Hungry?  Thirsty? Just want to unwind and enjoy some local culture?  Look no further than the Ruebel.  Our restaurant and western saloon are open every day.

A true piece of American history, our magnificent burled walnut bar was originally part of the Bavarian Exhibit at the 1904 World's Fair, then shipped here from St. Louis via packet boat.  The custom-built back bar is accented with two antique tin ceiling panels, discovered above the main entrance awning when the hotel was renovated in 1996.  Now our beautifully restored "Tin Ladies" proudly greet patrons seated at the bar. 

Our menu features some of the classic Grafton cuisine, namely catfish fillet and fritters, as well as buffalo and walleye.  If you're not in the mood for fish, you can order a great T-bone steak or a fully-loaded pan or thin crust pizza.  We also offer more "comfort food" staples like burgers and fries, soups and salads, shrimp, pork and chicken dishes, and plenty of mouth-watering appetizers.

On the weekends, you're likely to find some of the best live music on either side of the river.  Dan Sproat, a house favorite, plays everything from oldies and classic rock to country and pop on multiple instruments.  You may even see a talented bartender or Ruebel regular take the stage for a song or two, or join in yourself on a full-bar sing-a-long.
