The Booyah Shed

The Booyah Shed is a small, countryside eatery in Green Bay, WI. Its bright colored walls house a small eating area and a friendly service/kitchen crew. The standout was their homemade cherry pie. The crust was flaky and the filling was full of deep, rich cherry flavors. The bowl of Booyah ($5.75) was heartwarming, filling, and a great value. The stew/soup was mildly seasoned with chicken, large chunks of potatoes, carrots, beans, and other vegetables. I found it needed more seasoning/pepper to elevate the flavor, but it was still satisfying. The blackened shrimp tacos were covered with a bright and acidic mango, strawberry, and jalapeño salsa. While the salsa was good, it unfortunately overwhelmed the shrimp's flavor. The flour tortilla was also slightly gummy. Note for first-time eaters: Ask the front window for the free gift - prepare to be entertained! Special thanks to Katrina for the great recommendations and the entertaining time when dolling out our first-time visitor gifts!

I was attending a conference at a hotel near this restaurant, and needed to grab a quick lunch in between events. Wanting to try some of the local flavors as a tourist from NY, this place seemed like a great fit! The service was extremely friendly and my food was served quickly. I got the booyah of course, cheese curds, and the Door county cherry pie. Everything was delicious and for under $20 it was an absolute steal! I noticed that they also serve cocktails, and they are only $6, so I will definitely be back before I leave Green Bay. HIGHLY recommend the Booyah Shed!

Best hidden secret in green bay that has just about anything you could think of that constitutes as comfort food. We got the Booyah... Had to, it's in their name. Absolutely delicious, they like to call it chicken soup on steroids😂 We also got the pulled pork tacos.... Better than most meat places I have gone. Also we tried the carrot cake and it was super moist, and the icing wasn't too sweet like most. Lastly the place just feels so welcoming, staff are super friendly and willing to joke too😂 If I ever make it back to Wisconsin I will be sure to return to this place to try a few more things on their giant menu.

The perfect place to get your Booyah! Also the curds are great! It’s a small little place and super simple but it’s great! Parking was easy . We went at lunch on a weekday. Service was quick.

It's the Booyah Shed!!! We loved this place. Nothing fancy, but delicious food in a family-friendly atmosphere.

Just enjoyed a great Friday perch fry at The Booyah Shed. Thanks to Dan the owner who posted a Reel letting us know what he was cooking. This wasn't our first visit. Some of my other favorites are cheese curbs that cooked perfectly. The pulled pork sandwich and the pulled pork nachos are so good, the meat is so tender and flavorful. Dan also fries up a tasty Reuben. Not to be forgotten is the signature Booyah, excellent comfort food. The booyah is available hot or you can get it refrigerated of frozen to take it to go. The menu is large and the food is reasonably priced. The friendly and fun staff make it a pleasure to dine there.

Amazing experience. Cryss the waitress/hostess… (yes I spelled that right) was amazing. Apparently all the burgers are handpattied! Home made booyah, homemade basically everything. This place is great and accommodating for everyone even for people with gluten allergies. 100% recommend.

The place was packed when we arrived with a queue as well as when we left. The Boo Yah is delicious and local to Green Bay as were the homemade popper tots and Friday fish fry. The staff were super friendly serving all sorts of NFL fans in tiwn for the NFL draft.

Such a fun historical place. Great little vibe, great variety of food and the best booyah!

Excellent food. I went in the middle of the day just after arriving into town. The place was empty but it had the look of a place that gets busy around meal times. I ordered some of the Booya and a couple of appetizers to go. Very good even though I ate in my hotel room.

Yelp brought us here for lunch on a Saturday in mid-October. In town for the Packers/Texans game, this lunch shack was a few miles from our hotel and after reading the reviews, we took a chance on checking this out. Fortunately we were rewarded with a pleasant experience that was light on the wallet (for 2020s standards) and made us fans. Don't be fooled by the exterior/interior as it may give a cabin-like feeling when you're around. The staff are diligent in making the tables clear while getting orders ready. They only had two people working who both were doing the cooking, phone orders, in-person orders, and cleaning/bussing. Talk about a do-it-all crew. Now for the eats. I ordered a bowl of booyah and some cheese curds while pops had a plain burger. My first time having booyah, it reminds me of brunswick stew; tons of chicken, potatoes, vegetables, beans, in a thick tomato broth. Tons of flavor and quite filling, there's a reason why they sell quarts of this for tailgating and the cold stay-at-home days. I would dip my cheese curds in here which were also tasty. Right fried texture with a good cheese pull, dip it in the booyah for some of that salty consistency. Talk about a food-cheat code! My pops burger was cooked a perfect medium-rare and for only $6, was quite a bargain. This will be on the rotation whenever I'm in Green Bay for the Booyah and to try other items like their poutine and fried cod dinners. Booyahkasha!

