Dot's Tavern
About This Spot
Dot’s Tavern feels like a quiet secret nestled just off the beaten path in Belleville—a small, unassuming spot where time slows down and genuine connections take center stage. Stepping inside, you’re met with the warm embrace of a space that’s both cozy and full of character: the kind of place where the low ceiling and intimate layout invite easy conversations, while the hum of the jukebox and clatter of bumper pool add a playful, lived-in energy.
The tavern’s charm isn’t found in polished perfection but in its honest, welcoming nature. It’s the kind of bar where locals gather not just for a drink but to share moments—laughing over spirited bar games or swapping stories at the outside tables set under the Wisconsin sky. The atmosphere strikes a careful balance between familiar comfort and quirky personality, making it feel like a home away from home for both longtime regulars and curious visitors alike.
While the drink selection helps set the tone, it’s the presence of the food truck outside that quietly enriches the experience. The humble approach to food here matches the tavern’s spirit—thoughtful, friendly, and focused on simple pleasures that keep people coming back. Whether settling into the cellar’s cozy nook or enjoying the open-air vibe with friends, there’s an unmistakable feeling of belonging and easy camaraderie that lingers long after the last round.

What a cool and funky little bar. Stopped in as was always curious about Dots. Very fun, the people were so friendly and welcoming, not a big space, but huge in personality! Definitely will be back.

Awesome place to rest up mid-hike or bike ride on the Badger State Trail/Ice Age Trail. We stopped after a long hike and enjoyed a beer and pop. Great socially distanced seating in the back. Inside is closed, except for the restroom and atm (note they only take cash). Would absolutely recommend!

Right on the Badger State Trail, perfect stop for a "frosty one" before riding on.
