Had a nice lunch and drinks. Service was great. The patio is a great place to sit and enjoy the outdoors.

Here is a wonderful place just off the lake (which you can still see over the campers). The patio outside is so nice and inviting. The server recommended the Calliflower crust pizza, and it was so good. I do recommend trying it even if you are not gluten free.

Great experience. Stopped for a couple of drinks and a snack. We sat at the bar Sunday afternoon. We ordered the Walleye fingers and a basket of fries. Service was great as was the Walleye fingers, good junks of fish and great flavor, fries were crispy and hot. You get your monies worth with the mixed drinks. We would highly …

Part of me wants to keep Back to Captain's a well-kept secret, but it's simply too good not to share. This hidden gem offers an exceptional dining experience that's hard to match.

Last Friday turned into one of those spur-of-the-moment decisions that end up being the right one. A friend and I headed to Back to Captains, and even though I hadn’t been there since the summer, it felt like slipping right back into a good time. The weather was beautiful, so it seemed like half the local crowd had the same …

Our first visit to your establishment on June 19 and it was awesome! Our server Emma was outstanding! She was able to deal with the several jokesters we have in our crowd. And no one complained about the food, from hot roast beef sandwich to meatloaf sandwich to smothered chicken and others, everything was so delicious! We'll definitely be back!
