Preuss's Pub — Restaurant in Town of Arbor Vitae

First visit to Preuss's PUb - on a recommendation from D at Leisure City. We enjoyed the our first visit to this iconic, kitschy Northwoods original bar. It's small and intimate - the bar seats 10-12 at the most and the front dining area seats about the same. Looks like there is a nice outdoor serving area that overlooks Little Musky Lake - we plan to visit next season. Check out the decorative, wood inlay bar - very cool. Our bartender served up a couple of Wisconsin classics - Brandy Old Fashioneds to start our evening. Tasty, but not the best...We ordered from the bar as our waitress arrived and got herself settled, she was friendly and accommodating - she made our visit comfortable. "She" tried the pan fried walleye, and I tried the "Friday Fish Fry" - both served with house made baked beans and creamy cole slaw, lemon wedges and rye bread - the food was tasty indeed, some might think a little pricey for the atmosphere but we really enjoyed the intimacy of this classic Northwood's Pub/Bar/ Restaurant. Since it's so convenient to Hwy 51, Hwy 70E (right across from the Plantation and Kwik Trip) , Minocqua, Arbor Vitae, Woodruff - I think this place often gets overlooked as you speed by towards Manitowish Waters and Boulder Junction - I know that's what happened to us. We'll definitely be back to give the outdoor area visit - instead of zooming by on Hwy 51, stop in and visit Preuss's for a visit - I think you'll enjoy...

Best Darn Burgers Ever!!! 🤤🍔 ...I will be dreaming about them for till I go there again, lol! Thank you for the awesome food & friendly service! This place is a MUST if ever in town! You WILL NOT be sorry!!!

...thank you to the owners as well... ...this was an old hangout of my Grandfather's. About a year or 2 ago while in there, I seen a cribbage board my Grandfather made for the previous owner (Ron & Barb) when it was known as The Little Muskie bar. She freely gave it to me and told me it belonged with me. Cried on the spot.... Cannot thank you enough! By chance, if anyone whom owns one reads this, please contact me if willing to sell as our family has been seeking them out for years.

We have been there about 5 times and have been impressed every time until this last time. We live in Appleton and have a place in Boulder Junction and were on our way up Friday night and stopped in for a burger. Come to find out nothing but fish on Fridays. Well we almost left but hey we’re in Wisconsin and it’s Friday so we stayed and am I glad we did I had the pan fried walleye and Tom had the cod and we both were more than impressed Mac n cheese and potato pancakes were over the top great. Service was excellent and beer was cold. Thanks for the great meal and we will...
