My husband and I have been getting fish on Friday nights for years. We love the fish and soup…read morespecial. Last night we got the fish and it was terrible!! The batter was so hard I couldn't even eat one piece, so I broke the other piece in half and scooped some fish out. The baked potato was ok but felt old and hard on the bottom. The soup wasn't as good as it could have been, but good. We were so disappionted. I looked to see if they got new owners or maybe a new cook. We will not be ordering fish on Friday again.

We've started a new tradition where we try a new breakfast place each time we go to Diamond Joe…read moreCasino. So far, we've been to at least five restaurants and this one is still our favorite in Albert Lea. I think the best thing we've had here is the Denver omelette with hashbrowns, but their pancakes are also very good. It's easy to get in and out of here quickly, and still eat it at relaxed pace.

The pancake was out of this world the best ever. The eggs, homemade sausage patty, hash browns and toast were perfectly prepared. If I lived in the area I would definitely be a regular.

The atmosphere was pretty relaxed and there's a few larger tables and smaller tables as well as some booth and countertops seating. I can't recommend them enough! This is definitely one not to miss, if you're in the area or if you're in town. I heard some of the locals say they have the best potatoes in town after having the hashbrowns I absolutely believe it. They also offer American fries or something similar. Not very often at the cook comes out to make sure that the food is good to which they did it and I really enjoyed.

We've stopped many times at the Trails but this was our first stop to eat at Skol Tavern…read more Our server was friendly and our food came pretty promptly. They do offer breakfast and carry beer. We had omelets and they were well done. The hashbrowns could have been browned longer but I do like mine extra crispy. You definitely get some of the Viking atmosphere with the dark wood, high ceilings, and huge fireplace. We didn't try Ragnor's Grill tho, Food was reasonably priced. It's a solid stop when traveling between Minneapolis and Des Moines.

And what a fantastic dive bar it is! While my husband filled a gas can (which they were nice enough to loan us) and walked back to the car, I sat down for a cold one and some conversation with the delightfully surly barmaid. The Three in One really saved our day. It was a really nice surprise. I left with a souvenir coozie and a much better attitude.
