The Drink at Lakewood

They have too few food items.  They need hamburgers and not just bar snack foods.  How about some type of sandwich choices. They need to check out the Pier Bar or Captain Freddy's for some expels of food choices.

Yelp usually fails me not.... but reviews about the Drink are waaaay off.  

I dropped by several times during a recent visit to ND and have absolutely no complaints about this place.  The bartenders and wait staff were all incredibly friendly, attentive, and quick to offer another pour.... plus they've got great drink specials, live music and lots of fun events.

The Drink offers a nice assortment of bar food, including pizza, hamburgers, walleye fingers, chicken tenders and these funky little mini corn dogs.  I will admit that I had my qualms about ordering a pizza here, but I was pleasantly surprised.  It was *very* good... exceeded all expectations.  They also offer complimentary snack mix.  

This place has a very laid back, relaxing vibe.  I absolutely loved the large outdoor patio overlooking the water.  

Let's get drunk at the Drink.... Pond Water for everyone!

My husband and I love this bar. I see all the bad reviews so maybe it's just us. It's quieter most nights and we love to come out and have a few drinks and play some pool. They have a really nice outside patio area on the water with fireplaces that are perfect to sit next to on chilly evenings. They have DJs a lot and quite a bit of room for dancing both inside and outside.

I'll admit sometimes the service isn't great but the bar itself is really nice and it still gets five stars from me because it's my favorite in town. I know that you can order food there as well, normally bar appetizers and pizza. We have ordered food here before. Their shots are good.

Try the pond water shot. It's my favorite :)
