Under new ownership and great place to dine outside by the lake. Food is excellent and service is great!

My first encounter with Panga Bar was to attend the Panga Polar Plunge on January 1st, 2024, on the rocky shoreline of Upper Nemahbin Lake. Jumping in groups of ten at 12:30pm. The event was so much fun here at Panga. It's somewhat organized from inside the bar area. You could make a donation to American Heart Society, or not. I only had a Bloody Mary drink here after the plunge. Delish! I like spicy, and needed a little something to eat after the 36 degree temp water. In my opinion, the service was fantastic considering how many (100+) people were there to eat and drink. This place was packed inside and outside. I was able to maneuver my way to the bar (thanks to many nice patrons who let me through the crowd), and order some drinks. The bartender was super sweet, quick to get my order to me, and made sure I had all I needed. There were 4 bartenders that I saw behind the bar at this event, all busy busy bees. This bar is on the lake, down off the frontage road, with many local lake customers. Its rustic. Don't expect anything fancy here. The locals are happy, and they welcome visitors. I'm going to find a night to visit this bar again, check what else they have to offer patrons, and I'll talk to more bartenders. I'm so glad my friend introduced this area bar to me, I will surely be back to check out the food, more drinks, and friendly chatter !! Meet me there ?!

Incredible night of entertainment. 10/10 would recommend Cameron, makes a great espresso martini

Rachel is seriously the best bartender! My husband and I were on vacation and we stopped by and she helped us right away even with the bar busy. The food and drinks were reasonably priced and tasted good! Definitely will recommend this place!

Love Panga!!! I'm so thankful the owners bought that bar and turned it into Panga! They've done an excellent job! Great food, great bar, and great outdoor area! I try to go over there on my pontoon boat every weekend!
