Skillet Restaurant

Out for a ride on the bike stopped at a little cafe called The Skillet in Brainard. Very friendly family owned place with delicious food. Will definitely go back!

I sent a review. Becky was awesome. We waited 45 minutes for our food and my husband was upset as his was not good 😐 😕. Won't be stopping there again

What a wonderful little place! First time here and will NOT be my last! We’ve driven by it so often and finally stopped for a late breakfast on a Friday….the quality and freshness of the food blew me away. We had a skillet and an omelet and both were so good, fresh hash browns were incredible, portions fantastic and price point excellent. Added a piece of cake afterwards and wow. Just wow. Something about homemade cake, topped with homemade whipped cream, I don’t know how to describe how good that is to me. It’s like being at Grandmas house. 😍 Anyway we’ll be back for the made fresh daily corned beef Reuben and I also want to try some homemade chicken salad. And yes, I will try whatever homemade dessert these angels have dreamed up! The service was quick and so friendly and we got a tip about busiest times (Saturday/Sunday 10a-1p) so I also loved that tidbit. All in all a really great place that Brainerd should be proud of and everyone should check out asap!

I liked the looks of the place. It was clean and open. Menu o.k., but not a whole lot to choose from and the prices were a bit more than figured for some of it. Seemed like it's supposed to be like more home-style cooking. I had the Hot Beef Sandwich. Decent amount of beef, gravy was very good. I think the potatoes were instant, but better than most. They put a scoop of stuffing with gravy on it, but the stuffing was super dry and after tasting it,left it alone! Will we go again??? Not sure, but if I did, it would be to try the hamburger,even though it would be almost $13 to come to a final decision,so it may be a while.
