This post is long overdue. I have been going to 513 sports cafe for about 2 months now for my lunch break. Not everyday, but pretty often. #1 If you order food, Its coming in HOT, be prepared to wait a min or two to let it cool off to save your tastbuds. #2 Ive had, Chicken Tenders, Egg Rolls, Burger, Patty Melt, Mozzarella sticks, and Fried Mushrooms. They Do Not Disapoint, especialy for the LOW price. I now order the Fried mushrooms, every time I visit, they are my favorite. Julie and Eric... I hope I spelled his name right, are AMAZING!

Heard they fry up some good ol Walleye. Walked in & sat at the bar, by the door. Asked for the Walleye and a few other folks mentioned they were here for this Fish too. Great atmosphere. Folks all seemed to be cheerful on a Friday evening. Food tasted Great, not a bad thing about it. It comes on a very Fresh Hoagie Bun and I ordered Fries and Coleslaw with it. I noticed the Bartenders always were smiling. The Service was Great too.
