Getting its start in 1989, Slim’s Bar and Grill quickly became a staple in the lakeside community of Bemidji, Minnesota. This lodge pole restaurant and bar is situated just steps from the shimmering Lake Bemidji; after dinner visitors can walk down to the lake and enjoy a beautiful sunset. The bar and grill proudly uses locally sourced products whenever possible, including fresh buns from Raphael’s Bakery, Beer’s BBQ Sauce, and ground beef from Sittsworth’s Meats. The interior features rustic design, hunting décor, some booths, a pool table, dart board, and flat-screen TVs. A popular menu choice is the Bleu Cheese Bacon Burger – a 7-ounce ground beef patty cooked to perfection, served with kosher pickles and chips.
