Klopp's 5th Avenue Bar - If you ever watched (and loved) the show “Cheers” you’ll feel right at home when you walk into Klopp’s. Widely known for their friendly atmosphere, cheap drinks and homemade pizza, this is sure to become a must stop. One of the great perks of stopping in for a drink at Klopp’s, the Laughing Goat Food Truck is right outside the door. If you haven’t tried that yet, you better mark it on your bucket list.

Round Man Brewing Co. - And the winner of the Best of WashCo: Best Pour for 2024 is Washburn County's first brewery, Round Man Brewing Co. Located in downtown Spooner, Round Man offers 18 artisan taps flowing with RMBC's original brews and signature favorites. Start of with a flight to sample some of their top brews before you make your final selection, or just order another flight because they're all so good! Pair your brew with their smoked turkey nachos or order up a wood stone pizza.
