Stopped in, this was one of Grandma Mildred Smith's favorite places to bring people. We enjoyed a pan fried walleye, big wheel burger, Ruben and a grilled cheese. Carol was our table staff. What a great local spot. Food was excellent. We even enjoyed a couple pieces of pie. If you're in Watertown, stop in, you won't be disappointed. Thanks Carol.

Hot Beef Combo! That's it - That's what you should order when you come to the wheel inn. Honestly, all the rest of the food that my family tried was also good. Service is exceptional, and when you want down home good food, this is the place to go.

This is the place you’re looking for if you like super friendly staff and a nice quiet place to wind down after a hard day. Plus they have pie, homemade pie, everybody loves pie. I can’t recommend this place enough, especially as an out of town visitor.
