“I never miss a chance to get a Doyle’s Chicago dog. Every time I’m in the Lake Mills area I stop in even if to just get one for later. I’ve been there many times and always a great experience. I was there during the Christmas season last year and dined in. As I was enjoying my delicious meal Mr Doyle came and handed me a Doyle’s dog ornament. Was a very nice gesture and will be added to my tree each year. Today my wife and 2 kids stopped down for the town and county days but got there pretty late. I checked to see if Doyle’s was open downtown, I was too late. I thought on our way out about 3:30 that I’d swing by the stand and see if they were still open. They were not, however as I slowly turned the corner Mr Doyle spotted me looking at the stand and could tell I was there to get food. He waived me over and said he’d be happy to get me and my family a meal. He was just about packed up and ready to leave so we said no we don’t want to impose but he insisted it was no problem. He took our order and promptly returned with 4 hot dogs and even put in extra popsicles. We asked how much and he said don’t worry it’s on him. We handed him the little cash we had left and he said no thank you but we insisted. He then said no problem I’ll put it in our donation bin. Not only did he re open for us but he also didn’t want our money. The generosity and kindness of this local business owner is extraordinary. If you have a chance to stop by Doyle’s don’t miss it. It’ll always be a wonderful experience and fantastic food. Thank you Mr Doyle“

“I would just like to give a huge shout out to Culvers in Lake Mills WI! My daughter, granddaughter and some of their friends, had a house fire. This was a total loss. Culvers reached out and offered some food coupons for the kids! It feels so good to see so much community support and love. You guys are a blessing. May God continue to watch over you and bless you in so many ways. This momma, grandma... is so very grateful. XOXO“

“Did you know they only serve food till 8pm? Asked to order a burger at 8:03pm was told no. On a Thursday wow. website states 9pm on Thursdays. Best part go there for my sister's bday. No bday tickets no glass . Bartender said nothing. Till I asked then we were told they are all out. They did take $1 off our drinks. No picture taken for there FB page. They weren't even that busy. Oh well I guess lesson learned. Happy Birthday Sis anyways.“

“Quintessential Wisconsin supper club! Cool location right near the local airport makes for a fun fly in destination. Food and service was excellent! Highly recommend the fish of the day special as well as the spinach salad. The lobster mashed potatoes were good but I don’t think it was worth the up charge. The creme brûlée was fantastic as well. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Great service and good food.“

“I've tried every gyro in town, and this was my favorite. The broasted chicken was everything you'd hope it would be. The roasted potatoes were both unique and simply just right. We will definitely order again.“

Food is always great. Whenever we have friends visiting from out of town, this is where we bring them for classic Wisconsin cuisine.“

“Not very family friendly with ppl smoking on the deck and there’s typically men at the bar swearing loudly… even during “grill” hours not “bar” hours. However, on the positive side, the view of the creek is beautiful and the food is consistently good!! Love the Reuben and sweet potato fries.“

“A heartfelt thank you to Jefferson Cafe for graciously hosting our board members and community partners for brunch this morning. It was a productive gathering where we shared updates about our nonprofits, discussed future plans, and explored potential partnerships. The customer service was exceptional, the food was served promptly and was delicious, and the pricing was competitive. We had a wonderful time and eagerly anticipate returning next quarter!“
