    Service was good and quick. Food taste delicious and didn't take forever. What more can you ask for? Oh. And the prices were super reasonable too! I we will definitely be back.

    Came out to Fox Lake last night and thought we would try the fish. I had the 5 piece cod and it tasted like VandeKamps, you would buy at the store, and the fries were soggy with no taste. My wife ordered the Walleye and she thought it tasted similar to my cod. Total bill was $37.00 with two drinks, really one of the most under-whelming fish fry's I've had.

    4/29/22 - 4:15 PM This place was recommended to me by a coworker. Out in the peninsula of Fox Lake, this place would be amazing to grab a drink in the summer. With it being Friday, they were barely able to accommodate my late minute party of 9. Started of with a Spotted Cow, and cheese curds, can't go wrong. They do have a food special for everyday of the week (AYCE Spaghetti Tuesday,Taco Thursday, Fish Friday, etc). Menu is filled with traditional offerings: burgers, pizza, chicken, soup/salad, etc. Overall...not bad at all. Pros: Great service Vegetarian friendly (veggie burger, appetizers, salads, etc) Daily food specials Location on the lakefront Nitpick: asked for no coleslaw/rye bread, still came with it.

    Excellent food and service and worth the drive and the view of the lake. Great atmosphere and tiki torches during the summer months

    The outdoor dining is very refreshing by the lake. Our server did a great job. Definitely will make the trip again.

    Stopped in on a recent Saturday for lunch. It was relatively quiet so bellied up to the bar…read more Sauer's is pretty spacious inside with the requisite gaming machines along the wall. My server/bartender was attentive and very welcoming. A solid selection of taps, cans/bottles and your standard offering of booze. They do have a menu of different old fashioneds for those inclined. Their menu is your standard pub options-appetizers, pizza, wings, burgers, sandwiches, and fish on Fridays. I opted for one of their daily specials-steak sandwich. I opted for the upgrade for the side of fries that came with and selected the pickle chips. I am glad I did as they are some of the best I have tasted in quite sometime. Thinly sliced, they were perfectly fried with a thin batter that didn't hide the flavor of the pickle. The sandwich also hit the mark-tender steak nestled between a ciabatta bun. It was great. Highly recommend checking out Sauer's-a solid pub with some great food.

    We stopped in for lunch. Our waitress, a young woman with a tattoo on her leg, didn't seem to know…read morewhat was going on. My spouse ordered the grilled cheese, which said on the menu it came with a choice of two cheeses. When he said which two cheeses he wanted, the waitress said that would be an extra charge. When he pointed to the menu, she said "she'd have to check". She never came back to tell us if he got two cheeses or not. We weren't given any utensils, so I had to get up and get my own from the hostess station. My burger had a very strong taste of livestock and barnyard. I also ordered an ice water which was almost undrinkable. At least invest in a faucet filter, guys. The homemade chips with garlic cream cheese were very good, though. At the end of the meal, the waitress brought our check, but then came and took it away from us because she forgot to add the beer my spouse ordered because their water had such a bad taste. Since she had already dropped the ball so many times, this could have been an opportunity to extend a gesture of good will and give it to him on the house, but alas. In addition, they have kind of a snotty little sign in the entrance demanding you wipe your feet as if you're a child, and they proudly display that they do not offer any service for their ample patio seating. Just not a great experience.

    A good experience over all. We visited on a Sunday as we were celebrating my mom's 79th birthday…read moreearly by exploring the Horicon marsh area. I live in Madison and she lives in Green Bay so we like to meet some where in the middle and find neat museums or events to visit. Well Mom wanted to visit the Horicon Marsh "Explorium" which we did. I would recommend. After we were looking for someplace local for lunch and found this pub in the town of Horicon. I was a little disappointed that the menu wasn't more Irish for an "Irish" pub but it was a good selection of Wisconsin American pub food. Burgers, wraps, pizza, fried apps, etc. looked like a large selection of beers and White Claw type alcohol drinks but as we had long drives we did not partake. I had the cheese burger with tots to share and Mom had the black bean burger. We were happy to see a couple of vegetarian options on the menu as Mom sometimes struggles with this. Service was very friendly and accommodating. Mom didn't want to sit at the bar because she is short and all the stools were tall. We instead were recommended a table in a sort of half partitioned side room. The stools were still tall but they had foot rings so Moms feet didn't dangle. It was also quiet enough we could talk easily vs. the bar area. Food arrived promptly and was well prepared. My burger was cooked perfectly and Mom's bean burger was served with sautéed mushrooms on a toasted bun. Both special requests. My tots were a big hit with Mom and I for being super crunchy but not over cooked. Value, our entire meal with several soda refills was $21. I think that is extremely reasonable. Note if that staff ever read this. I always try to pay when out with my Mom (especially when celebrating her b-day). But she's a stubborn lady. I've been paying admissions and souvenirs the last few trips to museums which I did again at the Explorium. So Mom insisted. I hope she tipped you well! Only complaint please add one Irish dish. I'd recommend "shepherd's" pie (really farmer's pie as lamb availability/price might not work). And more potatoes!

    Every meal my staff and I have had at Danny Boys has been great. The burgers are excellent. If you…read moreare ever nearby, I would highly suggest stopping in to have a great meal. The staff is very nice and fun to be around, as well.

    Soup flights for the win!…read more A last minute invitation resulted in us finding a restaurant we will definitely check out again in the future! A short drive from the Fox Valley, I was startled to see such a nice pub and grill. Looks great from the outside and even nicer in the inside. If I lived close by, I'm sure I'd be there frequently. Plenty of televisions, gaming machines and a well designed layout. I was seriously impressed. The night we went, they only offered soup flights. We were told by our friends, who had been there several times, that they offer only pizzas, soups and appetizers. Our friends had not tried the pizza but said the appetizers are great. There were literally a dozen soups to choose from for our flights. I picked sausage tortellini, clam chowder and stuffed pepper for my flight. It also comes with a piece of cheese/garlic bread. Not only were the soups nice and hot, they were all tasty. This sentiment was shared by my dining partners. The staff were friendly and helpful. The drinks were reasonable and well made. The ambience was excellent. Definitely a place we will return to!

    We happened upon Whiskey River Pub and Grill after finding several places closed or too busy…read more The space includes lots of nice touches: the seasoning caddies with the ability to select smaller or larger holes for shaking, the industrial styled chairs and Edison bulbs, the modern plates and unique silverware, cloth napkins, even the cast iron pizza pan with handles. There is a dartboard available and I noticed they had bottles of wine as well. There was just the one man who I believe is the owner working in front and he was busy taking and filling orders the whole time we were in. We ordered the meatballs app and a sausage pizza. While the crust is not made in house, the thin style we went with was super nice and flaky/crispy and the pizza sauce slightly sweet. All in all it was a good meal.
