Our Founding Vision

Our journey began with a vision—to pay homage to the rich tradition of Wisconsin supper clubs while infusing a fresh, modern twist.

We envisioned a space where friends and families could gather over exquisite meals, where the laughter and camaraderie of classic supper clubs would merge seamlessly with the excitement of modern gastronomy. At Butcher & Barrel, this vision is our reality.

We proudly introduce ourselves as a gastropub, a term that encapsulates our culinary philosophy.

Our menu is a celebration of modern gourmet versions of American comfort food. From succulent chicken and beef entrees to mouthwatering pork and seafood dishes, our kitchen is dedicated to crafting culinary masterpieces that redefine comfort food. The heart of our menu lies in prime steaks, cooked to perfection, ensuring each bite is a symphony of flavors.
