Our Purpose
At David Reay’s Modern Diner + Tavern, our mission is to improve the happiness of our guests, employees, and the communities in which we serve. We are all about friends, family, fun, and fresh fare using local and regional ingredients. We put a modern spin on the old-school diner experience and specialize in modern comfort food and contemporary elixirs that brings people together for a great time. If you are looking for a perfect blend of home-style cooking and a lively tavern then look no further! Our #1 goal is that you leave our restaurant wanting to come back for more.
The Food
We make most of our menu from scratch using fresh, local & regional ingredients, high-quality cuts of meats, real Wisconsin cheeses, and fresh baked breads. Everything is made-to-order and served in a timely fashion.
Our menu caters to most diets including meat eaters, vegetarians, gluten-free, Atkins, and vegans alike! Don’t forget to check our all-local dessert menu which includes ice cream from the award-winning Pearl Ice Cream Parlor in downtown La Crosse, Wisconsin.
The Drinks
We offer 16 beers on tap mostly made up of Wisconsin and Minnesota craft beers. We have a wide selection of wines, whiskeys, vodkas, tequilas, and bottled beers. Our creative drink program offers unique libations that will quench anyone’s thirst – including homemade sodas!
