Upon approach it gives you a 1800's western vibe as it's along train tracks and appears to be a period correct building. Many flags hang above the front of the building as you walk in. I came to find out someone stole an American flag and Thin Blue Line flag (Law enforcement support) in the recent weeks and that was a shame to hear. There is a fenced in smaller outdoor patio on the east side of the building. As you can imagine 9 non locals walking into a bar at 1130am could be met with stares or with hellos. We received many hellos and the bar staff was prompt to take our orders. A majority of us ordered a Bloody Mary and we're all glad we did. They were amazing with a spotted cow chaser. The space was completely remodeled with a modern western feel. It did not take away from the age of the building. The large horseshoe bar was comfortable and spacious. The owner was very polite and we will surely be back!

One thing that's great about this spot is that they offer all of their drinks as 0 ABV so it makes it super easy and enjoyable for those who are not drinking to still feel catered to and can enjoy a fancy beverage - however I will note that they are as pricey as the cocktails since they use a fancy alcohol in the drinks that is zero proof! Service is super easy ordering at the counter indoors and you can peruse and look at all of the cute curated items, books & records while you wait. The outdoor seating is ample and lovely with their giant striped umbrellas and blue Adirondack chairs as well as other seating options - and fire pits for when the weather turns chilly! Overall love this spot and will continue to pop in when we have the chance.

The drinks are all so fun and what's so great is they all can be made zero proof! Plus it's kid friendly as well and most nights they even have some type of entertainment. Our server was amazing! The decor is adorable. Needless to say will definitely be making the 30 minute drive more often.

The only reason this place is not getting 5 stars is because that bathroom was GROSS. Seriously the worst bathroom I've been in ages. I will not go into detail because seriously, barf. Hold it if you need to go while here. Service: Our waitress was friendly and split the bills accurately. She did a great job clearing plates as they were emptied and refilling water too. Drinks: Amazinggggg. They make really great craft cocktails. I would definitely come back here just for the drinks. Our table ordered a bunch of different drinks but the one that really stood out was the Codependant. I don't know if I can recreate that at home but I sure as heck am going to try. Food: We obviously ordered a bunch of plates for the table. The one that REALLY stood out was the whipped feta appetizer. I could eat two plates of that all by myself and order nothing else. An item that was really interesting was the Blueberry Goat Cheese Pinsa, it is literally dessert pizza, super unique flavor combo, everyone liked it. I recommend ordering this to end your meal! The rest of the dishes were good but nothing I would rave about to other people. Next time I'm down here visiting family I would definitely come back for the Codependant and the Whipped Feta app!

We had a Bulldog Burger done to perfection. The flavor was done so well. The Maple Bacon Chicken Sandwich was big enough for two meals. Add the sweet potato fries and your meal is complete. The Veggie Poke Bowl was incredible, with the seaweed being prepared just right. Sitting outside on the patio is delightful. The ambiance is nice, but I believe. you need to ask to access it from the street level if you have mobility issues, as their stairs to the front door and again down to the patio. There is a patio gate so I assume this could be done. But the restrooms are not accessible to a wheelchair. Even the presentation of the drinks and food is done well. It is worth a stop anytime you are in town.

They have plenty of room both inside and outside, with a cute patio right on the river. I have yet to get something on their menu that I haven't liked, today it was the brisket melt, bacon brie burger, and buffalo lemon pepper fries, which were all so delightful. They also change up their menu items frequently, so every time I'm there, they always have something new for me to try. They have a long beer list, definitely making it hard to choose just one, however I opted for a spicy bloody, which was delicious. The servers were great and all of our food came out hot, in a timely manner. Overall, we love Stilt House for a casual lunch spot in downtown Cedarburg!

For a 16oz of beer it's $7 which I think is reasonable but you can also get smaller oz for cheaper so if you're not a heavy drinker or just was a little bit of one of their new beers they do have that option. They had a great patio with a live band when we stopped by so we know this place is a popular spot in the summer. It's sits right next to cedar creek and the area is so pretty with the water and trees. Inside it's really cool with a water mill inside and the inside gives very patriotic vibes.

Set inside a historic bed and breakfast, The Five20 Social Stop is like something you'd see in a Hallmark movie set in a sweet little town. So welcoming and inviting, we were immediately comfortable. The room is small with vintage rock/stone walls. The antique bar fits the room perfectly. Warm lighting with whimsical decor, the whole vibe is reminiscent of an antique lodge. There were just a few people enjoying the live music - a duo singing classic tunes. They sounded fantastic! Given we are in the middle of a pandemic I was surprised they offered live music and relieved everyone was spaced out. It was my friend's birthday so they sang Happy Birthday along with everyone in the entire pub! I later found out that the singer was one of the owners. The woman at the table across the way was his wife and was the other owner. This husband and wife duo could not have been more gracious and hospitable. I noticed that there was an air purifier right next to our table which made me feel a little better. I wasn't sure I wanted to socialize quite as much as we were doing, but it was my friend's birthday so we kept our masks on and enjoyed a few songs before we headed out. Once the crazy virus gets under control, I would love to come back and stay at this dear little bed and breakfast situated in the heart of downtown on their main street. It would be perfect for a romantic get away, a girlfriend's weekend or a family vacation. I plan on enjoying their authentic little pub every night that I'm there. During warm weather they have a great outdoor patio in the back and offer live music out there. I am very much looking forward to returning because of the quaint atmosphere, delicious cocktails, talented entertainment and kind owners!

They have a very large selection of cheeses from Wisconsin, the US, and abroad, with lots of unique offerings. We tried a chicken soup Monterrey jack and a mustard Gouda, both of which we really enjoyed. The chicken soup cheese actually tastes like chicken broth from a rich soup, which was definitely a new experience. The room is decorated and bright, and felt like a great spot to stop on a Saturday afternoon. It's a nice change of pace from the usually-crowded bars through downtown Cedarburg. You should be aware that the tasting room apparently can't serve charcuterie boards themselves because of the class of license (maybe no food service cert.) but they're happy to help you enjoy any of the cheeses you purchased in the store and offer you some wine(s) to accompany them. The bartender graciously offered us some crackers to go with the plate and we were able to put together a satisfying little wine tasting experience! The one thing I would like to see is a few more wines on offer for the wine flights; at the time, they were a bit heavy on sweet white wines, which is just not my taste but may be popular in the area. They also have a cocktail list, beers, and their own brand of several liquors, so there are plenty of options. We will be back for a nice afternoon glass of wine and some cheese. It's also a good source of reasonably priced cheeses and wine if you want to have a picnic at the parks nearby.
