As we parted ways she even gave us recos on shops to visit. We highly recommend Bar 209 for families of all ages.

The food was gourmet though the prices didn't reflect it. Happy hour was a special treat with two dollars off many drinks and all the appetizers. The service was fantastic. Krista was extremely attentive, kind, and personable. We were also visited several times by the manager who just wanted to check and make sure we were well taken care of. Yes, because of Krista, we were. Highly recommended. My only complaint is that there weren't many vegetarian options... actually no vegetarian options.

My buddy and I saw the local Applebee's and knew that there really was but one choice. We were going I be eating good in the neighborhood. Rolled up in around 11am. Would I like the larger beer for an extra buck? That's a dumb question. It's 11. So be sure to have a back up in queue because I'm ready to hit it hard. Wings are 1/2 price you say? Fire up two orders and point me to the bathroom so I know where I'll be headed in 45 minutes. Oh yeah. Get xl beer 3 ready. I'm in Bemidji and it's time to party. The first shift bartender cheerfully obliges and humors my friend and I from the opening bell until her sift ends and the new bartender comes on. What a gal. Does she look familiar? Spearmint Rhino? Maybe. But I digress. At this point we think it is a great idea to order frozen blue drinks. And it IS a great idea. There is no way I'm gonna be hung over tomorrow. Anyhoo. Bartenders were great. Had a fun time. Stopped in again after ice fishing a few days later. Got really drunk. Applebee's food tasted like Applebee's. Definitely saw a local with an escort at the bar. That made for more fun. At was also as we were all approaching blackout drunk. My mom would be mortified if I yelled something about a hooker inside of an Applebee's. That's only acceptable talk at church.

This was a bad bad day!…read more Went into applebees tonight with another couple and their grandson. This was the worse experience we have ever had, I understand the work situation at our bemidji, Mn location. But this was the worst. It was about 6 pm tonight and it was busy but I have seen It a lot busier. We were quickly seated and got our drinks right away (which I'll explain later) and put in our orders with a refil and then it went down hill after that. The grandson ordered a taco with lettuce and tomato and a yogurt with a sprite. Got his taco no lettuce or tomato and no sprite, after asking for lettuce and tomato for his taco and the sprite he got the sprite 30 minutes after his meal and no lettuce and tomato. Then my friend ordered chicken and got her order with the refil and then she asked for shrimp and more French fries and never got either after asking twice, then asked for the fries to go and didn't get that either, other friend asked for riblets after his cold shrimp and they came out cold as well, then an Oreo shake was ordered for the grandson and he waited 45 minutes and the server said she would take it off but I told her no that he had been waiting patiently and was looking forward to it the entire time we were there, so she went to check on it and the bartender was finally making it to go. None of us got the coleslaw side we were suppose to get. Just wasn't on any of our plates. Guess it was taken by the coleslaw fairies. None of us received any drink refills, thank goodness at the beginning my husband snd I got a water with no ice because she said it melted by the time she was bringing it to the table so she brought another that had ice in it. $84 dollar meal that was a complete joke...We did end up leaving a $10 tip, $94 at this point not sure whose fault it was, but we were all VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE EXPERIENCE WE had tonight!!
