Al Johnson’s is by far my favorite thing about coming to Door County. Not only is the atmosphere fun and authentic, but the food is great and the people are wonderful! This has become a family tradition for us. Make sure to check out the amazing gift shop, and don’t forget to try the Swedish pancakes!!

Great restaurant located in Sister Bay, Wisconsin. Serves the usual Swedish cuisine. The meatballs are fabulous. We went back twice during the week and on the second trip I just had the breakfast pancake special. It was great. Expect at least and hour wait but worth it. There is a gift shop attached and an outdoor bar area. Look for the goats on the roof.

Everything seems authentic. The waitline was 2.5hrs for us when we went on 9am on a Saturday. Went inside at 11.07am. They do everything in the old fashioned way which make it’s special, however, this wasted a couple of hours of our short trip due to just waiting. You can’t leave the premise in peace because they only call the name in a mic. There’s a very cute gift ship to wander. Bummed a little cz the goats were not on the roof may be because it was little raining in the morning. All the roofs are green roofs with grass. The place was very clean. All the food was super yummy no arguments on that! Prices are reasonable. We got meatballs, pancakes special, egg Benedict and bread peacan pudding, you get free refills for coffee. The swedish pancakes were almost like crepes and so yummy! It’s definitely a unique place. If the waitline is over two hours, you could possibly go towards the boat dock and walk around. But make sure to be there 30 mins earlier the time given.

This is a very neat little place. The atmosphere is unique and lovely, and the location is right on the main drag. The goats were not out on the roof when I went, and I’m not sure when they’re put up there.

Al Johnson’s is great! You must plan your adventure as the wait is very long. If you arrive when they open, you will be better off. They now have the beergarden which can make you wait more enjoyable. Seeing the goats on the roof was amazing.

Went with the family, when I had time in-between work. I was told to check this place out and I saw this on one of the Discovery Wisconsin places. This place totally was a cool place to definitely check out. The goats are out on the roof!! The food was great, they give you alot of portions. The service was awesome and kind. The atmosphere was really nice! They also have a store attached to the restaurant. Loved everything in the store just about. I definitely got some gifts for xmas this year! This absolutely a gem!! Highly recommended.

So an hour late around noon but understandable how it’s a door County staple restaurant lol. Our server was very nice but definitely got the vibe of wanting to get us out for the next customer.

We ate at the beer garden which is really nice. Its a great outdoor space! Long lines for drinks, but kind of to be expected. Very busy too. The Swedish meatballs with mashed potatoes and lingonberries is delicious!

Great food and fun Swedish atmosphere. Due to popularity, during the spring/summer season, anticipate a 15-30 minute wait once checked in (at least). There is an outdoor beer garden with games and activities. Parking can be scarce, so allow an extra 10 minutes to find parking and walk to the business.
