I've been coming here since before I could talk and I've stuck by it through building renovations and demolitions and rebuildings and now an ownership change. Â I haven't been to the cafe since the ownership change but the gas station still seemed quite good, although with a few (not unwelcome) bells and whistles.
When I first came into the cafe it had a mural of a lake on one of the walls. Â I will never forget that mural and I still want one in my bedroom to this day. Â A wall sized postcard of a beautiful Minnesota lake. Â HEAVEN! Â This was always a truck stop style cafe and it still is an updated truck stop cafe. Â So they do a decent breakfast and a decent lunch. Â At one point they even had a terrible salad bar. Â So... think truck stop. Â The service is fine and the food is fine, but they will never reinvent the wheel even when they're rebuilding it. Â It's a great stopping point on your way to all over the state.
