    Parking Lot

    This place is a hidden gem. We were driving through Annandale and spotted it on the side of the road and had to try it. The venue is large and has a huge parking lot. The beer selection was super good and able to do flights and interact with the staff. We got to talk for a while with one of the brewers and learned a lot about the history and how they brew their beer. I tried the root beer also and one of the best I've had in a long time. The Speakeasy and Pinkalicious are great. Speakeasy was a beer that tastes like an old fashioned and very unique. If you are in Annandale, you have to stop and try them out!!!

    So glad I swung in here and checked this place out. They are pumping out some amazing beers here. The speakeasy beer was so unique and tasted just like an old fashioned. Highly recommend getting a flight and trying out four different brews. I enjoyed them all - don't think you can go wrong. An absolute gem. They have board games, tons of merch, a a cozy fireplace and a weekly trivia night! No food but you can get food delivered and eat in. Cheers!

    Breweries are a special place. Spoiled Grain Brewhouse is a nice setting with plenty of seating in the main area as well as down by the fermenters. Fairly large selection of brews currently offering some good higher abv selections. Overall good beer. That's the cool part of micro breweries! They each have their own flavor and sure, some may prefer one over another, but it's nice to try the various approaches to the different brews. Service is always friendly and helpful. Off sale has a great selection. The wheat wines are a must try!

    Our flight of 4... the shandy was the best!

    Random stop during a beerventure with friends, Spilled Grain became my 94th MN brewery visited. We went right after visiting Aegir Brewing and the bar was set really high. Unfortunately it wasn't quite met. The space is huge; ton of seating in a dimly lit large hall with a good sized bar and some extra seating in the back where the brewing equipment is. There is a giant projector set up front so it makes sense for this place to be a popular destination for patrons to watch some sports and drink some beer or bigger groups and families. We opted for a flight to try multiple of their brews and had a variety of pilsner, ale, IPA, and a shandy. Sadly, the Porch Swing shandy was the only drinkable beer and I feel like that says a lot because shandies are pretty much impossible to mess up. Even my friend who hates shandies said this one was the best beer we had; that's how bad the rest were. I absolutely love shandies and this was one was beyond fantastic....I wanted to take a crowler home. For this one beer I'm raising the stars from one to two. The supposedly "Czech" pilsner was nothing like an actual Pilsner (czech girl over here so I get to say that). Something about it was so off and way too bitter. The other beers were also just forgettable, bland, and simply not good. Maybe we came during the wrong time or something, not sure. We've heard this place wins a ton of awards...can't imagine why. Maybe it's just the fact that there's nothing better nearby to compare it to? I don't know what I'm missing. And the fact that my other two friends who are much bigger beer aficionados than myself agree reassures me I'm not imagining this. I wish the beers were much better even though I loved the shandy. We might stop by here at some point in the future just to see how they're doing but we most likely won't rush back anytime soon.

    Enter.

    Top notch brews all around. I thoroughly enjoyed each of the 6 samplers I had on my flight (see pics for names). The Irish was a standout, which surprised me because it's not typically a style I seek out. The Small Town SMaSH #2 was also one of the best pale ales I've had in a long time and the Imperial Brown collaboration between them and Lupulin clocking in at nearly 10% was a beaut. Great looking tap room and bar area. In talking with one of the owners, I learned a little about their journey and he pointed out some of the unique features and designs in the building, such as the reclaimed red brick around the bar to back of the house doorway from an old school in town that was demolished. The architecture and decor lends a definite down home and cozy vibe. Looks to be reclaimed barn wood on the exterior, too. I definitely need to come back on a warmer day to enjoy the outdoor seating area. All in all, I'm thoroughly impressed by what this place has to offer. Great expertly crafted beer, cool digs, and nice people, all less than an hour drive west of "the cities". Don't just take my word for it; get out here to check it out for yourself!

