Farm Grown. Pub Comfort. Two decades before Orchard opened in Verona, Deirdre Birmingham and John Biondi began work on a farm in the Driftless Area planting trees that, mostly, did not exist in this country.16,000 apple trees. Not eating apples. English and French cider varieties, certified organic. After20 years of improving drinks made from these apples, they built Orchard.Now drinks at Orchard trace back to the orchard in Mineral Point. The kitchen runs with the same patience as the farm. Chef Ian sources from the grower network Deirdre and John built before the restaurant.Friday fish fry is a weekly ritual. Brick-oven pizzas rotate seasonally. Saturday and Sunday brunch draws a crowd that lingers longer than planned. The patio fills early on warm evenings and is the best sunset seat in Verona. Orchard hosts private events, from corporate dinners to family celebrations. Come to Orchard and be part of a Wisconsin tradition run by people who grew the drink in your hand.

    One of the best dinners I’ve ever had! Eating here has been on my bucket list for many years, at least since way back, when Rush Limbaugh used to talk about it on his radio show ( I really loved him). Thank you for such a memorable and very delicious meal.

    The halibut was delicious! I was hoping to bring home leftovers but actually ate the entire meal myself. Our server was also very gracious without being overbearing. We were entertaining someone from out-of-town, and this was the perfect evening.
