    Solid burgers, and really good comfort food. The burgers have a great blend, and super juicy and flavorful. Highly recommend the homemade tots to go with one. The pot pie is super good too, always a hard choice.

    Service was mediocre. The salmon bowl and the Friday fish special was delicious.

    Good food and and good service !!! The service was fast and friendly, if you're in the area I recommend stopping in for a bite to eat or a drink !!! They have seating in the bar, or a nice sit down area with plenty of room for the whole family. They have a great patio seating area as well to enjoy the city views in the summer or winter. We had the chicken wings with honey saracha and a side Caesar salad. It was amazing.. Someone else had pizza flatbread and it looked amazing as well... They have tv's throughout the resultant and pull tabs in the bar area.. It's a great place to watch a game.. Lots of parking in the front of the restaurant. I stop here when I'm in the area and am never disappointed.. Love this place.. If you're in the area, definitely stop in and check it out.. You won't be disappointed..

    The food and dessert were great along with the waitress although things did go a little slow but I expect that that's the way it is at most restaurants these days.

    Huge space, so it rarely feels crowded. My wife ordered the Steakhouse Lucy, and she couldn't stop happy humming, it was so good. I had the Asian Pork Tacos and they were excellent! The staff was super friendly, and attentive.

    Had the Stack of High sandwich with homemade fries. Comes with ketchup, BBQ & spicy sweet mustard sauces. Ridiculously good. Made in their own smoker. Wash it down with a blueberry lemonade. Ok. I'm ready for a nap.

    This is a prime dinner spot for consistent, tasty food. The service here is always fast and the employees are very kind. I usually get the amazing Beer Cheese Juicy Lucy but opted for a Taco Salad and it was delicious! It left me full and pleased. Worth every penny & I recommend others try it too! Overall the other food available is very good as well, try the Loaded Beer Cheese Potato Skins out for an appetizer. Crooked Pint does not dissapoint, come check it out!

    Was here on tuesday night There was hardly anybody in there. There was 2 hostess took 15 minutes to figure out where to sit me my girlfriend and three-year-old son. And then they put us in the back room where everybody's screaming and shouting. You couldn't even hear the waitress talking and we only seen the waitress 2 times once to take order and then for the check. Management said they were gonna send a gift card and never did

    We went to a group gathering on Saturday night. We arrived early and sat at a table by the bar. Our waitress Jessica was awesome, she made sure everyone had fresh drinks and came over as more people showed up. When we got into the room our waiter Jeremy took orders. I had ordered a taco salad (delicious) and chicken wings extra crispy. The wings came out boneless I asked him to exchange them for the correct order and he said all he could do is give me 5$ off. If he doesn't understand what a customer wants he should ask traditional or boneless. Will we come back? I'm not sure, I feel they should have corrected the order.

    We went at a slow time, a little before 9 on a Tuesday (though it seems they were busier before as dirty dishes piled on several of the tables), and was seated right away... at a dirty table. When the waitress finally came over had to ask to have the table cleaned. Barely saw our waitress, had to ask the bartender to tell her we were ready to order. The food, so-so, skimpy on the cheese curds, and would not order the same thing for the entrees (barbacoa tacos and steak house lucy which never rested before putting on the bun so the bottom bun was red (blood) and soggy). Did have a nice selection on tap, and the bartender seemed friendly with some of the people at the bar.

    Went for beer and burgers Juicy Lucy burgers were fantastic! Had brownie ala mode dessert too! (No picture as we ate/shared it too quickly). Tap beer selection is good. Ate at bar/Service was great!

    Food was slow to come out, and they forgot our fries and forgot again after we reminded them. They appeared to be short staffed. The food was good, though. I will give them another chance.

    Crooked Pint Ale House in Maplewood is a great spot for some good beer, juicy lucys and watching sports. The star of the show is definitely their juicy lucys, which are cooked to perfection and always juicy on the inside. The variety of beer options is impressive, with plenty of local and national craft beers to choose from. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, with plenty of TVs to catch the latest game. It's the perfect spot to hang out with friends, enjoy some great food and drinks, and catch up on the latest sports action. Overall, a must-visit spot for any beer and burger lover.

    We love this place. Solid cocktails and good selection of beers. The food is great and hits the spot when you’re craving some comfort food. Staff is friendly and reliable. Been here twice and had a great experience both times. We will keep coming back!

    I had the bourbon cranberry chicken salad (withheld blue cheese and vandalia dressing) and instead requested a vinaigrette dressing....LOVED the salad. I can't say enough GOOD things about OUR bartender/waiter, James R. He was the best. Only negative: I was freezing sitting under the air vent in the bar. .

