We're traveling to Green Bay and needed a quick lunch near Wisconsin Rapids. We saw Culver's. We'll known and good burgers and fries...but my trusted dining companion, Yelp, told me about a little diner, open only until 2:00 p.m. called Misty's Menu, so we headed there for a burger, fries, and soup. My wife ordered homemade beef noodle soup (delicious). My 1/3 lb hand-pattied burger was served on a perfectly toasted potato bun which was bakery fresh! I'm very particular about fries. These were nearly perfect. Crinkle-cut, crispy, and thank heaven's not coated! Coated fries are the lazy diner's way of adding crispness to fries. Simply change your fryer oil frequently and you'll get crisp, delicious fries - like Misty's! My cup of chili contained elbow pasta but lacked salt in my opinion. My table shaker fixed that and I enjoyed the small sample of their homemade chili. Our server, Harmony, was prompt, well trained, friendly and attentive. She displayed a good sense of humor and connected with us. So, no offense to Culver's but our $17.97 meal was fast, fresh, and served with a smile! So its Culver's No, Misty's Yes in my opinion! Give this place a try for breakfast or lunch. read more

Food is very good with a wide selection. Service, between breakfast and lunch 'usual' time, was fast. Parking is adequate. A nice touch was serving sugar free syrup with the regular. One ' negative', was the waitress was VERY LOUD! High on life perhaps but LOUD. Not any need for loudness even if happy. Quiet (er) happy would be just fine and still make customers feel welcome. Just my opinion of course. We had been here a few years ago and stopped coming, but could not remember why. Think I know why!! If not a louder server, than a crying child. One other observation... The waitresses seem to hover to much,especially when clearing the table, almost as the plate was cleared! A bit much. read more

This is an old school, way-it-used-to-be, coffee shop style of diner, the kind of place you see in Film Noir movies but seldom find anymore. It's an older building with low ceilings and faded wallpaper that give you the feel of being back in Grandma's kitchen. Tin signs of all kinds, northwoods-themed bar mirrors, and one-liner signs line the walls with whimsical eye candy. It's a comfortable place to be, even when it's jam packed with people waiting to get it. And they're lined up to get in because the food is worth the wait! (When you have to wait for a parking place at a restaurant, you know it's gonna be a good place to be.) A very complete breakfast menu offers just about anything you might wish. The servers hustle, they are good at what they do, and they're all friendly and smiling. Kerry took care of us, and she was a pleasure to deal with, and to watch. She's an expert at balancing several hot dishes to serve her tables, and sometimes carries extra dishes for adjacent tables! She had a very amusing interaction with a young man at another table while I smiled at her interaction with him. Back to the food. We ordered a daily special quiche that included fresh melon, grapes, and a huge strawberry as a garnish. (And a double-chocolate muffin!) I ordered a blueberry pancake that was the size of a hubcap. After slathering it with butter and applying the supplied Boysenberry syrup, I had quite a task to finish it all. An added note: bakery is fresh made on premises. Misty's Menu is known far and wide for their pie, but all their baked goods are incredible, breads, muffins, scones, et. al. are also served with menu items. With the size of the portions, you probably won't have room for pie - so take some with you. Really. Don't miss the pie! A gift shop right next door (same parking lot) is worth a stop, too. From now on, Misty's Menu will be a regular stop for us when we're in the Rapids. read more

Amazing food and delightful service. Diverse menu with wide selection of baked goods and desserts. Very friendly service!

Sad to see this place lose the it's old identity of a friendly staff, fair prices and just all around a great place. That's changed they are getting cheap here smaller portions and a 20% up charge (posted on random sheets of paper) if your going to raise prices just be honest and don't make up lies to justify the hike. The staff has significantly gone down hill what use to be super friendly staff is now people who appear they would rather be anywhere else. (Especially the lady with the crazy skirts never have I been treated so poorly and then to watch her snap at another table as well is just wrong) I'd avoid this place from now on everyone. Plenty of good food within a few miles drive. Sure hope this place would get back to its old roots but it looks like greed and superiority is driving this dive of a diner. read more

Great customer service and comforting breakfast foods. You can tell lots of people regular this place! Happy we stopped in during our trip up from Chicago! read more

Love their skillets. Friendly waitresses, good pies, and good eggs benedict.Only complaint they are always full so there's usually a little wait read more

My wife and I have driven by this place numerous times. We finally had the opportunity to stop in. The dining area is what you would expect from a small dinner. A bar type seating for single patrons. Clean and roomy. The dining area was a mix between tables and booths. The waitress told us to pick any seat, as it wasn't too busy. Understandable being after 1300 and it closes at 1400. The daily specials were on a whiteboard. Along with a list of available pies. (Something I will save room for next time) The normal menu had a good variety of breakfast and lunch items. The back of the menu had the breakfast and lunch specials. Those are time based so keep that in mind. My Wife ordered hot tea and I got a pink lemonade. When the server brought my wife's tea, it included a carafe of hot water to make more tea if she desired. The server also asked if she wanted honey or lemon. Which was supplied in a good amount. My wife ordered the jalapeno burger with tater tots. I ordered the grilled ham and cheese with potato wedges. (not many places serve potato wedges, a big plus for me) She offered sour cream for my wedges. I'm not a big fan of it so I declined. Food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Wife's hamburger was good. It game with a toasted bun, jalapeno cheese, bacon, and mushrooms along with the patty of course. Wife said it was good. Her tater tots were good also. I did snag some. My grilled ham and cheese was on white bread. You can taste the butter in the slices of bread. The amount of ham and cheese were excellent. It tasted good. I'm a basic guy so not having all those fancy things other places add was a pleasant surprise. The wedges were great. TL;DR Food is great, Staff is friendly and prompt, Prices are good for what you get. read more

