    The Fireside Theatre created a truly special holiday afternoon with its Sunday matinee of A Wonderful Life. The experience began with the Fireside's well-loved brunch, which felt relaxed, festive, and perfect for a Sunday outing. From fresh pastries and fruit smoothies to a generous buffet featuring chef-carved meats, Eggs Benedict, breakfast favorites, and a Bailey's Irish Cream cheesecake for dessert, brunch was a highlight all on its own. The matinee performance of A Wonderful Life captured everything audiences love about the classic story of George Bailey and Bedford Falls. The live musical stayed true to the heart of the film, celebrating kindness, community, and the reminder that every life has meaning. . The service throughout the afternoon was outstanding, and special recognition goes to Keegan, whose hard work, attentiveness, and professionalism truly stood out. Most of all, I enjoyed making a new memory with my family. The afternoon felt meaningful, joyful, and unhurried--exactly what a holiday outing should be, and one I would happily return for again.

    Example of a mix from the buffet; fried chicken, fried fish, baked salmon, meat balls, seafood pasta, Mac and cheese etc.

    We went with friends to see the Addams family musical. We enjoyed browsing the shops and had a cocktail before lunch in the beautiful lounge. The entire place is stunningly decorated. One ordered the Steak Diane and the rest of us ordered the butterflied shrimp with asparagus and mashed potatoes. Everyone enjoyed their orders along with two excellent breads; crispy crusted white and a maple nut bread that was especially tasty. The dessert was ice cream rolled in nuts with a sweet rolled wafer, and it was excellent. Our server was friendly and attentive. The show was a mix. At times it was fun, with upbeat songs and good jokes that landed well. At other times the humor fell flat and dialogue went low. So the rating would be a 5 for the food and venue and a 3 for the show. Will definitely be back, as it's always a good experience.

    Stupendous, spectacular, outstanding! This theater and production staff of the Adam's Family are superb! Each cast member was a perfect match with their performances and their performances work. Our entire party ranging from ages 31-63 enjoyed it immensely that we were still talking about it the next day. And the dinner! From the moment we walked into our table to the moment we left we felt special and completely satisfied starting with the welcoming and wonderful staff. Each course was enjoyable but the bread was like no other. Full of flavor in both selections we even had a second basket! The cocktails also like no where else I've ever had in the state of Wisconsin. There's shareable with 2 foot long straws which are super delicious as well as the show's signature drinks such as pistachio. Yum-O! The watercress soup was so creamy good and unlike any I've ever had. The steak Diane was a little too fatty with a few bites not edible but the flavor was good. It was accompanied with sweet fresh carrots and asparagus on point. The chicken Alfredo was so tender and scrumptious with the pasta a little overcooked. Dessert was a turtle sundae with a crushed nut rolled which was delicious and kind of reminded me of fried ice cream. all in all it was spectacular and wonderful experience.

    We had a good time attending the Legends in Concert: Elvis show! Unique show experience more like a concert. Service at Fireside Theatre was great especially with this being only my second time there and a first for the rest of the family. We also had my grandma in a wheelchair which we are all learning how to navigate. We were seated for brunch in a very easy access spot right off the walkway. The food was very good! My mother was uncertain about the flavor for the bread pudding and I told her to try it and well she may have ended up going back for thirds! It was a delicious sweet potato and praline bread pudding so good!! The cheesy hash browns and bacon were also a favorite of our group! We had a lot of help getting into the theater and the handicap row is set up where the wheelchair can just roll in or I the guest can sit in the chair and there is room to park devices. I do have to say it is quite a steep incline to get up there however so they will need someone pushing them and that is also hard! Then you just need to be careful on the incline down as well! Not all the bathrooms are wheelchair friendly for example the women's bathroom right next to the theater all the stalls are standard size which will not fit a wheelchair or likely a walker even. Back by the buffet there is a stand alone "family" bathroom this was the best bathroom with room for the wheelchair and someone to help aid if needed. The women's restroom right in the entrance to the building has a handicap stall however depending on need of assistance/wheelchair the door may not close this I am finding to be a common occurrence - I just stand outside the stall to keep the door shut and use my body to stand in the gap but just something to be aware of. That being said I'd recommend making your way to the restroom in the dining portion if ease of space is needed. We had a wonderful time and I'm looking forward to returning! We unfortunately missed out on the shops but there is always next time.

    We had a great experience at the Fireside. Food and drinks were excellent. Show was great. The service was great, they were very accommodating to our special needs. I am so grateful to the fireside and can't wait to go back!

    We had heard good things about the theater and decided to give it a shot. We ended up with a terrific meal, followed by a fabulous show. Did I mention shopping? We will definitely return for more entertainment and dining in the future. We arrived on a rainy evening. I was able to drop my partner at the door and found parking in the large parking lot. The individuals at the ticket booth were welcoming and did a great job telling us about the evening ahead. We took a brief look in the massive gift shop(s). We then headed to the restaurant. In addition to it being a cool space for dining, you could see the place ran very smoothly. We had a couple of drinks from their show inspired menu, received our salads and were then invited to the buffet. It offered something for everyone. All of the items we tried were prepared well and were very satisfying. Despite my partner not normally liking buffet style food, she said she would certainly go back for the Thursday night buffet. After dinner, we did a little more shopping before going into the theater. It is an intimate space, regardless of your seat choice. We then enjoyed a well acted performance for the next couple of hours. It was executed in a fantastic manner. Are the tickets cheap? No, but very worthwhile.

