I would say Stilt House was pretty good! It's a smaller space, so when we went in with a group of 5 on a week day we were told we could be seated right away in their heated tent. We thought that would be fine and there was one other party seated in the large tent. As we ate, 3-4 other parties stayed for a couple of minutes and left because it was too cold. There were only two heaters in a pretty sizable tent and really only one worked and it was pointed at our feet. I would definitely recommend looking into a few of those standing space heaters if possible- I think it would definitely make it easier to seat more parties in there! The food was good but didn't blow me away. We had a cheese board which was pretty good and the nuts and white cheddar were amazing! The bbq chicken flatbread was pretty good as well and I had a bite of the Mac n cheese with chicken that was not bad either, though it does cost $5.99 to add chicken which is on the higher end. I'd definitely be open to trying again in warmer weather or seated inside! read more

We were visiting Cedarburg for the first time and one of the first places we saw was the Stilt house, its right downtown kind of next to the bridge. When we were hungry later, I remembered some online recommendations. It was a beautiful fall day so we sat in the huge lovely back patio. What a beautiful spot for lunch or anything really. We started strong with some awesome stuffed portabella mushroom caps, cheesey, tangy from the balsamic and crunchy panko parm topping, they were just great. We had a hard time deciding so we split a Harvest Apple salad and the amazing sounding Maple Bacon Chicken sandwich. The salad was good, but small, no way large enough for an entree, it was hardly enough to split. But it was good, tangy cherry dressing over kale and apples with candied pecans and goat cheese. The sandwich was outstanding, a nice large chicken breast, well cooked and juicy. With a maple sauce and crispy bacon...nothing not to like there. I didn't notice that it's all ala carte so it was just a sandwich with no sides or anything. For lunch it was fine as we were planning on dinner later. All in all the food was very good, the service was excellent and we will be back next time we visit read more

Good ambiance, friendly service, and nice patio, but not great value. $17 sandwich in my picture and no sides come with it. Sandwich was decent. read more

Apple Pie Old Fashioned. What a tasty concoction! What I originally thought was a floating cookie, was an apple slice with cinnamon/sugar - YUMMMM. As always, the food is A-1. Tried both Street Tacos (shared) - preferred the Shrimp over the Carne Asado - has more flavor. See you again soon! read more

EASY 5***** restaurant. Came here with my girlfriend for Harvest Fest bc we wanted a place to sit inside for being a warm day. This place did not disappoint whatsoever. Start off with the drink menu. Wow!! Very superb. Heck they had a beer from a small town brewery in CT where I moved from. I think they may actually have too much beer. Only the 2nd place I have ever gotten the Banana Bread beer, which is only brand of its kind. Appetizer got the Mango Jalapeño Poppers. They were amazing. So they were normal jalapeño poppers with jalapeño peppers but rather massive fried Jalapeño Dip with an amazing mango sauce. They were delicious. I actually got the Chipotle Avocado Salad that was like a Southwest Salad (tortilla strips, beans, & corn). One of the best salads I have ever eaten in my life. My girlfriend got the Wild Mushroom Flatbread & even that was amazing. I had one piece & it was great. Maybe not for someone super hungry but it was delicious. The interior is very cool as well. read more

Absolutely excellent food, ambience and service! We were thoroughly surprised how efficient the staff was even when they were super busy this Saturday. We ordered two cocktails- Both very delicious and loved the salt and butterfly pea syrup. The food came in shortly after the drinks and it was very good bar food. The flat bread is my favorite. Highly recommend getting patio seating at Stilt House! read more

Stilt House is kind of epic! While exploring Cedarburg, WI, we ducked into Stilt House for a quick drink and bite to eat to hold us over until dinner. The inside was PACKED, so we ended up out back inside a large heated tent, which was a pretty sweet setup! I will say, we stayed bundled up with our jackets on. The tent was so big, that I'm sure it takes a lot of heat to really warm it up, not to mention we were in Wisconsin in the winter, so I get it. I started with some sort of cranberry cider (I believe it was a seasonal special!) and it was freaking spectacular. They have an awesome drink menu to choose from with a variety of beers, cocktails, and wine, so there was really something for everyone. We split a few appetizers including the roasted cauliflower, french fries (they were sold out of the truffle fries or we would have tried those!), and the buffalo chicken sliders. Wow -- the food really blew me away! The cauliflower had some curry spices which added to its incredible flavor. Fries were solid pub-style french fries, but the buffalo chicken sliders were on another level. Shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, blue cheese, and ranch served on mini pretzel buns. I'll take 10. Loved all of it, and honestly wish we stayed for dinner, it was that good! If I'm ever back in Cedarburg, I'll definitely pay Stilt House another visit! read more

