Inside it was your typical small town tavern. They had a patio at the back. For happy hour they give you a pull tab. You might pay full price or as little as $0.25 for the round. They offered bottles of New Glarus Brewing, but mainly served domestic cans. We learned the business was named after the owner nicknamed Koolaid (now deceased). We also learned he passed far too young and was the nicest guy you'd ever have met. Linda (the bartender and cook) and Bruce (the bar-back and handyman) were a hoot.

What an incredible experience! We ended up here to use our token from the New Glarus Brewery and it…read morewas sooo worth it! The employees couldn't have been any nicer. The variety of options was fantastic. The concept of getting a card and pouring however much you want is great. You can take smaller pours until you find the right option. I personally loved the New Glarus raspberry beer. There is free popcorn as well as a food menu. The beer garden to the side is super cute and perfect for a summer day. There was even live music the day we were there. The live musician was very talented and elevated the experience. Thanks Dirty Dog Taphaus for the fun experience!

A historic corner tavern since 1880 in New Glarus . During Oktoberfest we stopped in for lunch…read more Service was quick and friendly. It reminded me of an old time diner . My husband had cheese curds and chicken bacon ranch wrap with fries. The wrap was generous and chicken was tender and fried. I had the chicken salad sandwich with fries. I have not had a chicken salad sandwich in a very long time and was not disappointed. The chicken was chunky, complimented with sweet cranberries and served on wheat toast. The coziness, friendliness and food options gave off a small town feel. If in the area a good option for food.

Super friendly service serving food that tastes great! Started with the Frickles...crispy breaded pickle chips served with ranch...not greasy and cooked just right. I had a cup of their New Glarus chili which is made fresh daily with New Glarus beer loaded with beef,tomatoes,beans and spices. Topped with sour cream and local cheddar cheese. I skipped the diced onions. It was so good I wish I ordered a bowl! My wife had their homemade chicken salad sandwich on a gluten free bun (1.00 extra). The chicken salad had dried cranberries and pecans which made it super delicious. For a side she had their homemade bean salad. A great place to stop to try local beers and homemade food while enjoying the small town of New Glarus!

This restaurant in New Glaris Wisconsin caught our eye because it looked like an authentic Swiss…read morerestaurant. We ordered the Swiss fondue. It came with bread and for an extra up charge you could order a plate of vegetables as well. We had more than enough bread, and we ate most of the vegetables. I would've liked to have seen maybe broccoli or cauliflower instead of cucumbers and tomatoes. But that's just my personal choice. Service was very good. Overall, we had a lovely time and it was very busy. So prepared to wait a bit if you're going on a weekend.

Luckily for us, our bartender was nice enough to give us a heads up and suggested a few other places for a hot meal. It was the day 12/26. Cold and overcast.

We noticed the $2 dollar bills pinned on the walls and throughout the ceiling:) There is a story about that you all need to look up! We look forward to our next visit in 2026!
