Our Boulder Junction Favorites

Within walking distance:
   Aqualand Ale House
   Rated one of the 15 restaurants that serve
​   the BEST Beer in Wisconsin.  We agree 100%.  

   Mad Dog Jakes
  Who doesn't love ice cream on a sunny summer   day.  Mad Dog Jakes is a great little walk to take when it's time for a break from swimming. 
   
   Boulder Beer Bar
  Great, friendly service, generously topped personal pizzas, and honestly the BEST fried cheese curds I've ever had in my life.  I'm not kidding, stop in and order your own basket.  You're not going to want to share.  Don't miss the Friday Fish Fry. 

Best for Breakfast:
  Read this blog post for more details
   The Bakery 
  Here for the holiday's?  REALLY great pies.  Actually, it's pie - you don't need to wait for the holidays, you're on vacation, right?
Also, don't forget to pick up a couple loaves of english muffin bread. 


   The Granary 
 Fast, friendly service. Great Hash.


For the friendly local company:
   McGann's Wine Bar
​
  Need to get your Irish Pub fix?  Are you a long-suffering Chicago sports fan?  Just want a friendly conversation with great company? Denny and Ellen are here to provide!  McGann's has come to be known as the Cheers of the Northwoods. 
  
 Headwaters 
And Apparently one of the best  Friday Fish Fry meals in Wisconsin.  Order a Wisconsin old fashioned for a local treat. We love it!
 
For a special occasion
   Guide's Inn
   Smokey's 

In Minocqua
   The Boathouse
   Minocqua Brewing Co. 
Main Street Boulder Junction

First of all, you can't go wrong just parking at one end of main street and walking up and down the street going into each shop along the way to browse.  You will find friendly local merchants in every one, and unique offerings in all.  That said, these are my favorites from which I inevitably bring home a few bags, souvenirs or gifts for the folks back home:

   Boulder Trading Company
   Moondeer
   Northern Highland Sports

For the necessities
   Knitt's Hardware
​   Coontail Market

For Fresh and Local food 10mins away
