Where Bayfield Meets

The Pier Lounge is known to locals and friends as The Pickled Herring. Whether you join us inside at the bar or outside on our (dog friendly!) deck, it’s a great place to lay back and enjoy the lake view along with one of our Wisconsin-brewed tap beers or daily drink specials. Bayfield strawberries and raspberries, when in season, make the best margaritas and daiquiris! As the leaves start to change colors in the Fall, so do the seasonal favorites - people come just to taste our Bayfield Apple Cider Sangria. Order an appetizer or food from the restaurant for yourself or the kids.
