Editor's Note: Rookery Pub is now permanently closed.
Up North Wisconsin is rarely synonymous with fine dining, but the Rookery Pub in Cable serves up farm-to-table goodness smack dab in the middle of the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest. You'll love the charming atmosphere and scrumptious food. Pay a visit to this forest restaurant in Wisconsin and experience the magic.
A part of the Cable Nature Lodge, this restaurant continues the owner's vision for green living. In doing so, The Rookery provides some of the best, freshest, and most unique food in the northern part of the state.
The cozy restaurant combines upscale dining with the relaxed vibe of being Up North.
In the warmer months, the patio is as inviting as any you've ever seen.
And the outdoor stage with live music tempts you to linger over your delicious meal in this spectacular setting.
An alternative to the normal and ubiquitous Wisconsin fish fry, Rookery offers an "unfry." Forget frozen pieces of mushy fish - this menu item changes each week, but is always freshly prepared fish from sustainable fisheries around the world.
Sure, you'll find the standard steak on the menu - but you'll also find bison, seasonal ingredients, local produce and some of the only vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options in the area.
The food here is elevated, the location is gorgeous and the patio is unparalleled.
If you're anywhere near Cable, you have to make plans to visit the Rookery. It's a meal you won't soon forget.
The Rookery Pub Fine Dining is located at Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, 20100 Co Hwy M, Cable, WI 54821. To learn more, visit their website here.
