Last year we drove to a town called Church's Ferry which is right off of 2. There wasn't a lot of people there, but the bartender/owner Rex was absolutely a riot. We had a lot of fun. Supposedly they get dancers there as well, but we never saw them. :beer:

Last trip to DL area was at Churches Ferry, and yes they did have some dancers on Sat. night.....That was three years ago, but have not been to the area since. A good friend of mine has been hunting that area for a lot of years, even stores alot of deeks in a guys building there.....For you local guys the farmers name is "Olie"(sp), not sure his last name......maybe this year have to come up for a hunt and see if the beer is still cold in Churches Ferry........ :beer:

Can't say I know the bars in that area. But I can tell you that "Ole" is a hell of a guy. We got to know him last year. Very nice people.

Head north to Crystal, which is a ways away and stop into the Spud. It's my cousin's bar and have a "to die for" Mexican food Thursday night. Cheap cold beer too :beer:

If you want unknown quantities of weird and exciting action go to Nellies in DL. :lol:

Is Harry's bar still there?

 

[water_swater]

I'm a local, its funny to hear you describe all these places. The bar in Churchs Ferry has a new owner, and there should be dancers for the first weekend in October.

I like the bar in the basement of The Ranch....

.....because it's close to the upstairs of The Ranch!!!

One of the best places to eat in North Dakota, I think. You could put their food on the plate at Sanders here in Grand Forks and people wouldn't know the difference.

Last Saturday after a day of grouse hunting and walleye fishing the crab and artichoke appetizer as well as the porterhouse steak were to die for! :beer:

I agree about the Ranch.....best BBQ ribs I've found in ND.

 

[fungalsnowgoose]

Earls is an excellent bar. Danny and Skinner (owner operators) are excellent guys. I highly recommend stoppping in for a beer.

I haven't been up to Churches Ferry for 3 years either. Too bad Rex is gone. I met him a few times, and he's a character.

In Devils Lake, only scumbags hang out at...

We actually had a pretty good dinner at the Lakota (Sportsmans) Lodge as well. I think they have a couple of special nights each week, one for prime rib and the other for lobster, but I can't recall which nights they are. Probably end up there for a dinner this year again as well.

In Devils Lake, only scumbags hang out at Web's, Thirsty's, & Nellie's,

It takes a scumbag to know a scumbag!! :beer:

That was kind of mean sorry man. I know what you mean.
