Fun place out in the country side. The bartenders are great and the food especially the hamburgers and fish fry are both first rate. Don't hesitate, just go.

We stopped in at The Shop last night for the Friday fish fry, excited to try the walleye. We also ordered the calamari, but unfortunately, it tasted old and stale. We decided to just push through and hoped the rest of the meal would be better.
I ordered a Tequila Sunrise, and to my surprise, the bartender didn’t know what that was. When I received my second drink, it wasn’t made with the same tequila, and I started feeling bloated not long after.
My walleye sandwich lacked any real flavor—the cheese was the only thing I could taste. My husband’s walleye still had the skin on, which might have been intentional (possibly pan-fried?), but it wasn’t mentioned on the menu and caught us off guard.
Later that evening, I felt very bloated and uncomfortable. Unfortunately, my husband had a worse reaction—it hit him within 30 minutes of getting home, and he ended up sick for most of the night.
I gave the atmosphere a 2 because it was uncomfortably cold inside, and the general vibe just didn’t feel welcoming. It seemed like if you’re not a regular or over 60, you may not feel like you belong. Sadly, the experience didn’t live up to the glowing reviews we read, and it left us wondering if some of those might be a bit too generous—or perhaps written by staff.

Fantastic fish fry. The best I’ve ever had and I’m an old crusty grandpa. Generous portions, great potato and slaw, super price. Staff are friendly and prompt. Only down side is place is small with only about 5 tables that seat 4 comfortably. Overall rating SUPERB !

Everything was excellent! The wait staff was so helpful and nice. The fish was exceptional. Get the potato pancakes if you like something a little different. The slaw was perfect. Had 2 delicious old fashioneds. Portions generous and priced fairly.

Cool stop for a place for refreshments and rest. Relaxing bar setting and the area is nice. Great outdoor seats and service is fast. Biker friendly. Good burgers, calamari is crispy, cheese curds were gooey, steak sandwich was cheesy.

5 of us for dinner, Friday , time 5:15. All ordered fish special haddock with shrimp, baked potatoes were hard and cold to the point the butter would not even melt.
Told them so they microwaved, not a fan of a microwaved potatoe, fish was just “OK” not the flaky white fish we’re used to getting at a Wisconsin Friday night fish fry.
We asked for a drink and were told we’d have to go to the bar for that ! What? Our food is on table and now we have to go up to bar for a drink???
Ordered deep fried mushrooms, they were basically SLICED and fried not even a WHOLE mushroom and not even a half but sliced breaded mushrooms?? Huh? Don’t be fooled by the pictures they’re not as they are one ordered in the restaurant. The place before These people bought this bar had delicious deep-fried mushrooms Portabella‘s quartered, huge delicious. What a huge disappointment!
bad food and horrible service! Won’t be back

No chance to eat or drink. The place was packed with bikers. I entered with crutches due to a recent injury. Nobody at the bar offered to give up their seat. I left, but will try again when the parking lot isn’t packed. The place is small and appeared clean. The bartender seemed friendly.

My breakfast companion had a breakfast sandwich 😋 I had the concoction over hashbrowns covered in sausage gravy and topped with egg and cheese packed with flavor and added to my already Wisconsin figure!!! Thanks for the very satisfying meal before I resume a no carb lifestyle!!

This a small place on a country road a few miles outside of Sauk City. The service was great and very friendly. They don't have a website so we weren't sure what the menu would be. It turns out that it changes fairly regularly, we happened to go on a Friday so there were a handful of fish fry options - I had the perch and it was excellent!
