In town for business and found River Inn on Yelp. Nice ambience. Cozy and warm. My server was…read morewonderful. Ordered a grilled shrimp salad with balsamic dressing that was underpriced at $11. My Manhattan was perfect. Great place.

I'll get right to the point: This place is what dreams are made of. They tout the chicken, which is…read moreabsolutely delicious, but don't discount the burgers. Im not joking when I say they taste like unicorns and rainbows. And the service? Second to none. The bartenders are as spicy as the bloody marys. Shake-a-day? Yes! Gambling machines? Also yes. This is where your hole-in-the-wall Wisco bar dreams are made. Get the onion petals and a tap of Spotted Cow to start and enjoy the ride.

My first visit. Well start with the positive - The place is…read morefairly nice inside a family sports bar vibe. The beer selection is pretty vast with some gems. But our food was terribly slow nearly an hour waiting for chicken wings and kids Mac and cheese. It came out warm-ish like it had been sitting for a long time. The boneless wings were overcooked to a dry rubber like texture. These were FAR worse than a McDonadls chicken nugget. I'd have complained but didn't see our server again and after an hour wait didn't care anymore, I should have listened to my 6 year old and gone to the arches but I came here because I didn't want to eat crap

Wow! First day open after the 2026 remodel (July 2nd). They did an incredible job. Total reboot…read more Bigger bar, nicer patio with TVs, more TVs inside, more bar seating, they move the bathrooms and made them much larger in ADA compliant. Same great beer list and food. Great service. Even the entryway has been redesigned. Seriously, amazing remodel. Can't wait to come back.

Haven't been here in a couple years, no real reason why not but I can assure you I will absolutely…read morenot be coming back. You can tell it's a left leaning facility. News on, constant political talk... As I sit alone at the end of the bar an older woman with rainbow earrings approaches and asks about my tattoo. I'm no more than 5 words in and she's asking who I'm voting for. If I hadn't ordered food I'd have just left but there I was stuck to listening to gibberish BS about the election. Beer a bottle of shiner, hard to mess that up, food was ok, fries better than the chicken sandwich however very few fries were given my guess thinking back maybe 10. Bartenders were alright, kinda consumed with the regulars. I can't do constant political talk so this place is a 1 star no from me. Good luck to you with your visit.

This was a nice stop on our Cheese Curd Crawl. The service was friendly, and the whole restaurant…read morehad a pleasant vibe. There were even funny quotes spaced out along the walls. We ordered the cheese curds (as necessary) along with the pretzel braid. Both were good and hit the spot nicely.

Which happens but what I've never had happen before is the manager come out and basically tell us we were wrong and it was a piece of Swiss cheese. She never even seen the hair. So when we showed them the hair, they apologized and stressed that they would only comp SOME of the sandwich. I wasn't even looking to get any of the meal for free. We actually didn't even want the sandwich after that. But to have someone come out and tell us we were probably wrong and then to over stress that they weren't covering the WHOLE thing, just SOME of it was so completely bizarre. I guess the days of the customer always being right are long gone. I haven't been to Monks in a long time and it will be a while before we go back. Our server was absolutely fantastic though. Big thumbs up to Dawn

The ambiance is casual with lots of fun things to examine on the walls - some historic, some new. We started with the Brussels sprouts, loaded with bacon and Gouda cheese. These were a huge hit and we cleared the entire plate. I ordered the Sheely burger with truffle fries and definitely ate beyond capacity. The Mr. ordered the ribeye special and it came out medium rare just as he likes. He ate every bite and when he saw that you could buy a round for the staff for $10, proceeded to do so. He appreciates a perfect steak. Can't wait to come back and try some other items! *NOTE: CASH ONLY*

They were very attentive. The drinks were good. I had the Sheeley old-fashioned, made with Bulleit Rye, a fairly standard Wisconsin style old-fashioned. My ribeye was just a little overcooked and my wife smashed burger was just a little undercooked. The food overall was pretty good. I'll definitely go back. I can't believe I've never been there after all these years.
