Good for business meals

Orchard is a stylish yet inviting restaurant that celebrates the best of Wisconsin’s culinary heritage with a fresh, global twist. Rooted in an actual organic orchard growing English and French cider apples, Orchard crafts exceptional wine-like ciders and European-style apple brandies. The kitchen, led by Chef Ian Hutchins—newly arrived from Vancouver—emphasizes locally sourced ingredients, complemented by thoughtfully curated ciders, craft beers, wines, and cocktails from sustainable producers. With over 30 years of experience in the organic community, we partner with local farmers and growers to bring the freshest, highest-quality ingredients to every dish. The Orchard experience is both exciting and approachable, offering a warm Midwest welcome alongside internationally acclaimed ciders, innovative plates, and inspired cocktails.

Date night here was great—something a little different! We tried several ciders and all were good—oak was our favorite though. Food was good, and our server Colleen was excellent!

The atmosphere is open and welcoming, and the bar and tables are nicely set out, will be even better when outdoor patio is open. Enjoyed the chance to sample 4 ciders. I do wish there were more lager beer or light beer selections, and to have two or three choices of red bottles of wine, as well as the ciders. The fish tacos were good, but the orchard burger was too heavy. When the "bill" came, it was disappointing that we were not given a written bill so that we could check it and take our time with payment and tip, rather than the server telling us the amount and waiting.

New restaurant working out the kinks. Food was mostly good, although the pizza crust was very thick and doughy. The spicy chicken sandwich was fantastic and the vinaigrette on my side salad was perfect. And the cider is great! We’ll go back when the weather is better to enjoy the cider and sit in the patio.

Really enjoyed dining at Orchard on opening weekend. The space is bright and inviting, with a wide range of table sizes and arrangements to seat parties of varying sizes. I tried a cocktail featuring cider and pommeau, while the friend I dined with had a flight of ciders to explore the award-winning selection from The Cider Farm. As a regular at their former tasting room, I was excited to see the (large) soft pretzel with cheese sauce and mustard made it on the menu, so we had that to start. I ordered the hot fried chicken sandwich, which was super crispy, something you don't always see when fried foods are prepared to be gluten-free. My friend had one of the pizzas, which looked incredible and she enjoyed. Service was friendly, with both of the owners stopping by to check in on us as we enjoyed our evening.
