Signature Burger with German Fries
Brian M.

This is my second visit to the 'we Boston Tavern. I came (both times) with a group on a retreat to St Mienrad. It is a close drive from St Mienrad. They have a fairly good selection of standard American beers and a few crafts to choose from as well. There is outdoor seating in the back - we're we sat. I asked the waitress to make my selection for me. She selected the Signature Burger - something on the menu, but they will make it when they are not too busy. It was very good. A bacon cheese burger with fried jalapeños and pepper jack cheese. The burger was good, the German fries were good too. Many people in my group had the pork chops. They all said how amazing they were. Great service, great food, great fun.

Cute small country spot. They allow kids and have a full bar. Prices are super low and the food is good. Great spot to stop and grab a bite.

Catfish fillet

This place is awesome. Very chill, middle of nowhere, all the locals eat here kind of place. Good country/southern food. Awesome place to go after you went to Holiday World for the day. I had the catfish fillet and my date had the fried chicken. Both were delicious. They also have Yuengling on tap! We've been twice and now it's a must-visit when we go to Holiday World for the weekend.

Casey is right...a hidden gem! Not so hidden for locals mind you. After living here for 6 months, I lost track of the amount of times I was told to try this place! Everyone brags about how great the food is, so we finally made a point to go. Now mind you, it's not "out-of-the-ordinary" when it comes to food type. It's what they eat in So. IN...pork tenderloins, fried chicken, mashed taters, green beans soaking in bacon, yadda yadda. So don't expect to come and get any type of turkey roll or sweet potato fries, etc. What you do need is some time and huge appetite!! The amount of food they serve you is outrageous!! My husband, son and I could have eaten my fried chicken dinner and still would have had left overs. My son ordered the popcorn chicken with fries and onion rings and each food came with its own plate...large plate! Seriously enough food for an Army. My hubs ordered the pulled pork and loved it. All the food was incredibly tasty. Like I said, it's popular with locals, so you may stand for a while waiting for a table and while you do, don't expect anyone working there to acknowledge you until it's time to seat you...AND you're basically standing and waiting in the middle of the restaurant, which is extremely awkward given that everyone there is starting at you trying to figure out how you fit in to the local gossip network. Luckily we're new! Once seated however, the waitresses are fast and friendly. Popular on Friday and Saturday nights for their bar as well. Totally worth the drive if you're in the area or visiting Holiday World!

Breakfast, too.

Kitschy, yes, but despite that the food is genuinely spectacular…read more Bratwurst was super flavorful and cooked perfectly with a caramelized outside, a good snap, and a moist inside. The pretzel bun was heated appropriately and had the right amount of flavor. The optional spicy mustard is really powerful. My only possible complaint would be that the spatzle were a bit on the soggy side, perhaps overcooked. That said, the spatzle also come with an incredible sauerbraten gravy. My only regret, really, is not having had dessert.

Lots of nostalgia here for me, as my family always loved to make the hour-ish trek here when I was…read morea kid...and I feel like it's held up well to those memories after a recent visit when I was in the area. Atmosphere is fun, it really embraces the German decor (saw a review or too calling it kitschy, in a good way, which I think is a fair description). Service is friendly and attentive (and in the costumed German garb to keep with the themes). Lots of classic German dishes (several schnitzel varieties, brats, spatzel, etc.). I won't say anything I've had over the years blows me away, but haven't had a bad choice either. The Wiener schnitzel I had most recently was tender and tasty, with a perfectly fried batter, and the German fries were nicely crisped on the exterior and beautifully seasoned. Good beer selection (including some brewed for the restaurant), reasonable wine list...love that you can go all out and have your beer in the classic giant boot! Small gift shop as well, some souvenir items as well as some candies and food options.
