Jischke's Meat Market is a historic building located at 414 Maple Dr. in Sister Bay, Wisconsin. Built in 1902, the building was originally a butcher shop run by Frank Jischke and his son M. J. The Jischkes were German immigrants who settled in Door County in 1892; they originally lived in Ephraim and later moved to Sister Bay. In addition to his work at the butcher shop, M. J. Jischke was a prominent citizen in Sister Bay who served as constable and postmaster.[2]

The store is currently occupied by a bed and breakfast called the Inn on Maple. The inn uses the market as a gift shop and common area and has rooms in the Jischke's second floor living space.[3][4]

The store was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 11, 1986.[1]