Stilt House - Happy place beer Niiiiiiiice - Gastropubs Near Me - Cedarburg, Wisconsin

First off they get a 5 for ambiance. Sit out back under one of the trees and you'll think your eating in a forest. Really stoped in for a beer and some appetizers. The beer list is extensive with both local and imports. Ordered the bruschetta and the giant pretzel. The bruschetta was excellent and the pretzel and dipping sauces were just ok. The mustard was good but nothing special about it and the beer cheese lacked flavor. Still hungry so ordered the sliders and some fry's. The sliders with grilled onions were very flavorful and the fry's which were seasoned had a distinctive flavor as well. The service from our server and the whole staff was excellent. Overall a good experience and we will return. read more

We came on a Saturday afternoon. Yes they were busy. We were told the wait was 25-30 min, we were ok with that until we noticed other couples walking up and getting seated right away. We ordered drinks and appetizers along with a burger and fries. Drinks and appetizers were good but not enough chips for the dip, a lot of dip got wasted. The burger was ok, bun was too big and too much for the burger, also seemed stale. The service was definitely sub par as no plates for the appetizer, didn't check on how we were doing and took forever to bring us the check. Needless to say we were overall disappointed as this WAS one of our favorite places to eat. read more

A really amazing spot with excellent food and service! My wife and I really loved the atmosphere and could not have been more impressed. When you go, you MUST request Blake!!! She was an AMAZING server and we will request her when we go back! A+! read more

What a lovely afternoon retreat. Great food, service and the shaded patio was perfect

We arrived to a new menu and items. The manager was out taking pics of the food to post to their social media I believe. We had two waiters (one in training) and they were so friendly, engaged. Solid service. The outside seating is so peaceful and perfect. We loved it. Two things: When someone orders an old fashion don't just ask sour or sweet, start asking if they want it classic as well. Most places don't know a classic old fashion, especially the servers. Focus a bit more on ratio of things. We got Jamaican jerk chicken bowl which needs more chicken and pineapple to go along with the sauce and rice. By all means though it's an amazing fresh dish. We will be back. Loved it. read more

Fun and unique place. Great food and good beer. Our server was friendly and our overall experience was a good one.

I have attended meals at this establishment twice in my lifetime. The recent experience I had seemed to be rather disappointing. To begin, there was an inadequate diversity of appetizer options. I would like to say that in my 97 years on this planet, I have never heard of such grotesque provisions such as "Tuna Tar Tar". I was rather discouraged by the unavailability of common appetizers. Following the distribution of the main course, I was displeased and let down by the quality of the burger. It was mediocre at best. However, the fries were quite tasteful. The drink menu was complex, therefore I just ordered a lemonade. The service was decent, however the booths toward the back of the eatery were everything but dispersed. I was honestly disappointed by the decrease in quality of this once fine establishment. The menu has changed significantly in the past few years, as I remember a Mac and cheese dish that was unlike no other. I hope that maybe this establishment will take these thoughts in to consideration and do a better job. read more

Of the three times I've come here, the menu has somehow gotten worse every time. To start they made the decision to remove both cheese curds and Mac and cheese from the menu. This is Wisconsin! Know your audience. I ended up ordering an "adult grilled cheese" which in reality was an egg sandwich with no egg. The food here is pretentious, and for how long the drink list is, there's not a single bit of bar food. Disappointing. read more

Great food- everything I have tried is top notch, beautiful and large patio for eating outside , and I've always had good/ great service.

A kid-friendly place that's great for a meal, burgers and brew! This is a regular for us in Cedarburg. Highly recommended!

