Bemidji Restaurants

Bemidji is the first city on the Mississippi River and the birthplace of the mythical lumberjack, Paul Bunyan. In Bemidji, start your day with a hearty lumberjack breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and sausage. The town's pubs and bars serve traditional American cuisine like burgers and onions rings, while also including slightly unorthodox entrees like wild rice soup and fish tacos. In the town's more upscale restaurants, order the fresh, locally caught fish like walleye or northern pike. You can also try some grilled steaks and homemade pasta. While you're in Bemidji, definitely give the key lime cheesecake or wild blueberry pie a taste as well.