Great place for breakfast or lunch. Home made pies are also a must. Decor is not much, but is made up with the friendly greeting and service. Everything is priced right. read more

Yes there was a wait, it was Father's Day, but it was all worth it. My daughter got a cinnamon roll that was amazing. I got the corned beef hash and it was done to perfection. The waitress was entertaining and kept us refilled on our drinks and coffee while we waited. Definitely will return! read more

We normally have a great breakfast at Misty's, but the past few times have been a letdown. The last visit, we ordered a Denver Omelet with American cheese and two different skillets - omelet was weirdly prepared and cheese unmelted while the skillets caused some unfortunate digestive issues... Not sure if there was a change in the kitchen that day in particular. Any case, it's a been bummer. We now prefer Perkins. Hope things turn around! We'd love to support you. read more

This is a MUST stop for anyone in the area. I felt like I was at home ... Southern Cooking has come to Wisconsin. The food was excellent and the family atmosphere was worth the wait... that's right ... the wait. There was a line to get in and i understand why. read more

Cute little place. Friendly people, good portion sizes, taste great. I never had a bad meal there in ten years that I lived here

About 4 miles south of Rapids on the east side of the road adjacent to a small antique shack; very down home looking diner. The hostess was very fun and engaging. We were seated and our order taken promptly. Breakfast was very well prepared. My standard for breakfast service is biscuits and sausage gravy, if they take the time to get this right I am encouraged. Well it was the best I've had in decades, no exaggeration. Homemade wheat bread was also very well baked. You must request condiments. Coffee was diner average to my taste. Had a slice of pumpkin cream pie that was beautifully light and airy and with consistent texture throughout just this side of a mousse. The pie was just the right amount of pumpkin and spice. It was only about at half capacity on a weekday when I stopped in. If I want a tasty breakfast I'll drive the 24 miles here knowing I'll get what I paid for. As always, Tip your server ours was mature and responsive for being the only one on that day. read more

Outstanding breakfast fare. Good social distancing too. Homemade breads were delicious and unexpected. Definitely a return trip earned.

Food is good. Owner must be preparing g for retirement as the place ain't what it used to be.

This was a great experience. The only down side was the lack is leg room at the counter. Once you choose the counter you can't very moved to a table. Pie wad awesome. Food was quick, delicious and inexpensive. read more

Misty's Menu - We're so glad we stopped! DELICIOUS and cheery! - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin

We went to Misty's for breakfast because we always saw that the parking lot was full. We entered and it was packed. We waited approximately 5 minutes and got 2 seats at the breakfast bar. It is cozy and down home in atmosphere and it is a bustling place. The menu is loaded with anything you would want. We had a couple of specials and we were more than satisfied about the prices, quality of food and the service. Excellent on all counts. Homemade bread, pies and perfectly cooked food, what else could you want! read more

We were traveling through for the cross country state meet, stoped for a quick bite to eat! Everything we ordered was top notch delicious! Our server kept us laughing even the teenagers with us! You can never have too much homemade bread or pie! We will be back! read more

Cute little place. Friendly people, good portion sizes, taste great. I never had a bad meal there in ten years that I lived here.

Service was outstanding, everyone was very pleasant and the menu has something for everyone. I had the skillet with chorizo and polish sausage. It was outstanding. The wife had the breakfast sandwich. Also very good. Been here a couple times and it has never disappointed. Will return again. read more

My family has a cabin near "the Rapids" and every time we head up, we have to eat breakfast at Misty's. Good food at a very reasonable price. My favorite is the "stacker", which is eggs, biscuits and gravy, but substituting hashbrown potatoes for the biscuits. The service is great - very friendly, down-to-Earth folks. You should also try the home-baked pies and breads - very tasty! read more

I had seen these place for years and never stopped in then one day I did it was to die for the homemade bread for a quarter more can't beat it thick sliced read more

This place is amazing! Not only was the staff great, the place was clean and the food was fantastic. Everyone at the table got something different from the menu and all the food came out hot, fresh and phenomenal. I would recommend the biscuits and gravy or even the country fried steak. Can't say enough good things about this place, we will surely be back!! read more

This restaurant is a true find. It is like eating at Grandma's house. We went this Friday morning, and per usual, it was full with at least 10 people waiting, inside and out. Why? Great homemade food, great prices-and the bread and pies...! I had the kielbasa omelet with cranberry nut bread toast. It was $5.49. What's the old adage? "Go to the restaurant where you see the most cars, because you know the food will be good and reasonably priced." That's Misty's! read more

First timers and fell in love with the staff and food. Great atmosphere and very affordable. We will definitely be bk! Thx@
