There’s even a throne – otherwise known as “the big famous chair" – which guests can try out.

The big famous chair isn’t the only oversized item at Mader’s, though. There’s also the giant pretzel, which is equally as famous.

Since day one, which was back in 1902, Mader’s has specialized in German grub, making it Milwaukee’s oldest authentic German restaurant – and a great place to get a taste of Germany.

Between the castle-like appearance and fantastic fare, it should come as no surprise that Mader’s has received numerous awards over the years.
