This won’t be new news to most of our readers, but since we’re getting the word out more and more online about one of the best family vacation destinations in the Mid-West, we figured Door County visitors should know why they have to eat at Al Johnson’s:

1. The Goats on the Roof!

Even my little three year old talks about the place where the “goats eat all the grass off the roof…” FYI, many may think this is a Swedish tradition but it’s not. According to one of the native Swede’s that I talked to in the gift shop, the grass on the roof is tradition but the goats was something they did for fun and it stuck. I’d say it is one of the big draws and for this, it gets NUMBER 1!

2. The Swedish Pancakes with strawberries and whipped cream.

There isn’t too much I have to say about this. Just look at the picture and let your mouth water!

3.The Best Family Atmosphere.

Everyone in our family loves this place. We don’t have to worry about the kids being a bit rambunctious and the food is amazing.  It’s definitely one of those family traditions that, when we go to Door County, it’s a no-brainer that we’re eating at Al Johnson’s.

I’m sure the list could go on and on.
