The menu was quite a bit more extensive than I expected with lots of offerings for any taste. I settled on the fried broccoli and cheese bites and a chicken parm sandwich. Both of them knocked it out of the park. More places need broccoli and cheese bites. These ROCKED. The chicken parm sandwich was basic in nature but is exactly what I wanted from it. The best part? The bits of burnt mozz really underneath the sandwich for an added crunch. The service was everything you could have asked for. Quick, friendly. You name it. Glad to have made the decision to stop here a few weeks ago, and would absolutely recommend to anybody in the area.

Was up checking out the college with my daughter and found this place on Yelp for lunch on a…read moreSaturday afternoon. It's a bar, but about as basic as bar can get. Napkins are paper-towels off the roll, when asked for additional napkins we were given a stack of cocktail napkins. Had to ask for silverware and the plastic glasses all smelled like bleach. Only one person appeared to be working both the bar and table area, service was a little bit on the slow side, but the gentleman was polite and accommodating. Cheese Curds were good, nothing spectacular and the quantity received was on the small side compared to what you might get at other establishments. They were out of tortillas so there were no wrap options. For a Saturday, not sure how they could run out already by lunch time. Sunday, dinner? Maybe??? I could understand, but going into a weekend? How is your kitchen not fully stocked? Main meals were hearty and good (burger & cheese stake), but again, nothing really special. All in all the food was nothing out of the ordinary and the place is just basic.

It's amazing, especially for a campus diner. My wife and I often eat here when visiting our…read moredaughter, who attends UWP, and we were quite impressed the overall experience. Each time we've dined, the food has been excellent, and even more importantly to my wife and me, there is a friendly nutritionalist on staff who specializes in allergies and keeps the students healthy and fed well. Our daughter has significant food allergies, and it is a great assurance to know that UW Platteville really has her safety prioritized while still maintaining an excellent and delicious menu. The atmosphere is really cool, too. It very different than the cafeteria style experience I had decades ago when I was in college, and even though they get you through the lines quite quickly, it feels much more like a restaurant experience than a college dining option.

I had heard good things about the Saloon from friends for years, but had never quite found the…read moreright time to go. Now I'm glad one of those friends suggested it last night. I was in a mood for a fish fry, so we wound our way up the Lancaster road to the sign pointing to Ellenboro, crossed the narrow bridge and pulled up right in front (a good sign that it wouldn't be too crowded). Up the stairs, through the foyer and into a cheerful, eclectic space that would be tight if there was a crowd, but there were plenty of tables open. They can probably seat around 50, if you include the seats at the bar. Our server came over right away, welcomed us and provided a menu that surprised me in that everything on it looked tempting. Honestly, since I was there for the fish, I only paid attention long enough to determine that this might be a place to bring the spousal unit next time. They had four choices for the fry - cod, catfish, blue gill and flounder (the last two are what we got). You get two sides and a roll with the dinner, one side with a basket. I had steak fries and hush puppies - both were just right. The flounder was good, but I'll give the cod a try next time. My friend's blue gill dinner was generous - looked like 5-6 pieces, while my basket had three good sized pieces (I ordered an extra side). Prices were very reasonable. The food came out fast, the music was low enough that we could hear each other without yelling, and the service was excellent. Honestly, the only minor quibbles were that there was too much food to leave room for dessert, and that it was a bit chilly sitting by the window! Definitely will put this into our rotation!

We love good tartar sauce on fries (I'm VERY particular on what we consider "good") and their tartar sauce was outstanding! A different Yelper mentioned coming for "brunch," but it quickly became clear that she meant she came before noon for lunch because it was not a brunch menu. We really enjoyed what we ate and liked the atmosphere even though a hipster bar vibe was not what we originally expected, because we thought it was a brunch place. I will definitely read such reviews more carefully in the future, but we had a fantastic experience, anyway.

Drinks: I ordered the bloody mary (as a bloody maria) and it was delicious, tons of flavor and a small kick. Food: My wrap had almost no chicken and the coleslaw didn't have much flavor. However the french fries that my partner ordered were fantastic, I would come here just to eat the fries. He also loved his burger super weird flavor combo but it was delicious. All in all the drink and his meal was amazing. If we are back in the area I'll try something else on the menu so hopefully I have the same great food experience.
