The Cranberry over Superior

MEET OUR STAFF SUNDAY!

Meet Drew! Drew joins us from New Ulm this summer and you'll find him behind the bar during dinner slinging your favorite signature cocktails of ours. He's enthusiastic himself about food and drink and it shows in his production and recommendations.

Drew is multi passionate and loves to connect with all of you through shared life experience and story. He's adventurous, he's quirky, he's kind, and he brings a contagious lust for life into every interaction he has. Within one visit, he'll leave you scratching your head and wondering "Is there anything this guy hasn't done"! Just knowing him is an adventure!

Outside of the Cranberry, you'll find him traveling and mapping lakes for hummingbird, personal training, bow hunting (ask him about his connection in this field through his wife), smoking a really good cigar, and drumming up the door of the next exciting life destination to knock on. All and all, he dropped everything he had going on and uprooted his life to help out a dear friend this summer so maybe his most redeeming quality amongst them all is just being a really good friend.

We are enjoying the time we have with him and if you haven't already, come on in for a visit, a delicious cocktail and an intimate chat. AND he made this blueberry pie which we are serving today until it's gone!

Open today until 8pm!

MEET OUR STAFF SUNDAY!

Meet Lizzy Lizzard. This is her second busy season with us, and she brings magic and sparkle to every shift. She's kind, she's bold, she's strong, she's funny, she's joy and she really cares about meeting people where they are to help make the most enjoyable Cranberry experience she can. Her empathetic heart radiates throughout the restaurant whenever she's here.

Originally from Washington State but a wanderer at heart, she was pulled to the South Shore of the Big Lake through her adoration of the outdoors. She's an incredible artist (you can actually enjoy and buy her art at the restaurant!), she kayaks, she takes long walks in the woods, she rock hunts on the beach, consumes copious amounts of coffee, has an insatiable sweet tooth, is a regular at all of the local thrift stores, she's a dog mom, she's an adventurer, and so SO very much more. She's simply the best and we are so lucky to have her when we do! Be sure to thank this delight of a human when you see her; she not only makes the Cranberry a better place, but our community as a whole.

We are open today from 11am until 8pm!
