ANNIE’S FOUNTAIN CITY CAFE Comfort food made from scratch, an eclectic decor of vintage items, plus a back room with board games. Make sure to try the Cinnamon Swirl Stuffed French Toast, Red Squirrel Jane, or Lighthouse Latte! GREEN DRAGON Featuring a variety of beer choices unparalleled by its peers in the city. Known for their cheese curds, dragon’s eggs, and excellent selection of unique bourbon and whiskey. JOE’S FOX HUT A quintessential Wisconsin tavern in the Downtown District. Authentic pizza and the only place that has Schlitz beer on tap. KELLEY COUNTRY CREAMERY Need we say more than yum? Who wouldn’t want to try the “best ice cream in the middle of nowhere,” including homemade flavors such as Banana Nut French Toast, Bleu Cheese Pair, Bourbon Cherry Pecan, and Chocolate Flavored Potato Chip? Plus a ton more out-of-the-ordinary flavors along with everyone’s basic favorites. SCHREINER’S RESTAURANT, BAKERY & BERNIE’S PUB About as classic a Wisconsin, must-do restaurant as there is. Do not fail to stop in, especially for the clam chowder and Pie Happy Hour! Featured on the popular television show Wisconsin Foodie . THE SWEET & SALTY PIG THAT’S TOO MUCH BACON! SAID NO ONE EVER! Enjoy bacon in dishes where you may not expect them. How about some Drunken Zoodles? A Brisket Grilled Cheese? Or BBQ Pork Totchos? Specializing in unique comfort foods for brunch or dinner, and a full bar with delicious specialty cocktails and craft beer. THEO’S 24 Handcrafted cocktails, a meticulously assembled wine selection, great beers, and attentive service, and that’s just from the bar! Add a sampling of Asian Pot Stickers, Ahi Tuna with Sea

Scallops, and the finest New York Strips in the state and you have Theo’s 24. Classy but never stuffy. Located in the heart of the Downtown District. URBAN FUEL This cool coffeehouse, off the beaten path, is as cozy as they get, with a rustic/romantic ambience. Voted #1 coffeehouse in Wisconsin. Make sure you try their Mexican Spice Mocha or one of their refreshing real fruit smoothies. WENDT’S ON THE LAKE For over five decades the Wendt family has proudly owned, operated, and served award-winning lake perch at Wendt’s on the Lake. Wendt’s is the go-to Friday Night Fish Fry destination, but if the Friday night crowd isn’t for you, join them any other night because perch is served daily. Also known locally as the place to be on the west side of Lake Winnebago during sturgeon spearing season! YUMMY BONES & BBQ

Yummy Bones BBQ is unlike other barbecue restaurants with a flavor distinction you won’t find elsewhere. Famous smoked ribs, brisket, pork, chicken and wings, and southern sides.
