A solid 3.5 for this lovely townie bar! It's a typical Wisconsin dive bar with a real chill vibe…read more It's a great spot for a cheap drink or bite to eat. The same crowd hangs around and feel very much at home at Landmark. It's surprisingly clean for a dive bar and has very nice games/slot machines. They don't have a lot of beers on tap and they don't have a soda gun for mixed drinks but they do have plenty of liquor, cans, and bottles to choose from. For food, they offer burgers, chicken and steak sandwiches, hot dogs, and brats. Very basic but gets the job done! They have tvs, pull tabs, darts, a modern juke box, and slot machines to entertain you during your visit. They have their own parking lot and are located right in downtown deforest. I wouldn't go out of my way to visit but enjoy being a regular in our small DeFo town!

Rustic ambiance with a mix of high and low table seating as well as a good amount of space to belly up to the bar. Service was excellent. The servers worked great as a team and our order was taken promptly, food came out steaming hot, tables were bussed quickly. Great teamwork. I had to have the smash burger as it seems to be a signature item. It was so good! Two huge patties. I got mine with bacon, lettuce, tomato, and sauted onions. Fresh. Delicious. Love the little crisp on the smash burger. So good. My side was a salad but I may have stolen a fry just for a taste test and they had my approval. I can't believe we almost drove away. Do not do that. Go in. Enjoy the experience.

Menu is very limited, but that didn't matter to us. We were going to check out the burgers. Hamburger with a slice of raw onion, two bacon cheese burgers (their specialty) with a slice of raw onion and a side of fries, and a veggie wrap rounded out our order. Burgers were a good size and cooked well. Meat was coarse grind which we like. Fries were nothing special but came hot to the table. The wrap was underwhelming. Service was friendly. Food was better than average but place needed a good cleaning, especially the cooking grill and back room which was visible. 4 stars is generous. Likely not return until cleanliness is addressed.

You won't run into Peter here, but you'll meet other delightful people -- locals and vacationers. Most of the time, it's closed, but on the rare occasion that you find this building open (usually a weekend evening during warmer weather), it's a bit of a delight. Owned and operated by the people who run Twin Shores next door, this little building has a tiny, crowded bar with one table, and several outdoor tables. The drinks here are the same as the drinks at Twin Shores. It's a perfect spot for an after dinner drink when you want to sit outside and breathe in the fresh lake air on a warm summer night.
