I sat at the bar, very kind and helpful bartender. It's very cozy but well kept. They had a few local/regional beers and all the typical ones as well. I got the Whitefish Cakes per the bartender's recommendation which were unique and very good! I also got the "Trifecta" sandwich. A little too much bread for my liking, but still worth it!

Pretty good food and chill atmosphere! If you order a bloody mary, you get a small beer with your order, which was much appreciated. Our guide from the Apostle Island Cruise recommended that we get white fish anywhere in town because it's always super fresh. My sister ordered the fish and chips and it did not disappoint!

Wow. I’m writing this review while stuffed full of delicious food, smooth beer, and great vibes! My wife (who I married just 11 days ago) and I spent the afternoon on Lake Superior kayaking on a tour led by Skylar, a polite and knowledgeable young gentleman. We saw this place prior to the tour and came back for dinner. Initially we were put on a waiting list for an hour and decided to get some card games from the car and wait by the park. On our way back from the car our buzzer went off. The window said their fish fry was in the top 10 in Wisconsin, so of course we had to try it. Even though
