Bartender sucked Short fat guy with a beard. Stood in fronted him for 15 mins while he played with plastic cups. Asked him twice if they were still serving as he just ignored us at 8 pm Sunday the 27 of may. Left. read more

Went there for lunch with my son and his family on a Saturday afternoon, the bar and the restaurant were not real busy. Our server was a train wreck, she could not answer any questions about menu items, took forever to bring our beverages and when it was pointed out that some of the items that were supposed to be on the burger it was like pulling teeth to get it grudgingly rectified. Overall not a great experience. read more

This is the worst review I have ever had to leave a business and I do not recommend this bar. We ordered two wraps and two beers, our total ended up being $40. My bud light was skunky, and my husbands spotted cow was $6. We ordered two Philly wraps with pepper jack cheese instead of Swiss and upgraded one to have onion rings instead of fries. It took 40 minutes to get our food. Our wraps ended up not having ANY cheese and had steak in them instead of chicken?? No big deal, we like steak and thought maybe we read the menu wrong. We get our bill and there's two, $2 up charges for steak that we never ordered. Also, they sent out our wraps with fries on both plates so we had to wait for our onion rings. The food had absolutely no flavor and the service wasn't good either. Let's not forget to mention how dirty and unkept the building is. They boast about being the oldest bar in town so you'd think historical and well-kept. Ha, no. The amount of dirt and dust in there is unreal. By far the dirtiest bathrooms I've ever used, my bathroom door didn't even lock. There's a difference between being the oldest bar in Hudson vs. just being the oldest dump in town. We will not be back. read more

Used to love this place, stopped in and ordered a beer at 2:55 . Went outside to feed the meter, came inside and found out happy hour was at 3. The bartender didnt tell me and wouldn't discount the beer. Didnt drink a sip till 305...seriously!? read more

I've been a steady customer of Dicks since 1998. Todays visit for lunch was extremely disappointing. The menu has been shortened to the point of no reasonable choices. The only thing more disappointing than the menu was the service we received today. Hate to do it, but Dicks is scrubbed! Too many good places to eat in Hudson!!! read more

Dick's Bar is your standard small town bar. Food is ok--not wonderful. When we were there the fryer was out of order so no french fries--or fried food in general. I would think for bar food this would be a serious issue. Bar has a good if limited beer selection and a bit of a funky vibe. The patio looked great and we will most likely come back at some point this summer. read more

Love this place, good food and drink and the live music is great.

Dick's is a home away from for many, including myself and many of my friends. The atmosphere is energetic and lively. The staff does a great job and making our stop in is fun and enjoyable. I've seen all types go to this place. Everything from boaters to bikers and families to bachelorette parties. Dick's has something for everyone! read more

Dick's Bar & Grill - They have some kick ass hoodies and lots of other appearl too! Think I even saw some nice golf shirts! - Dive Bars Near Me - Hudson, Wisconsin

See all

I love the food here! Their new Prime Rib Sandwich is one of the best sandwiches in the St Croix Valley! Cheese Curds are amazing as well, and of course you can't beat their breakfast! Love the atmosphere and staff they make this place great! read more

If zero or negative stars were an option that's what I would rate this bar. First time in Hudson, bar hopping and went here after it being recommended. First had to pay a $1.00 "cover charge". Not really sure why since other much nicer bars are FREE and didn't see a band or DJ that was worth the fee. Lost a dollar in a machine playing a game. Asked bartender for $ back and got lip; this bartender shouldn't work in the service industry. Extremely rude. If you're looking for a bar to waste money with awful service. Save your dollars as this is the place to go. read more

I want to start off by saying that this place gets 5 stars because if is as good as it gets in Hudson, Wisconsin. Hudson, Wisconsin was great! In most of the surrounding towns and residential areas around the St. Croix river, the streets do not even have any lights in them, at all. No street lights, no traffic lights, just darkness (at night). The best thing about Wisconsin is that alcohol there is so cheap! It is cheaper to get completely wasted than to drink good, clean water. "With $20 you can see a movie and go to the hospital for alcohol poisoning" was a common slogan from the locals. We actually met some locals turned friends at Dick's Bar one night who lived in a cornfield. Dicks bar has drink and food specials every day of the week. The bars close at two but serve very large drinks at very cheap prices. Beers were 2 pints for $3 of some really nice and tasty beer. They don't even use 1 ounce shot glasses for liquer and all "shots" are either 3 or 5 dollars for the top shelf stuff like Glenlevit 12. All in all it was a lot of fun, a ton of drinking, and everyone we met was very nice. One afternoon Dicks had $1.75 blood Mary and mojito drinks in large pint glasses. The first night we arrived there it was the "$3.00 for two pints of any of their drought beer" day. The beer and drink selection was great! 4 out of 5 beers were local and/or craft brew. They didn't even serve the popular Miami Florida beers on tap. The shot glass was not a shot glass but instead a whiskys cup. In fact, they didn't even serve any shots in 1 ounce shot glasses at all as I mentioned. The bartenders never measure their liqueur, they simply fill the cup. Terry the bartender once said to me from behind the bar, "These guys don't even care if the food is burnt but they demand their drinks to be strong!" and I believe it! Another great thing about Dick's Bar is the live bands who play several times a week. On one night it was this duo. Lead singer on Djembe and backup singer on guitar. Talented as heck they were. It was some of the best "local" two-man cover group I have ever heard. Another night there was this guy who says he played with Dio in 1985. He was the band before Twisted Sister which came on before Dio. As unbelievable as that sounds, he was tearing it up on the guitar. Face melting jams, and I knew everyone one! He even played a Satriani piece! Pretty impressive musician, he had a headset microphone, and a PA system set up as a karaoke. The guitar and vocals was all him, background came from recorded songs. Everyone in Wisconsin that I met has a completely different accent from down here in Miami, Fl. Locals express themselves with all kinds of "You betchas!" and "Oh yah!" and "Oh for pete!" and "Oofta!". They elongate their vowels, most noticeably their "O's". So to me it was funny but grew on me quickly. For food, Cheddar cheese curds are a really big thing there. Cheese is a big part of the Wisconsin lifestyle. If you utter the words "Fried Cheese Curds" people around you will become hysterical. My brother Rony M. even brought back three bags of cheese curds to Miami, if you can believe that. I am the "Duke" of Dick's Bar read more