Anything we have had here has been excellent. The grilled romaine salad is great, try it. Chicken wrap was so good. Brandy Old fashioned is the best I have had anywhere. I prefer sour, sweet is VERY sweet, unless you like a sweet drink. My husband had the shrimp tacos and they were fabulous. read more

Amazing place to dine when in Cedarburg on a Friday night. A lot of places close around 7 or so but not Stilt house. We were able to put our name down and walk on Main Street while we waited for our table to open. The stilt house has a great patio that I believe is dog friendly (call to be sure). We sat inside at the bar and enjoyed the newly added spicy marg from the bar. The tuna tartare was soooo good I wished we order Two of them... but you know, balance. We then shared the chipotle avocado lime salad which was soooooo good and easy to share between two people. We also shared the Jamaican rice bowl and it was the cherry on top to an amazing meal! Good vibes. Not too loud so you can converse with your fellow patrons. read more

Very good food, drinks, service and enjoyed dining outside by the creek. We will return soon.

Came here with the family for a Tuesday night birthday dinner. We had a 5:30pm reservation, which was good as it was packed. We have been here before, so we knew we were in for a good meal and experience. For apps we shared the Brussels salad and the soft pretzel sticks with cheese. The pretzels were soft and the cheese sauce was perfectly spicy. The salad was a perfect lighter way to start our meal. For a main course my wife and I had the Stilt Burger. I usually order this as it is such a tasty burger, but my wife tried it for the first time. Result? Loved it! My 12 year old had the max n cheese and my 16 year old a plain burger (literally plain). They both ate it all and loved it. Girls had soda and we had some vino. Great food, great atmosphere, great service, great night! Go now! read more

Great food, service, and location! My girl friends and I were doing a ladies weekend and grabbed lunch at Stilt house. We enjoyed the drink selection and our food was excellent.

Love it. Great beers, great food, great vibe. My favorite place in Cedarburg. Every time I visit I go here.

Great place to eat outdoors Get the sliders !!! best deal! Most of the bowls and salads are SPiCY anything Jamaican or Asian or bowls had red pepper flakes in it. Spicy to get u to buy more drinks. Wait staff will tell you different but if too spicy DO send it back - if it happens enough they will stop doing that Guess the owners paid attention to John tapper from Bar Rescue series about spicing up the food.so people will order more drinks !!! Summertime is great outside but too hot at a table without an umbrella. Wait staff cordial read more

Old fashioned restaurant that has seating inside and outside. Their bar has a variety of wines and and thirty beers on tap. The walls have some historical photos and their is a very cool ornate ceiling. They have a good menu that offered dishes such as appetizers, salads, flatbreads, grass fed beef burgers, wraps, tacos, big plates, soup of the day, sides (an extra add on), and dessert. I liked the tv on the wall that showed pictures of each dish, which was very helpful. Appetizer: Spinach Dip Wontons. The wontons were crispy on the outside and spinach and artichoke dip made the inside very gooey. Diced tomatoes and fresh basil were placed on top and there was a cup of balsamic dressing that you can drizzle on top of the wontons. These were so good! Dish: Grilled Shrimp Flatbread. Good size flatbread that had feta cheese, diced tomatoes, red onion, and loaded with grilled shrimp, which was awesome. It tasted all right (healthy) and had fresh basil on top. The feta was not salty or flavorful. But, the dish needed something extra to tie the dish together like a drizzle of balsamic dressing or some garlic brushed on the flatbread. I omitted the red onions, so maybe the onions gave the dish extra flavor? Dessert: Flourless Chocolate Cake with raspberry drizzle and whipped cream. The cake tasted rich, and chocolate that just melted in my mouth. But, the size of the cake was very small. read more

On my second visit to this fantastic restaurant, I found the same friendly service and tasty food. Another gorgeous day allowed an incredible al fresco lunch option. We sat all the way in the back closest to the river and bridge. The view cannot be beat. Tons of shade trees and birds chirping really added to the quality of our experience. Our server was a young girl who was very sweet. She was busy but never acted rushed. She brought a refill of my iced tea without being asked. It's those little things that brings the service level up a notch. The menu is diverse and everything my friends and I have ever tried is absolutely delicious. They offer several vegan choices for those looking for non-meat options. The beer and cocktail choices are de-licious too. This is a must stop on your visit to Cedarburg! read more
