Whistle Binkies On the Lake
Reviews
Great tap list, and great prices in general considering the quality & quantity of the tap beers - I've never seen taps that were more than $5, even for rare beers like Hopslam. High quality bar food as well with great burgers, salads and assorted appetizers (I usually get the chicken nachos - the jalapenos are extra hot!). I have never been disappointed in dozens of visits! Simply great.
Good food and less busy than the north location.
Such a great place! Love the huge menu & the beer selection is fantastic. I only wish there were hammocks down by the lake in the summer! Keep doing what you're doing!
As a local this is one of my favorites, especially in the summer. Great pub food (think Hard Rock cafe), largest beer selection in Rochester, and a more fun, upper class than the dingy bars without being at all pretentious. The lake and lawn chairs are also awesome and I even joined the volleyball league! I gave the service a frowny face only because I have on occassion had to wait a long time for a drink at the bar or for my waitress to come around, but for as busy as they are it's not unreasonable. Just could be improved.
The wait staff was very friendly, the food was good, the beer selection was better and we all had a great time. When we were there they had a fishing contest going on, a sand volley ball game and a hot air balloon was being filled and took off . . . quite a site for a February in MN. Wish we had something comparable in Mankato.
