Best Of: Bloody Marys!
Best Bloody Marys in Otter Tail County!
It been awhile since we did a BEST OF list, and for that, we apologize. Please keep in mind that this isn’t an official designation, just some advice we got from some locals on where one should go if they were looking to enjoy some of the best Otter Tail County has to offer.
Today’s list focuses on a beverage that folks enjoy in many different forms: the BLOODY MARY.
Willy T’s – Ottertail, MN
Our quest to find the best Bloody Mary began way back when the days were long and the sun was bright. We stopped by Willy T’s at Thumper Pond Resort in the City of Ottertail this summer to sample their take on the classic “hangover cure”. Willy T’s has their own in-house chef made, top secret mix that’s sure to spice things up.
The Pickle Factory – Dent, MN
Nestled in the rolling hills of the Northwest part of our County is a place called The Pickle Factory. We figured with a name like that, the Bloody Mary’s have to be good, and we were right. It’s a bit off the beaten path, but getting there is half the fun. The drink was nummy and they have deep fried pickles to go along with the beverage. A must try in our humble opinion.
VFW Post 612 Auxiliary – Fergus Falls, MN
Based on the feedback from our followers, we ventured to Fergus Falls for the final two stops. Next up was the VFW Post 612 Auxiliary. When you go, be sure to ask for the “MONSTER MARY”. It has a pickle, asparagus, beef stick, stuffed olives, mushroom, cheese and a a few other goodies. If you are up for it, you can a double shot in your MONSTER MARY for a very reasonable price. The burgers there are fantastic as well.
Socials Bar & Grill – Fergus Falls, MN
Finally, we checked out Socials Bar & Grill in Fergus Falls. Whether you are watching a big game or just, socializing, the atmosphere, food and of course the Bloody Mary make this place a must for any Bloody Mary aficionado. While we were there, they were just unveiling their own brand new top secret recipe. So if you haven’t been there in awhile, you might wanna give it a try.
Some other places that were recommended that we weren’t able to get to are the Firehouse in Wadena, Sportsman’s Bar in Clitherall & Stub’s in Battle Lake.
