They let us put in a reservation as we had a larger party, and our table was ready right when we arrived. The restaurant was packed for a Sunday morning breakfast! I had a Belgian waffle- it took a bit as thr first one didn't come out, and I don't think I would get it again here. However, my bacon was delicious and perfectly cooked, my niece loved her Mickey pancake, and my sister's Benedict was fantastic. Biscuits and gravy reviews from the table were decent. Service was fantastic- and we'd likely be regulars if we lived in the area- would recommend.

But please lower the volume on the music so I don't get hearing loss for my grandkids.

We ate at Skoog's for lunch today. Great atmosphere, clean, nice people but We waited an hour just…read moreto get our order taken and the another 40 mins for our order to arrive at the table. And that was after asking the server twice what was happening and letting him know we would be leaving in 15 mins if our meal was not on the table. The restaurant was busy but not that bad and there were pleasant of servers. The food was very good and I would try them once again because sometimes it's just a bad day. But the jury is out. I wouldn't stay if we had the same service next time.

We tried the home made mushroom soup. It was the best mushroom soup I've ever had. Very rich and creamy. We had the wings for an appetizer with the Thai chili and blueberry bbq sauces. Blueberry is house made and Both sauces are delicious. I had a half of a order of the corn beef and cabbage with carrots. All were tender, perfect, and delicious. For dessert, we had the beignets with chocolate. We really enjoyed our dinner. Thanks to both the chef, server, and Manager.

I was not a big fan of the rest of the menu, so I don't know if I would come back here. Food is a bit on the salty side. Our visit was in the evening (Sep/ early Oct), and there was a waft here and there of a stench like sewage? I am not sure why the bar seating had this odor when the bathrooms were on the other side. Was a bit unappetizing but we tried to ignore it. Service was fast when it came to our ordering and drinks came out quickly. Food was on the slow side. See my pics. The seafood chowder special soup was good. The cheese curds were greasy and salty but not bad. My bro had the pickle burger special and he enjoyed it.

They even list the farms where the ingrediants came from on the menu. When I arrived I had to use the washroom. Not only was it clean but it was stocked with cotton towels. I knew that this was a good omen of things to come. My husband and I had the grilled cheese and tomato soup and the grass fed hamburger. This may have been the biggest and most pack grilled cheese I've ever had. The hamburger was good but the potatoes that came with it stole the show. Since the entrees were so good we were excited to try the desert. We ordered the homemade chocolate peanut bourbon pie. This had the consistency of a pecan pie and was very rich. Everything was great at Thyme Craft Kitchen. It comes highly recommended!
