On our way back from a long drive to Thunder Bay. We stopped in due to the traffic from the Labor Day weekend. We were amazed at the well done decor as well as the 1950's style that over took the establishment. Our meals were prepared quite well and with quick service. Betty (who wears a name tag saying "I am Betty") seated us herself. Everyone was having a good time, and the food was perfect. I had the Rueben and fries, my wife had the Hot Roast Beef with gravy. Our portions were more than fair and we finished the meal off by splitting a piece of "5 layer chocolate pie", you can't beat that for a meal right off the highway! We now will make it a point to stop anytime we are in the area for sure!    [05 Sep 2002 13:50:25]

Went Corporate
Betty doesn't even own the joint anymore, and it shows. The service was horrible. It was such a dissappointment. Having a cabin just up the road from Betty's, it was always a treat to have breakfast there. Times have changed. Don't let the new constructed building fool you. The food, service, and pies just are not the same.    [06 May 2004 09:51:58]

I Stop Even When I'm Not Hungry
I can't resist stopping at Betty's for a slice of pie, even when I'm not really hungry. This is some of the best pie in the country, reminds me of what Grandma used to make, with nice flaky, tender crust. The people there are great too.    [18 Sep 2004 21:37:34]

What Happened?
This is just as bad as eating at Perkins. This used to be a special place to eat. Not anymore! Food is below average. Service was horrid, and the pies might as well be from the grocery freezer. Very sad.    [13 Nov 2004 10:14:09]

Maybe change the name to Betty's Cafe?
My wife and I were staying in Two Harbors and decided to try it despite reading a not-so-good review on the web. I should have heeded its warning. The food I had (burger) was OK, but I must say, the pie was not the best. The crust seemed store-bought, and might have been better had it been. We had a better slice of pie (with fresh wild blueberries) in a small Ontario town and on our trip home through Wisconsin, we stopped at another place with slices of pie for a whole dollar less, but far superior in quality and variety. If this place is going to tout its pies as its selling point, at least make them worth buying, otherwise, change the name and don't raise our expectations    [05 Aug 2006 08:04:22]