Stopped here for lunch. Cheese curds were awesome! Had the western burger and fries- fries are homemade and so good! Burger was good. My daughter had chicken strips and inhaled them. My mom had the Ruben and it was huge and she said it was good. Definitely recommend! read more

A really nice atmosphere full of good food and nice people. A great stop for any occasion!

Went for the fish fry last night. There was a short wait but sat in the restaurant side, a little more quiet. Excellent fish, tasted like never frozen and just a light batter. The fries are cut at the restaurant and you could tell with the first bite they were homemade. Excellent meal would recommend And go back. read more

I come here more then once a week and I love this place. The staff are nice and attentive the food is good not great but good. It can get expensive but some.dishes are fan"freeking"tastic The atmosphere is the full Wisconsin bar experience and they always have specials. read more

Nate is my man. He is a fantastic bartender with an awesome pour and a great attitude. Plus his beard is on point.

We come here for the Bavarian Pretzel Sticks. Similar to bread sticks, and when dipped in their melted butter and melted cheese, is one of the best appetizers around. read more

Been going to Dicks for 10 years - and I understand it's 'old' and a 'bar' but (I'm guessing you knew the 'but' was coming) it looks old and out of date (not in a good way - to me at least). It's not cheap to eat there either. 2nd Street/old Hudson is becoming the place to go for many people across the river or on this side of the river (try finding a place to eat without a hour wait on a Friday or Saturday - except for Dicks). In a 'nutshell', 'I'm saying they are falling behind. Hopefully, they will 'move forward' before it's too late. read more

Dick's bar has the greatest bartenders,your empty drink will not touch the bar longer than 30 seconds!!! Great aps and great Wisconsin prices. read more

Walked in after a dinner cruise and 2 people sitting at the bar turned to us and said $1 cover charge...both in matching shirts that resembled softball uniforms. We thought they were kidding so we walked up to the bar to buy drinks and then got kicked out because we didn't take the softball team looking sitting at the bar pair seriously. We were happy to give them business. That was stupid ridiculous. I would reccomend actual bouncers and an actual cover charge if they are gonna pull that kind of crap. read more

this restaurant/bar used to be the place to go in HUDSON .. walked into the bar door by the popcorn area/ and it smelled so bad.. like stinky fish and garbage.. we left that area as it smelled so staled/ bad and ate in the other room. I don't know if there is a change in cooks.. but the food was not nearly as good as it used to be.. cold French fries... and bloody mary didn't taste fresh as it used to . our family dined there when FRED was there.. and so sorry to see things have gone down hill from there.. the bathrooms were dirty.. no toilet paper in my stall -- and no OPEN sign in the window.. don't know if there is a management change to see these changes.. it certainly is not what it used to be. read more

We live in Hudson and come here often. The service is great, wait staff warm, friendly and attentive, food is good and prices reasonable. Highly recommended comfort food and drink. read more

Two recent meals here were so pleasant that I'm bumping my rating to 4 stars. Breakfast--always a strong suit--was improved by the $1.75 bloody marys and a very capable, polite server. When we stopped by for dinner last night, we were impressed by the friendly host and a different, but equally capable and polite server. Food was tasty on both visits--nothing fancy, but properly prepared and portioned. I'm also pleased that Dick's has joined the ranks of the saloons offering Spotted Cow. Moo! read more

Ryan took such good care of us. This place is amazing. Margaritas Orange peel....delicious

Food and atmosphere were just what we expected for a "dive bar". Service was good. Breakfast and bloodies was our game and Dicks delivered. The bloodies did not meet our expectations, otherwise this review would have 5 stars. Definitely will be back. read more

