WhistleStop Restaurant and Lounge

We found the Whistle Stop through a search on Unilocal as we are staying at a nearby cabin this weekend. The microbrews are delivered by the owner’s son who brews them in Milwaukee. When we stopped in, there were none. The owner did go into their walk-​in freezer and found random bottles of beer. I drank a bottle of Pig’s Ass Porter and a Blueberry Wheat from Estes Park, CO. They were yummy.
BUT, I would not have a mixed drink there. The place is dirty. It has definitely seen better times. I would not trust a drink being made with the liquor behind the bar.
We ordered the fish fry. The baked potatoes were good. The fish was straight out of the freezer. The owner said she prides herself on making good soup. Tonight’s soup, Fifteen Bean and Ham, was indeed delicious. The salad bar looked scary. I ate some cottage cheese from it, but it did not seem adequately chilled.
Realize that when you stop here for a meal that it is a hole in the wall. The owner was very kind and kind of a hoot to chat with. If you are going there for the «microbrews» that the first reviewer raved about, they are apparently hit or miss.

Great Pizza with an even better Beer selection. Many interesting self-​brewed choices to pick from as well as the normal macro beers. The Jalapeño Blonde Ale and Caribbean Stout are a must! Don’t be deceived by the outside; nice friendly service waiting for you inside. It’s in the middle of nowhere but well worth the trip!
