If you're doing a copper country cruise, this is a must stop. A classic community bar that's clearly been well loved for decades. To be perfectly clear, this isn't a swanky stop, it's a bit rough around the edges. That said, the service was great and the cocktails were surprisingly well crafted. Take a moment to look around the building at the historic photos and take in the t-shirts with a Rye twist on the name of the place.

Was here during a weekday afternoon so it was pretty quiet. Loved getting out of the rain with a Moscow mule. Jokes aside it was a nice place. Looked like it used to be an old schoolhouse or church.

Just ok. Definitely not my favorite stop during our trip. Very overpriced for the quality of food, so if you’d going to visit, just do it for the bar and get lunch or dinner elsewhere. It was busy, but I felt like just ordering was asking too much from the bartender which made it feel uninviting from the start. There’s all sorts of signs around the bar essentially discouraging any big groups, which just seems weird for a snowmobiling stop when most travel in groups. Cost $9.50 for 4 fried pickle spears for an appetizer and came out without any dipping sauce. Place could have so much potential, but it was lack luster, hope they make some changes!
