Holly’s Drive In

You cannot go wrong with supporting local nor eating ice cream! While the line can get long (I…read moresuspect most visitors in the summer are on summer time anyway or visiting a cabin) so I recommend embracing it all in and enjoy the beautiful weather that we don't get 24/7. There is lots of street parking and an oversized funky chair on the exterior that is unique to snap a photo on. Inside, you will feel transported back into your 70's and 80's ice cream parlor with typical ice cream options, shakes, sundaes, malts, etc. and even food options as well. There is also a small market where you can purchase candy, fudge, root beer, licorice, syrup, local honey and even beef sticks. My shake was delicious and I can't wait to visit again this summer. Thank you!!

I always visit the Milk Pail when I'm visiting or passing through Rice Lake. The place itself is as…read morecute as a button with its true red barn appearance and old time diner feel inside. The staff is always pleasant and easy to communicate with. Now let me tell you about the food -- they have some of the best ice cream in Wisconsin. More than that, they have amazing coffee and sandwiches as well. I can't say enough good things about the Milk Pail. I pray they always stay in business.

Also received some sweet chili dipping sauce for extra flavor. The second time I ate here was Friday night. I had the fish special served with a baked potato and coleslaw.

Very nice restaurant with great views of the lake from inside or (if you choose) outside seating. I will definitely be back next time I'm ever in the north woods on vacation again!
