It's a great place to stop in Pepin. Great views, service, and food. We ordered the pretzels bits, 1/2 fried pickle spears, and the Curds Ahoy burger with Onion Rings. They use a nice light battery on their fried items, which is nice. I liked that you can order a full size of 8 pickle spears or a half order of 4. The curds ahoy Burger was wonderful. I really like the bang bang saise they have on it.

Fried pickle spears were awesome. Had the BBQ pork and club sandwiches. Both were great and came out quick. Had a bit of the cheeseburger off the kids menu and honestly, it was probably the best burger I've tasted from a kids menu thus far. Plenty of space to hang out indoors or outside. Will absolutely be back.Parking: Plenty of space to park right near the building. The dock also has roughly 8 spots, pending vessel size. Kid-friendliness: Several options on the kids menu. Great burgers too!

On the Mississippi River. Burgers, wraps, sandwiches and salads. Service was friendly and fast. Food was delicious. All three of us had the special BLT with fried egg and avocado on thick whole grain bread and a side of homemade chips or tater tots. It was a huge and filling lunch. Biggest, thickest, and best bacon ever on that sandwich not to mention there was plenty of it and the fried egg was done to perfection with just enough liquid gold but not so runny that we were messy.

My first time visiting this establishment, as I rode up on my bike I could tell I was in for a treat. This restaurant sat off the St Croix River, and it had a patio that overlooked the river. Mary was our server, she was friendly, kind, and very accommodating. I ordered the grilled chicken breast sandwich and a side of their homemade potato chips. The sandwich was delicious, cooked perfectly, and the homemade potato chips were a smash hit. The bathrooms were clean, I liked the decor, and the other patrons were very friendly. I love this little honeypot, looking forward to coming here again soon, thanks, Mary!!!

Although I wish they had more of a variety of all things pickles to choose from I can't complain about the veiws and the conversations, walks on the water and service. After a fun girls day, good conversations laughs, fun pictures on the giant chair and great lunch we headed back to the cities only to find out later I left my credit card! called the next day and the owner offered to mail it back to me free of charge and was so very thoughtful throughout the entire process, I didn't have to cancel my card and am looking forward to another road trip to make a stop at this great location on the water and thanking him in person someday! thank you pickle factory! also just a great town in general!

Amazing experience. Excellent food and friendly service. If you decide to go be sure to get a seat on the balcony (amazing view). The wait staff is efficient and friendly. We got our appetizers fast along with our drinks. Can't say enough about the positive vibe this place has. 5 stars highly recommend.

Touristy restaurant with pub food like Burgers, Sandwich’s, Wings, Cheese Curds, etc. lively crowd around the bar, especially with a football game going on among the many big screen TVsStaff was friendly and welcoming, my server Stacy was kind and quick, food tasted great! Ordered Cheese Curds (of course) and the Monterey Onion Burger per Stacy’s request, and loved it!It helps that this place is open later than most other restaurants in the area!

Very good food. Appetizers like the cheese curds, onion rings and fried pickles were excellent. Burgers were really tasty too. A great place for a quick bite and worth it too! Worth a stop in!

If you’re looking for a good patio, don’t be fooled. It is in a great location and nice atmosphere BUT you have to walk upstairs to get food and the bartender/server is RUDE! Want you on a limited menu(even though you have to get it yourself with a buzzer) you can’t bring salt, ketchup or any other condiments down stairs. Place has potential to be awesome but we won’t be back based on her service today. We will boat elsewhere.

Young server was very helpful and attentive.The kitchen got behind and wouldn't let the servers put in food orders, so she was working extra hard to keep us full on drinks, etc. This is the first time that I have seen the kitchen get behind like this, so still 5 stars. The food is consistently quality.Parking: There's more parking across the street/train tracks on the side away from the water.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu is goodWheelchair accessibility: Maybe from the back side of the building? Definitely for the outside seating area by the water...

Beautiful location on the water! Large parking lot. Inside decor is exposed wood, large windows, and lovely views of the Mississippi River and adjacent marina. There is an outside deck with seating overlooking the Minnesota bluffs and river. Busy place, so it took a while to get our food, which was very tasty. Wait staff was attentive and friendly, but busy! It probably didn't help that we were here on a beautiful, sunny June afternoon 😎

The food is good but the views of the bluffs and Lake Pepin are what really make this a stand out selection.

Worst service ever, was told it would be a 20-30 minute wait for a table as cooks were backed up in the kitchen ….although people arriving after us at the Bar were being served in record time . waited for a table for over a hour, with several empty tables throughout the seating area and outside patio. Left and went to another establishment in town “Captain’s Legacy’’ Service and food was amazing …

We were so disappointed. When we got there, we were given menus and told to sit wherever we wanted. We waited about 10 minutes and 2 women came in behind us and went to the patio. The waitress went out to the patio and took their order and when came back in she told she would be back in a few minutes. After about 5 more minutes we got up and left. We didn't even get offered water or drink order. Sorry, we won't go back there again
