We visited on a Friday night. To our surprise we hung out after our meal and played musical bingo and some pull tabs.I ordered a burger, waffle fries and their giant pretzel. Hands down the best giant pretzel I have had to date!YouTube @calicoadventuresKid-friendliness: There is a separate play room with a few toys for kids.

This was our first time here. It consists of a bar, a coffee shop and a boutique. We went here for the food and coffee part of it. We ended up getting the turkey bacon panini, boom boom shrimp and I had the dueling house burger. The food was good. Nothing I would crave or tell my friends “I had the best_________ here” but was good. We got there before “table staff hours” began (which I thought was kinda weird”, so we had to grab our own menus and order up at the till. There is quite a few things on the menu that sounded good, so I will probably be back. Price for food were very affordable.This is a new facility and the atmosphere is really nice! There is outdoor seating available as well. The staff seemed nice and willing to help when asked questions. I did walk through the “boutique” and it was a lot of clothing with a lot of brewing themed clothing.

A full fledged coffee shop that doubles as a beer bar??! Nice! The cappuccino was done well, feel like a medium or a large? You’ll get the proportional amount of espresso! Not a common thing but it’s great to see. Staff was super friendly. Espresso was aromatic and just the right bitter. I’ll need to check out the beer later but the tap mix looked good.

I have had their chicken-wild rice soup a couple of times, it’s excellent! I have ordered coffee (the Turtle) via the drive-through in early morning and wow! Excellent! I very much enjoy the Panini’s, they’re very tasty. The staff here is the friendliest and they make dining a fun experience. The atmosphere is totally cool, what an amazing place! I’ll continue to stop in and enjoy all that this place has to offer!! Thank you for being in Becker!Kid-friendliness: They welcome kids and the kid I bring loves the place! There’s a boutique that is attached that has kid treats!

Dueling brews is absolutely fantastic. My family and I have eaten and got coffee here multiple times and have never been disappointed. The food is always delicious, the service is always great, the atmosphere is relaxing and inviting, and the menu has just enough items where there's enough variety, but it's not overwhelming.We personally love this place and will continue to come here.

Cutest little niche I've ever seen. Do you want coffee while he gets a beer? This is your place! The owner is behind the bar and gives you a great personal experience with both conversation and recommendations. The boutique has tons of cute, obviously hand-picked items, and the drinks are amazing.This is the perfect addition to small town Becker!

My main stop here is just for coffee but it is always amazing!! I honestly think their coffee is better than bigger names and their range for Decaf is another major reason I love this place. Just stopped in again for 'The Daisy' and then for the first time stepped over to the Brewtique and that was just a fun experience! Some really cute things!! The service is always so friendly here I really encourage anyone who hasn't stopped before to pop in and try something!

Absolutely love this coffee place!! There iced coffee are AMAZING! And that word doesn't even describe how AMAZING it is!! The staff in the mornings are super friendly and love to hear customer feedback. If you have a chance, you have to try a French toast bagel (toasted)! So fluffy and fresh. This town definitely needed a place like this. Today I was able to try a special- strawberries and cream cold brew...... oh goodness! No words to describe the epic goodness of this coffee... and I don't like fruity coffee!!!!

I want to first start out by saying, I love this place, but today was not my favorite. Ordered food to-go online. Waited 25 min for it to be made, then went inside to pick up. It was 2:30pm and the poor woman at the counter was swamped and by herself and a line of customers AND a drive thru window to tend to! (I overheard there must have been a concert today) The bartender was doing his thing and no other staff around. I wasn't sure where to stand to ask for my order, as I didn't want to wait in line. So when I could, I asked her where I should go to get my order, she took my info but then had to help more customers. In the end, I could have waited in line because it took til she got through most of her customers before she could go grab my food. She apologized, but it was a formality at best. Got my food and it wasn't correct; they missed the instructions to remove ingredients. Oh well. All in all, I waited 45-50 min total to get my order. Again, I have been here a few times and had a pretty good experience but this could be improved upon. It was busy, which is amazing and I am happy for them, being fairly new. Maybe put up a sign of where to go to pick up online orders and maybe make that process quicker even when you have a line of customers. Can the staff at the Brewtique help? I also saw a few confused customers who weren't sure how counter service works, so maybe some more signs at the tables for those people as well. The small sign at the front door probably gets missed.

