Not sure if it's still open for business...
Never heard of it. Where's it at? I traveled almost the entire state of Wisconsin in the 21 years I lived there.

Marinette - Racine - Platteville - Superior - Ashland - Cable - Brillion - Shawano - Wausau - Iola - Stevens Point - Wisconsin Rapids - Tomah - Sparta - La Crosse - Madison - Milwaukee - Oconomowoc - Kenosha - Portage - Oshkosh - Fond du Lac - Sheboygan and most places in between.....

Sorry, it's in the southwest corner. Don't remember exact location. Was a kid when I went there.

Had to look it up....

It was in Johnson Creek - which is between Madison and Milwaukee in what I would call southeast Wisconsin - just off I94. Of course if you lived in the Milwaukee area - everything west of Milwaukee was southwest Wisconsin....

It closed in 1992. The Harwigs sold the building and it housed several different restaurants over the years.



It is now The Gobbler Theater after it reopened in the original building in 2015.

That building is most excellent! Looks to have been built in the early to mid sixties.
