No Rules Gallery & Bird of Paradise Tea - Spring Green
This eclectic Spring Green spot is part local art gallery, part tea shop and part bakery. A rotating cast of colorful paintings covers the walls; jars of loose tea line the shelves; and the scent of baking cookies wafts from the kitchen.

Spring Green General Store - Spring Green
This small-town cafe and general store has become the town’s local gathering spot. During the week, grab everything from a California chicken salad to vegetarian chili to a hummus sandwich loaded with veggies. On the weekend, stop in for family breakfasts where you’ll find everything for the kids to the grandparents, from egg plates to Southwest Wisconsin fare to sweet treats like pancakes and french toast - all made from locally sourced ingredients. This is also the place to buy quaint gifts, such as gardening gloves, artsy puzzles and homemade jams.
Nectar Bakery - Spring Green
Every creative menu item at Nectar Bakery is organic, made from scratch and baked with love. Nectar Bakery was created during the pandemic by Alyssa Janco after she fell in love with Spring Green during a temporary stop here to work with American Players Theatre.
Sip on a burnt honey latte while nibbling on a sourdough cinnamon roll in this cozy, sun-drenched bakery, named after Janco’s love of florals, her sustainability efforts and one of her final shows at APT: She Stops to Conquer.
