I am only a visitor to town, but I took a chance on this place. It paid off big time! My server/bartender Shelby was absolutely amazing, and very helpful! Then the pizza I ordered arrived. It was VERY good! Very balanced flavor and the dough was great. I highly recommend Baxter's Bar & Grill!

In town for a family visit. We are staying at the hotel. The food here is absolutely delicious, and, the new manager, Tami, is a dream. She was very accommodating to all of our needs We had the Spinach and artichoke dip for an appetizer It was cheesy and had a nice spicy kick to it. For the entree's we had the Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza, and, the Patty Melt. The pizza was very good with a nice ranch sauce as the base. My boyfriend said the patty melt was good, but, has had better. We got an Andes Mint chocolate cheesecake to go. It tasted like a Girl Scout Thin Mint cookie!

Just your basic hotel bar with decent burgers and pizza. Food is average and staff is friendly.

Today was the first time I was in since the menu change, and I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food and the price was. Every day, they have half priced apps from 3-6, and the menu has some unique offerings, which can be challenging to find in the brained lakes area. We got two appetizers (smoked shrimp and pot roast poutine) and the Korean lettuce wraps. The smoked shrimp could have used a fatty component as they were dry, but otherwise I can't complain. We plan to come back.

Nice Asian flair to their menu. I recommend the Korean buffalo wings with the homemade tasting blue cheese dressing. Friendly staff.

My wife and I went to eat here in April. We ordered drinks and were about to order dinner when the waitress came back to ask for our drivers licenses so the bar tender could see them. We are both 69 years old. We said that was ridiculous and would not show them. We told her to tell the owners they need to trust their wait staff and bar tenders. We left and had a great dinner and drinks at the Black Bear restaurant down the street. Will never go back. That was the first time I've been asked for my license at a bar for about 45 years.

We were surprised to find vegetarian options on this menu , and actually a selection of them!Superb quinoa burger and portobello Brie melt. Fries nice and hot and crispy. Friendly server/ barkeep, Tia. We had a hard time finding it but our gps was sending us the wrong way. We drove from Cloquet for a day trip and would definitely go back again. Very pleasant lunch.

Easy to find, it is well marked, and connected to the Arrowwood Lodge. We immediately liked the bartender. She was friendly, helpful, and accommodating. We also liked the Bloody Marys. They do a great, non-meat, garnish, and serve it up with a small, beer chaser. We just had a couple of drinks, and snacked on some bar food, but found everything to be very tasty, and affordable. I loved the daily specials. The bar is clean, well-kept, and staffed with friendly people. This is a good place to come either for a drink, or for dining even if you aren't staying at the hotel.

Apparently the shortage of inexperienced (and trained) staff members has also impacted this restaurant. We visited on a Saturday evening and were met at the door by a harried employee who quickly advised that "food was very slow coming out of the kitchen and if we wanted to eat we'd be waiting a long time for our food." Despite that encouraging news we decided to stay (yes, we were new to the area and were tired of driving) with the rest of the guests who has chosen to hang around. By the way, the restaurant was not even at 75% capacity and the majority of those were families with children. The menu is simple and relatively limited and the "full dinners" could not be described as "low priced."My buddy had a beer while I had a soft drink and the first of each came promptly from the bartender (we were seated in the bar area, at a table).The seond of each was another matter. While he received eventually received a second beer after waiting at least 15 minutes (didn't get a clean/chilled glass by the way), the 'tender looked at my empty glass at least 5 times and never asked if I'd like a refill. That all took place 20 minutes before our food arrived.We agreed to stay and anticipated the wait for our meals and he food was fine. My wrap included chicken (pre-packaged with grill marks...Costco style) and tots looked good and tasted good. My buddy's burger was overcooked but edible. We were tired and hungry.The "2" rating could have been a "3" if only we had been checked on during the course of our visit. Instead, we were ignored while the "20 something" drunks at the bar were fed beers by the bunch. And by 9 PM, the staff was so busy trying to go home we, along with the other customers, waited way too long for our checks and any refills of beer, or soft drinks. Were our tables cleared?...not a chance. There are some hard-working folks at this place but the kitchen is obviously in disarray and some servers are much more interested in cashing out than earning bigger tips by providing better service to guests.

The forgotten restaurant of Baxter. Sure it's a hotel restaurant, but the quality is higher than most. We consistently have good food here and friendly service. We had a $5 Bloody Mary today that one of the best we've ever had.