    Went to Thayer on a Friday night, it wasn't terribly busy. Upon arrival, I was very bummed it was…read moreraining because the patio seating looked lovely. We sat inside and the decor was dated and a dingy. There was also food smeared on the wall near our table, and the tablecloths were noticeably sticky. The drinks were decent. I ordered an Irish coffee, which was well-made and enjoyable. Things went downhill once we ordered food. I asked our waitress for a recommendation between the walleye and the salmon. She said, "Well, I'm partial to fish so I would say the walleye." I did order the walleye but the dish came out cold and lacked flavor. To top it off, it was served on a plastic, fish-shaped plate--not what you'd expect for a $22 entrée. My husband ordered the steak and shrimp with mashed potatoes. When his meal arrived, the potatoes were missing. He let the waitress know, but after waiting 15 minutes with no sign of them, he asked to cancel the side. Even after our entire party had finished eating, the waitress didn't come back for another 15 minutes. We asked for the check, and still had to wait another 10 minutes before she returned--without the bill. Overall, the service was slow and inattentive, and the food was mediocre at best. While the drinks were okay, it wasn't nearly enough to make up for the rest of the experience. For the price, we definitely expected better. We will not be returning.

It took forever, other large tables turned over while we were there. Five of us got our meals, three of those were cold. The other two got there meals with no sides, by the time their sides came they were done. We cancelled the last two meals and complained to the assistant manager. She blamed it all on the waitress, she was very rude and unprofessional. She got the manager, who had told him we were going to other tables to complain about the service which was a down and out lie. No one in our party had left the table or had talked to anyone and the assistant manager was the only to raise her voice. He seemed surprised but I pretty sure he believed what we were telling him and he just left. We paid online and gave the waitress cash for her tip and requested she not share it. We will not be going back!

    We visited Waterfront Bar and Supper Club for dinner when we were on Clearwater Lake and enjoyed…read morethe nice water views, which made for a relaxing setting. Service was on the slower side, though our waitress was friendly and pleasant throughout our visit. The food was very average overall. The walleye platter was disappointing, as there were quite a few bones in the filet. The half chicken, however, was good and probably the best item at our table. Overall, it's a nice spot for the view and a casual meal, but the food and service were just okay and not necessarily worth going out of your way for.

It's a great campground/permanent place to stay with great neighbors, a large lake, and plenty of things to do, and to go relax. My wife's father in law is having an upcoming birthday, and we bought the extended family dinner at the local Waterfront restaurant. This place is always packed and is open for dinner only except on Fridays and weekends I believe. When we arrived at about 4:30 pm, we were seated immediately and there were a total of six of us. Two children, and four adults. We all ordered apps, mains, and drinks. The wife and I ordered a martini on the rocks, as in a lowball glass, filled with ice, and vodka. Nothing else. I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. Sure enough, a stacked glass, ice and vodka. I think I caught the waiter winking at my wife when he dropped off her drink... Anyway, the apps were Bavarian pretzels and cheese curds. Sounds simple enough, but they were perfectly fried, and the pretzels were so hot no one could touch them for about 20 minutes. They had a super crisp outer brown crust, and were pipping hot and tender on the inside. They were served with a nice cheese sauce on the side. Get these. The cheese curds looked very good as well with a nice flaky crust, and served with a side of marinara sauce. Unfortunately, the kids shoved these into their respective face holes so fast I didn't get to try them. Looked good though. The mains were pasta and a hamburger for the kids, and the adults got a steak filet, a bowl of chili, beer battered jumbo tiger prawns, and I tried the beer battered Canadian walleye, broiled tiger prawns, and broiled scallops. The mains came with a nice side salad with fresh peas. The salad was pretty run of the mill, but the peas were a nice sweet touch. The potatoes au gratin were very good as well. One of the better sides. Again, these came so hot that it came with two ceramic dishes stacked on top of each other. I would recommend the fried beer battered tiger shrimp. They were huge, and looked like small lobster tails. Perfectly fried and the shrimp was moist on the inside. The walleye was pretty good as well. The pricing of the food was pretty decent as well. With drinks, apps, mains, and 20% tip, the total came to $275.00 for the six of us. A bit spendy? I thought it was a decent price to pay for a very good dinner for a special occasion. Well worth it, and I will definitely be back.

Shout out to her! For the food, we got their special which was the flame grilled steak and grilled walleye. They were delicious. I did not expect the portion to be that big considering it was $23 for the two meals. We also got their Mac Bites appetizer. Those were good as well.
