Cove Point Lodge is truly a unique dining destination. From inspired fine dining crafted with local ingredients to mouth-watering pub fare, our food is as memorable as the incredible views. Make the most of your North Shore experience and come ready to enjoy some delicious creations from our highly rated restaurant.
The Crossings started in 2003 on Minnesota’s majestic North Shore. From our origins as a corner bar with solid American pub fare we’ve been extremely fortunate to show host to thousands of dedicated eaters from locales near and far.
Owners, Sara & Jason Barstow, were both born and raised in rural Minnesota. They take pride in working hard and caring for their family, friends, and community. They rehabbed a building that had been closed since 2011, investing everything they had into the American dream. They created a place where you can relax, meet your neighbor, and get lost in the local musical talent. Most importantly, they want to make sure everyone walking through the door is able to enjoy the shore with some laughs, cocktails, and amazing food.
