Brunkild Bar & Grill
I spent a couple of very fun nights, too many years ago to be mentioned here, at this rural joint, which was in much better looking shape then. Friends living in a nearby community invited me to see a band from Winnipeg that was very good, even though its lead singer looked like Harry Hamelin. It is hard to believe that anyone could have considered a cheeseball like HH to be attractive and a star actor, but some, including my then girlfriend, did at the time.
Anyway the band and the place rocked. The bar still advertises itself as a fun place and is proud to refer to itself as "Manitoba's favourite dive bar." As the pictures in the Facebook link show, it has lots of good neon inside, so I shall have to make a future appearance with camera.
I thought that I could get a better shot of the sign away from the highway on the other side but the east side of the sign is missing.
