14 Best American Restaurants near New Glarus

“We had a great lunch at Kristi's Restaurant. Mary had a burger, I had a Crab cake on a bun and Michelle had wrap. It took a while to find a restaurant on a November Tuesday. We were glad it took a while to find that Kristi"s was open.“

“This Swiss town was news to us! We were passing near so we picked this on right off for fondue.
And yep, right at noon on a Thursday, we had a fired up pot of cheese- fun right? We may have leftover fondue for a week, but it was entertaining.
Husband had an amazing looking meat and veg dish in a puff pastry. I had a wedge salad. Blue cheese was great of course. We had been up in the Dells for about a week and this was the best knew we had the whole time. Everything was fresh, well prepared, and flavorful.
Really good food and nice folks doing the things.
Apologize for not taking pictures before we dug into it lol.

Vegetarian options: Ovo lacto.
I chose the wedge salad (doesn't even normally have bacon there.)
Of course there is fondue with bread and veggies, and I believe there was a pasta entree. I got the vibe that they would have worked with me on customizations but there were choices on the menu that I liked

Kid-friendliness: There were kids at the table next to us. I don't know exactly what they got but I did hear something about chicken nuggets and friendly kid options.

Wheelchair accessibility: Could roll right up to a table. I can't remember how many, but I believe it was a couple of steps up to get in.“

“We absolutely LOVE Kennedy’s! We discovered this place when we moved to New Glarus in December of 2016. Sheri makes THE MOST DELICIOUS sandwiches and she and Kennedy, her daughter, always give my son special attention. Again, GREAT burgers and sandwiches and the BLT is the BEST; tons of bacon that’s well-cooked!“

“Coldest beer, greatest choice of bourbon, wonderful customer service, delicious food, superb ambiance... what more can I say! Phenomenal place! Thank you, Scott!! We loved it!!!“

“If you’re ever in the New Glarus area I highly recommend making a stop at Fat Cat - I have only been twice, that being said the staff have been incredible friendly both times - the food and drinks are made in house - including a wide variety of fresh baked goodies. Their food menu is great, and their ingredients for the most part are locally sourced. I absolutely fell in love with this cute little joint.
I being someone who can’t consume caffeine was amazed that they offer other drinks such as a fresh made ginger lemonade that is to die for.“

“Great casual place. Staff very friendly providing great service. Very reasonably priced & great local beer, New Glarus beer.“

“I got a strawberry cheesecake mixer with extra strawberries. It was great. There were extra strawberries. Actual bits of strawberry and not just syrup. The chunks of cheesecake were a little toi big for my taste but I'm not complaining or suggesting a change“

“This small town bar and grill is an amazing place to stop for some delicious food. The pulled pork sandwich tasted amazing and the house fries were just the right amount of crispy. I topped off the meal with a glass of sweet honey mead. They also offer multiple choices from the local brewery. Our server was prompt, polite and friendly. I will definitely be returning to try some of their other burger options!!!“

“Everything! Was a great experience and the food was delicious. Waitstaff were exceptional and great attention to details. A ten on all levels.“

“Great food you can tell is both homemade and made with quality fresh ingredients. This is a once a week type of restaurant! Those who make and serve the food are very friendly, helpful, and attentive. Keep supporting small businesses!“

“Great service and great food, cozy, friendly atmosphere!“

“Our family has spent many days and hours at Sugar River Lanes since Rob & Marcia Bloxham took over ownership. They are amazing kind people who share their passion of bowling and building community relationships. Staff are very friendly, clean and fun atmosphere, good food & drinks, updates are looking great. Rob has been the youth & high school coach for 2 of our boys for over a year and can’t say enough about him!! We’ve spent fun times enjoying our date nights for featured bands and entertainment. Wood lanes are fun to bowl. Overall Highly recommend!“

“Had the taco salad and it was very good, chicken was tender and super tasty, I’ll be back to try more menu items!“
