    Amazing pepperoni pizza
    Kristine U.

    I was shocked to hear that the Red Horse Inn is now an awesome pizza joint and bar called Ansons!! I haven't been here since I was a kid. It's in the middle of rural Carleton and brought back a lot of memories. I was in town for work and family and I dined here 3 times during my visit. The pizza and breadsticks are excellent!! They have a good beer selection and mixed drinks. For dessert the cinnamon roll breadsticks will not disappoint. Service was great every visit, everyone is very friendly. I love the laid back atmosphere too. I can't wait to return next time I'm back in town.

    Gin/tonic

    We had a FANTASTIC JALAPEÑO Pizza and CLUB wrap. Both were awesome!!! We also had a Gin and Tonic, that was mix right and tasted great. Our waitress was FANTASTIC also. **Only down side, A/C wasn't working well, and we were sweating , while sitting inside . Building is old and Updates need to be made.

    Frickles all fried up, what waits inside is a surprise!

    Had a fine time at Anson's playing Name That Tune, which is apparently a big deal because the place was packed with lots of big teams! The beer was cheap and the food was roadhouse good. Big portions of midwestern favorites, burgers, salads (not the healthy kind), fajita wraps, and on and on. Everyone's food was great and everyone took about half their order home. Far and away the most interesting thing on the menu to me and my favorite item was the house made "Frickle." It's some bizarre and insane form of pizza, I suppose. The Frickle lives somewhere between an appetizer, a meal, a snack, and junk food. It is a crispy, quality dill pickle spear wrapped in salty deli ham and then cheddar cheese and then wrapped in billowy pizza dough and DEEP FRIED?! What? Yes! Served with an obligatory side of Michigan Ranch Dressing it's a crispy, chewy salty, cheesy, savory delight that's way better than you'd guess it'd be. Good on ya, Anson's. For those less adventurous, Anson's is know for their pizza on this long-time middle of nowhere roadside staple. It feels like the kind of place back in the day where you'd pull your buggy over to wet your whistle and get directions to the next town. I like that. Be sure to pop into the bar area and check out the vintage psychedelic multi-textured faux-velvet wallpaper. Worth it.

    Updating my initial review as we've been back over a dozen times (between happy hour, dinner and…read moretakeout)! First, happy hour is awesome: 4-5pm + last hour (so 8-9pm Sun-Wed and 9-10pm Thursday thru Saturday). It's half off: draft beers, sangria, starters, house cocktails and wines. Also, I stand by the opinion that DropTop is the BEST Detroit style pizza right now. However, their burgers are also FIRE - that olive burger? YUM! I also am happy to share that the little details from opening - like cold frosty glasses, cold plates for salad, from scratch dressings/sauces, etc. is still on-going which truly makes a difference to the overall experience. Service is always super friendly, helpful.

    DropTop is one of those small local spots that surprises you with how well developed and…read morethoughtfully run it is. The burgers are easily the standout!! juicy, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The shakes are AMAZING, and the pizza is different and big size, making it great for sharing. The fries are another win: crispy, well‑seasoned, and addictive. The environment is nice and cozy, which adds to the charm, though I do wish they had more tables. That said, they've optimized the experience by offering a separate pickup door, which makes takeout incredibly smooth and efficient... a smart move for a small business. What really elevates DropTop is the staff. They're super friendly, genuinely welcoming, and very knowledgeable about the menu. Their recommendations were spot on, and you can tell they care about the food and the customers. Overall, I'd absolutely come back. The burgers were my favorite, but honestly, everything I tried was solid.
