This is an odd restaurant in that you must initially sit at the bar where you order and wait for your table/food. Once you are seated your food is waiting for you. I can't say I've ever seen a restaurant operate quite this way but it works for me. I've noticed some people complain in the reviews and I think it's unjustified. My only complaint is that they aren't open more often and that they are too darn popular on Fridays.

I went again tonight though, arriving at 7:30pm after hiking 15 miles on the Ice Age Trail, plus an extra one to get to the bar. It was empty with a female bartender. I made a joke as I sat down which she didn't even attempt to laugh at. This was a sign. After one drink she told me that she needs to close. She did allow me to chug a second drink while shutting off the lights. I understand they weren't busy but your listed hours are open til 10 and it's not even 8:00. Plus I just told you I walked all the way here. Definitely can understand why this place is empty on Mondays. I'll call ahead to make sure Don is working next time

The portions were generous for $10 and I really enjoyed my meal, along with a Spotted Cow and a sour brandy old fashioned. My son ordered appetizer chicken strips and fries. He said they were both delicious. The 4 others in our group ordered burgers and an assortment of apps. The burgers were said to be ok and the fried apps were all good, especially their beer battered onion rings. The waitress was friendly and attentive. The space in the dining room is basic as many bars of this kind are. The bar area was really cool and they have some arcade games for the kids by the bar. Worth a stop in for a drink, lunch, and friendly service!

This small town dive bar has been trying to improve its livelihood over the past few years, and I…read morecan say the expanded menu has definitely helped with that. I came in with a friend for lunch this past week, and I was excited to see a chicken parmesan sandwich on the menu that I could get with grilled chicken instead of crispy chicken. I thought the sandwich and fries were great! Just a note about the marinara sauce: it is chunky, so if that's something you're not a fan of, I'd recommend trying a different item.

My husband said the hamburger was good and really liked that they sliced the onions very thin. I will definitely order the chicken stack sandwich - grilled chicken with garlic flavoring and cheese on a broche bun with lettuce tomatoe and onion. We enjoyed our lunch on a chilly day. It was a little chilly inside, but we are in Wisconsin, and we like the cold . We are keeping this on our list to try the fish on friday. Give it a try. The prices were good too.
