Solid place in Mankato walking distance from the Hilton…read more in a few sentences, my experience can be summed up by an $8 mojito, plenty of fried apps, selection of a very cheesy (with cheese curds on top!) burger choice, amid a huge menu of sandwiches and salads. Service was friendly for our almost 9pm dinner. It was nice the Olympics coverage was playing on the tv screens! Definitely reco if you're in the area!

A little messy but it was very good. My only issue was that it took way too long to get a couple of beers to start and no one had the presence of minds to think we might need silverware. Our server was ok, didn't see much of him. Quite a few tvs and sports memorabilia around. It was clean so you have to give it that. Worth a visit.

On our last visit, the special was a sausage, kale, curry, coconut (I think) soup and it was so delicious. We often have their soup specials and they are unique and delicious every time we go.

I really really like it here!…read more It's not very big. Our group of 5 had a reservation, and we were sat a high top which was a surprise but luckily nobody in our group minded. Our waiter was super friendly, but also slow. The truffle fries were delightful. The Goat Cheese balls were way too big with not nearly enough breading to cheese. Tasty, but hard to eat and really just giant orbs of cheese. Entrees were lovely, and well priced. The pesto pasta came with a HUGE piece of burrata which was delicious. Get the butter cake. Beignets were mid, but the cake was perfection.

Just lettuce and tomato's onions and some chips. No cheese no olives very blah for the price. My husband had a brisket sandwich and said it was good. The Long Island I order was very weak. So I didn't not order another. The look was a typical bar. For the prices and the food I will not go back to many great places in this town to go too.

Disappointing.... We really want to support them but…read morebreakfast here is just not an option due to (most recent visit): 1 kind of juice-a weak pulpless OJ, 1 kind of dark bread (wheat only), and the scrambled eggs were cooked to rubbery & our food arrived just warm (not even near hot.) It was NOT busy at all so that couldn't be the reason. :-( PS: if you order the biscuits and gravy your gravy is a simple flour/milk gravy with pepper-NO sausage whatsoever. (The waitress stated that people often complain about that when served, & yet ownership decides to still leave it that way!? Perhaps at least clarify on your menu.)

We came in to see the most diner looking diner you could get to. Open kitchen and all…read more Food was very good. We tried chicken fried steak, biscuits and gravy, eggs and hashbrowns. The pancakes were good, nothing special. They had a little cinnemon roll for 2.75 which were fantastic. The menu was a little confusing. Me not realizing eggs came with the biscuits and gravy. But the menu is very small and simple, which i can appreciate. They had a pepsi spicket which actually was shooting out cherry pepsi.. to me thats an upgrade but i could see some wanting the normal thing. Prices seem very fair, however be ready to add 4 dollars for hashbrowns. The reason i don't mind though, you get good servings. Did not feel cheated. The server was awesome and attentive to multiple request from our table. Downside- cash only or local check I would eat there again for sure

We stopped by on a Saturday as we were looking for a good family lunch spot and the other Yelp…read morereviews were good. The whole experience seemed flustered. The host originally seated us in a space that did not fit our party. Then he moved us to a center spot in a long, family-style table with people on either side of us. We had a five year old with us who was overly tired and very spunky and we had to try to keep her focused on us and not our neighboring patrons. Was really not the most appropriate seating for children but we didn't want to ask for yet another table. Soon after we sat down, we discovered that the parties on both sides of us were upset and looking for any employee so they could express their frustration. Seeing as we were all so close, we could hear them complain to others in their parties about the service. We learned shortly that we should have written up our losses early and moved on. We didn't. We ordered our beverages and immediately got water. The rest (2 soft drinks, an iced tea, and a milk) slowly trickled out one by one. The waiter apologized every single time he came to the table about how slow everything was from us being seated to getting our drinks to him coming to take our order. Once the food came out, he was apologizing again for how long that took. He wasn't wrong. As for the food, it was fine. Portions were average to smallish for the price. It wasn't as special as we had hoped it would be based on the descriptions. We each got something different and all said that we wouldn't order that item again. Not that it was bad. It just wasn't good. The best thing we had was the pretzel stick appetizer. That was pretty good but for the price, we wouldn't order it again. Nothing was super memorable except the decor which was super fun to look at. Oh and the very apologetic waiter. Our food came out hot. Turns out that was not true for the table to our left. The table to our right got the wrong food so half their group was done while the others were just starting. Apparently one of the cooks had called in. So, over all, I gave them an optimistic 3 stars. It was like a participation award with the assumption that if they were firing on all cylinders, it could have been much better. Personally, i wouldn't try them again but as the only Irish pub in the area, it could be a neat happy hour hang out. It just was not a family lunch spot.

A sign outside said the restaurant was open while construction was underway, but we saw no disarray…read moreinside. Maybe the work was going on in another room. We visited here mostly because their online menu, and their menu inside, said they serve Kilkenny, one of my husband's favorite beers and one that is rare to find. Unfortunately, we were informed right away that they no longer serve it, either, as the distributor was struggling to get it. Alas. That is the only complaint we have, though. Service was great, busy as the place was on a Saturday at lunchtime. I had a Magner's cider while my husband made do with Schells Octoberfest. The cheese curds were absolute artwork, some of the best we've had in ages. I had the beet and goat cheese salad. It was huge with very fresh ingredients, quite filling without an added protein. My husband had a burger and fries and really enjoyed them.

The vibe…read morewas minimalist but cozy, with adorable decor that made it feel trendy without trying too hard. The service was awesome too -- coffee refills on point! My mom and I shared the Classic Benedict and a blueberry pancake, and both were delicious. Small surprise: the blueberries came on top instead of baked inside the pancake, but honestly it still hit the spot My sister ordered the breakfast burrito and said it was solid, just not super memorable. My dad enjoyed the California Benedict though he wished he had ordered something with meat. Both the hash browns and sweet potato home fries were delicious. Overall the table was happy! Definitely a great brunch spot with good food, great service, and a relaxing atmosphere. Would come back!

Cute space ... lots of tables. The staff was very friendly…read more We had the smores pancakes with a side of bacon and the Monte Cristo with fruit. The three pancake stack is HUGE! They were fluffy. The bacon was a bit undercooked and missed a true smoked flavor. The Monte Cristo was flanked with two pieces of French toast. I was not really impressed as the bread fell apart quickly. The jam had a good flavor. I missed the berry jam and the deep fried batter from a traditional sandwich.

Today, however, we ordered a burger among other things and we were brought the incorrect burger. Our server came to our table and explained he brought the wrong burger. We had already cut and taken a bite of it and said it's okay we will just take what we were brought rather than waiting for a replacement. When we got the bill we were still charged for the burger we ordered even though we didn't receive it. When we asked our waiter, Griffin, why we were charged for it, his comment was "well it was cheaper than what you ate." When we asked to talk to the manager, Sawyer, her comment was "well you ate the burger didn't you?" They did not comp the burger and argued they didn't need too. Bummed we had this experience and will not return.
