Decent spot. My omelette was runny and had lots of white. The food is perfectly okay. Very busy.

Great food in a really nice cozy town. Almost right on the Lake Superior shoreline!! Parking was a wee bit tricky, but good.

Worst grilled fish ever served by wait staff that obviously hate their jobs. The walleye was cooked like shoe leather and so thin we assumed they split a filet. Terrible food! Unpleasant staff.

We stumbled upon this hidden gem just driving through town looking for a bite. I really liked the atmosphere as it's locally known as "the meeting place in Grand Marais." The service was prompt, and the food was delicious. I had the chicken and fries, and their prices were very reasonable. Their business hours are limited, so be sure to check before you go. We'll definitely be coming back in the summer!

We had Philly cheese steak sandwich and boasted chicken. My Philly was served with a mountain of limp ,soggy, flavorless heap of dripping ingredients on top of what I believe was a hotdog bun which in turn had soaked up as much of this soggy glob of ingredients as possible!! Server came around maybe 20 minutes later to ask how our meals were!! I told her " this has nothing to do with you, but this is the absolute 💯 WORST Philly I've ever had and that I highly recommend removing from menu immediately as I literally wrung out juices out of my hotdog bun as she stood next to the table! Sorry for bad review, I've ALWAYS been a mom and pop cafe/diner kind of guy my entire life and I know how a bad review can impact establishments negatively. This was my first review of your place but man that Philly really was disgusting! P.S. The wild rice soup I ordered with sandwich was some sort of barley with colorless flavorless broth! So missed that one too!! Wife had boasted chicken (one of her favorite meals in the world) sorry it was edible but greasy! I was fully and cheerfully refunded my money,but, come on guys!!

We did not have a pleasant experience here. The food wasn't good and the prices were very high. The only thing I did enjoy was the cinnamon roll. We will not be coming back.

Cold food. High prices. 6 years ago this place had great breakfast. Not anymore. Eat a poptart for breakfast and go to fisherman's daughter for lunch.

I wanted to like this little diner. The food was mediocre at best and it wasn't even busy.

A perfect place to get breakfeast! I absolutely enjoyed my Swedish Pancakes meal. My wife also got a nice bowl of oatmeal and she said it was fantastic. Coffee was also super good! Our server was very nice and the atmosphere inside is extremely cozy. A great spot right next to Lake Superior!

Great find at Grand Marais. They have gluten free options and gluten free bread. Staff was very friendly. People are coming in and out all the time. This must be a popular place where locals meet daily for coffee and chat. Food was delicious and they have a gluten free lava cake that I ought to try next time. The food has a fair price and you are well served.

Excellent service provided today. Tried the grilled Cinnamon roll suggested by the server and it was very good. Very low key restaurant with very good food and accomdated the kids as well. Nice location right on Lake Superior in downtown Grand Marais.

Great place to stop for breakfast or lunch. Look for the entries with fresh caught salmon from Lake Superior.

Great, fast service. Nice staff. The #101 (just for fun) plate left my boyfriend fat and happy happy for the rest of the morning. My eggs Benedict was 👌🏽.

Decent food, but not the most friendly service. There can be a long wait in the morning as well.
