It's a very popular restaurant and tiny little bar restaurant in picturesque Cedarburg so I recommend getting there early or making a reservation because it's small but very busy however they do have an outdoor seating area that's heated. An unbelievably large beer drafts and can assortment to choose with lots of options changes often, the bartenders are very knowledgeable and can recommend many different types. They have a fish fry Friday that seemed very popular, I personally am not into that thing. My friend tried the walleye and wasn't thrilled by that. But when I go to visit annually, I like to stop by here they have some good foods soups appetizers. It's your bar food with a little more variety of flavors.

30 minute wait on a Saturday afternoon for an outside table... worth the wait! And, they text you when your table is ready so you can shop around town while waiting. Sis and I wanted a cocktail and light bite. I had an amazing Lavender Haze, she had a Mule. We had sweet potato fries and roasted red pepper hummus w cucs and crackers- PERFECT! Our server Stephanie was helpful, professional, and friendly. She made thoughtful suggestions. She's a gem!!

Always friendly service here! If you're a wine or mug club member, the prices are hard to beat, especially in this part of Ozaukee county. They change their wine list regularly too, which is great, because you can always find something new. We love stopping here for a big glass of wine to start the weekend on Fridays. Food is good, but a bit pricey. I'd get apps and beverages if you're going to eat. You can take advantage of the pretty outdoor space overlooking the river when it's warm out, as they have both outdoor dining tables and an outdoor cocktail area by the sidewalk (great people watching).

They probably have the best patio seating in all of the mequon/cedarburg area. I love it in the summer! The restaurant itself isn't that big so the one time I went in the winter it just felt a little cramped. But anyway, in addition to the patio, our waitress was so attentive/enthusiastic/positive & the food is great. Our appetizers were a little out of my usual but they were incredible. The tuna tartare was very much so like a deconstructed sushi roll. The squash medley was actually seasoned so well and had a lot of flavor with the crema they added on top. Around the table everyone loved their meals. The berry salad was so fresh and a great portion. The adult grilled cheese was really hearty with the added chicken (extra charge). The burger was cooked well and the sweet potatoes were so crispy and perfectly salty. Lastly, the garden wrap was crunchy, fresh, and tasty. The only change recommended would be a more savory hummus in that wrap-- it almost tasted sweet (maybe like a red pepper hummus?). Overall can't wait to go back, we left feeling very satisfied!

This place is awesome! We were in cedarburg for the day and we decided to stop in. Was greeted by very friendly staff as soon as we walked in. Small place but has outdoor seating as well. I ordered the fiesta shrimp tacos and wow am i glad i did! I had it with the corn tortillas and it was outstanding. Perfect portions as well which I appreciate. The shrimp was very flavorful, the pineapple salsa was so good, the queso cheese along with the crema.. i was enjoying this so much. I ordered the blueberry cucumber mule. Wow it was super refreshing and delicious. My bf ordered the stilt burger and he said it was one of the best burgers he has had in a while. I took a bite and it was so good! We also ordered a side of sweet potato fries which of course were delicious. They have a great cocktail menu and beer menu. My bf enjoyed his beers very much. I highly recommend this place and i for sure know we will be coming back and soon! P.s. please don't take those tacos off the menu haha

Went to Cedarburg for the day and stopped at stilt house for lunch. To our surprise, it was free beer until the end of the 1st quarter for the packer game! What a nice surprise. We got a burger which was absolutely fantastic, soup, salad, and their cheesy fries. Everything was absolutely great! It was a little pricey as sandwhiches did not come with any side so those were additional cost. It was a very fun atmosphere for the packer game and it had a sports bar vibe but a little bit nicer. The wait staff was extremely nice and our waiter was very patient with us as I could not decide what I wanted overall, great food, great experience, and great people. I will be back!
