Broken Barrel Bar & Grill

Our Story

Brian and Tracy Teetzen had so much fun building The Cracked Pot that they knew they had more to offer. Their second restaurant, just a few blocks down Central Avenue in the former Stefano's and Bandana's space, lets these two restaurateurs—who met as teenagers working in a restaurant and pursued other careers (he in construction, she in engineering) before following their dream—bring in recipes inspired by their travels and Midwest roots. Classic American with their own twist: burgers on homemade Kaiser buns, brats topped with cheese curds, a ginormous breaded pork tenderloin, wood-fired flatbreads from a rustic brick oven, and steaks with their signature Barrel baked potato (baked then deep fried). Open kitchen concept with whimsical touches throughout, including a welcoming flamingo and a framed Mona Lisa holding a martini. Front patio with plans for a dog-friendly side yard.
