The Snug — Restaurant in Washburn

Was exploring the area when I came across The Snug and decided to give it a try after seeing they served food and remembering that I probably needed to eat at some point.

Walk in the door on a Sunday afternoon to find just a couple locals and two employees. Now, I am not a social person and typically just want to blend into a crowd when I'm out by myself so this much more intimate bar setting was not what I was looking for. Problem was, however, I had already entered and turning around to run away would just be MORE awkward, so it was time to just accept it and sit down. I was glad that I did.

Bartender (and I assume his wife/significant other) were both super nice and invited me right in despite my deer-in-headlights look. I was clearly the odd one out but it didn't take long not to feel like it. The other two patrons appeared to be locals but that by no means meant that I felt like I didn't belong. I figured why not double-down and be the only one eating too. I ordered the Bog Bird with a side of chips and both turned out to be wonderful.

Overall this was an unexpected gem and was definitely a highlight of my loaner-getaway weekend; my only regret was not being able to try more of the food so I'll just have to hope I get a chance...

Was in search of good fish. We found cozy, dimly lit, comfortable bar with an Irish theme. A handful of booths and tables, in which our family of four occupied a booth. Maybe just under a dozen tap beer options. All drink and food orders are placed at the bar. The food option for Friday was only the Walleye and homemade chips. Deliciously sliced potatoes kind of fried to perfection. The spray bottle of malt vinegar at the table is brilliant. Don't expect your food to come out fast, but expect it to be delicious. I went here based on good Google reviews, so continuing the trend. Definitely coming back. Patio...

Great local family run establishment. The service was topnotch. The food portions were more than filling and the flavors were great.

Had the Scottish egg with house made horseradish. The Bog Bird aka slow roasted turkey with cranberries and an amazing spicy peanut soup. Highly recommend if you're looking for a nice down to earth drink at the bar or some good ole home cooking in the booth. This husband and wife team truly know what they are doing.

Darts and a few other games in the back as well if you don't want to...
