I've visited Rendezvous many times over the last 6 years including a week ago. I, along with…read morefriends, have always remarked that the staff is friendly (especially the young lady who has been there for six years, I believe), polite and knowledgeable. Their beer offerings are varied and quality (including the bottled root beer). Plus, the place (tables/restroom/glassware) is always clean. I'll be in the area again this fall and plan on visiting at least a few times. Give it a try!

Food took a little bit, so I wouldn't go here if I was hangry and they were busier. For drinks, we ordered the Loony Bavarian and loony Lavender Lemonade. Both were fantastic! Husband is a blue moon fan, and he said the Loony Bavarian was even better! Next time he's going to order a crawler of it to take home :). I love that they let you taste things for free- I tried their plain seltzer, to see if I might want to get it in the future, and it was great! For food, we got the pita and spinach/artichoke dip- very good! We also both got the roasted chicken with white sauce and it was amazing! Will definitely be back!

Many of their beers were infused with different flavors and I truly loved each one. I had a blueberry lemon summer shandy and it was so refreshing! I love how strong the flavors pull through.

They have a section of games as well and share a hallway with California burritos which I highly recommend ordering & enjoying with your beer! Be sure to stop in if you're going by!

Very family friendly, we saw plenty of kids and there's stuff for them (a variety of sodas but also they do hard seltzer cocktails that can be made NA). In general they had a slightly wider menu of cocktails than most places like this have. Staff were also super nice, even stopped by our table to take orders. The even better thing is, it's of course connected to the Cuyuna MTB system, so you can ride hard, get thirsty, then come here for beer and protein. That's what we did and we left happy.
