Jan 09, 2025
Congratulations Kegel's Inn for serving customers for 100 years. The German restaurant has been in the same West Allis location serving up drinks and food for a century.The restaurant was started in 1924 by John T. Kegel who immigrated to the United States from Austria. It began as a prohibition-era speakeasy that marketed itself as a 'soda pop shop'. The restaurant survived prohibition, economic downturns, wars, pandemics, and more. Now, it is run by fourth-generation owners Julian and Stephanie Kegel.To celebrate the big occasion and bring in the new year, Kegel's Inn hosted a N/A Day. Inside a tent next to the restaurant, eventgoers got to taste about a dozen different type of non-alcoholic drinks from beers, to wines, to seltzers, and cocktails. It was part of the Dry January tradition where people refrain from alcohol after the holidays.Kegel's Inn offers N/A drinks all throughout the year. Similarly, there will be events to celebrate the 100th anniversary with jazz nights and comedy shows.Go to the Kegel's Inn website for more details.Its about time to watch on your time.
