Gronks Grill & Bar

If you are a burger fan Gronk's should be on your list of places to stop and eat while you are in the Twin Ports. They don't have the cheapest burgers but they do have some of the biggest so the price you pay does not seem unreasonable. Not to mention the selection of burgers on the menu is the most extensive in the area by far. I have been here before and have never been disappointed. If you are not a burger fan don't discount Gronk's due to that as they also have numerous other selections on their menu, I can only speak for the burgers and today I had their indian tacos which were excellent as well, otherwise I have always had burgers. Oh and get the fries, they are cut thick cut, fried to perfection, and taste amazing.

Already looking forward to our next visit.

I always stop at Gronk's when I'm in NW Wisconsin. I straddled up to the bar on Thursday night with my daughter (she's 30) and we ordered all app's - 1lb. of Chicken Wings, Cheese Curds, & Fried Pickles. The Wisconsin Holy Trinity if you will! Protein, dairy, and a veggie. My daughter also added the soup of the day. Almost everything was outstanding! Best cheese curds I've had period. Wings were huge and fried pickles to die for! The only thing was tho, my daughter reported that the soup wasn't that good. Great drink prices if you are from California, but don't order the soup!

I GUARANTEE you, that all these four and five star reviews are coming from locals that live here in Superior. If you don't live here, God help you.

Read on my little festerlings....

I just left this place. And I am so close to dropping this down to one star.

DISCLAIMER: if you're not a local and don't mind being ignored and sitting for unnecessary stretches of time without being acknowledged, or checked on, even at the bar, then this might be the place for you. Otherwise go elsewhere. 90 minutes for two cocktails and appetizers. I will never, ever come back here.

My server/bartender, a brunette gal with a bruise on her cheek and swollen jowel was amongst the most lackluster inattentive staff people I've ever encountered in a restaurant/bar. Probably because I'm not local. I had 19 people around me, all of them knew one another on first name basis. I guess in order for me to actually be acknowledged I need to live here. Although I've been sitting there for well over an hour, with an empty Glass, she's sure quick to jump at asking the locals that come in at various times what they would like to drink.

Lime Wheels. And not even full-lime wheels, I didn't think Lime Wheels could get any worse, but these were half Lime Wheels. I ordered my trademark vodka and soda with extra lime. What do I get? Lime juice and pulp stuck in my fingernails. I asked her if she had lime wedges that I could actually squeeze into my drink instead of getting lime everywhere except inside my drink. I even asked for napkins and told her that I will need them because the lime is going to go everywhere except inside of my glass, and what does she do? She laughs. But do you think she offered to cut me lime WEDGES? No it was "well I can dump some roses lime juice in there for you if you want". Are you effing serious? Don't take the time to do your job correctly because you might miss pouring a Busch Light for one of your local dock workers that won't spend more than $10, than to take 30 extra seconds and give me lime I can actually use. Unacceptable.

The other bar back girl was really nice, but all in all the entire staff is strange. Probably because it's so close to Canada. I'm fuming right now, my server just gives ZERO f****.

The place is actually really clean and has nice decorum. I didn't use the bathroom because I was afraid if I stood up for more than 10 seconds, my area would have been cleared. Looking back in retrospect, maybe that would have got me my check and out of there in a timely manner.

I ordered fried pickles and cheese curds. The pickles were super super good. Actually some of the best pickles I've had. The cheese curds, well, whatever. They're cheese curds.

As I sat there with an empty glass for about the last 30 minutes, with my credit card on the bar wanting to cash out, and my ever so attentive bartender passed me at least a dozen times, I had to literally put my credit card in her face in order to get out of there. Because the coveted vocals were coming in and ordering their Busch Light.

This place could be so much more, but it's evident that the owners only focus on the locale and the local clientele. I just feel highly insulted. I hope people reading this review take it as a stroke of Truth and not a rant, and plan accordingly. I can't say that you'll have a different experience if you sit at a table with an actual server, but if you're at the bar, and you're not FROM here, then you're NOBODY.

Too bad for my bartender, because I'm that guy that typically tips 50%. She only got about 7% today, which was very generous considering what I went through.

Terrific menu- everything from burgers to dogs and brats and poutine! Very friendly attentive staff. Food was great. Really cool space age beer taps.

Great food, service, very reasonably priced. Our server was fantastic! Wonderful stop on our road trip!

Great burger selection with some crazy good options. Pretty realistic interior corresponding to a roadside bar. Waitresses were pretty busy since there were only two on duty but ours took pretty good care of us.

Not sure about the rest of the menu, but the giant onion rings were more breading than onion. And the fish fry was mostly batter as well. Service was short handed but there was never a mention of how long (it was embarrassingly long) it would take to get our food. Unfortunately, first impressions can be devastating-not going back if we're ever in the area again.

Hair found in nacho cheese. Salty chicken, cold cheese curds. We're told food would be ready in 20/25 minutes for take out, it took almost 50 minutes.

Excellent bar, bottom's up tap beer (gotta see it to believe it!), fantastic food, great service! We were just passing through but we would go out of our way to go here again. My husband said it was one of the top 3 burgers he's ever had and that's saying a lot! Highly recommended!

Terribly long wait to get our food, an hour and 15 minutes! The food was adequate but the long wait offset that and then some. Adding insult to inconvenience, our server tried to blame "the printer". Apparently, printed orders are sent to the kitchen so the cooks know what to cook. Very doubtful we'll be back, especially in light of feedback I've recently had from others.

This place has homemade bread to onion rings . Great burgers to hotdogs . Nice size portions too.
