Rapidan Dam Cafe - Mankato

Excellent food, great pie, quaint atmosphere and very pleasant service.

Our first time. Our burgers were delicious. But the pie selection was very limited because of the publicity about the cafe recently on a local tv channel, nice weather, and the cafe is closing for the season at end of October. We had slices of Sour Cream Raspberry and Candy Apple pies.

A little off the main drag but not far and very worth it! Small little place, staff does an amazing job of putting out a ton of food. Only a few tables inside but there's a park that has tables too. Cute spot next to the river and the dam. Amazing food very fresh and tasty. Very reasonable prices. Bring cash no cards accepted. No wifi (not a complaint nice to be unplugged at such a beautiful location) and their telephone is an old fashion pay phone. Plenty parking. Only downside is it's not closer to home

Awesome little old cafe. An old farm house turned burger restaurant. Staff is super friendly. Awesome burgers, fries, onion rings and pies. Can't wait to go back. Cool nick nacks all over the place. Wall mounted pay phone for those of us who remember them. Nice little park across the parking lot to eat our lunch.

They have some of the best pies in all of Minnesota.
