Barrel Lodge Bar & Grill

This was our first visit to this rustic lodge bar/restaurant on the golf course. We were very pleased.The atmosphere was great, our server Adam made our dining experience pleasantly memorable. Our chicken entree's were delicious and tasty. The outside patio was beautiful (it was starting to rain) we ate inside. We will definitely dine here again.We will definitely golf here too!

What a gorgeous lodge! This place really feels like a warm rustic cabin in the mountains, especially when they've decked the halls for the holidays. The wood and stone work is amazing to soak in and enjoy. Of course, no lodge would be authentic without a nice big fireplace and warm flame. We came at an odd hour (3pm), during the off-season for the golf course (Dec), and a dreary rainy day to boot. So, understandably, the place was dead less a couple of regulars at the bar. This did not dampen the spirit of the wait staff. We ordered the walleye dinner and a bowl of Mac-n-cheese for the little one. Finding walleye at a restaurant is a bit of a challenge. Finding GOOD walleye is a real win. The Barrell Lodge certainly has it. Not just the entrees either. The sides were just as savory as the main dish. The Mac-n-cheese tasted made from scratch, super smooth, creamy and a light cheesy taste. Not fake or overpowering at all. We universally agreed that the fries were the best part of the meal. Fresh cut and perfectly crispy.UPDATE! The fresh baked brownie and ice cream is to die for.

The waiter we had was super friendly and funny. The bbq brisket sandwich was perfect. The cookie desert was delicious.

This was an unexpectedly great pick. The outside ambiance was the perfect place to grab lunch. The pace of service initially concerned me because there was one server running her tail off. The restaurant wasn't packed but I thought for sure, the service was going to be sluggish. But it wasn't at all! Our lunch items came out quickly and were delish. The server was attentive and could see we were thirsty so she brought an entire pitcher of water to our table instead of having to refill our cups every time she walked by. If I'm back in the area again, I wouldn't hesitate to dine in again!

My husband tried the reaper wings. It's hard to please him with spice level. This was his absolute favorite. Huge smile on his face as he dripped with sweat. The cheese curds are amazing. No photo because we ate them too fast!

I loved the service. We had Karen mostly as our server. She gave her favorite dishes. Upon request and told us what was popular. Everyone at my table enjoyed their selections. My sampler had a nice selection of options, including cheese curds, burnt ends(just taste brisket pieces in bbq sauce). It also had fried pickle fries which were different than others that serve pickles served in chip slices. I was ok either how they came. The bruschetta was very acidic from the tomatoes and vinegar, but I easily offset with one of the 3 dipping sauces that were included.

We stopped here on our way to visit family and the service was outstanding. We tried the sauerkraut and corned beef balls and they were really good. I ordered the brisket sandwich and vegetables while my wife ordered the smothered chicken and vegetables. The marinade used for the chicken was perfect, tasty but not overwhelming. The mushrooms were firm and not mushy. The mixed veggies were broccoli, carrots, and squash cooked al dente. My brisket was cooked just right, juicy and tender. It came with BBQ sauce that hid the seasoning of the meat so I can't comment on that. Service 5 starsFood preparation 5 stars Food choices 4 stars. This is very subjective because with all the brisket choices on the menu, I wish there was a brisket entree similar to the pork rib dinner.

Wonderful little place with great food and service . We were taken to a table as soon as we entered. Given menus and water right away. Adam was our server, best personality for serving tables. We felt welcome and part of the group. It's part of a golf course with many regulars. Prices are reasonable with lots of foods to choose from. I had salad with salmon and my husband the rib eye steak cooked perfectly. More about Adam we Finnish our meal paid our bill and when he came back told us if we would like to stay longer to do so. It was poring rain and he was concerned about us getting wet. I recommend the resturant and our server

Great menu with a variety of choices. Good food and drinks! Definitely will go back again!

Went here on a whim and we are glad we did. On a nice golf course, we had delicious burgers. Service was quick and very nice.
