We ate at Manypenny Bistro twice during our trip to Cornucopia/Bayfield recently. The first time I ordered the Vegetable pizza minus the tomatoes and had ranch instead of tomato sauce. It was absolutely heavenly...one of the best pizza's I've ever eaten. My fiancé had a cheeseburger with cheddar cheese and fries. Be said the burger was the best burger he'd had in ages. The second time we ate there I had the Lemon Garlic pasta minus the lemon and added shrimp. It was pretty good, although there was entirely too much pasta, lol. I think I had a pound of pasta on my plate. My fiancé had the Lake Trout and garlic mash with cauliflower & broccoli. He said it was all really good, but the trout was beyond phenomenal. The service both times was exceptional. We both agree it was well worth the money and would definitely eat there again!

We were staying…read morein Herbster but no restaurants were open for breakfast (hardly any were open at all because its the end of the season!) so we headed east to Bayfield. This is a small, cute vintage place. I love the bar. Both of us had omelets, husband had a cheese omelet with a side of sausage patties and I had the veggie omelet with cheese and an English muffin. Breakfast was good (4 staras) and service was extremely friendly and fast and very affordable. My husband left his down vest and his sunglasses there and the owners made a special effort to come in the next day when they were closed so we could come by to pick it up so an extra star for friendly helpful problem solving.

Definitely if you're here, breakfast come over here. we ordered the Judith's skillet with hashbrowns, onions, mushrooms, tomato, sausage, and cheddar cheese.

There was some nice authentic vintage decor around the place, and the owner (I think) was chatting to some customers at another table, which was nice to see. The food, however, both in quality and portions, did not really match the more expensive price. It was fine, but not great, and maybe it was just because we came at the very end of the day, but I can't be sure, and probably wouldn't be back.

Two words: Whitefish livers…read more Where have these been all of my life? Granted, I'm a liver eater. Chopped chicken liver is one of my all time favorite things. Duck liver, goose liver, calves liver, cod liver, monkfish liver, sign me up. But somehow whitefish livers have evaded me. These were delicious! I also had what might have been the most midwestern meal ever. Cheese curds with ranch dressing, a plate of whitefish livers, and a sweet brandy old fashioned to wash it all down. On the specialty drinks menu I couldn't resist the Berens Brandy Old Fashioned. I mean, I have been a fan of Charlie Berens for a few years but I didn't realize he had his own brandy for the definitive cocktail of Wisconsin. It was delicious, but it also turned out to be $12. For my second round I just got a regular brandy old fashioned which was also quite good, but weighed in at five bucks. Let the buyer beware. Which is ultimately why Pier Plaza fell short of the fifth star. The prices feel a bit high for what it is. Granted, it's right by the water, in a remote part of the state, and thrives on tourists. And that's fine. I have no regrets and would absolutely recommend folks who might be passing through to stop in for a very Wisconsin meal. Portions are large, so plan accordingly.
