We enjoyed our stop at Red Rooster. We started with coffees, the strawberry-rhubarb pie (for my…read morewife), and the saffron bread, which was kind of a soda bread but really loaded with saffron - great! Then we got figgyhobbin, pecan pie, and pasties to go. The pasties were bland but tastier than Sheboygan-style, and their robust crust is truly indestructible, great for microwave re-heating. We had a nice repartee with the counter lady.

The place looks cute inside. I saw a lot of food that probably was good but I decided to have their specialty, the pasty. I've had them at many places and have enjoyed them. This is by far the worst one I've ever had in my life. Everything about it was bad. I would give this place another try but I'd never order that again. And I hope I would never see that woman again. Other people in the place were nice and the other food did look good. And as I said, It's a cute place, old fashioned.

This review is just about the hotel, just so you know…read more This hotel was interesting. Not the best, yet not the worst. First of all, when we walked in (a family of 4) there was one bed only. Not an issue for most, but I thought someone was sleeping on the floor. Nope. Pull out bed, with some sad blankets. They did provide for a comfy sleep, however. It would be nice to have a smart tv in line with current trends, since it's good to be able to watch my own shows and movies. The bathroom was fine, bathtub had pink streaks??? Shower maybe needed another door besides the curtain already there, I was very scared of getting water on the floor. The toilet paper was one ply. Hmm. Overall, I wouldn't stay here again. They did leave us macarons and a fun notepad, but it could be a bit better.

The vibe in the building is adorable, comfortable, and homey. but ALWAYS make a reservation, they're a small establishment and are very good, so a reservation is necessary. and if you are planning on eating there during the summer, make sure to make the reservation weeks in advance, they're booked quick because, well it's great, and summers busy. If you are unable to do stairs though, make sure you request the downstairs area!

Located across the river from Maine St, this quaint old house turned restaurant is worth the stop…read more There is on street and public parking available. I would recommend making reservations as it was consistently busy. We opted for seats at the bar to avoid an hour wait. This place is tiny, so it would not be ideal for large groups. It would be difficult to accommodate someone who could not navigate stairs (there are both stairs to enter as well as a staircase for most of the dining space). Servers were friendly and helpful, the right amount of attentive. The food came out quickly. They offer light lunch, brunch, breakfast fare, with specials, and baked goods from Lola. A popular special is a homemade pop tart, which has rotating flavors (today was blueberry with lemon frosting). We opted for French Toast, pork belly, and the country skillet. Everything was delicious and portions were generous. All around a great find.

A pretty busy place with locals and people from other areas. There's about what's expected on the menu it seems. Before even coming in there's a smell of barbecue. It's got a pretty full menu. There's a bar in the middle surrounded by plenty of tables. Beers are the main thing of course. It's about $7 a pint. Best one we had of these was the Coldstream Lager. This is a full bodied Bavarian style. A lot of the food is meaty. Brisket and that kind of stuff. Among the appetizers is the Cowboy Caviar. One of the few vegetarian options. This is a mixture of beans, cilantro, corn, jalapeños, red onions, and tomatoes. It's about $16 for the Tex-Mex Bowl. This has avocado, cilantro rice, Cowboy Caviar, marinated cucumbers, pico de gallo, and Thai sauce. Of course an option is to get it with meats added. There's plenty more things including burgers and pork belly tacos among the livestock based foods. For around here it's one of the better places for big crowds. It's got beers and barbecue along with some healthier options. They're closed Mondays and Tuesdays.

After talking to our wonderful waitress and telling her it's our first time here, she suggested to us the Ribeye Philly Sandwich and the Aloha Burger and the Cheese Curds for an appetizer. After looking at the menu for a few minutes, I chose the Ribeye Philly Sandwich and Jr chose the Junction burger. We both subbed fries for the chips and also ordered a 1/2 order of onion rings and the Cheese Curds. The Cheese Curds were amazing. I've never had such great tasting cheese curds before. The onion rings were cooked perfectly. Both our sandwiches were outstanding. We both said "were coming back here again". Gotta try more stuff here! Thank you!

I gave the waitress $100.00 (5 twenties) on a $69.00 dollar check and requested change for the tip. Unfortunately she returned with $11.00 and some small change and when i pointed out she was 20 short she seemed confused and went back to the bar to check. After another short exchange between me and her she went again to the bar and returned with my 20 so I'm okay. I just hope she didn't get stiffed by the guy behind the bar who rang up the bill and they figured out the mistake. P.S. She ended up with the 20 cause i still didn't have change for the tip.

A Hidden Gem for Strikes, Bites, and Vibes!…read more If you're looking for a place that nails nostalgia and flavor, this bowling alley bar and grill is it. The staff always shows genuinely friendly service--actually care if you're having a good time, and it shows. The retro bowling lanes are straight out of a '70s postcard (in the best way). Think neon signs, classic wood lanes, and vintage vibes that make you want to bust out your best high-waisted jeans and a Fleetwood Mac playlist. But the real surprise? The food. This is not your average greasy alley fare. Everything had a fresh, Cali-inspired twist-- the special was a fried avocado burger, the midway burger which is the signature staple should honestly be illegal its so delishhhhh. The cocktails were cold and of course the Old Fashion was a great drink to have while being in Wisconsin. Whether you're rolling a perfect game or just came for the eats, this place hits all the right notes. Great service, cool atmosphere, and food that punches way above its weight class. Pro tip: Go on a weeknight for easier lane access and call in advance to make sure lanes are available!

Didn't seem too busy on a Sunday morning. I would recommend coming here.
