10/22/25 11:30am. Great service. Waitress came over right away and said I’ll be right with you and she was and gave us a little time to study the menu and came back we play store order everything went perfectly. I know this bar staff was very friendly too the one we left we heard people saying thank you and come again. We had chicken fingers, a hamburger and deep fried mushrooms and the mushrooms were perfectly done and larger portion then other similar restaurants offer. Just like I remember 40 years ago when I was in college and we ordered them. A bonus was only left, two unique old Volkswagens parked outside. Unique restrooms with shag carpeting on the door and ceilings. A nice quiet friendly place even though it was somewhat busy. Parking on the street so you may have to walk a little bit.

Well…. we read all the reviews and that the burgers were Michelin 5 star. And the cash, no credit policy, so we came prepared.

I’m not a snob, really. I love authentic local joints with great service and food. But this was not great on either one.

We entered and grabbed an open booth. Waited 5 minutes, no acknowledgement or server to our table. They looked at us once or twice then went to other tables. Finally I got up and picked up menus at the front and sat back down. The two women waitstaff looked at me again a few times and ignored us! Totally awful.

I was ready to leave but my wife convinced me to go try two seats at the bar. We got up and carried our menus to the bar and finally got service! The bartender was friendly and greeted us. Our food came fast and he was quick to get us some beers (frosty beer glasses were a nice touch).

But the food was really basic. Just bar food, not bad, not outstanding. The cheese curds are a pass for me.

I might be barred from entering again by writing this honest review but I’m sharing honest feedback. The waitstaff need to get a class in customer service.

We have always drove by this spot and finally had the opportunity to stop in and I’m glad we did! The meisterburger was delicious and the fresh cut fries were even better! Our server was very fun and friendly and the atmosphere was great! There are lots of things on their menu that I want to come back and try! If you’re in the area – it’s worth the stop! You won’t regret it!

This is a great, cozy neighborhood bar/restaurant. The burger was delicious, perfectly cooked and not too large (I like burgers that are not oversized as it leaves room for beer!). The bun was soft and tasty as well. The French fries were great quality, looked fresh cut. The inside has a nice atmosphere and makes you feel warm even when it’s freezing outside! JFK also famously visited this place! Parking is fine, there is a teeny lot or street parking which is easy. Oh, it is cash only which is a little annoying but if you know ahead of time it’s okay.

I mean the atmosphere and ambience of this place is why you come! God I love a bar/restaurant with carpet on the walls and potentially on the ceiling.

This is a German bar serving American food but mannnnn their burger with kraut slapped. They also have Hefeweißen on tap which is sort of unheard of at bars in Minnesota. Staff was so friendly too! This is a place to stop in for a beer or 2 or 3 and stay for some yummy apps.

Loved it and will be back again!

Best burger I’ve ever had in my life! I’ll never forget the first time I had one of these as a teenager and I crave it still today in my 30’s. I’ve been a chef for over 20 years and this is easily the best burger I have ever had. The Burgermeister add fried onions. Customer service is also a 10. Not many places left like this.

A Stillwater Institution!
If they gave out a Michelin Star for neighborhood tavern cheeseburgers this would be the place!

Unpretentious neighborhood bar in business for 75 years. We don’t live near here but we show up for birthdays and special occasions since the burgers are that good!
The Burgermeister is where it’s at. It’s the best.
Always have to have that with the fried mushrooms appetizer.

Any place that has carpet on the interior walls inside the bathrooms is okay with me.

Bring cash! They don’t take plastic , but they do have an ATM in case you come unprepared.

We had the good fortune of stumbling upon this place on our way to downtown Stillwater….but we loved this spot, so we stayed here the entire time. This place has a genuine throwback style, but is in great shape and they keep it very clean. The burgers were outstanding and the beer tap selection was wide enough to please all tastes. Our waitress was friendly and helpful and had perfect timing when stopping by.

Do yourself a favor and stop at this place sometime soon, you won’t be disappointed.

My wife and I ordered mesiter burgers and fries. Food was incredible. They really load up the bacon on the meister burgers! Fries had a little bit of skin on them and were fried nice and crispy. Our waitress was very nice and had refills for us before we even had to ask. If you’re ever in Stillwater you definitely need to eat here
