Delicious food and excellent friendly service. The restaurant is clean and inviting with a modern look.
I would highly recommend the prime rib sandwich with fries.
They carry Coca-Cola products which is my favorite.

It was a busy Saturday night but instead of making us wait 218 Tavern called in extra help. Kristi was our server and she treated us so well. She was kind, speedy, and ready to assist our large group with lots of kids. Food was absolutely amazing, made to perfection. Our portions were generous. Dessert was out of this world! Every one of us left with a smile on our face. We will definitely be returning to eat here while on our fishing trips.

Enjoyed a great California burger here the first night of our trip, with a side of sweet potato planks (flat and wide crinkle cut style fries) that were really good as well. The second night we feasted on some walleyes we brought up here from home that they fried up for us. The cook was even cool enough to use the home made beer batter I had brought. The bartender, Cheyanne, was super great as well, and took very good care of us both nights, even though she was kinda slammed. My new go to spot up here.

218 Tavern is, without question, the finest establishment in Baudette, Minnesota. From the moment you step inside, the atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between rustic Northwoods charm and understated elegance. It is the kind of place that feels both welcoming and confident in its identity, with no pretense, just excellence.
The food is where 218 Tavern truly distinguishes itself. The steak bites were nothing short of exceptional, perfectly seared, tender, and bursting with flavor. Each bite was rich and satisfying, clearly prepared with care and a deep respect for quality ingredients.
Equally memorable was the fresh caught walleye, a true highlight and a testament to the region’s culinary heritage. Lightly breaded, flawlessly cooked, and incredibly fresh, it delivered everything you would hope for from a classic Minnesota dish while somehow exceeding expectations. Simple, honest, and expertly executed.
Service was attentive without being intrusive, enhancing the experience rather than distracting from it. Everything flowed naturally, creating an evening that felt relaxed yet elevated.
In every sense, my experience at 218 Tavern was outstanding. Whether you are a local or just passing through Baudette, this is not just a place to eat, it is a destination. An out of this world dining experience that truly sets the standard for the area.

Wow, the food was amazing. The service was friendly and fast, and the place was really clean. 218 Tavern was good enough to get pinned on my Google Maps. I will be back. Definitely worth the drive! The burger was so big, I could hardly put a dent in my fries. The Mac and cheese on the MAC burger exceeded all expectations. The fries were tasty as well. My coworker raved about the 218 sauce on his bacon deluxe burger. You will not be disappointed.
