It's a meadery, with beer and wine too. A little far, but our favorite place: Live music inside Thu-Sat. , Frisbee golf and more outside, open mic on Thursdays., and the best Mead ever!

Broomstacks Kitchen and Tap Room is just a mile north of here. It’s a relaxed, friendly pub, with great burgers and brews. Owned and sourced locally. You can even hike there via the sweater forest! They also have a curling club, and you can reserve a sheet to play, or take a "Learn To Curl" class!

Further than Cedar, small but interesting selection. Some nice food, organics, fruit veggies and a deli, maybe little pricey.

Eat, Drink, and Curl

Besides being a great restaurant, this is the first private curling club in the upper midwest. In the winter they have regular league play, and in the summer they often have "Learn To Curl" classes. Talk to John (host), or David when you are there, or go on line a search for EAT, DRINK, and CURL
