We tried a couple of their sandwiches--the Reuben panini was flavorful and satisfying, while the Hot Corner Beef and Cheddar was just okay. Overall, a decent stop for a casual meal, but nothing that really stood out.

The large beer was as big as our heads and easy to share between 3 adults. Our waitress, Olivia was so good and patient with the kids and multiple requests. As we parted ways she even gave us recos on shops to visit. We highly recommend Bar 209 for families of all ages.

This seems to be the place to dine in Bemidji so we went to check it out. We had a reservation and…read morewere given a great smaller booth which I prefer to the large shared tables. Our server was working her tail off, with a large table near us, outdoor patio tables, and many tables inside. To that end, we waited a bit here and there but she was apologetic and clearly working hard so no worries. We started with dry rub, bone in wings which I accompanied with a Bemidji IPA. Both were fabulous. Next, we split a smash burger with fries. The meal had a lot of potential but the fries were warm, not hot, and the burger a little small (but it did have a double patty and tons of sauted onions). We finished the meal with the Big Cookie Sundae and big it was. Waaaay too much to eat with only 2 people. The cookie was delicious. Soft and gooey inside with a nice crisp around the outside edges of the cookie. We tried but couldn't finish it. Liked the brewery vibe in there with lots of seating and exposed brick. Nice stop.

This is a favorite stop whenever we're in Bemidji. Everything tastes homemade, but better. The hash…read morebrowns are perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and moist inside.

Cute diner, busy on a Sunday morning…read more Went here to stop for some breakfast on the way back to the cities. Arrived around 10:20 on a Sunday morning and had to wait about 20 minutes. Waitstaff was very friendly. Two coffees (pay for the cup and you get a pitcher for the table), corned beef eggs Benedict, and country spuds with blueberry pancakes came out to about $51 with tax and tip. Not too bad for price. Loved that they bring the story of the diner to the table. You can read about its history while you wait for your food.
