Even for a late hour, the place was buzzing with a fabulous crowd, yet the service didn't skip a beat. A lovely server greeted me with the warmest smile, and I decided on the Half Soup and Loaded Mash. It arrived in a crisp ten minutes talk about efficiency! The flavors were wonderfully "homemade," evoking such a comforting, rustic charm. At around $10, the value is simply unbeatable for such a delightful experience. It was, quite frankly, the highlight of my evening. I shall certainly be returning soon!

Skal recently refreshed their menu and it was so tempting that we didn't make it past the "Light…read moreDelights" and "Crunchy Stuff." This secret spot is our go to whenever we cross paths with the Perham and Detroit Lakes area. Per usual, they had a fantastic selection on tap. The atmosphere is casual and the air conditioning is crisp and cool. Now about these new menu items... one thing to keep in mind about Skal standards is that they make everything in house. The cucumber topping, the marinated mozzarella, the mushroom Tartine, and the tomato dill relish are all made on location with love. That means the cucumbers are zesty, the mozzarella is unforgettable, the mushrooms are an umami festival and the tomato relish is a surprise party of flavor!! None of these are your ordinary "stuff on toast" small plates. Again, after tasting all of these, we didn't have room for entrées. So naturally, we went to the crunchy stuff menu and ordered the Minnesota Nachos. They make the potato chips in house daily. It would be easy for them to just buy potato chips, but no, that is not good enough for their patrons. Then, after they make these wonderful potato chips, they pile them up with cheese and goodness and offer them with a side of garlic dill dip (which will want to take a pint of it home with you and the good news is that you can because that is also on the menu.) If flavors and great beer aren't reason enough, come for the great service! The owners and staff here are so great and friendly and tentative to the needs of everyone who stop by. A couple of tips for an amazing visit... Do call ahead to make sure they are open and do come early because they get packed (and you don't want them to run out of those awesome potato chips before you get there.)

"He had white horses And ladies by the score…read moreAll dressed in satin And waiting by the door Ooh, what a lucky man, he was" (Emerson, Lake, and Palmer) Lucky's 13 Pub is a large pub with a prominent U-shaped bar and plenty of table and chair and booth seating. The menu has the usual pub fare - wings, burgers, salads, and sandwiches. But on Saturdays and Sundays from 9-1, the menu expands to things like omelets, hash, Benedicts and breakfast sandwiches. So, when our Friday night hotel bartender recommended Lucky's for breakfast, well, we knew where we'd be headed. The breakfast service we encountered on Saturday was extraordinary, so hats off to our server Beth. Our party of ten walked in when breakfast opened, and she quickly set up a few long tables for our group. Oh, and she set out two coloring activities and crayons for the two young guests in our group. Our breakfast started with complimentary bowls of popcorn and we saw some very interesting eye openers on the menu, like a Breakfast Punch (with Rum, orange and pineapple juice, strawberry purée, and ginger ale), a Lucky's Blueberry Pancake Shooter (with Stoli Blueberry vodka, Butterscotch, Orange Bacardi, and a slice of bacon) and a Keoki Coffee (with Kahlua, Baileys Irish Cream, coffee and whipped cream). We passed on these alcoholic temptations; Beth took our orders flawlessly and the food started rolling out of the kitchen in no time. We started off with a order of Beignets for the table ($9.99) - "Deep-fried beignets made with croissant dough, topped with powdered sugar & a side of strawberry jam. I tried one and it was very good -piping hot, light as a feather, but surprisingly not greasy. My wife ordered a Ham and Cheese Omelet ($13.99 served with her choice of toast and a side of fresh fruit, home fries or cheesy baked hash browns. It was a generous portion and the fruit cup she ordered was fresh and tasty. My Cajun Hash ($15.49 with Andouille disks, shredded chicken, two big shrimp, peppers, onions, cheesy hash, & scrambled eggs) was one of the best breakfasts I've had all year. It was a gigantic portion, and I was more than full with half of it. Beth was automatic with the coffee refills, was very sweet dealing with the two children in our party and gladly gave our couples separate checks. One very cool thing we saw was a "Treasure chest" full of children's toys, coloring books, and activities as freebies for the little darlings that visit. These weren't junky dollar store toys, but some nice stuff. We could not have been happier with our breakfast at Lucky's 13.

First Visit to Osakis Pub - Mixed Experience…read more This was our first time visiting the Osakis Pub, and we happened to come on Wing Night. The atmosphere was lively--perhaps a bit too lively for our taste--with many tables of 6 to 8 people and a very open layout, making it quite noisy. Our server was polite and very attentive, which we appreciated. We decided to try the pizza but were disappointed. The crust was rubbery and tough--too chewy for our liking. The sauce, pepperoni, and sausage were fine but unremarkable. Overall, it reminded us more of a store-bought frozen pizza than something made fresh in-house. That said, the menu is extensive, and we're willing to give Osakis Pub another try--just not for the pizza. We're looking forward to exploring other options next time.

During a recent summer visit, I enjoyed a berry spicy Margarita. I tend to avoid fruit margaritas because they are often too sweet, but this one balanced the fruit and spice well. I would definitely order again. Even though I was the only patron on the patio, the staff was very attentive - refilling water as needed and checking in an appropriate amount. I would recommend this place anytime you're traveling near or through Perham. In fact if only it were in my neighborhood, I'd visit much more often.

When we got there, it wasn't clear where a hosted stand was so we walked up to the bar to ask and were told seat yourselves.

Both came out quickly, my husband got a HUGE hot dog that he devoured. I got the mile high sandwich with wild rice soup. The sandwich was decent but the side of honey mustard with it was kinda odd. Glad it was on the side so I just left it alone. The wild rice soup was good, but could've been hotter. Once we were done, we asked for a box and again waited and waited for the box and check. Cool venue by the lake but if we go back, hopefully a different server is around.
