Paul Bunyan Bar & Grill

About This Establishment

Crunch first, then a smoky char coats the bites. Grease beads the plate as brine and heat duel for dominance. Glacier air outside adds a rugged, practical energy.

What Diners Say

Portions are generous; Grizzly Burger and Blue Cheese and Onion Burger deliver solid texture and savory balance, with crispy onion rings adding crunch.
