The historic buildings in the area are made from locally quarried dolomitic limestone. The bridges and bridge piers here are made from the same limestone.
The large double-level deck overlooks the Wapsipinicon River. When the weather is nice, it’s a great place to kick back and relax with one of the General Store Pub’s famous Bloody Marys.

The food here is wonderful and truly unique. The tacklebox sampler is served in an actual tacklebox. Saturday night is traditionally Prime Rib night, here. You can get ribs on the first Friday of the month.
