Great food. This bar/restaurant was sold to a new owner who also owns the Drunken Noodle in Fargo and Crosby. The team continues to update and innovate the menu! Clever menu options on the way and the cooks/chefs do a wonderful job out of their tiny kitchen! Will definitely go again and look forward to trying out the new menus to come! Only wish they had more space!

Best food I’ve had in along time. Highly recommend. Bartender was amazing and hilarious and the manager is very professional and on top of it. The hangover burger is a must and the fries are to die for!! Be back soon.

Our trip was at the end of a very long day, everyone was tired and hungry and we decided to go to 612 station as we heard that they had good burgers. It was a very quiet evening there, and when we arrived there were 12 customers there including the three of us. Our food took 45 minutes from the time that we ordered to arrive at our table. Two Cooks in the back but 45 minutes for the order of one chicken sandwich and two cheeseburgers seemed fairly excessive to me. I think when they realize they had forgotten our order, they tried to rush it out and the onion rings were virtually raw. The batter on them was not completely cooked. They took them back and put them in the fryer again and once they were finished they tasted good. I’ve heard people saying that they have the best burgers in Brainerd. In my opinion this is not a very good representation of the accuracy of their quality. It was an okay Burger, not bad, not great just okay- grade C. 45 minute wait after ordering when there were two Cooks in the back and only one other table was served in between the time that we ordered and we finally got our food. Overall it was not a very good introduction to this restaurant.

I was in town for a week and ended up eating lunch here every day. The staff was fantastic and the food was amazing. The egg rolls and Mac and cheese bites were great. The soup each day was also amazing. (The Reuben and chicken parm soyps were probably my favorite) all around a great place to grab a bite with fantastic, friendly staff.

Went here today for the first time. Found out it is no longer The 612 Station. New owner it is The Blue Oyster Bar & Grill. We ordered a Bacon Cheeseburger & 2 drinks. The bartender tried charging us $63.95!!

Came here before under different ownership…loved the grilled chicken because it was slightly charred, like it has been on a grill. Tastes like real food. I knew they had closed down but was really craving that type of grilled chicken sandwich. I randomly called and found out they are open under new owner ship. I ordered pick up, and even though a BYO wasn’t on the menu Josh and the kitchen made it happen for me and it was exactly what I needed! Not sure what the restaurant will be in the future but I am excited to check it out.

I found the food to be very good, very hot, and very tasty! My lunch partner and myself shared the Frickles, Egg Rolls, and the Burnt Pork Ends. Our server was as friendly and accommodating as she can possibly be!

Great food and cold beer just as advertised. I like the beef stroganoff. The wife had coconut shrimp and home made tots, which she said were very good. Great service.

If I was to lie. I’d say I go here all the time. I go nowhere else. The foods cold and the beer is warm. I look at the ceiling when I walk. But I can’t lie, right now. It’s in the content. Great place for a few beers and dang good American food. Mostly. The stars already tell the rate. I just write this stuff because it entertains me. I’d like to think this would put a tally for the place. But when your looking here. Your looking to see if it sucks. I’m saying it does not suck. YW

We stopped for a couple drinks and appetizer. Our server, Austin, was so personable and made our stop memorable. You have a gem with Austin!