Always a good experience. For the last 3 Fridays, my wife and I have come in for their fried cod dinner. Thick meaty pieces, great breading, and house-made tartar sauce to go with it. Last time we were there I thought, I'll snag some Booyah and take it home. This stuff is like medicine. At the whole quart in one sitting. Delicious.

I had the cat fish plate. Great fish crispy with a wonderful coating. Warm and friendly service. I also had a bratwurst as well good flavor. Nice and clean place small.

I've driven past for a long time and finally had a chance to give it a try. Overall, it was a good first experience. Unfortunately, while I'd give the experience a 4.5 star rating, the big brains at Yelp still won't let me give half stars. Anyway...the chicken booyah was good, I just wish it had been served at a higher temperature. The patty melt also suffered from not being super hot; but it had very good flavor. The stuffed potato tots were great. Hot and tasty. If everything had been hotter, I'd have probably gave a five as the staff was friendly and the quaint dining area was clean. There are lots of choices for anyone worried about finding something to eat. The prices were also reasonable. Don't hesitate to give them a try.

Delicious, family friendly. I highly recommend the poutine! The old fashioned are great too! Excellent service.

A lot of hype on TikTok and with the Green Bay foodies . The chicken booyah is delicious , a chicken soup on steroids if I had to explain it . Tacos were very good , very filling . The place has seating for 16 , but they do have a few tables outside if it's nice out. Service was pretty quick , place your order and just sit down . A Xmas tree still up in April ? Maybe a sick child works there?

Perch are good. Lightly breaded and tasty. Small order, 3 filets for $19. French fries are mediocre at best. Kringle cut with no flavor.

Top notch food! We walked in at 4:50 on a Monday evening. We noted the hours in the door and were prepared to leave to respect their hours. They insisted we come in and then went through the menu with us. We got the jalapeño cheddar tots, curds, mahi fish tacos and a fabulous bbq pork, bacon and bacon jam sandwich. While we waited the lovely lady at the counter brought us a small taste of Booyah since we had mentioned we were from out of town. WOW! I plan to buy a quart and freeze it in my son's dorm fridge for when he needs soup. Oh! We also got a slice of cherry pie. My son took a bite and said "holy cow! There's actually cherries in this pie!" We loved everything we had and will definitely be back! We told the other parents at college orientation about it and said they need to visit. Food is 5 stars and so is the service. So glad they allowed us the opportunity to visit!!

I visited Green Bay for the first time and only had one day to explore. I wanted to try some regional food that I had never tried before and had seen a social media post for "booyah" so figured I'd go to the Shed and give it a try. Well, I'll just summarize my review by saying it was nothing to write home about. It's basically a savory, hearty, vegetable stew. It was good and probably better on a very cold GB day but I wasn't impressed. Might have better with lots of melted gooey cheese Wisconsin cheese on top. I had it with an order of battered cheese curds but I'm really not sure what's the hype about them, either. They too were just alright. On a positive note, the price was fair and the Shed was a quaint and had a cool vibe.

the food was AMAZING! it was a nice and quiet environment and the service was perfect. Best place to go for Friday night fish fry! cheaper prices but still amazing quality fish and service

