Food was amazing and the pictures don't do justice to the portion sizes. Service is so nice and with a warm country smile! Ambiance is an out in the countryside off the highway restaurant and gift shop with a petting zoo. Complete with a few animals but especially a Peacock that loves showing off and spreading the trail feathers or coverts. Wonderful place homemade food, pies Jams, jellies and much more. Highly recommend. read more

What a fun place for breakfast or lunch. Delicious bakery options, pies, egg dishes, salads, soups, sandwiches. The store is also fun to browse & shop. It's definitely worth a stop when you're on highway 8. read more

Not at all what I expected when driving up. Driving along Hwy 8 and in need of lunch, decided to swing into Pure-N-Simple. It looks like a store and I assumed would only have snacks or, at the most, maybe some deli sandwiches. They have burgers, soup, desserts, way more than sandwiches. I was intrigued by the Patty Melt and some broccoli cheese soup. Both were very good. I wish I would have had more room or hsd the ability to transport one of the cold pies, as the Butterfinger Pie looked out of this world. I guess I'll just have to stop back again some time. They also have some gifts, like a general store. read more

We arrived Monday after a weekend at the lake. Arrived at 11:15. The place is cute, we were not sure how or where to order, but realized the counter was the place ! We ordered a Rueben and a sub. The food was excellent! Our only Complaint would be the wait time. It took at least 30 minutes to get our food. I would be sure to have extra time if we stopped again. read more

The place flat out delivers, they use high quality fresh ingredients and make flavorful dishes that will get you coming back. Service here is awesome and efficient! Once you are done ordering you can walk around the store and shop all the same fresh ingredients that are in the food or get a gift! The place is friendly and leaves you full and comfortable. Before you leave go say hi to the animals they have a neat variety of animals you can pay to feed, it's a dollar a cup! read more

The food was great. Had lunch with the family. The shop is cute. Be sure you go to the counter to order. You do not wait to be seated. Stopped back the next day to get doughnuts for friends. Will stop in again. read more

"I really don't think I need buns of steel. I'd be happy with buns of cinnamon." (Ellen DeGeneres) Pure-n-Simple is near my family's cabin, and with a crew that can run up to 20+ people, it's handy to have close access to kitchen staples like milk, specialty breads, Amish rolled butter, and tasty pies. Yes, pies are a staple!! Fruit pies! Snickers and Oreo pies! Pistachio! Cheesecakes! YOU get a pie! And YOU get a pie! EVERYONE gets a pie! When you've finished stuffing your pie hole, tame that sugar high with hearty sandwiches, grass-fed Angus burgers, soups, and salads from the restaurant. The breakfast cutoff is enforced at 11am, so arrive early to wakey, wakey with free-range eggs and bakey! Before you leave, grab some delicious donuts, cookies, muffins, or almond morning buns on the run, but don't share them with the furry and feathered friends in the petting zoo. There are $1 food cups for them instead. With so much to see and eat here, I'll keep it simple. It's a pure joy to visit this store--I give it 4.8 Turneresque shout-outs of, "Simply the best!" read more

Had a very good lunch here even though we weren't planning on eating here. We stopped out to see the store and noticed several people dining. Glad we did! My wife had the Reuben and loved it! Homemade thousand island!! read more

Superior Food and. customer service! We lived the fried cheese curds and so many pies to choose from.

Delicious homemade food. Stopped for lunch--- each had a different soup and both were wonderful. Also had a Rueben with fries and a chicken salad sandwich on whole wheat. Reasonable prices for high quality product. read more

Located near my family cabin, we never miss an opportunity to stop at Pure N Simple. More than a dining space, this spot has an outdoor petting zoo, interior store full of baking ingredients, a few clothes, a recently added baby section with onesies, toys, etc., cookie dough in the freezer to take-and-bake along with a smaller section of refrigerated items such as milk, cheese, and meats. The actual restaurant serves hot and fresh made to order meals at the check out counter. Once ordered, a server will bring the meal(s) to your table. Don't slip on the cookies! Any cookie with frosting is to DIE for - best cookies I have had and they have every selection of pie one could dream up. I couldn't say enough positive comments about Pure N Simple. I suggest stopping if you are in the area! read more

The Bakery is amazing. Great pies and baked goods from scratch. The restaurant food's also fantastic with high quality scratch made as well. For example the BBQ and buffalo sauces are scratch but more importantly delicious. Not a huge menu but I can count on what they do offer will be great. It's unusual I don't stop here when in the area. read more

I almost don't want to give Pure N Simple a great review, simply because I don't want to see the place overwhelmed with people. We stopped here on our return home from a recent outing and were very impressed with the food; less so with some of the service. We ordered cheese curds, an Italian sub sandwich, a bowl of Southwest Soup, and a slice of turtle cheesecake. It was all amazing. The curds were some of the freshest I've had in the state. They were spot-on! The sub was similar to what you'd get at Jersey Mike's - plenty of meat, red wine vinegar, and what appeared to be homemade bread. The soup was excellent, with some slight spice. The cheesecake was delicious - decadent and filling. There were many other baked goods that I wish I could have tried. Their morning rolls look amazing, as does their puff pastry and muffins. They have a variety of homemade pies that look tasty. We brought home a loaf of cranberry wild rice artisan bread. It was delicious as well. If you have children, they'll enjoy the petting zoo, which is located near the store during the summer months. There was the sweetest donkey with a baby donkey, some goats, and a pig. My only recommendation is that some of the younger staff could use some training in hospitality, looking at the customer, smiling, and treating the customer as if they are happy to be serving them. One young man who served us didn't seem to be enjoying his job or serving others. There was no "thank you" or appreciativeness in his service. That would be the only drawback. Otherwise, I'd highly recommend Pure N Simple. It was a pleasant surprise after many bad dining experiences elsewhere. They also have a large retail section where they sell bulk items (sugar, flour) and other items including meats, candy, tourist items, etc. read more

