A few weeks ago we had the chance to check out the very busy Lakeview Bar and Restaurant on the gorgeous Lake Gremore, just north of Prairie Du Chien. I think Toby Keith had places like the Lakeview in mind with his song, ” I love this bar.” Immediately when I walked into the Lakeview, I thought to my bar-lovin’ self, I love this bar. It was spacious but filled with a nice chatty crowd with plenty of room for the dining crowd.
This is a place that simultaneously and comfortably pleases the bar-goers and families out for a meal. With family and friends in tow we opted for the dining area and enjoyed two huge pizzas. Check out their menu here. Lakeview has an excellent nightly specials list. The Lakeview is a hopping spot. The parking lot was packed but we found a table right away and did not wait long at all for our mega pizzas.
