“What can you get for $5 nowadays? How about a herring fish sandwich? They catch their own herring, make their own tartar sauce, and the whole staff is just pleasant and funny and upbeat.”

“Fantastic home made breakfast, beautiful view. Went for a foraging retreat and the snacks served were really delicious too. All the people that signed up for our retreat were super kind and welcoming too. We had come unprepared to cook, and people made sure we stayed fed. Loved it!”

“This was our sixth time here. Brought some friends that had never been before. The cabins had some much needed improvements made. Things were getting a little run down. It was good to see reinvesting in the property. The staff in the bar and restaurant are fantastic Amber ran the restaurant and bar on her own on multiple occasions due to staff shortage. Lauren did the same on her own! Both ladies were beyond accommodating to our entire group and we can honestly say they are a major part of our wonderful weekend! Good staff that genuinely love what they do are hard to come by these days so we appreciated the high level of customer service we received even when things were busy Food was great, drinks great The hours at the lodge are abbreviated again due to staff shortages (so bring some beverages for the cabin) The skeleton staff they have are hustling!, It was such a hit with our friends now they are planning another trip! Thank you to the entire hard working team at Gunflint, but a special shout out to Amber & Lauren! You gals rock! Thank you! J, J & J ❤️🍸❤️”

“Rooms in the Lynx cabin were not displayed on the website. I have slept on air mattresses more comfortable. Great location and staff were very friendly. Not worth the $400+ for 2 nights.”

“We stop here for dinner everytime we go to the Gunflint Trail, we love it! The menu is unique, made from scratch, thoughtful and DELICIOUS! I had the best soup of my life here a few days ago. Everyone is super down to earth and welcoming. It has amazing views and is beautifully designed. Highly recommend stopping here for dinner. You can't beat it, summer or winter, it's the best place on the trail!”

“The food is phenomenal. Erin is an excellent waitron. She will remember your order and take good care of you. Yes, they are a bit understaffed at the moment but the food far makes up for the wait. The pancakes, fried green beans, and Walleye are spectacular! There is always a very inexpensive daily special. The best one is the coconut shrimp 🤤. I'm. Pescatarian and there are PLENTY of options. My wife is vegetarian and the kitchen will accommodate the restrictions easily. If you're willing to wait, the food is worth it!!”

“Great location - we have rented cabins in the summer and always enjoy staying at the lodge in the winter for snowmobile trips. It's nice to support a family business especially when they are a family worth supporting, wonderful people! Thank you for yet another wonderful stay Rachelle and Cory. Don't forget to eat at Raven Rock Grill - Cory is quite the chef!”

“For my review of My Sister’s Place I’m including a picture of an empty plate. That’s right, an empty dirty plate. Why would I do such a thing when so many other reviews have pictures of their meals before a bite was even taken, before the chef’s handiwork was distributed? Why you might ask. Why? Well, the answer is simple really. It’s because the food was so great (Granny burger if you must know) that I was too busy enjoying my meal to even consider disgracing it by taking my full attention away from it for even just one second. I fancy myself a bit of a burger aficionado. I’ve sampled burgers in the fanciest of restaurants in the biggest of cities to the most far flung hole in the wall greasy spoons in the middle of BFE. And through my adventures Ive had bad burgers, good burgers, and great burgers. Now I won’t say this is the greatest burger Ive ever had, but it is up there no doubt, easily in the top ten. The apple with the bacon was AMAZING! My taste buds were singing the songs of angles. The fries were cooked in the finest of oils with no hints of fish (quite common in the upper Midwest, especially during Lent), at a perfect temperature. And the beer was served cold and did its job quite well at washing everything down. Not only was the food amazing but our server was fantastic too. 10/10 would recommend My Sister’s Place and I will definitely eat here again next time I find myself in Grand Marais.”

“I missed this food truck on my earlier trip to the North Shore at the beginning of summer but this time, thank god, I made a point to stop. I love hot and spicy so I ordered the chicken vindaloo and asked for it extra extra spicy. It did not disappoint! They even gave me an extra side of some amazing hot sauce - I need to figure out what chilies they used so I can try to make it at home. The chicken vindaloo was simple, but perfect. You can tell that the flavors took time and love to develop. Huge chunks of moist chicken and potatoes swimming in the most flavorful sauce you can imagine. I have had chicken vindaloo at any places in big cities, and this one was by far the best ever. And the fact that it’s up in Grand Marais makes it an extraordinary find! I also got a side order of naan that you could tell was homemade - absolutely perfect for sopping up the extra sauce. My plan was to save half of this to bring it home with me but I couldn’t resist ate the entire thing so I definitely will be back next time I am up at the North Shore. The next morning before heading out of town, I stopped by when I saw them prepping for the day and told them how much I loved the food and then I would definitely be back. Taste of India - THANK YOU for bringing some absolutely extraordinary and authentic Indian food to one of my favorite places on earth!”

“This was a pretty busy place to eat at 1800 on 6/17/23. It was worth the wait!!! I ordered a chicken bacon ranch and a spicy beef taco, both all the way. I also ordered the Nashville hot curds. Everything I ordered was eaten and it was delicious! For us it was the perfect spice and flavor and we were completely satisfied. We will happily come here again.”

