We ordered the cheese curds because that's what you do when you are in Wisconsin. Of course they were amazing. Service was prompt and excellent. This place has everything. Seems to be a venue for large gatherings, Had a bit of a sports bar vibe with the TV's. But it was nicer than a regular sports bar. Ordered a Brandy Old Fashioned which was strong; tasty and strong. One was enough. I saw some burgers go by to another table and that made me order one. Had the whiskey burger and it was amazing with the fries. I wish i lived closer. I would go here often. I understand they have drink mixing glasses and other fun things to do. This place is worth stopping for.

This is a beautiful large restaurant, bar and venue that offers so many activities and events. I met a girlfriend for dinner and live entertainment. Tattersall has an amazing array of products that they distill. They have a fabulous month of special drinks and food. The staff is delightful and so friendly. I ordered the meatloaf dinner and my girlfriend ordered the hamburger. Both meals were fresh and a lot of food! We stopped in the store that has all of their alcohol and lots of great merch. I chose a bottle of their delish vodka and their seasonal "Birkie whiskey". They have a ton of events-crafting, live music, cocktail classes and more! They also have a phenomenal app with over 400 drink recipes. So delish. Def recommend!!

When I asked the bartender if she wanted a card, for the tab? She responded w "cash only". Thank goodness I had gotten cash to tip the musician, otherwise I seldom carry cash. I then asked where the musician would play? She pointed to the front window area so I headed over. To my delighted surprise there was one standard height table in that front area nook w three chairs; perfect. Parking is easy as all four sides of Main St are marked for spaces and the East/west running streets also offer free parking. Thanks Johnnie's for the friendly service, absolutely delicious cocktails and fun atmosphere, this was my first visit but certainly not my last, cheers!

Pulled Pork Sandwich was inedible, mush with sour coleslaw on top. All of the food was barely warm- we did order a pizza, so they maybe waited for the pizza to be done and then brought all the food together(?)IDK. The wings we ordered were good, but not like they used to be. Nachos were sad, curds mediocre. The service was fine, but the food isn't worth the price. We talked this place up so much, but it seems it's going the same direction as all the other restaurants these days: severely low-quality food for super high prices

I entered the dining room off to the north and asked a staff where he would play? She pointed to the area by the host stand. As I began to make my way to the stand to wait to be seated I saw two women vacating a table so I asked them if they were leaving and if I could have their table? I was only there a short few minutes before the bartender came out to ask if I needed a drink or a menu? Also stated she would clean the table. I told her "I saw the wait to be seated sign but nobody was there". She said they do that so the servers don't get overwhelmed. There were a few cocktails that sounded absolutely delicious, but they'll have to wait for another day when I have room in my belly. I opted for the kids grilled chicken tenders, it was like a pounded out chicken breast cut in to strips, perfect enough for me. I like the decor...look up, some of the light fixtures are wagon wheels w lanterns hung from them. The area above the "gambling" corner has a car bumper and old Radio Flyer just below the ceiling, fun. There is a sign on the wall there that reads: Drinks 2-for-1 while gambling. If that's your jam! The acoustics were great for the musician! Parking Parking was easy w all four sides of Main Street offered free parking and the east/west running streets also offered free parking. Nutty Squirrel has a sign on the wall near the host stand that lists their daily Specials. My server was "sous-chef trying to earn some extra cash, Anthony". Let me tell you, as I asked a fellow who was bopping around all night "are you the manager? Sous-Chef Anthony wasn't good... he was freaking fabulous! I asked him for a sauce lid a bit ago and said don't you dare come back here in two minutes with a lid... I'm here all night!" Anthony replied "I'm not doing anything else at the moment." When he had brought out my food I asked "could you bring out silverware when you get a moment?" Anthony replied "I can do it now, I got you." He was so friendly and attentive, very much appreciated. Thanks Nutty Squirrel for a simply delightful evening! Delicious food ordered from and brought out by a friendly fellow in a comfortable and well lit environment for a reasonable price. Looking forward to my next visit when I can imbibe in a cocktail or maybe have the Burger of the Month! Cheers!

Their liquor list is HUGE--I was very impressed! If a person drinks alcohol, they are bound to find something on their extensive menu. The bartender was incredibly friendly as well. We ordered a pretzel to share, and it didn't take long to come out. It was piping hot, as was the cheese dip. The pretzel was soft and delicious, great with the cheese--though the dip was a bit runny, so we made certain to clean up any mess. I included a picture of the Girl Scout cookie pairing promo, though we didn't take part.

They were very small with only a couple of their own beers on tap. Fast forward to now and their space has more than doubled and they have 30 taps that are all of their own making. Only had the beers to drink here but the hard liquor selection is large and in charge. Very impressive looking bar. 16 choices on their food menu. I had the Chicken Bacon Ranch Kumpir tonight. Don't think I had ever had a Kumpir before. They are basically a Turkish loaded baked potato. Very good and very filling and reasonably priced. 4 stars and not 5 because I have not had any banger beers here. Decent to solid in that regard but nothing to write home about.

It was hot, sunny, there were flies and bees--yet we could only sit outside. I selected this place because of it's supposed atmosphere, beer & drink menus, and food. Since we weren't given, told about or offered beer and drink menus (in addition to being forced to sit outside after we asked to sit inside), that meant atmosphere and menus were negatives. My Mom and niece ordered the chicken, bacon, ranch wraps with fries and thought they were good. I ordered the fish & chips and upgraded my side to cheesy chive hash browns. The lime-radish slaw was dry and bland, the fish was fishy so I doused it with all the juice from my lemon slices that I could, but the hash browns were yummy. Our waitress was okay, but the bartender was the real star, making drinks, running inside to get our meals and deliver them, plus deliver ranch and ketchup later.

There is not a lot of parking outside but we were lucky enough to snag a spot. The social space is right there in the brewery, industrial in all its glory. Dogs are allowed and were there hanging out, behaving just fine. My husband ordered a beer flight as well as a chicken quesadilla from the separate Mexican food stand. Everything was great. As we are both from the Southwest, we can be, ahem, rather critical of Midwest takes on Mexican food, but the quesadilla was tasty and came with flavorful sauces. The brewery had a cooler with their beers in various formats, ready to go, and their menu also listed other non-beer options to drink.
