Great burgers and pizza. Have at least 10 1/2 pound burgers cooked to perfection. Staff is great but like most places in the Northwoods not enough of them

A trip down memory lane, and we were not disappointed. The fried perch was perfect, crispy outside and tender white fish inside. You know it's going to be good, when the cole slaw is tasty, crunchy. Yummy.

Our girls snowmobile group stopped here
while out on snowmobiles, looking forward to playing darts and having drinks. Unfortunately, the experience was ruined by one staff member’s rude and unprofessional attitude.

The biggest issue? They placed the dartboard right in the middle of a staff walkway—then acted annoyed with us for standing there while playing. Instead of acknowledging the poor setup or addressing it politely, we were rudely told to move as if we were doing something wrong. On top of that, we were treated with clear dismissiveness compared to other customers, making us feel completely unwelcome.

Whether this person was the owner or an employee, their attitude made it clear that our business wasn’t appreciated. Luckily, there are plenty of other bars in the area that actually respect their customers—we’ll be going to one of them next time.

We stopped here for lunch last Friday and it was pretty darn good. I got the mushroom and Swiss burger. It exceeded my expectations. The homemade chips that I chose for my side were also tasty. For an appetizer we ordered the fried pickles and my only complaint was they were a bit on the salty side. Once dipped in the sauce they came with though we didn't notice as much. They were still very good. I can't wait to return again for another burger.

Side note: I enjoyed the bathroom. Typically I hate using public bathrooms but this one was roomy and clean and I thought the amenities on the counter were a nice touch.

Northwoods bar and grill. Knotty pine interior. We tried the reuben sammie and whitefish basket. The fries were pretty soft and soggy, not crispy at all. The fish was ok but a little greasy.

Nice local pub for food and brews. Would recommend arriving early for dinner because the place fills up quickly and people come in consistently during the dinner hour. We had the pizza and the fried cheese curds for an appetizer and they were good. We would return to this establishment in the future.

Kurt and Julie work hard to make sure you have a great experience. We have been visiting the northwoods since April of this year, and Rustic Roadhaus has become one of our favorite stops.

Allie is absolutely precious and a great little server. Great pizza and wraps. My favorite wrap is the BBQ burger wrap. My husband loves the Gyro wrap.

Stop in, play some pool, chit chat with the locals and have a laid back and relaxed evening.

I have gotten take out on several occasions from Rustic. It has always been great! Last night fell way short.
The cheese curds were in one big clump. With a few scattered about. This does tell me they are hand breaded which is great, but not separated and cooked correctly.
The pizza in the past has been top notch. Last night it was dry, very sparse on ingredients and no cheese topping.
Maybe a new cook? Busy night? I don’t like being negative however if a problem is not presented, it can’t corrected. 😬

Not sure who the gentleman who scolded me for waiting at the bar as I was told to do, then proceeded to tell me when busy they are too busy to take orders to go....only wanted pizza and a sandwich. He was so rude. If I hadn't ordered I would just leave. After having so many brag on this place I hope the food is better then the people running it. ☹️

It was an extremely busy night. This was the first place in the area after 6 tries that had a table open. We realized once we were there that they were extremely short handed which is the norm post-pandemic. Only the bartender/server and the cook. They compensated by closing off some of the dining area and limiting the menu to only pizzas. Very, very smart. So we ordered pizza. The server was amazing keeping up with tables and bars. The pizza came quickly with nice thin crust and lots of ingredients.