    Love this place! Great food, great atmosphere and the service has always been, you guessed it… GREAT! LOVE that they offer the shuttle to the Xcel events for only $5. We go eat before an event, ride the shuttle and get dropped off at front door. Afterwards we simply walk to the shuttle and get dropped back off at the restaurant. So convenient!

    Everything I've ordered has been incredibly tasty. Their portions are very generous considering all of the restaurants around here seem to skimp on everything. Highly recommend for comfort food :)

    We ate at the Crooked Pint Ale before going to Joe Bonamassa Saturday Night. We were very pleased with this restaurant, I had a salmon protein bowl that was very good and my husband had a French dip and fry’s and he loved it and there was plenty of food in both of our orders. The restaurant staff were very professional and friendly. Jessica F our server did an excellent job. Also, the restaurant was very clean and staffed appropriately. I would recommend this restaurant and we will eat there again soon.

    Room for improvement, our server didn't come back as often as we hoped so sat without drinks for awhile, but still friendly and enjoyable. Good food! Love the idea of a shuttle bus to Wild games!!

    We used the Maplewood Event Center for our wedding rehearsal dinner and it was SO great!!! Sarah was super easy to communicate with, the taco bar tasted great and they were easy to work with for us to get in early to set up!! Everyone really enjoyed it and loved the ability to stay afterward and enjoy the bar area upstairs after! Our venue was downtown St. Paul and it was super easy for guests to get to from there (less than 10 min) Would highly recommend!

    Had a medium sized group, the apps were wonderful and beautifully plated. OMG those crab Rangoon fries!! Everyone was very pleased with their meal as well and the drinks were well done. From Mexico With Love was just the flavor combo I hoped it would be!

    The reviews we read weren't the best,but the location was convenient in a pinch..We were very pleased with our meals. Very good Taco salad. Our server was Very friendly too.Wait time,for salads was abit long..and the Kid seating us,didn't really have his act together-but,he figured he might be in training. Comfortable & casual atmosphere..not too loud of music or sports..Id definitely go back

    The food is good (pub fare) and the drinks are decent, the service for the most part is great but sometimes slow, which I can understand as everyone is short-staffed, overall no complaints here. I did have a complaint with their rewards system, but they readily corrected it. Love the neighborhood feel to this place.

    Have been hear many times for lunch meetings with work. It's a good place, but nothing that wows me for sure. Have never been disappointed, but never extremely impressed. An a more positive note service is usually quite good which can always make a so-so visit better in my memory which for me is good because you will always remember the bad experiences.

  • 3/5 Michael T. 2 years ago on Google
    We had our bowling banquet there,we were down stairs in one fo the banquet rooms. I didn't get a chance to see the upper area of the place. I can say that the room we were in just seemed like your average dinning hall. The food was good my fiancee really liked her meal(chicken with some kind of sauce over it ) I had steak, very good as well. I just wish I could of checked out the upstairs area. Had a good time 😊.

    Edit for visit on 1/13/23 What happened to the service? The deal. We had a large party, 22 people I think. We called a few days ahead to the restaurant knew we were coming. Our waitress only took orders and brought out items one person at a time. Literally. Two people ask for water. She brought out one water then maybe if we were lucky five minutes later the other water comes out. Food was the same except sometimes other staff delivered the food. All one plate at a time. I guess it's good we were not planning to say a prayer then start eating at the same time because we're coworkers not a family. But what the heck? One cup or plate at a time?! What happened to bringing out a pitcher of water for the table to top up our own water? It was very hard to get out waitress attention. She was serving a few tables next to us (maybe 3 other tables of 2 people each) and I know she could carry 2 cups of 2 plates at a time. It was weird. I get we had a big group but it was about half n half doctors and nurses with one baby (who did well thankfully). Usually a big group gets more attention because we literally needed our server to just be our server or send 2 people over for the large group. If you can't handle large groups that sucks. Taking away some points because it was comically bad to get one cup or one plate at a time over an hour or whatever it was. Original review below: Really excellent food and I've had really good customer service. It can get loud and busy during peak dinner time, so if you're concerned about crowds coming in early during the happy hour is a lot calmer. They seem to be good for sports crowds - from the chanting when real dinner started is my best guess. I still don't like a full restaurant like the before times; so I've left after happy hour or I can carry out an online order. One big con is the stairs to get in the front door. A bit scary in winter. The stairs are well kept but if anyone has mobility concerns you can't use the front door.
