Camp Trippalindee

We stopped up at the roof because we were staying at the Graduate, just to see what it was all about. While we didn’t get anything to eat or drink, the view from up here is fantastic! Like The Graduate, this bar holds very true to its “camp” theme. The decor is spot-on and makes you feel like you’re at summer camp in all the best ways. There are board games, a fair amount of patio seating, and excellent thematic touches. Even though we didn’t get anything, the staff was authentic and welcoming. We hope to stop back and enjoy some grub!

Gorgeous view and the fires will be nice in cold weather. Unfortunately though it had just rained when we went so we opted for indoors. The furniture/decor was retro and kind of cool. Layout was a bit confusing though. You had to place your order yourself and then they give you a buzzer for when your food is ready. Not a big deal but it was sort of crowded and hard to navigate back and forth from bar to the area where we sat. The food was actually pretty good and better than I was expecting. I personally loved the cheese curds but a few people in my group did not. One person did not like the spice and a few others did thought there was too much cheese and not enough breading. The spicy chicken sandwich good although a bit messy to eat. The grain bowl was good but had too much sauce which ruined the flavor of the other ingredients. The drink menu was pretty limited. Also, a few people in our group ordered a spiced cider. It was supposed to be a hot drink but the cider was room temperature. The bartender remade it for them but it was disappointing that they would leave cider out for so long that it got cold and then still try to serve it.

The camp theme is amazingly well done. The views from the outdoor lounge were great. It was a good place to spend an afternoon with food, cocktails and games to play at your table. Food is ordered at the bar, no wait staff. Burgers, fried chicken sandwich and impossible burger were all delicious. Due to the location the clientele seemed to lean towards out of town guests.

Myself and five other friends visited this restaurant on a Saturday night, around 8pm. It was about half full. Atmosphere: The restaurant is located on the 7th floor, so you will need to take the elevator up. Outside the elevator is a really cool outdoor patio area with chairs, table and a couch. This would be a cool place to hang out on a summer night. The inside of the restaurant is a 70s theme upnorth cabin feel. There are board games and a huge connect 4 game board which was really cool. Food: Out of our group of 6, we all ordered either a hamburger or chicken sandwich. They tasted good but were absolutely drenched in grease. We also ordered a side of fried pickles which were pretty good. There is a $10 minimum to use your credit or debit card so you will have to order more than one item. The reason I am downgrading the restaurant overall is because out of 6 people, 4 of us got violently ill. Most of us were up all night either vomiting or....other food poisoning symptoms of you get my meaning. Also none of us were drinking that night. I would go back to hang out here but am scared to eat the food.

It's cool I guess. Sometimes you can take your theme to seriously. Uncomfortable chairs and other strange furniture choices. Burger was five guys quality so not bad but nothing to remember. The fries were okay and like everything else just mediocre. The service was poor as well. Great view though. Lots of boardgames which is fun. Just think they could have done more with this space.
