Sure, it’s easy to resort to fast food when you’re really hungry and need food now. But with a little more planning, you can sample one of the many excellent restaurants that have their origins right here in Minnesota. These spots have better food, a better atmosphere, and sometimes killer specials that deliver even more bang for your buck. One of the best spots that ticks all of these boxes? A little northern Minnesota restaurant called Lonesome Pine. They may be a little rustic, but their food is fantastic – especially endless walleye night.

Lonesome Pine is located at 13726 Katrine Drive in Deerwood, Minnesota.

And inside, the theme continues. The dining area is a picture in knotty pine, with wood paneling and cabin-style dining chairs.
