We ordered a couple of burgers…read morealong with a beer and a cocktail, and it absolutely hit the spot after hiking around a nearby state park. We were starving, and the food did not disappoint. Everything about the burger was delicious. The bun was soft with a perfectly crispy underside, and the whole thing had a melt in your mouth bite that was so satisfying. You can really tell care goes into the food. The service was friendly and welcoming, and it was not too busy since we came at an off hour in a Saturday, which made for a relaxed experience. Slightly elevated ambiance, but still cozy with the warm brick walls. Street parking was easy as well. Overall, a fantastic meal and a place we would happily return to next time we are in Northfield.

Our server was friendly and prompt. The food also came out fast! It was nothing fancy, but was very hardy, especially for the price. Most of our group ordered various handhelds, and one person ordered pasta.

We got a cinnamon roll and a pecan roll for the table to share (which was perfect as they are HUGE) as well as some fruit. Everyone loved their entrees. I stuck with the pretty standard breakfast (eggs toast etc), but there was a lot of variety ordered. It's a very nice space and very popular, but the tables are nicely spread out and they don't hurry you out. I'm a bit embarrassed we have not been before (our kid is a second year) but will definitely be back. Daughter has also been for dinner and she says that was great too.

Phenomenal prices and good food. Even just a simple side salad had fresher lettuce and more cheese than a regular bar. It's definitely a dive. The women's restrooms were tiny but clean- my partner commented that the men's room was kind of gross so a potential heads up (I'm not docking a star because it's a dive and I didn't personally see it). They seem to usually give you plastic silverware, but they have metal utensils upon request. The patio space was beautiful, tho we are AC people. Was absolutely worth the small detour off of I-35.

Both were good - service was slow and the staff was grumpy. They had just gotten over the 12 noon lunch rush and it must have taken a toll on them. They kept fighting about who was going to slice more provolone cheese for our sandwiches. (Not something that I was to know about while I"m trying to order - plus 90% of the sandwiches have provolone cheese on them!) It was a cute spot and seemed like a good place for the college kids to study in the afternoons. Decorations were cozy and made you want to stay a while. I would go back and hope that everyone was a bit happier.