“Great diner. Extremely friend staff with warm kind service. Food was absolutely incredible. I had the fish (Herring) , eggs, fried potatoes, and toast (pancake). Some of the best fried fish I've ever had and I've had a lot being from Louisiana. First place I visited after we moved were and I can say, we definitely felt welcome. For sure a must if you're looking for peak diner food with one of a kind small town hospitality.”

“A bit more like a restaurant that your usual brewery taproom, but good nonetheless! Downstairs has table service, upstairs/roof is for those who order beer at the bar and go up top if I remember correctly. Loads of merch available, much more than any other brewery I've been to. The beer and cheese curds were good, as well as the service. Lots of outdoor seating when weather allows. Nice place.”

“Often overlooked, the Birch Terrace Supper Club and bar offers excellent food at reasonable prices. The service is excellent. The beef brisket sandwich as well as the Reuben, and patty melt were all crowd pleasers, as was the Walleye dinner. We all liked the baked potato, which was done just right. The 100+ year old building was warm and welcoming, and had a great atmosphere . If you are a party of two, ask for a spot in the glassed-in porch for a great view of Grand Marais harbor.”

“Ordered the Brazilian Moose Bowl and added Agave Honey - delicious! Great customer service, good location, just wish they were open later into the day! Twice now in the last week I would have headed over to pick up a smoothie or a bowl, but per their operating hours, they were already closed. Definitely though, I’ll return!”

“I just found this icecream shop yesterday. I am so glad that I went. They have amazing icecream with nice options of flavors. I went again today for my favorite maple walnut flavor. Woww.. amazing 😍. Really loved the vibes too. They let me taste all flavors and I can't stop thinking about maple walnut. Try out this gem. Thank me later”

“Went here twice during my stay, had a great experience both times. Had the Nordic miel and a raspberry white chocolate scone, and a maple latte the second time. Coffee is very nice. There are a few places to sit indoors and lots of outdoor seating. It can be very busy, but they serve you very quickly and efficiently despite the crowd.”

“I got an old fashioned and fajitas with smoked chicken. It was all tasty. I got their standard old fashioned. They offer middle or top shelf upgrade options for an additional $2/$4. Their basic old fashioned is good. The fajitas and their presentation were excellent. The portion is generous (4 large tortillas worth). The sliced peppers (red and yellow) were delicious in the mix. It comes with shredded cheese, sour cream and salsa. It would be better if they doubled the portion of salsa - and perhaps offer a medium hot option. The spice level is very mild as it is. The vibe of the Tavern is welcoming. It offers great views of the iconic harbor and Lake Superior out the large from windows. It’s a great place to meet up with friends or family. Free parking available on the street. I appreciate that they have nice tunes playing in the background and no TVs to distract from conversation.”

“We were fortunate to find a table inside The Fisherman's Daughter to enjoy a late weekday lunch. The fish & chips (with white fish) were tasty. My husband had the white fish but substituted the cheese curds for $4 more and really enjoyed them. My chicken fingers & chips were okay, the chicken being a little over-cooked to my liking. A friend enjoyed her white fish tacos. The restaurant was quaint and clean, with gifts available for purchase. Would eat here again the next time I'm in the area.”

“We all had a really good lunch at the blue water cafe. There’s something for everyone on the menu. They offer the breakfast menu all day and there are specials. Not a very big restaurant, but there never seemed to be much of a wait for a table. The walleye basket was really good.”
Address: 408 W Hwy 61, Grand Marais, MN 55604, USA
“Nice view, but pricey. They do factor in a 20% service charge (AKA tip), so be aware of that. Plating of food was awesome. Plates looked beautiful. I ordered the grilled chicken dinner (Chicken and sauce get five stars, it was delicious! Wild rice side was dry/bland, wish it was seasoned or sauced more. Asparagus was perfect as far as asparagus goes. Salad looked beautiful, but the dressing choices weren’t good. I didn’t care for any of the four they leave out on the table.”

“We've stayed at Cascade Lodge a few times in the last couple of years, and we love it. Top-most is the staff. Everyone--from the front desk, to the restaurant, to maintenance, to house cleaning--every single employee (and the owner) we've met has been genuinely kind, professional, helpful, and friendly. In addition, ultimately this is a place to sleep, and the beds and linens are superb. The restaurant is one of the best on the North Shore including an inventive menu and clever cocktails and well-poured Guinness in the bar. Overall, we'd like to extend a heartfelt thanks to everyone at Cascade.”

“Gorgeous location! Food was quite good, I had a mushroom & swiss burger with waffle fries. The burger was very tasty, with the exception of the bun, and the waffle fries would have been better without the coating. My wife really liked her soup! There was no real wait staff to speak of, we had to go to the front counter to order your food. The prices are a bit higher also, but I understand location location location. 😊”

“Gorgeous views from the patio. Food tasted great. Sweet potato fries are worth the up charge. Friendly wait staff. Recommend the wild rice burger...nice vegetarian option. We went on a Sunday around 5 and were seated immediately. Will definitely return on our next trip to the north shore.”
