    I go to the Pine Brook Inn once a year with my husband's family, on Memorial Day weekend when we decorate all the family gravestones in the area. We keep coming back because it's a tradition, but also because we don't want to go anywhere else. Pine Brook is just that good. They've got the standard country bar & grill fare: apps, sandwiches, burgers, larger dinners if you're really hungry. I've never been disappointed by anything I've ordered. Today I had the Reuben; their version uses sour cream instead of Thousand Island dressing. I didn't miss it at all. My husband had the Pine Brook burger, which is a double-decker burger that's also piled with corned beef, ham, bacon, and two kinds of cheese. Carnivore heaven. Oh, and the service is fantastic. Our server today was covering the whole back part of the restaurant, but she was still quick, didn't forget about us, and even stopped to chat a few times. She said she'd been working fourteen days straight, but she had a great attitude and was very friendly. If you're really lucky, you'll go to Pine Brook on a day after they've made a lot of baked potatoes. They take the old potatoes and slice them, fry them, and season them for the best steak fries you've ever had. Seriously. My mother-in-law starts talking about the fries about a week before we go out there. The portions are quite generous, so you'll probably be unbuttoning your jeans and letting out a labored groan when the server comes around to ask you about dessert. But seriously, you really shouldn't skip it. They've got at least ten different kinds of pie, plus cheesecake and carrot cake. The banana cream is a dream. Do it.

    Conveniently located next to Wolcyn Tree Farms, this place is a lifesaver after what seemed like a whole DAY of deciding the best looking 8' tall Fraser Fir in a little town of Cambridge, an hour drive north of the Twin Cities. IMO, this place is a burger joint.. except it's probably better than a burger joint because they serve beer on tap!! I had the plain jane burger with tater tots (check out the pics). My friend had their special burger, forgot the name, but it's double stacked with all kinds of meat!! I am in love with this place. Probably the best half a pound burger I've ever had... no joke. Oh yes, one last thing. You have to go here only when you hear that loud growl from your stomach telling you to FEED it or else it'll feed on itself. I went here with my friends starving and came out with an unbuttoned pants totally satisfied. And when I mean totally satisfied, I mean passing out in my friend's car on our drive back to Minneapolis. Just remember that if you do get a burger, you have to be ready to eat at least half a pound. They don't serve anything less, unless you get the kid's meal which is probably more like 1/3 pound rather than a 1/4. :P

    Everything is great, from the pine brook burger with onion rings to the steaks. My wife and I have celebrated our anniversary here the last three years because we know we're going to have a great, hassle free night out when we go to the pine brook inn.

    S T I L L C O M I N G H E R E !!! One could say, "Well, it's not like there are many places to stop at between Cambridge and Princeton", but there are. Never been to them, and probably won't! Son was here from OOT and was impressed with his Bloody Mary. Out West, if you get a celery stick you are lucky. This Bloody is a meal. Although, the Queen of Bloody Marys is still in Iron River, WI. I had my usual Black and Blue Steak Salad, and, as usual, I dove into it before I remembered to snap a pic. Son said his Reuben was the best he has ever had. Considering he has lived in 7 different states and 2 Continents, traveled all over Central America, India, and Indonesia, that says something. Also, he never knew what a "Rachel" was. It must be a Midwest thing. I cannot say enough good things about this place. It all just "clicks" here. There is also a steady stream of to go orders too. That kitchen must be hummin ! Last week I stopped here after a wedding in St Cloud, where I was at the ceremony, but NOT INVITED to the reception at a local hotel, Yes, my feelings were hurt, and when I told the gal bartender, she too was appalled and bought me a beer and gave me a hug. In a truly sincere manner. T H A N K Y O U P I N E B R O O K LOVE U

    Pretty poor experience overall. Host said hello and started walking away, only to turn around after about 8 paces and say, "oh, you should follow me." The decor and tableware was low quality and certainly not aligned with the prices of the food. We both got steak. Wifey got the special - ribeye, medium. I ordered the sirloin, medium. Mine came with just a hint of pink (well done in other words) and wifey's came completely pink (more medium rare). Sides were without flavor. Dessert, cheesecake, had no flavor and tasted as if it had been sitting for three days. Ended up paying $47 and only had waters. Not sure if the standards are lower in the rural areas, but I could have paid the same amount at a decent restaurant in the cities and been very pleased. Instead, I won't be back.

