    My husband and I make it tripped up from Waterloo, IN all the time to willows The waitresses have been. kind, fast and immediate. We sit outside if the weather permitting by the water is pleasant. We have a service dogs, but usually we keep them in the truck with the air running. Sometimes we sit under the table with them. They're well behaved. But mindful of others eating dinner. The food is outstanding. Depends on what you like. I like their breaded pickles and their port chips. They're big buffalo hamburger is outstanding We can't get it all in one serving down. You have to take it home. My husband loves her chicken strips. The place is always clean. The flowers in the balcony on the patio or pegola are wonderful. The places delightful, easy parking easy to get to. trip dairy. I promise you'll love it. It's a five star restaurant to me. Not overpriced.

    We walked in and could tell this was a locals place. We were offered to sit wherever we wanted, so we sat at the bar. Everyone was friendly. Our order was taken quickly. our food was good. We ate it all :)

    Good food with friendly service. I would recommend this place for lunch or dinner. There is limited seating so I would get there early.

    Burger was dry but pulled pork was good. Service was friendly and quick. Sat outside and was great on a nice spring day.

    The Bent Prop Pub is a great little restaurant located right on Coldwater Lake. It has ample…read moreparking across the street and a boat dock that can accommodate ~6-7 boats for lake access. We dined upstairs (Pub on lower level) and had some excellent food. The Garlic Breaded Cheese Curds are amazing (cubed cheese) and recommend either/or Marinara and Ranch. The Pretzel was also very good, but the standout was the bar cheese sauce, which appears more of a creamy fondue than straight cheese wiz and was very flavorful. Main dishes were the Pollock Fish Basket with Fries, Chicken Quesadilla with Lime Rice and the Steak Bites App with a side of Broccoli. Everything was very good,l and the food was hot and service super fast. Staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable and dining right on the lake is always a plus. Plus we didn't have a wait arriving at 6:30ish on a Saturday evening. Bent Prop Pub earned a five star review due to its food, ambiance, staff and being a nice little gem of a restaurant and pub tucked away in a sleepy section of the Eastern shore of Coldwater Lake. Would definitely go back when we are back up in the area.

    Awesome ambiance! This is right on the water. If you go downstairs you can sit outside in the…read morescreened section looking right at the lake. Or you can choose to sit inside. The food was good! For our appetizer, We got the Prop Bites (Cheese Curds) they were good but quite salty. My husband and I both got the Grouper strips. They were really good. The breading was a little thicker than we like but it was good, as were their chips and coleslaw. Anna was great! The service was very quick! We had our apps within 5 minutes! Our meals came shortly after! Our server was very attentive too!
