We went there on a Saturday night after the Fond du Lac brew fest. I had the jumbo shrimp with sautéed vegetables and garlic, mashed potatoes. For a bar and grill this food was amazing. Great service, good beer selection. Lots of seating, very modern clean bathrooms. Live music on Saturday night when we were there. This is my second time there and I'll definitely be back. read more

This was the only restaurant open in the whole town on a Thursday evening because of some snow and my fiancée and I were so blessed to find this gem! Service was absolutely fantastic and the food was outstanding! Just a cozy restaurant! Thank you so much for letting us dine with y'all! read more

Cool fun atmosphere, great food, and friendly service! The Bloody Mary drinks were yummy and loaded with a great selection of fixings. I would recommend to give it a try. Mahi mahi fish tacos were buzzing with all the flavors-from the blackened fish, to fresh limes and jalapeños. I will get these again. Hubby got the only burger on the menu and it has a nice flavor char coating on it to give it a great taste on a super soft and fresh roll. Bathroom was very cool and so clean you could eat off the floor. Cool atmosphere with metal art decor and a bonus game room upstairs. I should have taken pictures. Go check them out! read more

Food quality is excellent, served hot and flavorful. Ambiance is good when it's busy. I think it was the Old warehouse for Wagner's and The Main Exchange. Large wooden floor central dining area and some booths along the walls. I love their fried, battered fish dishes on Fridays, with potato pancakes. Their fried cheese blocks appetizer is unique and flavorful. They have great cocktails. Very good food entrees from a talented chef. read more

Our first visit to Brick House. Our hostess immediately seated us at our table and within a short time our server arrived. We loved the industrial / warehouse atmosphere with the 12-foot high tin ceilings. The message on the menu encouraged us to take a self-guided tour of the building but we never left the dining area. There are booths around the perimeter and tables in the center of the dining room. Most of the tables were filled yet the noise level was very comfortable and we could easily hold a conversation. The Brick House menu is not extensive but I'm sure there's something to please everyone's palette. We prefer a smaller menu where entrees are prepared well. The appatizer of white cheddar bricks was okay but the ranch dipping sauce was tasty. There was a short but comfortable wait for our entrees. We ordered Grown Up Mac & Cheese and a serving of Poor Man's Lobster with a side of potato pancakes. Both entrees were plated well, served hot and delicious. Brick House. Not sure why it took us so long to find you but I'm sure we'll be back. read more

Everything about this restaurant was amazing. Me and my family came here 2 times. Definitely enjoyed it and will be back.

Have been here a few times and have never had a bad experience. Staff is extremely accommodating and friendly. The atmosphere is nice too never too crowded. Overall a really great place for a date or even a group of friends. read more

Great food and service. Reasonable price for the quality of food. Fun upstairs games and lots of beer options.

It is rlly good I rlly like all there food it all taste rlly good and the service is impeccable and the setting is rlly good

Beautiful space! Always enjoyed the Main Exchange in my hometown so had to check out the Brick House when back in FDL for a visit. Really well done interior, so much more light and open. Had great service by bartender Zach and waitress Cortney. The wait for food was a bit long. Food was tasty. I had the Veg Head-made into a wrap. It was good and homemade coleslaw as a side was excellent. Husband had a sirloin steak, truffle mashed potatoes and green beans. He really enjoyed it-above average. Other dining companion had steak Mac and cheese. Very filling. Good wine selection and reasonably priced. I would recommend and definitely go back! read more

Unexpected menu for a bar type establishment. And in a good way! Think bar classics with a refreshing twist including vegetarian options. It was difficult to know if this place was open from the street but once we entered, it was buzzing with chatter and happy patrons. We waited a few minutes to be seated and noticed many patrons walking about without masks without consequence. Something to be prepared for since we live in a city where masks are mandated. The service was fine. Waitress was friendly and efficient. We had a number of appetizer options which caught our eye and we decided on the fried cheese bricks. These are not cheese curds (re: no cheese pull here). But the cheese was light and airy and all around tasty. There are also several great beer options from breweries out of Oshkosh - many we had not tried before. For the main course, I went with the Roasted Beef & Goat Cheese Salad. I was immediately impressed with the presentation - it was served on a long dish and loaded with beets and cheese. This one knocked it out of the park. Simple, delicious, not too heavy & done right. My boyfriend ordered the Blackberry - Chipotle Chicken. He was apprehensive about the fruit combo but ended up loving this dish and even has plans to try to whip up his own version of the blackberry chipotle sauce during an upcoming bbq. The only less than stellar part of his meal was the veggies - these looked like they came out of microwaveable bag and the potatoes (way to salty). I regret not getting a piece of the brick layer cake. Certainly going to have to make a trip back just for a slice the next time we are in the area. read more

