    Chicken Italian sandwich was amazing…read more Chicken Ceaser salad was very large and good. Small Service via bar was very good. Street parking available. Nice beer selection. Place isn't large, some high tops and regular tables, plus bar.

    My wife and I were exploring the shops in Alexandria Bay, when we became hungry and stumbled upon…read morethis Pub. When we walked in, we were greeted instantly and told we could choose anywhere to sit. Our waitress was almost over immediately to hand us menus and took our drink orders. The restaurant had a nice friendly ambiance to it. Seeming like this time a year, it was mainly for locals. There were one or two other people who walked in, who the staffed seemed to know. We ordered some of their garlic cheese bread as an appetizer. I order their southwest shrimp salad, and my wife ordered the cheese Italian bread pizza. We unfortunately were told that we needed to check in early to the place we were staying, so we asked if we could actually have our food to go, and the staff were so accommodating. We did have some of their garlic bread before we left, and it was crispy and fresh with nice gooey cheese. The marinara sauce was very flavorful too. The southwest shrimp salad I had was also delicious. The shrimp were cooked just right with a good amount of seasoning to them. The vegetables and tortilla strips were fresh and crunchy. The cilantro lime dressing also had a nice brightness to it, but also that creamy texture. We will definitely be back in the future when we come back to this area.

    Had the protein bowl. Delicious! Plus had the walleye nuggets to start. Really really good…read more Definitely stop in here. Server named DJ was super attentive and sweet.

    Super convenient location next to Uncle Sam's boat tours. Outside decor and inside decor is cute,…read moreanchor themed. Service was subpar. And the waitress was almost too chatty about it. When we were seated by the host, we watched our waitress ask the host if we were her table, because she already had too many. Throughout the meal she overcompensated about how busy it was and sorry for the wait - when in reality, we were in and out in less than an hour, and we personally didn't feel any delay. The food - my husband gave his fish sandwich a 4/5 - it was a good serving size and was crispy and fresh! Everything you want in a fish sandwich. We both had French fries, crispy and fresh! The garlic bread appetizer was spectacular! Cheesy and nice marinara sauce. However, the pulled pork sandwich - ehhh. First, it was in no way a sandwich - it was pulled pork poured over a dinner roll? Not inside, and it was not enough bread to put it inside. And the barbecue sauce was not my favorite - it tasted like mustard. If my eyes were closed, I would have thought it was a brown mustard. Very weird bbq sauce. Wouldn't eat this one again. Might give them a second try next time we come in to town, as the fish sandwich was good enough to return!

    Cute little truck stop diner off the highway. Clean and homey inside - regular kitchen tables and…read morechairs. Felt right at home right away! Waitress was patient with our five year old. Kiddo got the blueberry muffin that was so delicious - sugary every bite! He also tried a slice of the French toast which was eggy and perfect! I got the chicken tenders and fries and was pleased with the portion and price! Fries could have been a little less brown. I was insanely jealous of my husband's turkey club. It was HUGE and was so good! We would definitely return on our next trip to the Bay!

    Camping in the area we wanted to have lunch on our way out. I looked at lovely yet and found "the…read moreflying spatula" had good reviews. We arrive around 11am. The parking lot was empty. Thinking oh great is this place closed. Do we need to find another place. The shear panic. All the signs say open so we went in. What a quiet little "truck stop" diner. So conveniently located. Easy on easy off. Ashamed it wasn't busier. So please go here and support the flying spatula so it stays! First off there is a lot of choices. Everything sounded good. Kiddo got a blueberry muffin. It came hot and delicious. He also got a slice of French toast. Both very good. Wife got the chicken tendies and fries. (She panicked and wasn't ready so she ordered the old reliable) As for me I ordered the turkey club and it was hands down top turkey club I've ever had. This skyscraper was massive. We bother ordered the homemade fries and they were meah. Better with some more salt. All in all I think we'll stop every year we're in town and will recommend to everyone headed that way.
