We brew locally, serve chef-driven dishes, and create unforgettable experiences. Ottawa, IL is home to The Lone Buffalo, our first restaurant and the home of our original craft brewery. It’s also home to our hops and barley farm, whose crop we use to create our authentic Farm to Foam beers. At the heart of the Lone Buffalo are the large twin copper brewing kettles, imported from Bavaria, and admired and enjoyed by fans far and wide.

Some sandwiches are worth the trip. Meet the Halfway to Nashville, one of our most popular handhelds, and for good reason.

Choose a crispy or grilled chicken breast, then pile on dry-rub seasoning, Carolina BBQ sauce, pepper jack cheese, crispy bacon, dill pickles, and frites aioli, all served on a toasted brioche bun.

Bold, smoky, tangy, and just the right amount of heat.

Perfect for lunch. Perfect for dinner. Perfect for you.