When visiting a new area, we are always interested in trying the regional specialties. Around Green Bay, that would be booyah, a special chicken and vegetable stew. The Booyah Shed is the highest rated place and we decided to stop in for a week day dinner. The restaurant has a small seating area (it only seats 16 per the fire code) with a drive through. You order at a window, where the very friendly owners will greet you and make you feel at home. There's a rubber chicken to the side of the window, so if you don't see anyone there, squeeze it to annoy the heck out of everyone (and summon the owners). A sign adorning the exterior advertises how many of the items there are homemade: tater tots, ice cream, chili, etc. We wanted to try quite a number of dishes, but only had stomach space enough for two items that evening. Booyah, Bowl ($5) - This is comfort food at its finest. Just a hearty chicken and vegetable stew in a slow cooked tomato chicken broth. Filled with shredded chunks of dark and white meat chicken, with lots of veggies, including mirepoix, wax beans, green beans, peas, and chunks of potato. The chicken comes in smaller shredded bits as well as larger chunks, but none of them are stringy enough to be caught in your teeth. The stew has the perfect seasoning and salt levels. It calls for nothing, other than perhaps to be topped with the one pack of oyster crackers it's served with. This is a dish that anyone would crave on a cold day or while sick. (5/5) Poutine ($13) - Woah, this was an absolutely giant basket of poutine. I was expecting half as much food, but this was more than enough to serve as an entree. The poutine consists of commercial crinkle cut fries, topped with freshly fried cheese curds and homemade gravy. The fries are perfectly fried with a crisp exterior and tender fluffy interior. They are sprinkled and mixed liberally with seasoning salt. It's not that evenly applied though, as we found some of the fries to be much saltier than others. The cheese curds have a light batter on the exterior with only a very soft, slight crisp. The interior is fresh, with a firm chew and as they cool down, a good amount of squeak while somewhat sticking on the teeth. In some fried curds, the cheese is completely melted and sticks to the exterior batter, resulting in a hollow geode. The gravy tastes quite aromatic with a lot of vegetable notes, but I wasn't getting any hints of meat in it. According to the menu it's made from the booyah stock/drippings. The gravy is reduced until very thick and viscous, almost the texture of gelatin. I think the components are pretty good separately, but added together doesn't quite come together to a cohesive whole. (3/5) While eating, we heard one of the other customers talking about the handmade cheese-filled golf ball sized tater tots. We were so intrigued that we went back the next day to get more food: Homemade Tots, Cheesy ($4.50) - You get four of these massive, golf ball sized tater tots per order. At first they look and feel exactly like hushpuppies - golden brown on the outside with a nice crisp exterior crust from the batter. Then you realize the inside consists of shredded potatoes, like hashbrowns hand grated though a box grater. The potatoes are a bit al dente with somewhat of a bite instead of being completely soft and tender like a frozen tater tot. It's stuffed with cheese, making a good cheese pull and adding fat and a pleasing creaminess. Overall a very unique and delicious tater tot. (5/5) Bacon Jam Grilled Cheese ($7.50) - The star here is the bacon jam. Sweet, savory, smoky, meaty filled with small bacon pieces. This is spread on the top slice of a piece of thick cut Texas toast, perfectly toasted on the outer sides, leaving the untoasted inner face fluffy and soft. This allows the thinner parts of the jam to soak into the bread. The jam meets the melted cheese on the other piece of toast. Delicious. (5/5) We also got a bowl of Booyah again, which tasted exactly the same as the previous day. Very consistent between visits! If you eat in, the owners give you souvenir rubber chicken slingshots! Fun all around! Just don't fire them onto the roof of the building! I definitely recommend The Booyah Shed for some delicious homemade food. This is the kind of business everyone should be supporting. Bathrooms - One unisex room in the back Overall rating of the food: 4.5/5

Went twice in 3 days during our visit. Great service both times. Great food both times. We ordered different menu items on both visits. On the first visit the order consisted of a steak sandwich, cheese curds, fries, hamburger, shrimp basket drinks!! Very good!!!! The second time, we ordered onion tangles, cheese curds, tots, shrimp basket, burger and a cup of booyah!!! We will definitely visit once more before we leave. Do yourself a favor and pull up!!

This place is small but has great food. The menu is on a large blackboard, a big menu that's why the blackboard is huge. They have carry outs. My wife had the perch. The best she has ever had. I had the booyah mmmm! Great service and they cater to ex-military and serving.

Oh. Wow. In town from St. Louis, and wanted something very local. We found it. I grew up about 90 miles from GB and have had Booyah before. But this was epic. It was cool and raining, and it was spot on. Not sure I ever had a soup/stew as deep and complex in a long time. My wife had the best Swedish meatballs we ever tasted, albeit the meat was a tad dry. But the noodles. The sauce. Perfect. Wait. Beyond perfect. I love this little place!

