A&W – American
This nostalgic haven captures the essence of classic roadside dining, where the signature clink of heavy glass mugs signals the arrival of a frothy, ice-cold root beer float. Hearty burgers dripping with garlic aioli and melted Swiss find their perfect match in golden, hand-breaded chicken tenders and the irresistible, salty snap of Wisconsin white cheddar cheese curds.