Cute retail and maker space in the front. Yummy cheese curds and a STACKED dessert fridge in the back. Goats and peacocks in the parking lot. A fun little stop for us! read more

We have eaten here before and this may be our last time. Wait staff was very confused and we had to ask for things they forgot with our order. We had a basket with condiments and silverware,( knives and mustard) and had to ask for ketchup and spoons and forks. Staff member brought this to us but put the blame on morning staff saying it was their job. We opted to eat outside and the dining experience was ruined by a couple smokers less than 20 feet from the front entrance. ( yes, this is a Wisconsin law). we brought this to staff's attention and it said that it was OK to smoke there. read more

We arrived at 3:30 pm and only one other couple was eating yet it was difficult for us to find a clean table. We didn't receive the water we asked for with our meal. The French Silk pie tasted old. It was not fluffy. The bathrooms were also dirty with garbage flowing on to the floor. I don't think we will stop again. read more

Amazing homemade food with a fun petting zoo for the kids! It's a must stop if you're in the Amery/Turtle Lake/St Croix Falls area! They also have a nice market with staples and some Fun finds. read more

Great. One of my favorite stops. Something for everyone to see, do, and eat. Friday fish fry and Sunday chicken dinner are my favorite. It's also tough to pass the bakery case. The almond morning buns are amazing! You have to get there early to get one, most days because they sell out so fast! read more

Cheese curds to die for. Everything fresh and homemade. So clean and an adorable shop.

This is not a safe place to eat for anyone looking to not expose themselves to Covid. Most of the servers and cooks do not wear masks. The servers are young and therefore in the highest risk group for new cases in the county. The Polk County public health department does not follow up on Covid complaints and the Polk County Sheriff department announced that they do not issue citations for Covid violations. Consumes Be Aware. The customers on the other hand were all wearing masks. Strange for a business to be so reckless. I really hope they change their ways. read more

Just moved nearby and stopped to check this place out. We were not disappointed. Don't skip the cheese curds (amazing!). We also tried various burgers and they were fresh/toppings were good too! Fresh, homemade soups and deserts for all! Donuts/cookies sooo good. You order at counter and servers bring it to you. There is a cute shop/store to browse while you wait. We'll be back. read more

Came up to Amery for a get away weekend and heard the pies here were amazing. That is an understatement - the foodgasim I just experienced was more than memorable. We bought 6 pieces of all different kinds and didn't even have one crumb leftover! Delicious!! We will be back...probably tomorrow, for more! read more

Wonderful breakfast! Great service and super cute gift shop. We enjoyed the fresh pastries, breakfast sandwich, biscuits and gravy, pancakes, eggs, and bacon! The petting zoo was a wonderful activity while the kids waited for food. Will definitely come back! read more

Good food and good people. Oh yeah, they have a great selection of organic products and other high quality food items, arts and crafts, and more. You can kill about 5 birds with one stone here, so to speak. read more

Pure N Simple - Really cool decor - New American Near Me - Amery, Wisconsin

What an awesome breakfast!! Was driving by and noticed their now serving breakfast, it was extremely impressive fare for a place in the country. The food has a great rustic feel with some urban flare. I had a bacon and apple scone dish that was a perfect fall dish. The food is contemporary and fresh and the service is first class. The store attached has a lot of organic "Whole Foods" type products and ingredients (with a little country twist). I'm delighted to finally have a good place near my cabin. This place doesn't hardly fit into the area it's in, in a very good way! read more

Pure N Simple - New American Near Me - Amery, Wisconsin

Stopped in for breakfast with some friends and am I glad we did. I tried the loaded scone and that was very good. I had the biscuits and gravy, it was the best I have ever had at a restaurant. I get this pretty much where ever I go, this had plenty of sausage in the gravy and tender and moist biscuits. I can't wait to get there again for it. One of my friends had the croissant sandwich and really enjoyed it, especially the croissant. The pies looked really good but I didn't save any room for deasert. It is more of a deli feel than a sit down restaurant. Try it, you won't be disappointed. read more

I live in the area and love pure and simple. They have both organic and locally grown/produced items, both of which I am in favor of. In addition to this, they have a fantastic café. If you get the chance, try the prime rib sandwich. It's delish! read more

The cutest store I have ever seen in the middle of nowhere. My daughter and I ate lunch and they had homemade chicken nuggets and delicious soup. We took home a homemade pumpkin pie and blueberry pie. read more

The morning buns were not what I hoped they would be, but still ok I suppose. The best ones I've ever had were in Denver and were super flaky. These were bready, kind of brioche-like. The stuffed bacon cheddar scone was pretty tasty. The honey was a bit too much; get it on the side for more control. It was a 3.5 star experience. Much better than Farm Table though. We came back for lunch and it was good, so much better than Farm Table. Get the dried beef melt. It was very tasty. We got the queen, but it could've used a little more meat, so we'd probably get the king next time. The fries were interesting; clearly fresh cut and fresh fried, but very potatoey. I tend to prefer thinner cut and crispy outside. The prime rib sandwich was essentially a French dip and the cheeseburger soup was fine. The fresh squeezed lemonade would've been very refreshing on a hot day. read more

This is a great place to buy baking stuff in bulk !!! They have things other places don't !! They also have a bakery & a restaurant !!!
