I had the French dip and the Italian. I liked the Italian more as it had fresh ingredients. They offer to refill drinks etc while you're eating which is a nice touch. They did forget to bring chips for both me and my husband and had to come back twice to get it right. My take away was it was spendy for just average food.

At the recommendation of a supplier, I stayed here one night on a recent business trip and was very…read morepleasantly surprised. My first impression from the outside was that it was a sketchy operation- especially after finding out that the tavern employees assist with checkin. However the rooms turned out to be very spacious and comfortable and the little upstairs sitting area was very nice. I certainly can't say enough good things about the amazing bbq restaurant and tavern downstairs. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating and the food was truly first class. They smoke their meats in a giant smoker behind the tavern so guests can stand on the rear balcony and take in the aromas of smoky bbq deliciousness. I would definitely stay here on a future trip through MN.

Because you don't want anyone to know about one of the best kept secrets in Minnesota! But because I wish them absolutely all the best - I MUST tell the world about one of the best Stay-cations I have ever had... I booked a room here last summer to get away by myself for some R&R. I've been looking to book again, and am happy to say that the prices have not gone up. Each room is $139- $149 a night, and is worth e v e r y p e n n y. This is not your typical Bed and Breakfast, nor is it a typical hotel. The gracious owners own an upscale BBQ restaurant downstairs, and run the Inn upstairs. Breakfast is served off their menu down in the restaurant - and was absolutely fantastic. I had a delicious chocolate chip scone and coffee, with spicy breakfast potatoes, eggs, and toast. They were extremely accommodating, and said I could order whatever I pleased. I sat on their back patio all by myself and it was - heaven. The rooms - OH THE ROOMS. You'd be hard pressed to find a hotel this nice anywhere nearby. They were clean, updated, and they spared no expense. There was a separate powder room, a huge luxurious whirlpool tub, and over-sized shower. The bed was large and comfy, and I fell asleep at night to the in-room electric fireplace. There was not one, but TWO flat screen tv's, and a beautiful marble sink/vanity area. The room also included a mini-fridge and a Keurig stocked with Caribou Coffee. The rooms were spic-and-span, and HUGE. There is even access to the shared back-porch. The inn-keepers were friendly and offered to give me suggestions of what to do in the area. Head down a few blocks to the main street and you will find plenty to do. There is also a wonderful winery about 8 minutes away called Chankaska Creek. If the guest book in the room is any indication, I am not the only one who has enjoyed my stay at the Konsbruck. It felt like a luxury to even be standing in that bathroom. I have been day-dreaming about returning ever since I left!!

This '1' rating is specific to their pies only. For…read moreThanksgiving I ordered 2 pies: a pumpkin & a pecan. 1. They were not 'fresh made', as had been implied when I placed my order early Nov. In fact: their 'sell-by' date happened to be the day after we served them for our Sunday family get-together dinner (even though I had picked up our custom-order just the day prior on Sat.) 2. Pecan pie was so liquidy/runny, and the pecans were both stale and semi-burnt, that we were only able to salvage 3 'scoops' of pie when serving it. Cost for this pie was approx. $27. It went in the garbage. 3. Pumpkin pie: flavorless with a doughy bottom crust that was clearly not fully cooked. Our guests tried it but not one person could enjoy it and they all skipped the bottom crust. This pie also went in the garbage. Cost was approx. $20. We have had cupcakes, bread, & soups from Wooden Spoon this year & all were good. Their service is always pleasant. Sadly though I must post this so that others can avoid paying top $$ for in-edible pies over xmas (or anytime.)