New restaurant in Fondy. This is our second time here. Both times, we have enjoyed our meals, service and overall experience. Yes, they have a few kinks to work out (waiter/waitress expediency, menu knowledge). Brickhouse will get there. Our first try was in a Friday night. When in WI what do you eat on Friday's,? Fish! I had their Perch plate, fantastic. Our group also ordered a number of appetizers, all were flavorful, no complaints. I apologize for not listing them....I didn't order, just ate! One additional bonus: Brickhouse has an upstairs bar and game room. Grab a dessert, head upstairs and play some hockey, skeeball, darts etc. Enjoy! read more

I was in the area for work and looking for a spot to try for lunch. I'm so glad I picked Brick House. It had such a cool laid back vibe and the decor was so much more than the photos on Yelp portrayed. I had the wings and cheese bricks. They were both delicious. Hope to make it back to the area and stop in again. read more

I was here tonight for the first time. Visually the place is gorgeous. It suffers from any place with high ceilings (super loud) but overall it's very aesthetically pleasing. The food. I had a Cubano which was excellent. Good flavor without being too salty. The portion was perfect for me (I like big portions) but might be too big for normal people. The potato flats were seasoned well. I also had a steak and potato soup which was delicious. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The service from the kitchen was a little slow but they were fairly busy and our server kept communicating with us on the progress so I never felt forgotten. Over all for my first time I am very pleased. I saw a number of things I'd like to try on the menu so I definitely will be back (and may updates this review if needed). Definitely a good addition to Fond du Lac. read more

Brick House - Smoked pork cubano - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Fond du Lac, Wisconsin

Wear a tank top and ask for a table upstairs. Or wear your snowmobile suit and ask for a table down stairs! After making a reservation and being told about our 1.5 hour wait for a table, we made our way upstairs. We found a large empty room with a few pool tables and arcade games. A great place, but nowhere to sit or even set our drink down. We ended up putting things on the floor to shoot some pool while waiting for our table. Shawn at the hostess desk made it sound like it could take MUCH longer than the 1.5 hours the girl said. It ended up being less than an hour. Which we were happy about. Our buzzer went off and we went downstairs. We were seated at a table in a large room with approx 30 tables/booths. I know we live in WI, and yes it's cold. But every time someone walked in or out a large gust of cold chilled the room. Everyone was talking about it. Some people yelled "close the door" when people held it open for others. It made our dining experience terrible. It was painfully cold in there and think if they can find a way to help that, I would return. The steak I ordered was "meh" overly seasoned, I drank 2 glazed of water along side the garlic mashed potatoes. I was chugging water all night. My husband loved the blueberry chipotle goat cheese chicken and a friend enjoyed his burger. Another friend was disappointed in the fish fry. I also found it to be a little louder than I like. I would try this place again, when the weather is better. read more

The atmosphere is awesome. Also has outdoor seating during the warm weather. The Poke is a must to try, it is one of the most delicious I have ever had! The owner is very friendly, and hard-working. And the waiters,and waitresses have been a great service read more

It's nearly the best for me to walk and it is comfortable when the weather is nice. A good place to meet Business friends.

The food was good esp the fish fry on Fridays and the goat cheese beet salad; the service was slightly longer than most , but there's plenty of cocktails in this unique and quaint inside this brick bldg. The price was reasonable as well. read more

First off, excellent job on the remodel. The style mixes the old and new well and is very refreshing for the FDL area. We came with a reservation and got there early to have a drink beforehand. Despite this, we waited to be seated 1.5 hours beyond our reservation time. When we got to our table we had about 4 different people waiting on us - this made for worse service. Drinks were missed, condiments were brought twice, etc. While everyone was friendly, it is too easy to confuse things that way. Menu is great, several things that I would try on the list. When the food came, the taste/quality/quantity was right .. but half of it was cold. It also took an hour to get the entrees. Time for the bill, pricing is fair .. but our bills were incorrect, more time waiting for corrections. One thing I didn't get was that a manager came around, and instead of maybe comping a drink or appetizer, she tried to upsell on purchasing a bottle of wine? A free dessert or acknowledgment of the situation can go a long way. I'm not saying I wouldn't come again, the food was good and the restaurant has potential. They just absolutely need to work out the service kinks before losing business. read more

