Crooked Pint Ale House

Josh Eckblad

Good food when they get the order right. I've gotten the wrong burger two out of the last three trips. The most recent visit I was given my meal and didn't see my waitress for another 20 minutes until she brought the bill. By that time I didn't even want my meal fixed, I just wanted to leave. To be fair, it was decently busy today when I visited. They are usually not very busy, but even when the restaurant is empty, the service isn't great. Will not be visiting the Waite Park location again after today's ordeal.

This restaurant is really good. I have been here multiple times and has good bar food. However, we went here last night and ended up leaving before even being seated. We waited for approximately 20 minutes, with multiple staff watching the waiting area fill up, without doing anything about it. After watching staff for only one minute it was making me so anxious I needed to go outside and wait, while a member of our party of 4 waited by the hostess counter. I saw lots of staff snapping at each other and staff handing other staff wrong orders. They appeared very understaffed. After getting tired of waiting and still no staff acknowledging the waiting area, we decided to go to another restaurant. My mom even commented, "even if we did get a table I don't think I would want that staff to wait on our table", referring to the auditable snappy comments staff were saying to each other. The management needs to better train staff, and have systems in place to better support staff. This was a very unfortunate experience as we were celebrating my grandfather's 88th birthday. Hearing this chaotic and unprofessional environment put a damper on the beginning of our night.

We've typically had good experiences with Crooked Pint, this was a far cry from those. We spent TWO hours from the time we arrived until we paid an left to eat dinner. It was only a 5 min wait, we ordered drinks and an appetizer immediately and we were empty, hadn't ordered and getting our wings 30 min later. Another hour for food. Burger patties were not what they used to be- quite slim! At one point we overheard the bartender asking our server if she needed help, she said no, she was doing alright! Poor service, slow food and lacking the quality we were used to.

I strictly come here as a service delivery driver, personally I've never ordered anything from here. But picking up orders is always a breeze. The food is always packed tight and ready to go, I believe the only time I've had to wait only took a max of 3 minutes. Very delivery driver friendly, which is hard to comeby these days with people not prioritizing our orders. Staff is always cheerful, friendly and very inviting! Anytime I get offers to pick up orders from here, I ALWAYS take them. Amazing high quality service. 10/10. Thank you for always providing a great experience! 👍
