The Wild Hare

Fun 90's themed divey aesthetic. Super friendly servers. Food was amazing!! I was in from out of town and did a search for veg friendly restaurants and this popped up; impressed with the options. The Moroccan spiced cheese curds were totally bangin; we devoured them! Super unique flavor combo that I'm so delighted to have experienced. Drinks had fun names and were very delicious. I chose the strawberry salad and loved that tofu was an option. The spiced cashews really brought the whole thing together! My local friends hadn't been before and after such a wonderful experience have added it to their rotation.

I recently dined at The Wild Hare in Stillwater, MN, and it was an exceptional experience. The fusion of organic ingredients with Mediterranean and Moroccan flavors is truly unique.The menu offers a variety of vegan and gluten-free options, clearly labeled for easy selection.The atmosphere is a delightful blend of natural and dive bar aesthetics, with a 90's flair that adds to the charm. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing the overall dining experience. I highly recommend The Wild Hare for anyone seeking a memorable meal in Stillwater.

This spot is centrally located in Stillwater (right next to Candyland.) there are a couple of parking spots on the side of the building dedicated to the restaurant, but we were able to get off-street parking nearby. The bartender was so excited about the seasonal drink so we took advantage of that (a deconstructed apple cider situation with a smoked rosemary sprig. Delish.) The appetizers were amazing (get the Moroccan spiced anything.) We chose this restaurant because we have a vegan and a vegetarian in our dinner party and I knew this place would have great options for both meat and non-meat eaters alike (which they did). My bestie and I both ordered the chicken curry bowls and while the flavor was on point, we both agreed that the dish was a little too spicy for our pallets. I like spice, but I want a curry dish to be savory, creamy, and have just enough heat to warm my insides. This was more than that. I didn't end up eating much of it as a result even though the flavors were there. The only criticism I have is that in the winter, there isn't really a place to sit where you won't get hit with gust of cold air as other patrons enter or exit the venue. Even though they have a heater above the door, this place could benefit from one of those thick, velvet curtains that wrap around the interior of the front door entrance to keep the cold air from wafting through the place. I didn't use the restroom, but our male friends did, and they said they could see their breath in the bathroom. (Perhaps there was a heating issue while we were there that they don't normally have. Granted it was also an extremely cold weekend in MN, so we knew it wasn't going to be perfect but it was uncomfortably cold sitting next to the windows and front door.)The soundtrack was straight out of my teenage years (90s alt rock) which added extra charm to the place.Thankful that the proprietors have continued to push the envelope when it comes to cocktails, mocktails, vegan and vegetarian options, and ethnic cuisine. Glad we finally tried the place out, but will probably head back in warmer months.

I've been meaning to check out The Wild Hare for a while, and I'm happy I finally did! Walking in, I will say I was surprised by the more laidback vibe, definitely more causal than I expected. The atmosphere was super fun, with bright colors and a bit of a blast from the past feel. The service was quick and very attentive. The cocktails were a nice surprise, they were fancy and tasted fantastic. It's hard to pin point if this restaurant is aiming for upscale or casual, but they seem to pull off a bit of both.We ordered the special, deep-fried pickles, which were a solid choice, and the Korean BBQ boneless wings, also a win. There's a good mix of bar food and other options, so there's something for everyone. It's definitely more relaxed than I imagined, but I'd go back for sure. Great spot for a date night or catching up with friends!

We stopped in here for a quick lunch and were not disappointed! We got the fires basket as an app and had the hardest time deciding what dipping sauce to get! We ended up with the fry sauce and the basil aioli! Honestly all the sauces there are outstanding! We both had stopped across the street before for a drink at the distillery across the street and so we were already on the cocktail train! We got the lavender lemon martini and it was so good I got two! Hands down the best restaurant in downtown Stillwater and dare I say in the twin cities! Make the trip here, you won't be disappointed! I even got a gift card to here for Christmas! The gift that keeps on giving!

The only thing that as a bummer is the service was a little slow but the server was super sweet and amazing I think she was just the only one on staff that day and there was a large group that arrived.We had the supernova cocktail which was very refreshing. I had the Korean bbq bowl with steak and my friend had the Latin bowl with chicken we were both very happy with our bowls and they were delicious! We sat on the patio and it was nice and shaded.The inside looks fun and hip and has a nice vibe.

I had been wanting to come here for a while. Heard good thing about the good. The restaurant is pretty fun inside, a little small. I was able to get some fresh squeezed juice which was awesome! The greens one was our favorite, very gingery. Was expecting a little bit more volume for the price, but still tasted good.I had originally ordered the Korean bowl with chicken, but they had some issue in the kitchen, I ended up getting the pad thai. They were going to remake it but I was so hungry that they said they would take half off my meal for the inconvenience. It was good though! The chicken was really good. Others were really happy with their meals as well.Look forward to coming back here to try the other dishes!

Stopped in for a late lunch on a Saturday afternoon. Had the choice of sitting inside or outside.The decor is great! Records on the wall, movieposters, and a First Ave themed bathroom. Loved the music playing as well. Service was excellent as well - it helped we were one of about three tables.My partner and I split the strawberry cashew salad and the Korean bowl with tofu. The salad had great flavors, but I wish the lettuce and onion pieces were smaller. It was a little hard to eat. The Korean bowl was fantastic! Great flavors and super filling. I'd come back just to get this again!

This place has excellent choices if you are GF, more than simply removing the bread! I had tacos and my daughter had a burger and fruit. We had the chocolate torte dessert which was nice as well. I really like that you get a carafe for water refills, it was 82 and muggy when we stopped for lunch. Our waitress was very attentive but was a little slow to bring the check but the restaurant went from empty to nearly completely full by the time we had our meal.The decorations were rock related which was cool. The tables and chairs were comfortable and spaced well with the exception of parents trying to use a stroller as a chair, there was not enough space for that type of nonsense

Dive bar meets organic w/ Moroccan & Mediterranean flavors! I tried doing earlier this year and they were way to busy. Take two and it worked. Parking is street parking or a public parking ramp a few blocks away.Professional Widow- tye bourbon, peach, cynar, lemon & ginger beer. Refreshing and a fun play on a mule. 7/10 Cheese Curds - these were perfecltly cooked and had a nicecheese pull. Grab regular or moroccan & choice of dippin sauce. The Moroccan was a good flavor, but for my taste buds after about three it was to salty. I'd personally go for the regular next time. 6.5 for the Moroccan seasoning but 8/10 for the curd itself! Shrimp & Watermelon Ceviche - this was my fav. shrimp, cilantro, lime, red onion, jalapenos, & watermelon served w/ tortilla chips. Refreshing - I wouldn't mine if it had less liquid but flavor is great. 8.5/10Mediterranean - quinoa, arugula, basil pesto aioli, tomato, cucumber, lemon &crispy chickpeas. Keep as is or add a protein. I added chicken which was $7 additional. It was hard to choose which bowl I wanted as they all sounded so good. 8/10I didn't find the staff super helpful. They were very nice though.
