About

Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant & Butik is unique, a step back in time to great food and fast service. Enjoy dining with goats on the roof!

Story

Al Johnson’s is an authentic Swedish family owned restaurant where you can find goats grazing the sod roof. It's quite a sight, and it's made this place one of the most famous restaurants in Door County. Inside the casual, carpeted dining room, young ladies in Scandinavian garb dish out limpa bread and Swedish meatballs.

The menu consists of a variety of Swedish fare, from pancakes with lingonberries to Swedish meatballs, whitefish, sandwiches, salads, and a variety of hot and cold plates.

Probably one of the best breakfasts I have ever had out. The Swedish pancakes special was amazing. It was served with a side of Swedish meatballs even. Coffee was excellent. Great decor. Awesome shop inside. We ate at the bar to avoid the hour long wait. The bar was adorable and there was no lack of service. Excellent experience all around.

Excellent place. Cool experience, food was delicious!!! Definitely a destination type restaurant. Will be back, do recommend you make a stop when in Door county. ...... Oh ya, goats are on the roof of the restaurant eating it's grass roof. (If that doesn't make you want to go, well... Your just weird then)

Wonderful food! Loved the turkey oven roasted sandwich. Been there during a fall color weekend, was crowded. Minimum 45 minutes of wait time. Food arrived fast after order. Be prepared to wait.

The food is great and I usually have a good time at this Swedish themed restaurant. This time however, our server was horrendous. She spilled water on me twice (once on my phone and second on my meal). She rudely said "I am your server" when I was speaking to another server (I mentioned to my friends I wanted toast and the other server heard me and attempted to assist me). Furthermore, she gave the general impression that she was doing us a huge favor by serving us. We were not rude to this woman so I have no idea where her bad attitude and rude behavior came from. I have never had such a rude server in the 20+ years I've been visiting Al Johnson's.

Great comfort food that arrives fast. Also very cool to see the goats on the roof! The wait to get seated is usually very long, the dining room is quite crowded, and the last time we dined there we had to ask the waitress for several things that were included on our meals but that she forgot to bring. Definitely something to experience while in Sister Bay, especially if you like Swedish Meatballs and Swedish Pancakes!!
