Summer in Wisconsin has been a beauty, but we’ve hit the part of the summer when the reality of the next season begins to set in. While we enjoy the sunshine, memories of last winter are beginning to creep in and we realize that summer can only last so long. So, let’s make the most of what we have left! Go swimming, camping and hiking and when you’ve worked up an appetite hit these restaurants for some of the best outdoor dining in Wisconsin.


The Buckhorn has been in operation for more than 85 years. That means they've got tons of experience serving their beloved fish fry, prime rib, and duck specials. But what really makes this place a Wisconsin favorite are the lobster boils held throughout the warmer months out on their beautiful lawn. Visit them at: 11802 N Charley Bluff Rd., Milton / 608-868-2653