We went on a Friday evening for their fish fry and it was delicious! The waitress we had was so friendly and efficient. I will be back to eat again soon. The work they've done on the interior is awesome. The clock behind the bar is the coolest thing I've seen. I give this restaurant 5 big stars. read more

Overall great experience at Brick House. Servers are still "figuring it out" but I attribute that to inexperience but don't let that deter you. Great atmosphere here and food was really good. My wife had the salmon and I had the ribeye. Also very robust beer menu! read more

Guys! Do yourselves a favor and get to the Brick House, stat! This place is great! Lovely ambiance, friendly staff, and most importantly - awesome food! We got the poke nachos as an appetizer, and they were really good. The nachos were crispy wantons, and for all you uncultured swine out there, poke (pronounced po-kay), is like a sushi salad, and it was real tasty. I got the fish fry and my wife got the ahi tuna. Both were very good. And the seasonal vegetables were very colorful and fresh (which certainly can't be said of every restaurant in town *cough Sebastian's cough*). Our server Makita was very friendly and helpful. To make a long story short, go eat here and have a great time! You will love it. read more

Came to Brick House FINALLY, for the first time today. We ordered wings, Korean BBQ wraps, and Grown up Mac n Cheese. Everything tasted SO good and we finished it all (besides a few wings, which we brought home). Afterward, we took the kids upstairs to play games! In general, a totally enjoyable experience. Food was excellent, service was great, and besides our trip upstairs to the game room, we were finished dining within an hour. We will definitely be back! read more

Best bar fon Du lac has to offer !!!! Food was amazing you can't go wrong! The owner is a sweet pea and makes the best drinks in Wisconsin! And good beer on tap read more

Food was AMAZING. I had the loaded grilled cheese which was great and my mom had the blackberry chipotle chicken which was phenomenal. Bartenders clay and Zach were very friendly and personable. The upstairs has lots of games such as pool and darts to play on nights out. Would definitely come back! read more

This place is amazing!! The food was EXCELLENT!! And the inside you'd never know it's the old Main Exchange!! The people are super kind & friendly. Very reasonable pricing!! I can't say enough great things about this place!! read more

Beautiful building. Waited 15 minutes until we asked where our server was and then a server came to our table to take drink orders. We had the cheese bricks, very good but the seasoning used, possibly chives, very overwhelming, but lots of cheese! I had the lettuce Korean BBQ wraps and they were okay, I was not fond of the BBQ, it is a little spicy and teriyaki like. Also had the Mac and cheese, which was great, we added steak which was well done, wish there was options on the steak temperatures. We also had a Bloody Mary, it was TERRIBLE. I have never had such a sour bitter and bland Bloody Mary. I hope this place figures it out because they have potential! Nice staff but they just don't look to be communicating by all the aimless wandering. read more

Stopped in to have a few drinks with some friends. Didn't have any happy hour/drink specials/ double bubble. Also pricey drinks. The owner was the one waiting on us and she came off very rude. read more

Waited 45 minutes, decided to sit and wait with the drinks we ordered at the bar, the bar tender Jesse was awesome! Then we asked for menus so we would know what to order when we were actually seated and served, and while looking them over the hostess came by and told us it would still be awhile because she didn't want to overwhelm the waitress, then she added- "this isn't how a restaurant works. You can't just seat yourself and ask for menus". That was completely not our intention, there was just no where else to stand. So we left. She said goodbye on our way out. I've never been treated so rudely anywhere, except maybe fast food restaurants. Unfortunately this place was so slow I would have to say BK is better. Be nice to people who want to give you money so you can stay in business! read more

I've been to this place many times before this experience and have never had a problem until now. Our waitress was extremely rude, upset when I asked a question about a menu item, and threw it in my face when I didn't like something how I ordered it. I didn't ask for anything different just didn't eat my food. My water sat empty for my whole visit. You can just feel the bad attitude, I'm very understanding times are tough but this was not a great experience. read more

