Food scene

For a little, small-town cafe, this place has a massive menu. Admittedly, I’ve only been here for breakfast (like a dozen times), but I’ve never had the same thing twice — and it never disappoints. Big servings, made fresh, hash browns done right, mmm gravy, perfect pancakes, eggcelent omelettes. I promise no one paid me to write this!

If you like frozen cocktails and live music up close and personal, this might be the place for you! The little outdoor terrace on the lake is a great spot to take in some sun while requesting your favorite Jimmy Buffet song. I do love their frozen concoctions — and their food is good too. If you’re a Karaoke fan, check their calendar for a chance to show off behind the mic!

I love bar food: draft beer, burgers, pizza and cheese curds (& more!). It’s a spacious place, nice menu, full bar, pool tables, darts, etc. Belly-up to the bar or grab a table. Just a hop, skip & jump away - worth it.

New ownership offering new menu items and daily specials. And since Birchwood is the “Bluegill Capital of Wisconsin”....

“Wine bar” in the refurbished, historic Creamery building. Really cool place on the river with nice patio and live music (call for times). Made-to-order pizza deal the deal for me.

I believe it’s only open for breakfast & lunch (closes Monday?). We often stop for breakfast on our early mornings back to the cities. Super friendly service, observe the local banter, have an omelette & cinnamon roll. Yum!

Quite possibly the best “Friday Fish Fry” around - all you can eat fish, chicken, fries & slaw. TIP: ARRIVE EARLY FRIDAY and plan to wait (full bar while you wait). The best places always have the longest waits. Sunday is a less-wait option that adds spaghetti to the fish fry options.

This friendly, small-town grocery store in Birchwood is just 5 min away. Open 365 days a year, it’s a convenient place to grab everything you need to cook at home, grill on the front deck or mix cocktails for the fire pit patio (or even a pail of ice cream?!).

Don’t let the ‘gas station pit stop’ fool you. I come here for the hand-dipped ice creamgrrr. Their broasted chicken and pizza are good for take-out.

Live Music @ The Pump House

Most weekends during the summer, you’ll find (and hear) live bands playing down at the Pump House, right on the lakefront. Boats and pontoons will drop anchor to while-away the day or even sing along and dance. The Pump House has a stocked bar and can even call in a food order from Cheers. If it’s your first time, you gotta try the “Duck-in-a-Bucket” — you’ll have something to show & tell later ;-)
