The first time we were ever in this restaurant was to play Bingo at the town festival. We won and had a good time. We have been back since then and have found the owner and the wait staff to be very friendly, smile and welcoming. The food is good and the prices reasonable. You never know what you will find at a town festival. We found a good restaurant. We are so happy you enjoyed coming to see us in Freeport. In summer we have a patio you can stop in and have a drink and dinner.

The actual physical building ia very small. But there are a few tables for dining in. The bathrooms were neat and clean, and the service was great. Employees were courteous and helpful. The menu was all Subway. Quality food, we enjoyed it. Would recommend

My husband I visit Fisher's Club once every summer. It's such a treat to have dinner in such a nostalgic Minnesota "lake-side" venue. It's a very laid back community with friendly wait-staff, excellent "up North" summertime food. We especially enjoy the walleye dinner and famous homemade strawberry shortcake for dessert.
5. The Landing

this is hot spot for lots of the locals and is usually very busy. If you like tacos, fried chicken then go they usually have a daily special so call ahead. folks don't come here for gourmet food. they come for large quantities of country food.

Best breakfast ever
Reviewed By NickNick615
My family often will dine in or utilize their takeout out method and have never been disappointed with their food. It is very reasonably priced and the portions are just right! The staff is always personable and quite friendly!My only suggestion is some sort of customer reward program for the frequent visitors!
3. Chester Fried Chicken
Reviewed By kawidd
The best southern style fried chicken. Now the oasis and has station has many self-service items including a fun soft drink machine, a Caribou kiosk ($1.40 for a double espresso), a Kemp's ice cream counter and Three Peppers (nice Tex-Mex choices). Friendliest people you will ever know too. There is also a smoothie and shake self-service place. Not bad for a small town gas staton. My absolute favorite I-94 stop for all your needs. I even got Neosporan there. All things to all people. The former A&W and Subway is across the street in their new digs. I don't miss them.
2. Shady's Hometown Tavern and Events Center
Reviewed By OddEater
Had the buffet with roast beef, chicken, mashed potatoes, dressing, corn, and gravy. I think there was salad, but we pigged out on the most tender beef and chicken ever. This is some of the best food ever in a small town. Nothing fancy, just a good feed.

I cannot begin to tell you how delightful the food the hospitality and the drinks are there. I stopped in accidentally with my wife and we have been there forever in Albany area. It was so delightfu,l this year we couldn't afford a Mexican trip which we usually go two to three times a year. Who wants to leave now? I go to Mexico for the food and the drinks, now I only have to drive 10 miles away. Nachos we're awesome because everything is made with a smoker, smoked means Minnesota, smoked means Alabama, smoked means everything tasty I can't wait to go back again. The drinks may seem highin price to you, but when you see fresh fruit and all how they make them, its a drop in the bucket.One here isad good as five and any other bar. I rest my case, I will be back again and again and again. I've told people I went there the first time, too many people whom don't know, said (hey oh my God it's unbelievable this place is going to be huge)just make sure I get a spot!