On a recent Monday when the first choice for a place to have lunch at was closed (because it was Monday), we went to the old standard bar. We sat in the far back area, the only customers in that area and tried having a conversation over the very loud (modern "country") music being played. A little while later, the loud music was then accompanied by some more loud music (Queen, this time - my favorite) coming from another part of the establishment. It quickly became very confusing to my poor brain. I tried not paying attention the the loud overhead country music to just listen to the loud Queen coming from another room, but all in all, it all became jumbled up in my head. It was like trying to listen and pay attention to two different conversations going on: I get nothing out of either one. We decided to share a large plate of nachos and to also have a cup of chili. The chili came with two packets of saltine crackers - standard. The plate of nachos was heaped full. We ate most of them and opted to leave the leftovers there since they were nothing remarkable. read more

Headed over to Hudson to meet someone for breakfast. Popped open Yelp and Dicks popped up. Reviews were decent so with ought we would give it a shot. Sat down at the bar and the tender was really talkative and obviously a Packer fan. Not to hold that against him he made some recommendations which turned out to be great. Bacon was a little thin for my liking but the rest of the breakfast was solid. He then began talking about how some of their food is farm fresh and the owner is moving towards organic which was interesting because this is nothing more than a townie bar. None the less well worth the stop. I'm not giving it a 5 because the Bloody Mary's were below average. read more

Excellent chicken wings with a really nice Teryaki green onion sauce--crisp wings, well cooked, and consistent! A decent bleu cheese sauce wth crisp celery on the order--excellent. The bartenders are friendly, as well as attentive, and have reasonable prices and a great selection of beer. Definitely worth the drive; cozy, and entertaining read more

Pretty good food. Very wild Friday /Saturday nights In the bar.

Great food and service. My husband and i were told to try this place by a customer, and we weren't disappointed. The atmosphere was upbeat. The service was excellent and we loved the burgers!! We will be back next year!! read more

Breakfast was great. Our server, Lauren, made it seem like any request was an inconvenience.

Was there yesterday to watch the game. The place was real busy but the service was great! Never had a wait. Very friendly. Wanted to hang out there all night. The food was ok. The wanted to charge $2 extra for different wing sauce. All in all, have a great time and will be back read more

Definitely not my go to spot, but I'll go if my friends want to with the condition that they pay my cover charge haha. Bar tenders are good but not super friendly. Used to go here for breakfast all the time but it's just changed too much over the past year. I still find it funny that my parents met here back in the 80's read more

Well we went to Dicks Bar because our first two had waiting times of 35 minutes to an hour. Not going to happen. So i looked down the hill and saw Dicks. A co-worker had eaten there recently and said it was pretty good so we thought we would give it a try. The decor(?) is unique but that is ok with us. I don't want a coporate clone restaurant feel. The staff was very friendly and helpful and got us seated at a nice table by the window. Our drinks came promptly and correct. (Note: non-Wisconsin natives, like most bars in Cheeseland, Dicks puts an ample pour in their drinks.) The menu is not just bar food as some other reviews have stated. They have walleye,prime rib, steaks etc. along with burgers, wraps and salads. We were in a hurry and just ordered burgers and fries. I had the Jack Daniels burger and my wife had the western burger. The western burger was pretty standard. Basically a bacon cheese with onion rings and bbq sauce. .The Jack burger was ham, mushrooms, asiago cheese and Dick's Jack Daniels sauce. My wife and I agreed it was not the best burger we ever had but it was definitely in the top ten. So, why only three stars? It was the fries. They hand cut their fries but they obviously do not double fry them. So instead of crispy they are a little soggy but still tasty. Will we go back/ You betcha! read more

Good cheap Bloody Mary breakfast. Typical greasy spoon. Service was great.

Flew into Hudson for the funeral of my best friends dad a few years ago, after the loss of my brother only a week before... had some time to kill and found Dicks.. walked in in the morning after a exhausting few days, had a great breakfast and more than one bloody mary, with a beer chaser, something we don't see in Colorado... over the course of the week Dicks kinda became our spot... went in on a Saturday night after another long day and meet the locals... the staff, the locals, the drinks, the whole vibe was just what we needed.... Thank you Dicks and the great people of Hudson.. miss you. Tony from Littleton Colorado read more

This my favorite Bar in Hudson. The Staff and service are excellent. The bartenders are top notch and very friendly. The new owners are awesome. Always have a great time. read more

Great service and fun atmosphere! They always have some fun games and activities going on. Good people work here and good people eat/drink here. If a mistake is made (which is rare) they are quick to fix it and turn it around. read more

I give this bar a single star because the bar is a shithole, the locals smell funny, the bartenders are moody, and my friend that I brought with me called me a "flat faced asian". This place brings the worst of the worst and the worst out of you. By the time I left, I was yelling at pedestrians. I don't like this place and I don't like who I became because of it. I'll never be the same. *UPDATE* They just took my table. As in the one that I was sitting at. That's how they treat the minorities here. By the way, their breakfast hash Is bullshit. read more

This is one of the most fun places I have found, great hang out, friendly staff and very cool bar. Awesome food, and great daily specials. A must go to place. read more
