Charming doesn't begin to describe how wonderful this place is. Run don't walk because you going to need to burn off all those cheese curds.

What a gem! Come here for the atmosphere at least. You walk through the door & you are transported back in time. The service is super-friendly. Don't expect any frills, just straight forward casse croute food. The star turn here is that they brew their own spruce beer, so make sure you try that. Other than that, just pick a stool at the bar!
