Curley's On Cotton Lake Reviews
Great view of the lake. Good options for beer on tap, for a lakes country bar. The wings are great. This place has really shaped up over the years. If there was a black bean burger on the menu so my vegetarian family members could eat here, they'd get more of my business and I'd give it another star.
Disregard any negative review. Those people are tourists. I've been going for years and it is always the true Minnesota experience. Friendly staff and great food. I have nothing to complain about. If you let one bad review from a tourist to sway your opinion maybe lake life doesn't suit you.
Great local bar and grill with attentive servers. Sarah did an amazing job taking care of not only us, but our table next to us. My dad and I had the Walleye which was cooked to perfection which we could barely finish as the serving size was huge. Really great experience as this was my first time visiting this place right on Cotton Lake. Great views, great food and great service! You cannot ask for more than that! Take time to go out of your way and visit Curley's. You won't be disappointed.
This place is popular with the locals as evidenced by the full parking lot between beach and hunting seasons. The place has very high ceilings with taxidermy and t-shirts for sale. The restrooms, tables, ceiling, etc. Is super clean. It's a pub menu with burgers, sandwiches and salads. The fries were great when ordered extra crispy. There is a variety of beers, but the Coors light seemed to be colder than the specialty beers, but they come in a frosted honest pint. Also, beware of the the uneven floors. Now that you have been warned, they are easily navigated.
