Crooked Lake Cafe & Bistro

this place is simply the best food in the entire area! I’ve now had the breakfast, lunch, and takeout pizza and Brian does not disappoint. You will not leave hungry.

Perfect local place to grab a bite to eat, fresh to order, awesome service and the food is delicious. Burger was perfectly done and huge portion! We will be back!

There were 4 adults in our party. We walked in at 10:30 on Thursday morning, place was empty. We were greeted right away. The staff was very friendly and our waiter had some hustle! One of us ordered decaf coffee and he said it would be a few minutes because they had to make some. They were eager to please which was nice. The food took about 20 minutes and as we waited four more tables filled up. The food was presented well and tasted great. We all had a different breakfast on the menu. Everyone agreed we should come back. Highly recommend!

Been there half dozen times. I feel like kinda family. Waitresses little sisters and cook , chef, uncle 😋. I will keep going there! Friday a matter of fact!!

We had breakfast at the Crooked Lake Cafe and it was great. The food was fresh and hot and was high quality. We have been coming to Outing MN for over 40 years and it’s great to see a good cafe back in town. It was definitely a step above all of the other restaurants we have tried over the years. The menu had a great variety of items to try and everyone in our party enjoyed what they had. The owner was very friendly and the service was great. Looking forward to coming back!

I live in the breezy crosslake area and this place has some of the best food I’ve ever had

Food was phenomenal. Staff was very friendly and speedy. My 2yr old son really enjoyed himself

The food is delicious, and the staff is very friendly. Will definitely eat there again.

Awesome breakfast food with great service. Generous portions freshly made to order. Highly recommended!

Little pricey for what you get. I had the Bass Lake Bisquits and Gravy.

Best breakfast in town! Brian cooks up a mean meal.

Great breakfast and service! Make this a destination.

Great burgers

It was Sunday so busy morning

Food was served in a timely manner and the server was friendly,everything was fresh and served hot.

If you got time to kill this is a great place to eat! Friendly staff and good food!

Food was ok I got the chicken sandwich it wasn't bad just kind of bland and had to much mayo to the point it made it hard to eat. Service was friendly and prompt but failed to tell me much about the menu when asked.

Came here for the first time, and we were excited to try it. Took over 10 minutes for a server to come to our table. After another 10 minutes, finally got our waters, but no menus. There were only 2 other tables occupied with 2 servers and the owner. One couple walked out and the 3 of us after having no one come to our table, walked out. We don't recommend. Disappointing.