This cute little food stop is definitely worth a visit if you're in the area of Green Bay! The staff are friendly and attentive, the food is excellent, and everything is fresh! I definitely recommend giving it a try! When you do, be sure to try their Booyah soup! It's delicious!

What a great little place! Lots of locals in and out of there the whole time we were there picking up quarts of Booyah for tailgating! We were in Green Bay for the game and this was my first time eating Booyah, very tasty. I'm glad we went to the Booya shed.!

Home cooking touch . Good soup. Owner operator restaurant . Better than typical fast food joint

So clean you could eat off the floor, but you will sit at the tidy tables and enjoy delicious food perfectly prepared. I had beer battered cod plate with cole slaw, and perfect krinkley fries!! My new place for Friday fish fry, will have perch next time.

The place was great. Staff was very friendly. The food was outstanding and the service was spot on. I would absolutely love to go there again!

All Amazing, Great Staff, Great Decor, Food to die for. It is Clean, very nice place to eat, picture wall of people from other places

Amazing little shack of food. Fun family place that makes good fish fry, sandwiches, and pies. We stopped in on our way to the north woods. They rocked the food and everybody in the place was super friendly. They deserve their high ratings.

On a road rally n saw the rating on this place n the Shed didn't disappoint ! Everything we ordered was excellent and very tasty specially the Booyah soup! Thanks for the flying rubber chickens. You made our trip delightful - great service and great talking w you!

Some of the best Booyah soup I have ever had. Small place but worth the wait when there is a line. A true Green Bay hidden gem.

Found this little place I'd say it's a Green Bay Gem!! We are visiting and popped in there the workers were so kind and telling us all about the place and the menu is huge you can get almost anything!! We ordered a lot of different things and it was all delicious! Don't leave there without getting the carrot cake it's amazing!! My sister is gluten free so they helped her make sure what she ordered was GF they have so many options! Love a local spot they asked where we were from and all! Go check them out

Just had lunch: a bowl of booyah & a cheeseburger. Very pleased with everything. This diminutive restaurant exudes Green Bay charm. Very clean, a variety of items on the menu, daily specials, and inside seating. You place your order at the kitchen window, take your beverage to your table, and your food is brought to you. Prompt service. It appears many patrons carry-out their food. They do have a small canned beer selection to whet your whistle, too.

Nice cabin vibe. The lady who took our order was super polite and very helpful. The food was great. Real Wisconsin cheese curds hot and fresh. The tots we got an order of the cheddar tots which were very good and a order of the jalapeno bacon tots which were fantastic. The ranch dipping sauce was homemade and really good. I got the pulled pork sandwich which was very good and my wife got a brat that had a nice flavor. The booyah was a really nice flavored comfy vegetable soup with chicken. Will return.

This place screams Green Bay! Literally a small (hard to find) red shed that is a restaurant. Their specialty is Booyah (which is a unique local spin on chicken and vegetable soup). You can buy it by the cup, bowl,or quart. Eat in or take home. It's terrific! I usually get a bowl with my meal, and take a quart home for later. The shed is not only about soup.... It's got some great sandwich's too. I like the pulled pork tacos. However, the biggest gem on the menu (besides the booyah), is the stuffed homemade tots. Many different flavors. They are amazing, but tend to sell out during the day, so get there early.

Arrived before any lunch rush, which was good because the place isn't that big. My husband and son ordered burgers and fries and they loved them. I had the fried catfish sandwich with tater tots and it was phenomenal. A few hot sauces are available near the silverware section so I got to add something spicy to the sandwich. Just arrived from a flight and this was the first stop from the airport. It was a very good choice to make.

Service was very friendly. Prices were fair. Chicken booyah was delicious. I got a cup of it and wished I ordered a bowl. Bbq pork had a nice smoky flavor too. All in all I would recommend and will stop for lunch again if I am in the area.

