We recently ate here on our trip to the North Shore. The pizza was wonderful and came very fast. We also loved the Bridgeman's ice cream cones. The staff was very friendly. The atmosphere is wonderful. Lots of interesting things on the walls to see.

great pizza, no joke. and the beer selection is really good. you can go cheap domestic blue collar beer or still cheap fancy shmancy. the decor is cool old school MN stuff, the vibe is fun and upbeat. might get a little loud but I'd still recommend it for both families and friends. just a classic place one should visit...

We decided to go here to have a drink after our dinner on Wednesday night. We went upstairs to the bar and we greeted by a very big and angry looking bartender. My mother in law is from another country and asked the bartender to repeat the types of wine and he shouted at her. He was so rude! I... More

Poor menu display. Finally the one and only person taking orders, gave us a readable printed menu, which listed the ingredients as you couldn't tell from the cutsie Norwegian names. Food was OK but overly priced. Limited size selection goes from 7" (too small for 2) to 12" (way too much for 2 people). Not impressed after all the advertising... More

It's really hard to screw up basic pizza and that's what they serve. The billboard ads are cute and funny, wifi is fast and reliable. If you get there around lunch, they offer slices to go. Eaten overlooking the marina, its a nice break from that trail mix.

Glad to have a choice in a tourist town. This coop sits low and can easily be missed. Has a nice selection of shelved food and fresh.

The pizza is really good, the atmosphere is family and fun. We like to sit in the upstairs section and enjoy an adult beverage with our pizza.

We were traveling and needed to find a place to get some quick and inexpensive lunch. I am glad we had the special at this pizza place. It was delicious, fast and really reasonably priced. A great value for anyone who wants a satisfying and interesting lunch.

Yes, my family visits Grand Marais every single summer and we have to come to Sven and Ole's Pizza at least once on our visit, usually on the first night to get acquainted with the town again (same with World's Best Donuts, check out my review there). The servers are helpful and kind, value is great, and the pizza is... More
