You pay by the glass, so you can try as many beers as you'd like! I tried the wood-smoked wheat, chili pepper ale, cranfest, and beermosa. They were all great, but the chili pepper was my favorite. It had a nice, spicy aftertaste. They don't have food (aside from pretzels and other bar snacks), but you can order outside food to enjoy with your drinks.

CRISPY BRUSSEL SPROUTS Sweet and spicy soy glaze with sautéed red peppers and scallions. These were a little too heavy on the sauce for my liking, but otherwise very good. If you're not a fan of sweeter flavors, this one may not be for you. BUFFALO MAC & CHEESE Cavatappi pasta tossed in a creamy mac sauce, topped with crispy buffalo chicken, blue cheese crumbles, and onion straws. We added bacon and chicken, and this was a top pick for us! The buffalo sauce had the perfect balance--not overly spicy, but enough flavor to complement the creamy mac and cheese. CPB CO. FISH AND CHIPS Craft beer-battered haddock served with Northcoaster fries and house-made tartar sauce. Another top pick for us! The fish was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly fried. Honestly, one of the best fried fish dishes I've had in Minnesota. Unfortunately, I can't report on the beer as I'm not a big drinker...Sorry! Overall, a fantastic experience with great food, welcoming service, and plenty of variety. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Duluth!

The beer selection was a little smaller than we expected, but there was still a nice variety of styles, so everyone in our group found something they enjoyed. They also have a full bar with specialty cocktails. The food menu was surprisingly large with lots of unique and fun options to try. The only small downside was that the Brussels sprouts were still a little undercooked for our taste, but everything else was excellent and more than made up for it. Excellent brisket, fish n chips, and build your own burger! The garlic aioli and IPA mustard sauces were definitely memorable. Overall, it's a great spot for good food, craft beer, and a fun atmosphere located right on the pier. We'd definitely come back!

*(4.4) OC has always hit the spot. I've been eating at them for more than a decade now and am truly…read moreastounded they aren't more known or popular. The happy hour specials, which ten years ago were legendary, are only slightly less so these days. Prices, at least for drinks, and for some food, have not risen commensurate to competitors. For that alone, they should be commended. But let's get real, how many of our favorite places reward us with money or prizes for drinking there? How many would even give you a free meal for a birthday? There is ALWAYS a nice beer to be had here, good specials mid/late happy hours, and the pepp rolls are divine. OC has a special place in my heart and I always look forward to the next visit.

I was so sad when they closed old Chicago in Roseville. We had been going there for years . When we…read morewent up to duluth we had to check out this place. We weren't super hungry but we indulged jn the Italian nachos , wings and the spinach dip. Definitely a big yes for the Italian nachos, I missed them so much. I didn't partake in the wings since my brother and boyfriend went Tennessee hot but they enjoyed them. The spinach dip was a no for me but my brother enjoyed it. They still have a huge selection of beers . Since we were just jn town for a couple days we did not partake in the flight to get the cinco de mayo tshirt . The service was awesome and I loved the sense of humor our server had . Would recommend. This is a much bigger old Chicago than the one I had in Roseville and has a section with a large bar and arcade games. We will come back when we are jn town.

Drinks, followed by poutine 5 minutes later, then food about 10 minutes after that. We were all done within 30 minutes! The food was fantastic, too. Delicious poutine, with oozy gooey squeaky cheese curds. I had the smoked fish salad; it had the right amounts of everything and felt like a distinctly Duluth dish. My husband had the fish and chips. I had a bite of his fish, and it was perfect, with great batter and flavor. I would happily come here again on a visit. I can see why this is a city institution.

Intrigued by their homemade wild rice burgers, we decided to visit Fitger's Brewhouse for a dinner…read morewhile in Duluth. When we arrived a bit after 7PM, we had quite some trouble finding parking and ended up having to park a couple of blocks away after circling for 20 minutes. Walking in, the place wasn't too busy, perhaps 50% capacity. We were interested in ordering the fried cheese curds, but the server told us they weren't battered in house, so we passed on them. Smoked Fish Salad (Market Price, $18.99) - This is a pretty salad - all ingredients are arranged in rows along the dish. Mixing things together is a bit of a pain, but I appreciate the dressing on the side to add to preference. The dressing is an interesting blend of mayo and other ingredients, perhaps BBQ sauce, that make it slightly tangy and very sweet. There's an undertone of smokiness throughout, which tastes somewhat like liquid smoke rather than the dressing actually being smoked. It is on the sweeter side of dressings. Other than greens, there's a row of wild rice, dark and snappy, completely broken cultivated rice. There's also a bit of house smoked trout, nice and smoky. (4/5) Classic Wild Rice Burger ($16.99) - This is one of the tallest burgers I've seen in quite a while, mostly due to the inclusion of fresh vegetables including onion and tomato, and alfalfa sprouts. For some reason instead of using larger tomatoes, they use small roma tomatoes, including three small slices. They also used red onion that's chopped into a variety of different shapes instead of whole slices. It's really strange - I guess this saves on cost? Unfortunately smaller pieces means things fall out while eating. The patty is larger than the bun. It has plenty of broken wild rice bits giving some additional crunch and that signature wild rice taste. It's charred on the griddle well and it keeps its structure, not falling apart or becoming mushy at any point. I love how it's distinctively a rice burger and doesn't try to be a meat substitute. Two slices of American cheese are melted on top that gives some fattiness to the dish. The bun is toasted without butter and there's a flavorful garlic mayo spread on the top. It would be nice if they had also applied the sauce to the bottom bun as I found the patty to not have enough moisture or fat incorporated. The burger comes with some thin commercial fries. There aren't any issues with the level of fry and they are otherwise unremarkable. (4/5) Fitger's Brewhouse serves some solid good old fashioned Midwestern American food. Not much else to say.

Looking past the nightmare parking (which isn't their fault) our group of eight was promptly seated and our server greeted us and took our order. We got our beverages quickly and no issues there, the server was polite and courteous and smiling and we thought everything was fine. Half an hour passed, no food at all. Okay I look around maybe they're busy, nope only saw two other tables and maybe 4-5 people in the bar. So we continued to wait. An hour passes no food but the server checked in once or twice and got us water refills. After about an hour and 15 minutes I walked by the kitchen (trying to find our server) and the servers were all in the kitchen playing on their phones and appeared to just be chatting. A few minutes later we approached the hostess to ask why it's been over an hour and 15 minutes and no food. Just like magic the food came out a few minutes after we inquired. So the food overall was (mostly) okay. The pizza no issues, a couple other dishes no issues but the stir fry ingredients were poor quality (barely any rice, the woody end of the asparagus you usually throw out instead they put in the stir fry) also one of the pizza's was a size smaller than we ordered and the boneless wings were basically in the biggest pool of sauce like it was way too much sauce and because the insane amount of sauce (like almost the chicken was floating in it) it was way too salty and unable to eat it. We ate our what we could of our food and tipped and left and all agreed it was not a good choice of place to eat and would never go back. Worth noting one last thing.... About 20-25 minutes after we arrived a table of 4 people sat next to us and ordered shortly after they arrived. We were there for roughly an hour and 40 minutes total and when we left that table still hadn't gotten their food either. On the positive side, the server was polite and the pizza was decent. AVOID this particular Green Mill location unless you want to wait over an hour and 15 minutes to get your food.
