Axe & Rose Public House

McCloud is a very small town. It has 4 to 5 eateries. This one is more upscale, with a good bar program and higher end American cuisine. Had the charred Brussels sprouts appetizer, best ever. Had an excellent burger, wife had fish and chips. Will have to try the big entrees next trip. Also had fast, friendly service. It is a large space that apparently doubles as an event space and has a stage for shows in large room next to main dining room.

So good! Service was great from start to finish. We ordered the pretzel sticks with cheese, Ribeye Steak, and the Grilled cheese and all three were delicious. Place was really stylish and relaxed, would definitely recommend!

What a lovely find in McCloud. This was right next to my lodging for the night and was one of the few, if not only dining spot for dinner.

There seems to be a limited number of servers, as there were 3 and while there was seating available, they were unable to accommodate more. I was told there would be a 15 minute wait, then received a call 5 minutes later that the seating was ready.

Food-wise, they really have a great assortment of classic comfort foods. The bone marrow and chicken pot pie are definitely recommended. Something hearty and delicious is a fine way to end the evening. Had a bit of a wait before I was able to order dessert, but other than that, a good experience overall.

Gourmet yet classic Americana food. They put a little extra touch into their dishes. The fried okra tasted like it was straight from the south. We also tried the pretzels and beer cheese which were fresh, homemade deliciousness! For our main course we had the bison burger with garlic fries and the volcano burger with the side cesar salad. Both were delicious, juicy, and flavorful. The drinks are fun and not poured with a light hand. We ended up getting the Old Fashion and Rose Cocktail. We could only do one because they were pretty strong. Any more and we wouldn't have been able to walk outta the place! Lol! Very good food for such a small quaint town and the only big restaurant around. It will not disappoint.
