The whole beets were something I usually don't see in a beet salad but it meant I got lots of beats. Dressing was served on the side and was a nice compliment.

We sat in the bar area and our server immediately greeted us and brought water. I didn't catch her name but she was excellent, continuously checking on us throughout our meal. Our server went over the menu and we went with her recommendation of Lucy Burgers and Tater Tots since this is their specialty. We didn't try the beer since we had a long haul ahead of us. I chose the Pickle Lucy and my husband chose the classic. He added lettuce and tomato and I added tomato. Both burgers were big, gooey, delicious and cooked perfectly. The tater tots were huge stuffed with cheese and bacon but not crispy like traditional Tator tots. This was a bit of a bummer but they were flavorful. I'm glad we stopped in and tried Crooked pint Ale House.

I'm a local so I've been visiting Boxers for years now. Breakfast, dinner and occasionally drinks…read more A few weeks ago I went out and had drinks at 10,000 Drops and then I walked over to Boxers where I had 3 drinks and they charged my cc three times. By the third time, I was a bit ticked off because each time, the bartender was very familiar with me as a local. But instead of apologizing, Jo called the bouncer over who walked me out peacefully. This last weekend I had dinner there and on my way out, I stopped by Jo at the bar handed her a $20 and said, "I know I was upset and I don't want her to think I was mad and I didn't want her to to be mad at me". She graciously took the 20 and agreed. My cousin and I went to 10,000 drops, had a few and walked back to Boxers where I was stopped by their check point and another bartender Hailey told them I couldn't come in. I motioned the bouncer over and asked him if I caused him any trouble the last time I was here and he said no. Now, I could see if I was belligerent and had no reason to be mad and while I was being kicked out I caused a scene and acted harshly why they would ban me. But I had a reason to be ticked off, but I wasn't over the top and as the bouncer came over I peacefully walked out. I think it's pretty sad that A. You don't seem to care about paying customers and B. You serve alcohol and don't seem to have even the slightest of tolerance that you would expect from such a notoriously violent bar. So, I won't be returning... you win.

It is a cute hole-in-the-wall-ish kind of bar that has been kept in great condition. We liked looking around at all the pictures and autographs on the walls. We happened to catch a brand new waitress on her second day on the job. She did admirably. The pizza had a nice thin crust and was cut into little squares that were bite-sized for me. The sauce has a kick, and there was a good amount of sauce on it. We got a large bacon, mushroom and black olive pizza, and our only critique was that we couldn't really tell that there were mushrooms on it. We found a couple little chopped up pieces, but not much...you would never know there were any just by looking at it. Anyway, nice place, friendly staff, and reasonable prices!

The restaurant is in a "travel plaza" that has seen better days. There weren't many customers. It is a big, high ceilinged space that back in the day must have been filled with truckers, families and those endless cups a Joe counter guys. Despite the "really, you want to eat here?"

I had ordered a burger and something went wrong with the computer and it was delayed. I hardly noticed when the bartender realized there was an error and immediately took care to get the order completed. I had no complaints but when the owners found out about the delay the were concerned enough to insist on a complimentary drink. I've been back two more times and each time the food has been excellent. Oh by the way, being from Indiana I'm rather particular about my biscuits and gravy but now I believe you can find me at Bashers each Saturday Morning indulging in the owners wonderful rendition of this classic midwestern delight.

It's out of town but Google maps worked perfectly. It seems the restaurant portion of the clubhouse is the entire main floor. The view out over the course was very nice. I was told the menu was slimmed down because the chef was recovering from surgery. I had a bacon cheeseburger and cheese curds. It was much better than the typical burger. There was something in the hand made patty that will bring me back again. The cheese curds were excellent also. I enjoyed the remote location. My food was very good. The woman working there was very friendly and helpful. I think I even saw a small herd of goats in the distance. If I'd been able to order from the regular menu, I'd probably have given it 5 stars.

There were tables on the deck, so I assume outdoor dining is an option. It's nice but small. I'm sure it's quite busy for lunch and dinner during the summer season. I was there for lunch on a weekday in mid-April. The menu Is modest but seemed to have a little of everything: a few burgers, several sandwiches, pasta, steak, etc. I had the prime rib French dip with cheese curds and a cup of creamy chicken soup. The soup was fine but nothing special. The cheese curds were a little too salty but very good. Very similar to what you get from vendor stands at a county fair. My sandwich was a typical French dip, good but not memorable. The au jus was lacking flavor. It's a nice little place if you feel like getting out off the beaten path and enjoying a lake view with your meal. The prices seemed slightly high since the burgers and sandwiches only come with chips. I believe it cost $2 to upgrade to fries, tots, cheese curds, or cup of soup. The service was excellent. She was very friendly. I felt like a was treated as a friend rather than a customer. No doubt I'm sure because of the repeat business they must get from the people staying at the resort.
