The Broken Paddle Coffee Roastery and Kitchen

We arrived at 5 miutes to noon for lunch. There appeared to be only one staff and we shortly realized that the restaurant was not prepared for lunch..Our mistake was ordering instead of leaving. The salad came with only half of the ingredients listed on the menu and the French Fries were cold. It was 50 minutes after we arrived. The hostess apologized, returned with a correct salad and offered a desert or discount. We received neither when the bill came. Our tip was minimal and it is unlikely we will return..

What a surprise, a great place to stop for excellent food. The salads are amazing but the pizza is a must, especially the coffee crusted steak pizza, give it a try. Also the locally brewed beer are a must.

My husband and I recently had brunch at this restaurant and I couldn't resist ordering the quiche when the waitress mentioned it. I have always loved quiche but find it difficult to find a good one. This quiche was amazing - fluffy and delicious crust. I opted for a side of greens with a simple dressing, which was fresh and tasty. My husband chose soup, salad, and a large piece of bread. He mentioned that the soup was thick and delicious. I have dined at this restaurant a few times before and have never been disappointed. The pizza, with its thin crust, was also quite tasty. The service was quick, efficient, and friendly.

My wife, a few friends, and I went to the restaurant the other day. My wife and I were the first to arrive and we requested a table for 6. We were shown where to sit. When the server approached us, there was no greeting, just a quick question about whether we wanted menus. We said yes, and she brought us two menus. When our friends arrived, they were not given menus. We ended up sharing. The service was very slow, so slow that we eventually had to ask another server who seemed more attentive to her tables for help. Thanks to her, we were able to finally get our drinks. It seemed like it was just our server who was not good, as the others appeared to be fine. The food was average, nothing special. Overall, we were not impressed and do not plan on returning.

On Friday evening we opted for dinner at The Broken Paddle before heading out on the lake to our island camp. Because it was lovely weather, we chose to eat outside.We only wanted a light supper--the soup and salad combo was perfect for me (I chose the chicken and wild rice soup and the mixed greens salad with cranberries and candied pecans) and my husband thoroughly enjoyed his mile-high burger and fries.Everything we've ever ordered here has been delicious! The cabin-style decor creates a great ambiance (indoors and outside) for dining with friends.
