"Visited this large sports bar on a Monday toward the end of the lunch rush. I was surprised how busy it was, but the owner told me that business was normal, or even a bit on the light side for a Monday, which is the least busy day of the week. Impressive! Note that by the time I took most of the pictures the rush was over. The venue is quite large, and able to accommodate large groups with ease. Lots of big screen TVs. I heard that local TV stations visit frequently during the football season. This place would be on my short list for watching a Vikings game. They have an arcade style game room with a TV, table and a couple of chairs, so if you need to amuse the kiddies and keep an eye on them, you?re all set. I ordered some bar food a chicken sandwich and fries. And a beer. I was slightly disappointed that my favorite local beer Surly Furious was not available, having recently been ousted in favor of Bell?s Two Hearted. The food was fine: chicken was well cooked, moist and tender, and a generous portion to boot. The fries were just how I like them gentle with the deep fryer and seasoning. I discussed the menu with the owner and he mentioned that their pasta dishes were especially good. I?ll come back for supper one o0f these days and give those a try. COVID: the staff all wore masks, and at one point I saw the owner gently admonish a customer for not wearing his mask while he was walking."
