I first must say that I have dined here at least 6 times in the past 30 or more years, and I live more than 3 hours away. I love Mineral Point and I love the Red Roster Cafe. The building used to be a bank back in the 1800s, I believe it is still the original ornate tin ceiling. This time my wife and I were doing the Fall Art Tour in the area. We arrived at the Red Rooster about 11:45 AM on Saturday, October 21, 2023. Sat at the counter, tables all filled. Of course the main idea...
We figured there should be a restaurant in a historic mining region serving Cornish pasties and the Red Rooster was it. We ordered the traditional individual pies and weren’t disappointed. A bonus: an excellent wilted lettuce salad with a hot bacon dressing. Took me back to my childhood.
In the heart of Mineral Point - this is the heart of Mineral Point right here. There’s a old fashioned counter where you can sit and chat with visitors and locals alike. So much fun and we love the placemats!
