The Junkyard Bar: A Unique Experience in Shell Lake, WI

Stopped by with some friends that have a cabin close by, and it is a unique, one of a kind, must-see local venue! The atmosphere is amazing, the staff was wonderful, had a short list of typical decent bar food, & a small but nice beer selection. We are absolutely coming back!

Super awesome place!! Love the whole vibe of the place! So many old cars and memorabilia to look at. There's an inside bar and a bar outside in a shipping container... very reasonably priced drinks! We only tried the special of the day which was a sloppy joe and coleslaw so I can't really say how the rest of the menu was... I think its more of a limited menu. Overall can't wait to go back.

Very unique bar, in the midst of a junkyard. Several very nice Mustangs in the owner's collection.

This is a completely unexpected find for NW Wisconsin - or nearly anywhere. We have friends that are new to the Webster WI area and we happened upon the Junkyard bar as we were riding our Harley’s throughout the area. So glad we found this place. First. It’s funky. Indoor/outdoor sitting areas with a relaxed Wisconsin vibe. The Junkyard is ALL about an eclectic collection of cars, motorcycles, snowmobiles and vintage signs and memorabilia. This place started out as a collectors hobby of old cars. Turned into a classic salvage yard of over 600 vehicles with a vast majority being Ford Mustangs. It’s evolves into a watering hole with weekend bands, and tables made with classic v8 motors inside them along with great signage and cool vibes. This is so unexpected for Webster WI — but just classic to see. The only sad part is you know that many of these old cars are rusting away in midwest summers and winters. It’s a must see if you like nostalgic muscle cars and 30-50’s vehicles. Grab a drink. Put your head on a swivel and look at all the memories. Walk through the sheds and check out just a small portion of classic cars versus what’s actually there. Have a look at google maps satellite view to see just how big the area is with cars you don’t see at the bar. Drinks are all modestly priced. Food is classic bar fare of pizzas, cheese curds, baked pretzels etc. Check it out. It’s worth the drive. Great place for gear heads!

Excellent atmosphere for car guys and gals. Large outdoor yard for exploring and viewing old cars. Indoor bar was awesome with the automotive displays. Food was very good and drinks were very good also. Added some pics. Yes those are car engines built into the bar tables. Incredible!

Cool, unique in the middle of nowhere bar. Lots of shit to look at! Our whole family was occupied here for half the day

Turns out I probably wouldn't eat here when I return - price combined with quality and portion was a little off for me and others in my group. Next time I'll still spend my money but on beer or apps. First time there and will be back - the old stuff to look at is endless. You want to visit this place. Fun enough place to visit and enough entertainment to drive a couple hours and go home.

Been here a time or two, really cool place to visit & see the cars and memorabilia. Bartender was prompt, courteous and very friendly. I ordered a some cheese curds, which I believe were baked and not deep fried, which was different but still very good. This is a must stop if you are into old cars and memorabilia of such.
