Most amazing burger ever, like a little piece of heaven in my mouth!

by mercyme22

I have been wanting to go here forever and never did, till last Saturday. Was there when it opened, which I'm glad I was because this place gets full quick. I had just a basic cheeseburger and OMG - it was amazing! I can't wait to go back and try the garlic or pizza burger - YUMMY! And our server Katie was amazing and one of the best server's I've ever had, or at least in a long time :) I would recommend this to anyone. I can't wait to go back!

• Pros: cheap and good food, great service
• Cons: can get busy fast

Cheap and good

by hage0269

Good burger, really good onion rings (i dip in ranch). The juicy lucy is not nearly as good as the Nook, in St. Paul, but it's good, none-the-less!! I know there is also on in Maplehood and Champlain also.

Love the amosphere

by niquelouise

My boyfriend and I decided to try the two places i town know for JUICY LUCY's and I was truly disappointed in the 5-8 Club's. It might be great to some customers. But what I was disappointed with was the burger was soooo dry!! BUt I loved that yo can choose different cheeses in the Juicy Lucy. Thats a great thing!!!! gotta love pepperjack!!! I love the fact that our bill was not even $20!!!! It was great!!! I liked it for its variety but the burger was kind of dry!!! A juuicy lucy dry???

• Pros: Great Variety
• Cons: DRY JUICY LUCY

Great food

by fundoodman

Went to the 5-8 yesterday, they had one of the best burgers I've ever had. Service was great as was the patio. On the back of the menu there's a story about the history of the restaurant/bar which was very cool. The prices are excellent and it is also kid friendly. I will be frequenting this fine establishment much more in the future. Yum Yum!!!

• Pros: Burgers, friendly staff
• Cons: None

great food!!!!! BAD service!!

by neighborladi

I love going to the 5 8. We have gone there sense we were kids:) I SO wish that they would do something about the grumpy wait staff that has worked there to long. We did however go in a month ago and saw a couple new FRIENDLY faces:) You would not want to cast new peeps away with rude staff. I am glad to see the change:)

• Pros: FOOD
• Cons: some service

Great Juicy Lucys

by brentburnsfan

They have very good Juicy Lucy's which are second only to Matt's Bar. The buffalo popcorn chicken with bleu cheese is a great appetizer to start with and the fries are very good as well. This is a great dive bar with a very interesting history in bootlegging. I've had great service every time I've been there. I've had to wait a few times to be seated during supper but not too long.

• Pros: Great food, good service, parking lot

The 5-8 is Top Notch

by bizzness295

I love the 5-8. My family loves the 5-8, and all of my friends love the 5-8. Classic american food that tastes so good. After your first time, you will crave the 5-8. All of the apps are wonderful. The juicy lucy is better than Matt's because you have a choice of about 4 different cheese. It can definately get busy, so you may have to wait, but it does help in the summer when the patio is open. Please don't be that guy who walks past the line of people to look for a table. If you see a line, make your way to the end. Don't worry it won't take to long, and will be worth the wait.

• Pros: The food, service, prices
• Cons: everyone wants to go to the 5-8

Locals come for American-style comfort food in a relaxed setting.

In Short
In spirit, it's a basement rec room, with faux wood paneling on the walls, drink signs and lots of familiar faces. The screened-in porch is great for summertime dining. Not too many surprises on the all-American roadhouse menu. For starters, there's spiced buffalo wings and deep-fried cheese curds. Avoiding the mythical Juicy Lucy is not an option. The Hangover is a fried pork tenderloin sandwich, named so for its size.