First visit to Brickhouse. Very nice renovation of the old Main Exchange. Seems like their bartenders need a bit more training. My Brandy Old Fashioned came with two whole cherries, an orange wedge, and a full sugar cube. Guess the concept of muddling was missed. I also noticed that some bartenders were pouring tall, even without people asking. The meal was a story of good and bad. My wife had garlic grilled shrimp. They were very flavorful and perfectly cooked. She also enjoyed the mashed potatoes. Saturday night's special was prime rib. While mine was a wonderfully cooked medium, it was very dry and lacking seasoning. The au jus was flavorless, and added little to the meal. The best part was the potato planks. They were a marvelously thin and crispy alternative to french fries. The mixed vegetables were a bit mushy and not very warm. Service was satisfactory, even with our server seemingly stretched a bit thin. We waited a bit after being seated, but it was ok since we had drinks from the bar. All in all, we will probably give the Brickhouse another chance. Noise is an issue, so if you are looking for a place to have a conversation, this may not be the place. read more

It always boggles my mind a bit when people are so quick to write a terrible review for a brand new restaurant. I'd rather this business work out their kinks than have yet another vacant building downtown. Please ignore those unfavorable reviews and try this place out. The remodel is beautiful, the staff was incredibly friendly, our wait time was reasonable and expected, and all of our food was absolutely delicious. I'd say Brick House is a great addition to the FDL area, especially since there aren't many phenomenal restaurants around here to begin with. Also, our waitress, Makita, was very sweet and funny. An overall wonderful dining experience. We will be back for sure. read more

On the first visit to Brick House shortly after it's opening, we were told by the owner upon check-in that half of their staff called in sick. They were only seating people downstairs to eat, but we were told that we could check out the upstairs and sit at the bar. We were seated after waiting about a half hour. The food was good, but the service was slow. We decided that we would give the place another chance. Went last night for my husband's birthday. We were seated right away because they were not busy. Ordered a cheeseburger. How hard is it to make a cheeseburger? It was a drippy, greasy mess. The pretzel bun was mushy and soaked. I only ate half because I was hungry. The menu is pretty limited, and the food service is slow. I will not be returning. read more

During my first visit I had an excellent and knowledgeable server, Ryan. He was very pleasant and knew the menu and the food well. The place is gorgeous. It was a bit chilly/drafty but I came in during a slow time so I feel that if there were more patrons the temp would have been very comfortable. The food! YUM!!! Quick service and excellent food. I could only eat about half of my sandwich bc it was so big (and I wanted to leave room for dessert). The in house cole slaw was legit worth its own spot on the menu. Just saying. The dessert was fresh and fabulous. I will not only be back but I will bring my friends!!! Excellent addition to Fond du lac! read more

The food was good and the atmosphere is cool. I was a little disappointed that they don't have any specialty drinks, but I was told by our waitress that they'll have some in the near future. Service was a little slow, but it WAS a Friday night, so I understand. read more

The remodel is awesome. Loved the atmosphere and our waitress was attentive and friendly. With that said, the drink menu and food are average. My friend was given the wrong salad and our waitress was told by the owner that she didn't want to eat the cost of a new one so my friend would have to order the correct one. That wasn't very impressive. read more

Stopped in with my wife to check out the relatively new place. Must say we were unimpressed. Started out by the hostess saying it'll be a few minutes for a table when a quick scan of the dining room showed 4 to 5 tables empty. Extremely slow service from the kitchen. Once we were seated ordered an appetizer. Half hour later the app showed up. Another half hour to 45 minutes later our order finally showed up. My $12 burger that I waited an hour for was over cooked and marginal at best. Wife did enjoy her cuban sandwich. Waitress "Brey" was extremely nice and friendly, she tried to do all that she could. But judging by other tables waiting for food we weren't the only. Not a good first impression, will not hurry back if at all. To many other good choices. read more

Don't recommend at this time. Maybe with some experience under their belts, it has room for improvement. Went super early on a Saturday evening. Dining area about 1/2 filled. Waited 1.5 hours. Then finally got to a table upstairs. Service was slow. Another 1.5 hours to get food, which was marginal at best. Chix was so dry it couldn't be chewed. Server messed up the bill--hence even more time wasted. read more
