We had guests from the DC area and took them to our favorite restaurant, Bistro 63. They were totally impressed with the menu, the food and the great service. They said it was an incredible restaurant and were totally impressed. We've been eating at the Bistro since we moved to the area two years ago and it's always wonderful food and service. The lobster mac and cheese is fabulous and the steaks are always wonderful. We love the fresh items on the menu and have never been disappointed with this wonderful bistro in the northwoods. If I could give them 10 stars, I would!

When you are in Spooner, WI make the stop at River Street Restaurant. You will not be disappointed. We enjoyed brunch with our four year old grand daughter. Great family restaurant. Pancakes, French toast, omlets, hash browns; all excellent and very generous portions. Service was terrific. Prices were very reasonable. Parking was limited. Great place!

We were traveling on the highway heading north today and it was time for lunch. I consulted Trip Advisor and found this charming coffee shop. What a find!!
Excellent panini, our 11-year-old grandson declared, "Great food!" And he is picky, so that is a compliment, indeed! The coffee was wonderful, too. We have to have decaf, and so many times decaf isn't flavorful, but this was delicious!
We were there a bit late for lunch and the soup was sold out. I am sure it was tasty, but we didn't get a chance to try it.
Fast, friendly service, and such a charming environment! A very small place, limited menu (just panini and soup and a few small desserts.). But it is a gem.
I hope maybe someday we will return.

Was pleasantly surprised at the selection of this place. They have daily specials---Monday was burger night. The menu includes a few Mexican selections along with burgers and salads. Service was OK though refills on beverages were not offered and none of the specials or salad bar were explained. I didn't even notice the salad bar until the way out. The location is very close to walking trails and is right on the main street of town.

A culinary delight for the sweet tooth! This shop has something for everyone, whether you are looking for a handful of cookies, already bagged, cream puffs to entice you, cakes, pies, cookies or breads, you'll go crazy in this place. Don't go just to look, because it ain't gonna happen! Your mouth will water and your hand will reach for your wallet. "Stop by and buy" will be your motto. I highly recommend it with a grade of A+!

Last weekend we took a little trip to Bayfield Wisconsin and had the opportunity to eat at similar restaurants in Spooner, Ashland and Bayfield Wisconsin. Peggy's Place was the best of all. The service was fantastic; my daughter wanted a single over easy egg, a pancake and some toast. No problem even though that option clearly wasn't on the menu, and they didn't gouge me on the price. The food is cheap! My friend ordered a steak and it was prepared excellently. The pancake was fluffy and wonderful. And, my eggs, bacon and hashbrowns were all like you'd expect.
A great meal and a great dining experience.

We stopped at Nick’s while driving across Wisconsin. We were really glad we did. They serve breakfast all day, and have a full lunch and dinner menu. The desserts looked fantastic, but we were really full after our meals. The Rueben sandwich was full of corned beef and excellent sauerkraut. My husband had the omelette special, which he really liked. We were satisfied and the prices were great.

Friday nights at Potter's Shed outside of Shell Lake, Wi is music night. Admission is $5 for a wonderful evening with fun people and a great band. The venue has a funky vibe with an art studio/store where one can purchase pottery, jewelry and many other things. There is also a cafe serving yummy little pizzas, drinks and delicious desserts along with beer and wine for the adults. We had a fun time enjoying the music while the kids did a scavenger hunt looking for fairies. Go check it out!

This is the best pizza around the Spooner area. This restaurant is big enough for large groups or birthday parties. A small salad bar and limited wine and beer list. Many favorite pizzas or build your own off the menu. Call ahead for pickup or home delivery.
