  I love small town bars and this is the definition of a small town bar.  If you're not a regular, you are probably going to get some looks from the patrons when you walk in, but as soon as you order a beer or a non fancy alcoholic drink that goes away.  This is definitely not the place for you if you are looking for a martini or something along that lines. Think more along the lines of a jack and coke.  They have a pretty decent beer selection on tap(Nordeast, Grain Belt and Stella to name a few) and most beers will run you around $4.
  
  They do serve food, but you need to place your order at the window where they'll give you a number to place at your table.  I have not had the food here, but my friends have nothing but good things to say about the food.  
  
  So if you are looking for place to hang out with friends or to catch the game, I would definitely recommend this place.

  Great place for a burger and a beer type lunch killer burgers and cold beer and if you like your mixed drinks on the stiff side they know how to pour them too!

  This place is diiiiiiiiiiiiceeeeeey!!!!  
  
  But it's all good.  I went to college in a small town in southern Minnesota (Go Gusties!) so I cut my drinking teeth in stereotypical small town dives and my appreciation for them hasn't diminished over the years.  Oh yeah...I'm a dive bar connoisseur!
  
  To kick off Memorial Day Weekend '08, the man and I opted to stay close to home and this spot in Lake Elmo was less than 9 miles from our plasticky townhouse in plasticky Woodbury and seemed like it might be worth checking out.  And it was.  
  
  These are the top reasons I'll be back:
  --there was a dude with a mullet sitting in the corner!
  --hellooooooo dive bar!
  --REAL made-from-scratch burgers (and even my well-done burger was juicy)
  --PBR on tap
  
  It feels like the middle of nowhere, and if you're coming from anywhere other than Woodbury, Stillwater or Grant, it is.  As for ordering etiquette, when you first walk in the door you walk up to the window, tell 'em what you want and which table you'll be sitting at.  They bring the food out to you and when you're done you take your slip to the bartender to pay.  
  
  It was super informal, ultra chill and just what the Friday Night doctor ordered.  I can't wait to come back some night and over indulge on beer and tequila shots.

  Excellent Burgers Cooked from scratch. Beer and rootbeer also.
  Fair prices, no microwaving. Good service, and friendly. Not like the Franchises at all. This is real food; not the fake crap the franchises sell.
  
  Short drive worth the trip.
