    Ordinarily I would not build my dinner menu on the side of pickles. But this is St Cloud MN and these are Homemade Dill Pickles. So bring on the Crispy Cheddar Skirt Burger and the Homemade salt and vinegar chips and the Scottish Ale. All very good and the chips have a real vinegar kick and they are thin and crisp. Next time I may try the Gorgonzola and Asian pear salad which looks great on the page. But I may just start with these pickles again. Service is human and we sat outside and enjoyed the evening. Go! Have the pickles!!

    Went with my fam of 5 and had great service, great drinks and amazing food!! I love food and consider myself a foodie! Went here because of the pics on Google and was not dissatisfied. I got the pb &jj burger along with the crab wonton and cheese curds... big hit! The burger was delicious and weird! So tasty! My husband is from Chicago and loves Italian beefs and is so picky..... he loved his beef! Tasty bacon! And great wings!!!!! Will be back for sure!

    Cool bar in the bottom of a downtown St Cloud building. Home to the Hairy Buffalo drink and all of its varieties. Good selection of local beer and friendly staff.

    This place is a amazing with a great vibe. That is not the best part, I had the lobster stuffed mushrooms, WoW. Flavor explosion in the mouth. Then I had the Gouda fondue burger with a side salad. Who brags about a side salad, it was amazingly fresh and flavorful! To cap off the best tasting burger ever, no need to anything but put it in your mouth and enjoy, damn the Gouda fondue burger was amazing!!!

    The food was great. The drinks were awesome. Their signature drink was a trifecta.

    Went here today for a quick bite to eat. I've been here before and the food is always awesome. Today I had the Cubano and my gf had there BBQ pulled pork burger that comes with cheese curds on it. Well, when it came out, it was just a bacon cheese burger. We asked our waitress (who was super nice) where the pulled pork and cheese curds were on it? She apologized and brought it back to the kitchen. 5 minutes later she came back out and nothing had changed with the burger. The burger still looked good and we don't like to be those people who complain, so we just took it for what it was. My gf said the burger was awesome, it just wasn't what she ordered. My Cubano and our chicken wings were also super good. Again the waitress/bartender was super nice and friendly, and besides the mix up, took good care of us. Atmosphere is cool as the building itself is a site to see. We will definitely be going back here again.

    We have not had service and food this good in a LONG time!! Skyler was a great waiter, upbeat, attentive and you could tell he enjoys his job. In fact- all of the employees seemed to love working here! I don’t know what your secret is, but you’re definitely doing it right. If you’re looking for really great food and exceptional service- you’ve got to go to MCs. We highly recommend the chicken caprese sandwich! It was cooked to perfection. Great job MCs! We’ll definitely be back!!

    Food was VERY good! We had a burger and salad and I would go back for the food. PB&J burger looks delicious to try. Our server seemed a bit absent, even though we were one of the only tables.

    Such an amazing bar. The decor was awesome, staff was friendly and beer was cold.

  • 5/5 Hot Eats and Cool Reads (Hot Eats and Cool R. 8 months ago on Google
    One of my absolute favorite places to eat in St. Cloud! The weekly specials are always unique and delicious. It's located in the lower level of an old building and has just a great vibe!

    Got there after the lunch rush. Plenty of tables. Very nice wait staff. She was running around waiting on everyone and bartending but was timely. Decent tap beer list. Good mix of local and domestic. I had the rueben. It was what it should be. Good fries. Their homemade pickles are really great.

    Bartender was good but the waitress has a lot to learn about how to answer questions about menu items. When asked to clarify what exactly was jam bacon was her response was "just what it sounds like". We asked a follow up question and she just repeated her answer. I think she is young but needs to know how to deal with customers. Love their Buffalo drinks.

    Absolutely like a cheers bar! After one visit everyone knew our names and what we drank. Staff and customers were so welcoming, friendly, and fun! Tried the lobster stuffed mushroom appetizer, cheese curds, and the lobster roll and it was all so good! Great place for starting your day with a bloody mary, catching a few afternoon drinks, or dinner and throwing darts all night. I wish this bar was down the street from me like it is to our friend who brought us here but we are from out of state. If we go back to Minnesota we will definitely be visiting here again. We already miss our new friends we made while visiting St. Cloud.

    Jordan the bartender was awesome! If your in Duluth, this is a awesome place. Cute underground restaurant/ bar. Had lobster stuffed mushrooms and Crab cakes! Both were phenomenal! Highly suggest! Lobster stuffed mushrooms were the best I have ever had!

  • 5/5 Erin M. 1 year ago on Google
    One of our favorite local spots to grab a bite. Atmosphere is cozy and service is usually great but the food steals the show! Everything we have ever tried has been scratch-made/hand crafted. The homemade soups, bahn-mi sandwich, lobster stuffed mushrooms and wontons are all incredible and some of our favorites. You can’t beat the food prices for the quality either! You won’t find any frozen or generic bar food here…highly recommend!

    So I went out for my birthday I was completely alone in a barroom full of people. They're known for their drink called the Harry Buffalo which they're all right I mean you're going to get tanks if you drink them I think they got a limit actually. Downtown St cloud is dying the whole town is just a shadow of what it used to be so now you got to kind of take what you can get when it comes to the bar scene I don't know Dempsey's done it was always a good place to go though. Typical bar food menu pretty good

    A hidden gem of an eatery in Downtown St. Cloud! Great atmosphere, food, and service! Home of the Hairy Buffalo and really great food.

  • 4/5 Elijah L. 2 years ago on Google
    Loved the food great drinks and atmosphere. Just know the bathrooms are very small stalls. But everything else is amazingly excellent just a little bit of a squeeze for a service dog handler.

  • 5/5 tim l. 1 year ago on Google
    i host trivia at MC's on Wed and Thurs nights, so i have a dog in this fight. Even so, the food is elevated from regular bar fare with frequently updated menu and interesting weekly specials.

  • 5/5 Peg W. 1 year ago on Google
    Had the Cubana and a Tropical Buffalo. It was perfect. Brought half the sandwich back for supper. The other half had the Gyro salad, cheese curds and a couple Hairy Buffalo. Great service!

  • 5/5 Luke H. 2 years ago on Google
    Just awesome! Stopped in for a drink and an appetizer. AMAZING lobster stuffed mushrooms! Great homemade pickles! And a nice whiskey seven, just a bit burnt, as any bar worth it's salt does. One of the best food and drink experiences I've had in St. Cloud so far.

  • 5/5 Jerod H. 2 years ago on Google
    We found this place on our way on a fishing trip to the Detroit Lakes area. Since finding the place anytime I find myself in St. Cloud it’s a must stop place! If you go I highly recommend trying a Hairy Buffalo.