    Stopped in for a bloody mart last Sunday around 4pm. Place was busy, but not packed. Guessing a lot of lake traffic? Was stopping for a bump before meeting family for supper elsewhere. Anywho say at the bar and service was extremely attentive. Ordered two bloodys and two water. They were out in a flash. The mix looked heavy, but was surprising light and refreshing! The stock of goodies was fantastic as well (meat stick, olive, pepper and a pickle) and a beer chaser of choice to boot!! Not burned either, perfect amount of flavor. We did not see them make it so cannot comment on the doctoring that took place or what the mix was, but will definitely be back to try them for a meal very soon!

    Service is good food is lousy. They need new cooks. For us that live close by is definitely a pass unless you're starving. I give it at least one star only because our server was awesome thank you Shawna.

    Pine Brook Inn is an interesting restaurant located in what was originally a rural schoolhouse (heavily added-on/modified) a ways out from Cambridge and a perfect spot to stop by on a lazy drive or road trip. As such I was heading on a little research expedition with a friend through Isanti and Stearns counties and was happy to read about this place and give it a try. It's pretty good. For the record, 3* from me is not a "I hate it", I just don't make the wild swings from 1 or 5 that some folks like to do. The dining room is slightly rustic with plenty of inviting tables and booths. I took a spot at the sole booth at what was probably the original entrance to the schoolhouse. The service is friendly, outgoing and authentic. The menu covers a lot comfort food basics. We started with an appetizer: Cowboy Caviar, which was basically a nacho platter with a cream cheese and cheddar cheese dip. It was satisfying and a good dish to share. My friend got the day's special: an open-faced prime rib sandwich served philly-style. He enjoyed it. I got the Pine Brook Burger: a double decker beast that mixed a variety of meats and cheeses along with two patties. It was good, but nothing beyond a lot of different things piled onto a burger patty that--by itself--wasn't particularly notable. I got it with tater tots that were similarly serviceable but otherwise forgettable. On the scale of hamburgers I've had this fit square into the middle, and if I go back I'll probably try something different. With that said, I like supporting local places and the service and enthusiasm of the staff, the large portions and the good (even if not great) food makes it worth your patronage if you're in the area.

    Located on the corner / junction of Hwy. 95 and 47, about exactly half way between Princeton and Cambridge is this fantastic place called the Pine Brook Inn. It is a great place to stop if your in the area. Anything you order here is fantastic. This place has been here for years dishing up some of the best food in the area. The menu consists of everything from burgers and sandwiches to steaks and prime rib. They also cook your meat to order, if you want it med. rare, you get it med. rare. I've been coming here since I was a child and not much has changed. Good food, great service and a nice relaxing atmosphere combined with really decent prices make this an excellent pit stop on your way up north!

    This is a place where you will share the parking lot with vehicles other than cars. I've even seen horses tied up outside. Food is always good and service always friendly. Broasted Chicken to die for, signature burgers big enough to be an eating challenge but worth every messy bite, club sandwiches and specials are wonderful. We are there at least once every two weeks and we are never disappointed. It is worth the 10 mile detour if you are near Princeton or Cambridge. Family comes to visit more often (You decide if that is a good thing) because we take them to the Pine Brook.

    This a great restaurant with a rustic backwoods ambience. The service is great and the food selection is great. I highly recommend the ribs but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. You should definitely go to this restaurant if you are in the area for either lunch or dinner.
