“Had the full rack of ribs on Sat. night, they were excellent fall off the bone done, tasty sauce that was just the right amount, not to messy not to dry. Slaw was tasty, potato wedges were tasty too. Wife had the 4 piece chicken w/baked potato and was very happy. We both brought some home for another meal.

“Welcome to Fox Lake, if you wander this way,
and wonder where lunch might be hiding today.
The answer is simple, the answer is here,
an old burger shack serving goodness for years.

Pull into the lot and pick out your spot,
come hungry, come happy, come see what they’ve got.
No reason to rush and no reason to chase,
there’s plenty of room, so ease into place.
Old walls hold stories, though walls seldom talk,
and one certain corner remembers a knock.

Now onto the platter, the sizzle, the smell,
where grills have a story and burgers to tell.
Burgers get flipped while the chicken gets dipped,
fish gets sandwiched and Sloppy Joes drip.

Grab fistfuls of fries, golden goodness just right,
crispy and salty, a dishful delight.
Take one, take two, take a handful or four,
then wonder who emptied the basket once more.

Let the root beer flow and the frosty floats float,
with a creamy white cloud in a bubbly brown moat.
Sip it and slurp it, get foam on your nose,
that’s simply the way a good root-beer float goes.

Then ice cream arrives, that cold creamy dream,
a scoop and a swirl of the sweetest soft scene.
Should one wandering fry take a dive in your dish,
let salty meet sweet and enjoy if you wish.

There’s something quite fine in an old drive-in shack,
where folks pull on in and keep coming on back.
No glitter, no glamour, no fanciful plot,
just good old Wisconsin served hot in the lot.

So wander through Fox Lake and follow your nose,
where the root beer keeps bubbling and grill smoke still blows.
Park your dairy-air, grab a burger piping hot,
sip something cold and enjoy this old spot.

And remember, dear traveler, when picking your place:

No need for a chase,
just ease into space.
Stop in the lot,
not quite at the shop,
then grab what they’ve got
and enjoy every taste.

Peace. Piece. Peas. Burgers. Fries. And root beer floats, please.

“We eat at Eggys often. The food is fantastic and affordable. Each time we go I try something different on the menu. The last time we were there I ordered the Ribeye and I am very fussy when it comes to steak. It was absolutely fantastic, cooked just how I asked and the flavor was wonderful. It just melted in my mouth. Thank you Eggys for coming to Fox Lake!“

“Great service and amazing food with large portions and reasonable prices. Our orders came quickly, and our server was friendly and professional. Would highly recommend to others, and we will be going there again.“

“Pasta Wednesday is very good. I highly recommend it. 5 stars“

Didn’t make any of us feel rushed!! She handled it all with grace! What an asset…a wonderful employee!! Our food was delicious too!! Thanks, Katrina!! You’re a hard worker!! 🩵“

“Dining here was outstanding in every way! Great service, great food, great view, beautiful room, one couldn't ask for anything more. This restaurant is by far the best fine dining in Green Lake, Wisconsin. It puts the other restaurants to shame. “

“The Gooseblind is a great place to go for FRESH, homemade food to order! Yeah the wait can sometimes be a bummer… but that’s a cost I’m willing to take when I know my food is being made fresh to order!! Nothing here is “premade” & a lot of love & energy goes into the food. The burgers are delicious, apps are always great, pizzas are PHENOMENAL (fully made fresh- even homemade dough!!) & the sandwiches are always amazing! Come to the Goose for some amazing food! Obviously don’t be a douche & demand that your party of over 10 people be sat immediately when it’s super busy. That’s basic restaurant courtesy that a lot of people have seemed to have forgotten….“

“The owners are awesome and the food is great!“

“Awesome food and staff!!!“

“Great food. At a great price.“

“I have lived in the Green Lake area for over 60 years but have never eaten at Adam's Rib. So on a nice Sunday/Aug. night we decided it was time. They do not serve food on Sunday till after 4:30 but that was ok as we went grocery shopping first. We arrived around 4:30 and were seated right away. Our waitress was Sue and she was very helpful guiding us through the daily specials and regular menu items. She is very friendly and made our first visit even more fun and relaxing. Our drinks arrived and we looked over the large menu. I had the rack of ribs and my wife had shrimp. Both meals come with soup or salad, rolls, choice of potato. I had salad, very good and wife had soup very tasty. Dinner rolls were excellent !!!!!!! In no time our food arrived. My full rack of ribs was done perfectly and my wife's shrimp were large and very meaty with not a lot of breading. The most dangerous place in the world is between my wife and her shrimp and she was very satisfied with her shrimp and her baked potato. My twice baked potato was excellent. I could only finish half the ribs and will look forward to enjoying them next week. Sue returned several times to check on us and refresh our drinks. We were more than satisfied with the prices of the drinks, food, service, atmosphere and and quality and quantity of our meals. We will be returning and bring some friends along to enjoy our new find of Adams Rib in Green Lake.“
