. Really good! Being from Texas I'm a bit snobbish when it comes to Mexican food, but these were better than expected. The old lady got a burger with sweet potato fries. There wasn't any food left on her plate, so I guess it was good! My friend got the pulled pork sandwich with Parmesan fries. He smoked it as well. Would recommended a stop here if you're looking for a quick bite for lunch and a cold beer.

When you consume wings, you're going to get dirty. There's no getting around messy fingers. Lily's…read morehas the answer for that. Wet wipes, right there at the table, in the napkin dispenser. It's little things like that that sets Lily's Wings, Burgers, and Things apart. They stand heads and shoulders above the competition. This small, local, independent eatery is located in a small strip mall adjacent to a gas station and Subway along Northway Drive not far from the YMCA, the Whitney Senior Center and soccer fields, and all of the medical offices located in the vicinity. Lily's serves large bone-in wings, boneless wings, drumsticks, country-style breaded chicken tenders, angus or bison burgers, fish sandwiches, commercial fries, handcut fresh french fries, onion rings, jalapeno poppers, cheese curds, and more. If you don't care for fries, they have homemade cole slaw. What's nice is that there's such a variety. Along with the wings, you can choose from various homemade sauces that range from fruity to spicy, depending upon what you like. I tried the teriyaki sauce with my boneless wing combo and really liked it. It has a kick at the end, but wasn't mouth-on-fire hot. The hand cut, fresh french fries are excellent - among the best I've had in the area. They were perfectly cooked served with homemade ranch dressing. I was given a generous portion of fries to go with my combo, which featured 11 boneless wings. You can sample the sauces before you decide on which one you want to go with your wings. The restaurant is kept clean, and the server/cashier was very helpful to this newbie customer. I've also had a hamburger here - the black and blue. It was done to order (medium well). The bun was soft and delicious, the hamburger was juicy and flavorful, and the toppings (red onion, lettuce and tomato) were fresh. My only complaint, and it's a small one, was that the previous customer had left some sauce residue on the table. There wasn't a lot, and I'm sure it's easy to do at a place like this - where the sauce is the boss - but they may want to check the tables more frequently to make sure they're wiped after each customer. On the downside, it's often the case that they are understaffed. Sometimes, this means that customers up front aren't getting attention because the person is in the back tending to cooking. There really should be more staff on duty or they're going to lose business. On the plus side, each meal is made fresh to order, so that sometimes means waiting a bit for your food. There are a couple of televisions here so you can watch the news or a game. Also, the Lily's food truck ensures that you can enjoy their food when you're out and about. The food truck is frequently seen in downtown St. Cloud, especially in warmer months. You can also order online, and they'll have the order ready for pickup when you get there. It's all these touches that make Lily's a restaurant worth visiting and revisiting. I still can't get over the wet wipes. Only a true wing place would have these, instead of dry napkins. It's touches like that that make Lily's a special place.

I missed the indoor photos as we were on the back patio with our pups. The back patio is picnic tables under a big tent with lots of great conversation and attention from the owner and locals. Indoors is small and a happening place. It's so unique. You won't want to miss stopping by if you are in the area. Food was great! My 14 year old boys both ordered the wings, one got parmesean and the other bbq... they finished them up and there were A LOT!!! The fries were perfect! Some of the best with the perfect outside crunch, no odd flavors from oils .. just perfect fries! I ordered the gluten free pizza and the crust was good. Thicker than many GF crusts I've tried but all good with the good amount of cheese and other toppings it was well balanced. I would never have thought to stop here if I was just driving through. It almost looks like another house on the block. So, don't pass it by if you are in the local area. Check out the live music on the weekends too!

My team tried a bunch of different things, and there was a solid mix to choose from everything from classic cookies and cake to ice cream and fruit. What stood out the most to me was the banana and chocolate shit. That was easily my favorite. The sweetness of the banana mixed with the rich chocolate just hit perfectly, and it was something I kept going back for. It wasn't too heavy either, which made it even better after a big meal. Overall, the desserts were fresh, flavorful, and a great way to finish everything off. Definitely a highlight of the buffet, especially if you've got a sweet tooth.
