Goats on the roof at Al Johnson's restaurant. Sister Bay, Wisconsin - Goats on the Roof

Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant and Butik 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. [Jeremy, 04/30/2007]

Sister Bay, Wisconsin - Goats on a Rooftop

Reading on one of your links about goats on a rooftop in British Columbia reminded me that Wisconsin had one, too. It's in Sister Bay in Door County on the main highway through town. (Unless my memory's fogged, and it's in another of Door County's picturesque tourist traps.)

A google.com search says it's at Al Johnson's Swedish Restaurant and Butik, 702 Bay Shore Dr., Sister Bay: "This hot spot in Sister Bay features Swedish pancakes with lingonberry sauce (about $5.50)--and a bunch of surefooted goats grazing on the moss-covered roof. [James Janega, 07/04/2002]
