I saw a lot of martinis and cocktails coming out of the bar. There are waitresses, but it looked like just 1 bartender. She was BUSY! Waitresses were just standing there while the 1 'tender was working her ass off. We sat at the bar and barely got service because she was so busy. I of course don't know how the place works, but it seems like someone could have helped her. We only stayed for 1 beer and left because we couldn't get any of the bartender's time. It would be a cool place to hang if maybe we sat at a table. (I felt out of place being in my Packer's gear.) I see they do live jazz music. That might be worth going back for someday.

There is an older jukebox available to play music, and the sound in that place was really great. They were closed during the pandemic I believe, but now they are open again. A week after we visited there someone vandalized the back or side of the building with graffiti, which is unfortunate! It's a swank place, and I hope that more people realize just how much fun it is to be there. The seats seem kind of retro and has a lot of big wide curves to it. I hope that the musty smell can get cleared out somehow because that's a little overwhelming, but I think it's just from being closed up for so long. We will definitely be back! Bummed I didn't take pictures, but I'll definitely update with pictures when we go back!

Elements of retro classic-ness mixed with modern touches make it really unique and quite inviting to my eyes! Killer large booths, and one beautiful long bar makes the bar the place to be.

I had a brew from the great selection and the bartender was super nice and told us about the place! Sounds like it might only be open for shows and weekends but If I lived here I I would come to hang out all the time! This is a cool bar amongst the coolest bars I have ever been in and I was here at 4 in the afternoon! I bet it gets really awesome at 10pm!

The bartender was nice and served us right away. We only stayed for two drinks and then continued our walk. The place is a little dark, but it seems like a good dive bar.

Seeing it is the closest place that serves alcohol I had to give it a try. I was surprised. On a week night, the place was full of patrons of all ages. There were 20 somethings (not college kids) drinking mixed drinks and bottles, some working stiffs drinking City Brew out of a can, and some of the die-hard old timers also drinking City Brew out of a can. I liked the place already. I sat next to a geezer which I immediately regretted but it would have been rude to move! He was a few drinks past polite discussion but he decided to give it a go anyway. Bourbon and coke for the hubby, Spotted Cow for me. The bartender had to give me a taste first since it hadn't been pulled all day (with all the cans of City Brew I guess I can see why). It was still good. More expensive than the other two places in the area at $5.50. The place is a dark, smokey, local watering hole. People go there to DRINK. And despite it's lack of any sort of charm and pathetic attempt at a "gator" theme, I really liked the place.

After bringing our food, we seriously never had anyone come back to check on us until they were back to collect plates of those who were done. Meantime I had what should have been a fabulous meal but as soon as I moved the onions and mushrooms around the steak, it was obvious they were perfectly placed to cover a large portion (I'm talking a 2-3") area of fat and gristle. There is no possible way the chef or kitchen staff who plated it, didn't see it! So because no one essentially came back to check on us, I had eaten the small amount that was edible and was waiting for anyone to check with us. So, when she did come she actually asked if I wanted a to-go container! I responded and she looked at it and get this, asked if she could get me a dessert, on the house. An $8 dessert on place of a $45 steak... Haven't been back since.

Born & raised in Wisconsin I was delighted to see that the local American Legion offered one. We were not disappointed!

The other side of this equation? Pull tabs are available. Food is standard bar food for the most part. Hamburgers, wings, cheese curds, etc. Available.

We enjoyed the House Made Focaccia, the Fried Cauliflower Romesco and the Beet & Feta Salad. They were well prepared and tasted very good. The Focaccia was fresh and chewy, the Cauliflower was cooked perfectly with a tangy sauce and was served warm. The beet salad was sweet and flavorful and served cold. For our entrees we ordered the Beer Battered Walleye and the Pan Seared Salmon. The walleye was light, crispy and flaky; I found it to be exceptional. The salmon was cooked perfectly and was moist with a smokey sauce. For dessert we enjoyed the Creme Brulee, it was delicious. The service was very good without being overdone. We enjoyed the meal and the ambience. It was a wonderful dining experience. We will be back!
