Pine Cone Soup & Sandwich Cafe

Great place for lunch. My BLT and fries were great. Becky's table service was attentive and friendly. We had a dining room to ourselves.

Hidden gem in the northwoods. Solid patio seating with plenty of fresh air (diner style inside if mosquitoes bug you), thorough menu with lots of breakfast choices. Excellent selection of baked goods. Bonus stars for staff attention to Covid and social distancing. You feel safe.

Breakfast sandwich. Melts in your mouth. So good.

5 stars for sure for great service, location, and food. None of the following notes should take away but could be important for your visit:

1. Internet (3ish mbs) is satisfactory for casual work. If you need to eat some data, still might want to head to Grand Rapids. Tip: Both breweries are running +50mbs.
2. Creamer options are dairy only. If seeking oat/coconut/soy/etc options, be sure to bring your own.

First time visit but it will not be our last. We really enjoyed Pine Cone and it is very nicely decorated inside. Lots of things to gaze around at and this is a very clean restaurant.

The food that both my wife and I had was delicious and there was a good selection of items offered.

Being a pie buff, for desert I decided to try the pie, even knowing that it was not home-made. I had the coconut cream pie with a scoop of cherry nut ice cream on the side. The best part of the pie was the ice cream. There was much to be desired with both the filling and definitely the crust. It looked a lot better than it tasted.

My wife got two different kinds of cookies to go and they were both really good.

We would return if in the area again but I would stay away from the pie.

Such a cute place to eat far away up north! We had a wedding nearby so we went eating Pine Cone several times over the weekend, because we are in deep neck of the woods? So not much of options around. On a Sunday with a big group for breakfast to wrap up the weekend before hitting the roads back to Twin Cities, the waitresses and the owner did a wonderful job hustling our orders and very friendly employees!

Another thing is, we are deaf and not once there's a communication barrier with them, like we usually have with hearing people on daily basis. I think they were overwhelmed, but they got hang of it! ☺

I've dined at the Pine Cone several times over the years and the food is always well-presented and delicious. This morning I ordered the French Toast w/bacon and it didn't disappoint, perfectly prepared and lightly sprinkled with powdered sugar on a plate that didn't show any fingerprints from the kitchen. It's the little things that matter.

Just before closing I stopped back for a late lunch. The 1/3lb cheeseburger came with a generous side of chips, pickles and the raw onions I requested. They were quick to refill my ice tea as well.

They have a friendly & engaging staff that always seem to be cleaning the tables, chairs, floors and countertops. The dining area is peppered with interesting hometown bling and there's an outside dining area for the folks that enjoy our clean Northwoods air.

Highly recommended!

Use to drive up from Grand Rapids and stop here all the time. Quaint little place with really good food.

Great food for great price! Staff is super friendly and do a excellent job! Very clean, Highly recommended. Drive is super fun also coming from the south. Definately be back. Great place to stop for a ice cream treat also.

Went for breakfast and it was delicious! Brought back cinnamon rolls for the rest of our family at the resort we were staying at, they were a big hit! Wanted to go back for ice cream and lunch, but ran out of time. We’ll definitely be back next summer!

Great food and atmosphere. I'll be going back again.

Great little place with yummy food and friendly service!! I went twice with my family over the holiday weekend, the staff was very patient with the toddlers and extremely accommodating to all requests. The Deli Delight sandwich truly was a delight!!
