A little place with that laid back, small-town bar and grill atmosphere. We came here with our 2 small kids. Staff was lovely when engaging with both us and the kids. The fries/tots were too crispy for our liking and the burgers were average. We would definitely come back though as it was a good customer service experience.Kid-friendliness: Kids definitely felt welcome here!

Waited 2 hours for a meal for my wife, 14 year old son, and 4 year old daughter. It came our worse then any dog food I've put in a dish on the floor. Refused to pay. Waitress said she would comp my fish but would have to pay for the potatoe I took a bite of. We walked out on out meal..we left $100 for drinks and a tip. Bartender..John miller..called the cops. Our tab was paid. Only reason I'd leave one star is because my daughter won a prize in the claw machine and she left happy but hungry.

Service is ok but the food isn't great. Ordered a swiss and blue cheese burger with boneless wings and the waitress comes back 5 min later saying the wings are discontinued... So I got the breaded mushrooms instead. The mushrooms come out and they are good but they served it with a cold cheese wiz sauce ( maybe they ran out of marinara noticed someone got mozzarella sticks and it came with a white dipping sauce.) When the burger came out I didn't taste any blue cheese so the waitress brought out a cup for me and I noticed the blue cheese isn't blue cheese.. after eating some of the fries I noticed the ones near the bottom are soggy because the burger came with pickles and the chef thought it was a good idea to hide them under the fries. For a place with craft beers on tap the food was very underwhelming.

I had the Bleu cheese Swiss burger and my fiancée had the turkey melt special. Good food, excellent service.

I had a very pleasant experience coming into Fish Tales. I was leery about going somewhere new by myself, into a place where I didn't know anyone, but Denny the bartender couldn't have been a nicer person and made me feel comfortable immediately. Very friendly and above and beyond with his customer service. It didn't take me long before I was visiting with the other patrons (also friendly) and having a really good time. Thanks for being awesome.Parking: No problem finding a parking spot as the avaliablity is spacious for big and small vehicles. I even had a spot close to the door.

The staff. The ownership. The food. Everything here is phenomenal.As a newbie to Babbitt (and to America as a whole!) this place makes me feel welcomed. Cared for. And serves amazing food. Their chicken wings are SO good! And the quesadilla is *chef’s kiss*Thank you to everyone at this tavern! 💕Edit: Went back in tonight and had the pizza. So delicious!!! If you like a great thin crust pizza with amazing cheesy goodness you will love it too!!!!!

Charming and familiar like the former Tank's Bar, I found Fish Tales inviting and warm with a new vibe of what's to come. Decent choice of menu, excellent selection of beer. I can't wait to see how you do it next! We''ll be back!Kid-friendliness: Great place that feels safe for older kids, this is the familiar atmosphere that most common sense people grew up in

Service was excellent- very attentive and flexible since we had kids.Unfortunately, they were under new management and changing out the menu so the menu was limited to what we could get - the food was... not great. Appreciate not being wasteful bringing in a new menu. Just not what we were hoping for after a long day of riding. Example: Taco salad was choped salad (huge chuncks) hamburger without seasoning. 4 olives. Side of fries, maybe 10-15.

Nice place for get togethers! A benefit was held at Tanks bar last weekend. Although there were many people at Tanks, everyone seemed be comfortable in their space. The service was excellent and the onion rings and sloppy joes were very good, along with a wide variety of bottled beer. For such a large crowd of people, the staff handled it well with no long waits for food or drinks. I would definitely schedule a party or large get together there.

Stopped by here Saturday afternoon right at "Happy Hour" with an ATV ride group for a drink and a small bite to eat. Bartender was the only one working out front and wasn't sure what was going on saying she was new. Definitely needed a second person helping her out, as she was also working the attached liquor store all by herself. Not blaming the bartender as the owner/manager should be a bit more involved. Not a good experience at all.

After 45 minutes we were told our order wasn’t given to the kitchen. The prime rib in my sandwich was all gristle, completely inedible. Never will I return.

Rude owner that lets employees treat customers terribly and you will end up with food poisoning. Employees also harass other employees and get away with it. Also I was here before covid shut everything down. It’s not just some bogus review.

Always the best service from the staff. The cooks know how to prepare your food just the way you like it and it's brought out to your table piping hot!

It was very helpful that there's a liqour store inside the bar. We were looking for one and it was not on google. The staff was also very friendly.
