What Brenda Weits likes about Der Rathskeller:
This restaurant is a fantastic spot to enjoy live music, enjoy a cold beer or glass of wine, catch a movie, indulge in some delicious Babcock Ice Cream, admire artwork, socialize with friends, and much more. View all feedback. What Mike W doesn't like about Der Rathskeller:
Great food but sloppy service. Terrace crew take their sweet time no matter how long the line is. Only one person taking order even during peak hours. Expect 45 min wait between joining end of line and getting your food. View all feedback.

There is nothing like having lunch at The Union and watching a Badger game. Makes a 71 year old feel young again.

Very tasty buffalo chicken wrap! Minus 1/2 star because it started to rain when I went to sit by the lake. Lol.