I had heard great things about this place, and I really wanted to love it but unfortunately I did not. I love pulled pork so I ordered the Porker sandwich and it tasted like the thing had been submerged in liquid smoke. I guess it would be good if you LOVE liquid smoke, but for me it completely overpowered the sandwich and was just not enjoyable. I took about three bites and decided to order something else. I decided to play it safe and get the beer battered fish tacos. It was not a safe. With lack of better term... it was mushy. Mush in a tortilla. My mom ordered the booyah and it was bland. My fiance ordered the ice cream and the texture was like thick glue. The only things we truly enjoyed were the fries and lemonade. Regardless I feel I have to give this place 2 stars. I did enjoy the ambiance (super cozy, intimate vibe) and although they seemed a bit swamped the service was great. Really cute place with great people but they REALLY need to work on their food. Until then, I don't think we'll be coming back.

Great food, great service! Loved the atmosphere almost as much as we loved the Booyah soup!

Yummy and friendly. Highly recommend. Felt like home Go and enjoy I would eat there every day

A very family friendly place. The food came out quickly and was so delicious! Best perch I have ever had. Love the atmosphere. The staff is so friendly! Will be coming regularly for sure!!

The food was tasty and cooked correctly. The staff was friendly and restaurant is a warm atmosphere - would recommend!

I searched on yelp for local eats, and this gem popped up! 100% worth the detour from the interstate. We had booyah, cheesy tots - homemade tots with shredded potato and cheese inside, and curds. Everything was made fresh and fabulous!

The food was great & plenty of it! The service was quick for just 2-3 people working. Definitely a family run business to respect. Ambiance gives a cozy, farm, family friendly, vibe. Best part they shot a rubber chicken at you if it's your first time!

Best kept secret in Green Bay. Great menu, really good food. I'm just putting words here, because yelp requires minimum words

My wife and I stopped here for lunch today. The restaurant is small but very cozy inside. Wonderful pictures on all the walls. You squeeze the rubber chicken when you are ready to order, and it makes everyone laugh! The people working there are extremely friendly and truly interested in making sure their customers are happy. Now for the best part which is the food! To start with we ordered the poutine which is crisp hot French fries covered with cheese curds and home made gravy. It was so good I asked if it was possible to buy some gravy to take home, but unfortunately the answer was no, because it is made everyday from the juice of the Booyah , so it is not mass produced. We also ordered burgers. I ordered the Pesto burger which comes with sun dried tomatoes. I like my burgers rare and it was cooked perfectly! My wife ordered the burger with the bacon jam and cheese. She likes hers medium and again cooked to perfection. We both looked at each other and said ," This is one of the best burgers I have ever been served!" We look forward to our next trip to Green Bay so we can eat here again! I would have given them 10 stars if I could!!

The service was fast and the food was great. A small place. But you could do takeout if you had a lot of people

The food was delicious. The staff couldn't be nicer!!!!! There's pictures of previous guests all over which make it feel so homey

Homemade with love, served with kindness and a real taste of why I love visiting Wisconsin. Thanks, Sherry!

This place is tops! Great menu, great home cooked, YES THEY HAVE CHEESE CURDS but seriously it's just fantastic food lovingly made with a great variety of offerings. I wanted to find fresh made chicken soup for my brother who was sick - I purchased 4 quarts (1 hot & 3 cold) and of course a grilled cheese for me as I drove to him. As an excellent cook myself you could call me a bit particular when it comes to a menu. This one's a winner. It was the advice of the Booyah Shed to get a quart hot btw. Extremely impressed! You will not be disappointed.

Some of the best food in Green bay. And an absolute must for anyone that enjoys quality food. Everything is home made. We had fresh perch breaded and fried with a side of booyah and baby reds. oh MAN! The atmosphere is relaxing and comfortable. And the service was amazing, like your at grandma's and your her favorite one.

Finally was able to try the Friday cod. The fish was served hot and tasty. The breading was good and the tarter I think was a homemade one. The fries were hot and crispy. Just the way I like them. However, after eating and being stuffed I still kind of wish I would have gotten a cup of booyah too. It just is so good that I feel weird not getting it.

Great food, great personal service, and a very cozy dining area. Very clean with a nice welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back repeatedly! They have something on the menu for everyone!

Great food, good prices and fun atmosphere. They gave our "kids" rubber chicken slingshots and they had too much fun with them.

Stopped for lunch. So friendly! Steak sandwich was so yummy and we all know they are either great or crap! Family friendly, quick and filling. Just how I like lunch!