Just stopped in today with my sister and our kids. We absolutely loved the aesthetic atmosphere!! I think we will have to make this our new regular hang out. The people were great as was the quality of product and service. Thank you for making such a wonderful place for many to enjoy!Kid-friendliness: They have a kids play room, and kid friendly drinks.

I’ve been there a couple times specifically for coffee, and I’ve been disappointed in the product every time. The latte I order tastes burnt when I got it, and the people I went with said the same thing. It was around 12-3pm when we went.The atmosphere is great. It was fun to sit in there and play cards and just relax.I would love to go here more often because it’s local, but I just can’t put up with that poor of coffee. Until they fix their burnt coffee, I will continue to get gas station or caribou coffee.

Great food, we had the dill cheese cubes, a flatbread, and the Mac and cheese. Everything was very good. The service could improve. Maybe it was due to being the middle of a Saturday afternoon, nonetheless, our server only returned once to see if we need beverages, long after they had been empty. We also grabbed a coffee for the road and they were tasty as well. The concept of coffee shop and bar was a new one for us, but actually a great little stop.

I heard that Ember Coffee had reached out to you to use their coffee products. I think that would be a huge upgrade to the coffee that you currently use. I've had the reuben panini multiple times, and the meat has been just between cold and lukewarm, never hot.I still love your place.

Always an amazing experience. The only thing that I can complain about it is that sometimes we don't know if we have to wait to be served or if we have to go to the front to put in orders. Sometimes there's a server, other times there aren't. It can be a little confusing, but other than that I love coming here! Their iced Chai tea latte is to DIE FOR!*Update: They have improved SO much and I honestly don't have any complaints. They're so involved in the community so they will hold fun events or make their own specials for different events happening in town. They've done such an amazing job and I'm happy to be a loyal supporter of Dueling Brews. I can't wait to see what they add/do next!Dietary restrictions: They have gluten free options.Kid-friendliness: They have a cute little kids room where they can play.Wheelchair accessibility: You should be able to get in/out without any issues.

My niece and I drove out to Becker for their loaded mimosa special (they don't have them on the menu all of the time). Nice space, good service, great people. I enjoyed the loaded mimosa. There was so much on the mimosa skewers (one skewer was fruit, one was charcuterie, and one was dessert) that I didn't end up ordering a meal. So, I'm looking forward to another visit so I can try the food. I did also get a mocha for the drive home and that was really tasty as well.

This has been my 2nd time going to dueling brew and I’m disappointed with this place. My coffee the 1st time was great, 2nd time it tasted like watered down milk. However both times I’ve ordered food I’ve been disappointed. Already having to wait 5-10 min for coffee then they forget to heat up my food, so I have to wait even longer. At least they are friendly.

the staff here is amazing. such kind friendly attentive people. the atmosphere is nice, local modern if you will. the food is good, the burgers needed more meat to it though, the patty was drowning in condiments so you hardly tasted it which is a bummer because the flavors are good. the duck wontons were incredible. the boom boom shrimp is really good but its more like a small plate or appetizer vs a meal. the drinks were good too. we will be back. its good here. you should check it out

I’ve dined in a couple times now, and although I feel the food is great, the service not so much. I didn’t see the sign that says to order at the counter, so after a long wait and then finding the sign I did just that, but was disappointed that of all the employees walking around, not one of them clued us in or made the slightest gesture to guide us on the table service times. Even after ordering I wasn’t sure if I had to go get my food or if would be brought out to our table. I guess it’s confusing to go to a sit down establishment but not be served. I get it, but I feel like there should be some kind of engaging from the staff. Food was great!
