Lazy Moose

Very friendly and cozy diner

Reasonable prices on good quality food. My wife and I go for breakfast weekly. Eggs Benedict has great flavor! The omelets are a good size and the eggs are fully cooked with a good balance of veggies to protein.

Option of Bran muffins in place of toast is great. I haven't had one I don't like yet.

While heading back to Minneapolis from Duluth, we took a slight detour from I-35 and stumbled across the Lazy Moose. Cute name, even better food.

Our party of 5 dropped by right during the lunch rush but we were immediately seated. Our waitress was attentive, prompt and sweet.

I ordered the chipotle roast beef sandwich and it was buttery and crispy and yummy. For my side I got the lazy fries, which was a mix of sweet potato and regular fries. I loved getting both types of fries because often I can't choose! My husband got the Hawaiian chicken sandwich which must have been good because he ate the whole thing. The onion rings were really good...definitely homemade. The chicken salad on a croissant and the burger with wild rice were also big hits. None of us tried the meatloaf, but after seeing it delivered to other people, we all wished we had. The homemade pies also looked very tasty.

On my way out, one woman got milkshakes to go that made my mouth water. She was a local and assured me they were worth breaking your diet for! The best part was they stuck a wafer in the whipped cream to top off the shake!

This is a great small town joint and makes a great pitstop from the monotony of I-35.

The only thing 'lazy' about this place is the decor. It's one of those restaurants with a gift shop and all the decor on the walls is also for sale. Granted, the town is so small it makes sense for this place to serve dual purposes.
