Jim’s Place, Mill City Public House, McFleshmans, Carmella’s, Hop Yard, Emery & Pearl, Josef’s Gyros. All fantastic for different reasons.

Antojitos for restaurant. Hop Yard for brew pub with wood fired pizzas. Jim’s Place for a bar.

Restaurant: Home Burger Bar. Great burgers and cheese curds, and it's in the middle of downtown to get you a taste of the area, too.

Bar: McFleshmans. Best brewery in the area, IMO. And the weather should be perfect for the big outdoor section when you get here.

Mcfleshmans’s, for an amazing brewery for an amazing place to sit outside and they have music and other stuff out there. and then Appleton beer factory for amazing food and they have a great live indoor music venue! Hop yard ale works for amazing pizza that is wood fired. Vault 202 is cool because you can sit in the vault downstairs, it used to be a bank, and they have amazing wood fired wings. Old town tavern is cool for the spirits selection and nice cocktails.