    A fantastic place that is a joy to have in Wisconsin. This was my first time visiting after hearing a lot about this gem. Their Easter Buffett was good; being the mini-pastries and pineapple smoothie (that the servers welcomed us with), the highlight of the meal. The gift shops are very fun and they do a great job at keeping them stocked in themes. My favorite was the musical section. The musical instrument ornaments were top notch. Of excellent quality. The play was great and the performances outstanding. The theatre is intimate, and even if you sit all the way in the back, you'll feel like you are right there by the stage. A great place for theatre fans!

    Fireside is a very unique place. There's a huge parking lot. Then when you enter there are a few gift shops in the main hallway, a theater, a small bakery, and a huge restaurant. We went on a Friday for dinner and had to get a reservation. It's a busy spot on Friday nights because of their fish fry. The restaurant is very big with a lower bar area, different levels and rooms, a large fireplace, and small ponds/water throughout the space. A very unique spot! We started the meal with sweet old fashioneds. So good! They include a cinnamon stick that gives it a nice kick. Then they served complimentary bread. I'm not a fan of rye bread but the cheese bread was delicious. For my meal, I enjoyed their beer battered cod fish fry. The 4 piece was plenty of food. They were crispy and perfectly cooked. I had fries on the side that were crispy and pretty good. I think they have the best fish fry and old fashioned in the area. Our waitress was very nice. They were busy but did a good job. We loved the bread so on our way out I stopped at the bakery to grab a loaf. It wasn't as good as the bread on our table so I would skip it next time, but I love the idea of having this bakery option on the way out. Overall, it's a fun place to go for dinner, I would recommend checking it out especially for their fish fry.

    Unique stage. Round part goes up and down and flush with floor to create a full stage

    I have been going to shows at the dinner theater since I was a young kid. The shows are marvelous and affordable. The intimate stage that is surrounded by people from all angles present a fun and unique atmosphere for plays and musicals. I love to see how they curate each set. And the food is pretty darn good. I especially love attending the brunch option and trying the featured cocktail menu for each show. Everyone is welcoming and provides great customer service. If you've never been, you must add this to your list. It's a wonderful local gem that attracts talent from across the county.

    The torch has been passed to a new generation of!!!

    On January 26th, 2025, at 1:15 p.m., the skies over the Fireside Dinner Theatre in Fort Atkinson Wisconsin were illuminated with an effervescent light that can be seen for miles. Why? Because inside the cozy fireside theater, Elvis fans were buzzing with excitement, eagerly waiting for the start of the tribute show dedicated to the one and only King of Rock and Roll, Elvis Presley. The Elvis performers, Travis Powell and Taylor Rodriguez, along with their band members and ensemble members blew everyone away with their incredible performance. They rocked the circular stage with such passion that it felt like they owned the place. The thunderous applause, cheers, and laughter echoed through the theater, leaving everyone craving more. And guess what? They got it! They had been given an unforgettable experience! And speaking of unforgettable, proving again that Elvis only surrounds himself with the best annd the brightest Ensemble member Kieu T. Grisby proved flexibility is key to perform on stage. He transformed his right leg into a makeshift guitar and played air guitar alongside the band and Elvis as they jammed. Amidst all the cheering, he hopped around the stage on one leg, an amazing feat (or would that be foot) that left the audience spellbound. (You have to see it to believe it!) This concert wasn't just a special event for everyone in the audience. It was also a momentous occasion for a young man who had been a die-hard Elvis fan at the fireside for seven years. Back in 2017, during his first visit as an early teenager, he got a scarf from Elvis, and that left such an impression on him as Elvis is his hero. He had been hoping maybe this would be another lucky year. (Scarves stopped being given out because of COVID) His front-row seat and Elvis-inspired outfit caught the performers' attention, and he was lucky enough to be given a scarf by Elvis and it was captured by the kindness of a staff member! After the show, we got to meet the entertainers, and they were so nice and took photos with him. The Fireside theater proved once again why it's such a great place to go for a family night out. They have amazing food and entertainment, and it's always a fun time and great memories for everyone

We were very close to the kitchen area. Their pizza oven is cool, I think I should have ordered pizza. We ordered onion rings and a meatball for apps. We asked the waitress if that was too much for an app and she said no but when it came out it could have been our meal. The portions are huge. Wish we would have known. The onion rings were good but the meatball didn't have much flavor. The waitress was nice and checked in often. Unfortunately, our app order was submitted with our dinner order so everything came out all at the same time. It's always a bit overwhelming when that happens and ends up being too much food to eat at once. It would have been nice to be spaced out, especially with big portions. I had fried chicken and fries and my husband had a pasta dish. Both dishes were rich so we didn't eat too much. The table behind us ordered the pizza which looked good! They do have an awesome patio and the night we were here they had live music with an outdoor bar. Great vibe! They have a great location right on the main street with easy street parking. We are not in a rush to return, however I think they have a lot of potential.

This said, while charming... sitting by the windows in the winter is a bit chilly. I had a rye Manhattan crafted with the local Dancing Goat distillery Rey... while I don't think this distillery is as of yet actually distilling- rather they are barrel aging their spirits... the manhattan was very good. The menu is not huge and that's fine. Big, poorly crafted menus don't really add to dining experiences. In addition to the menu several nightly specials were offered. I opted for one of them, a nice baked/broiled cod... actually seemed like it was pan seared in a French technique of basting with butter. In any case, it was very nice... I quite fancied it. I substituted a twice baked potato for the rice pilaf after seeing one being delivered to a nearby table. The cod was laid on a little bed of greens and came with reasonably portioned side of glazed carrots. My companion had the raspberry salad and was quite pleased with it. We did also start with an order of onion rings... also because I saw an order going out for service. Large, crunchy rings with a side of ranch... really quite tasty. Would I go to Plow again... sure, might avoid a window seat in the winter, and or go in warmer weather as it looks like they probably have a great patio.
