Stopped by today while driving to get a chai. It was SO YUMMY (not too sweet and not Tazo chai-yuck at Starbucks). The bakery was tempting as was the artisan ice cream, but I resisted those. Enjoyed looking at art while they made my drink....MoreThank you for stopping and for your kind review. We make our own chai as well as chocolate and caramel. We do not serve anything with corn syrup! Try the food menu next time.

The Rustic Inn Cafe

Reviewed By cl0wnbaby - Minneapolis, Minnesota

This place is great! Can't believe it doesn't have a solid five star review. The smoked trout sandwich was very tasty, and the burger was perfect. Great pie, too! (We tried the North Shore Berry Crunch). We stop here on every trip to the North Shore.

Louise's Place

Description: Louise has always loved to feed people, starting with her own family. She understands that good memories, and warm friendships are often anchored to sharing food together. So, starting a restaurant 15 years ago, where friends and family could gather, was a natural. What makes Louise’s Place unique is her personal blend of quality, fresh ingredients and attention to making your order just the way you like it.Turn down to the Big Lake where Louise’s Place looks out at Agate Bay.

We stopped into Louise's for a quick to-go lunch on our way north from Duluth. The location is unique, but in a good way! It's homey, well-maintained, and efficient. The food was good. I chose a ham sandwich on cranberry wheat bread. What a treat! The bread was amazing. On any stop through Two Harbors I'd recommend a stop for a lunch or bakery treat.

We stopped here while birding in the area and enjoyed our lunch. The cheese curd appetizer was really great, as was the chicken sandwich and fries that I had. Service was quick and friendly. Small place but no wait when we were there. Breakfast menu looked great but didn’t try anything in it.

I planned an hour long casual morning meeting at the Mocha Moose - I had left home without eating, so I ordered the "breakfast smoothie " - and I couldn't resist the "chocolate moose track " cookie - I was absolutely nourished for a busy day!

Black Wood's Bar & Grill

Reviewed By deroche2008 - Shoreview, Minnesota

the title attention to detail because asparagus was bitter. Why the nuts that were used in the meal were expired. In the past I have had good experience with this restaurant. Currently I would recommend the Vanilla Bean. I go up to Two harbors twice to three times a year

Northshore Pizza is wonderful with a great hand tossed crust and quality toppings including a variety of choices on the menu. We ordered take out pizza and picked it up for our large group. Allow enough time for a large order. It was hot and ready when they said it would be. We were very pleased.
