We came here at 730 on a Sunday. Maybe a dozen people. We ordered burgers with fries and some mozzarella sticks. Noticed that the man at the grill was busy shaking dice and having a good time with 4 guys at the bar. 2 to go orders were picked up and I had my boyfriend go up and see if they started our food. He had not. We waited to 30 minutes and nothing. Very disappointed and upset. We paid for our Bloody Mary and a soda and left. Customer service was very poor tonight and nothing after 30 minutes. Nope. No thanks WN. I'll go somewhere else.

The painted window saying "Home of the Dirty Snowball" absolutely piqued my interest! LOL! Actually, it was that, plus the two giant nutcracker decorations out front that caught my eye. I'm a fan of (Christmas) holiday decorations, so I wanted to see what else they had, after spying some string lights through the window. Inside, it's like a wonderland of holiday cheer! Lights and ornaments and decorations everywhere! Sitting at the bar under the lights, I really felt like I'd discovered some secret bar under the Christmas tree! The staff were friendly, helpful, and quick with the libations! Kind of that "keep it real" attitude, but not in the rude way... in the honest and up front way! There is no food to speak of, save for a Chex-pub mix blend, but the drinks are why you want to visit! The famous Dirty Snowball is like a shake, but without ice cream, made with cocoa and related liqueur flavors (I can't remember what-all is in it, but it's GOOOOOOOD!). I highly recommend it! I also tried the Cleo's Trio, which is one part Dirty Snowball, one part Brandy Old Fashioned, and one part Suffering Bastard, I think? Not in the same glass! But, more like a flight. You get a little taste of Wisconsin or at least Appleton. Each drink is basically a full version, though, so you might need only one! I don't know what your favorite bar looks like, but if I lived in Appleton, this one would be mine. I would be in there at least once a week, if for no other reason the ambiance and the company. Great people, great drinks, and a legacy for holiday décor that I hope lives on forever!

There is a bar in the front room and there are 3 rooms total with machines to play. Pinball up front and center, just the way I like it. Service: Great daily drink and token specials. Our bartender was really awesome, and patient since I was a noob and it was my first time there. The only thing I can think of for improvement in this facility is hand sanitizer stations, one per room. Flu season is upon us and everyone in here is touching the machines. I had my trusty hand sanitizer in my purse so I was okay, but I think it'd be a nice addition to the place since they don't take up much room. Looking forward to coming back here.

I found McFleshman's Brewing Co. through Hoppassport while I was back in Appleton for my high…read moreschool reunion, and I'm glad I followed the recommendation. McFleshman's has a personality that immediately separates it from the cookie-cutter brewery experience. The taproom has a classic old-school pub feel, with beautiful woodwork, vintage details, artwork, a fantastic stained-glass backbar and plenty of little spaces to explore. The brewery's history and craftsmanship really show. The taproom incorporates old-growth Wisconsin oak, and the stained-glass backbar is reportedly more than 100 years old. We decided to start with a couple of beer flights so we could sample our way through the tap list before committing to full pours. That's always my preferred strategy when visiting a new brewery, and McFleshman's gave us plenty to explore. The beer selection reflects the brewery's focus on traditional German lagers and British/English-style ales, while also giving visitors some more contemporary options. But honestly, one of the biggest draws for me was the outdoor beer garden. This is the kind of patio where I could easily see myself spending an entire afternoon. The combination of picnic tables, greenery, string lights, hanging bicycles and the overall laid~back atmosphere gives it a very distinctive personality. Inside, the pub atmosphere continues with the woodwork, stained glass and cozy seating areas. It's the kind of place that feels like it has been around forever~even though McFleshman's itself opened in 2018. Our service experience was a little mixed. The beertender was somewhat standoffish & crunchy when we were asking questions, and the brewery had just opened when we visited. I didn't let one person's attitude define the entire establishment, especially because everything else about the experience was enjoyable. But hey--maybe we caught them before the first beer kicked in. Maybe she needs a team builder shot, 1st thing in the morning . And that's ultimately where I landed: Great beer selection. ‍Fantastic atmosphere. Seriously cool outdoor space. Loads of character. I'd absolutely return~especially for that patio. I could see McFleshman's being a fantastic brewery-crawl stop, beer~festival hangout, St. Patrick's Day destination or simply a place to post up with friends and spend an afternoon drinking good beer. Would return? ABSOLUTELY YES!!!.
