Kroll’s South Loop

Cheeseheads reserve most of their enthusiasm for pigskins, but they can muster some excitement over curds once in a while, too. At this offshoot of a Green Bay staple, you can do both: Flat screens show football and other sports, and the kitchen puts out authentic Dairyland fare. Butter burgers—topped with ketchup, pickles, raw white onions and, of course, a buttered, grilled bun—are cutely wrapped up in butcher paper. Otherwise, thin-crusted pizzas and chewy, golden fried curds make good beer accompaniments.
