Wilson's Restaurant & Ice cream Parlour

'Wilson's Restaurant and Ice Cream Parlor has been located in the heart of Ephraim since 1906. A classic Door County landmark that possesses the enchantment to take the youngest visitors back in time with its old-fashioned soda fountain and ice cream specialties, home-brewed draft root beer, flame broiled burgers and juke boxes playing the classics.' 

Another favourite McKenna haunt besides Al Johnson's that goes back to their childhood summers spent during the 1950's at Door county. 

Add: 9990 Water Street, Ephraim,

Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant

First stop in Door County: Warren's favorite restaurant, Al Johnson's (where on at least 3 visits I have observed him relish the pickled herring with much gusto).

Al Johnson's, a family owned Swedish restaurant where goats grazing on the sodded roof are just as popular as the lingonberry jam. A feat achieved with a fantastic vision? Epic! Wouldn't it be equally and doubly magnificent to see sodded roofs in cities, town, villages? What a sight to behold every morning, afternoon and evening! Think of sitting on one soft, grassy rooftop and observing many others blend into a green horizon. Such magnificence...

From pancakes to Swedish meatballs, the restaurant specialises in sandwiches, salads, and a variety of hot and cold plates. They also specialize in sweet girls in traditional Swedish costumes running around with trays and blonde pigtails bobbing all over the restaurant.
