One of the managers took time to talk to us for a while and he was very friendly. We each ordered two drinks and one appetizer and everything was delicious!

Classic midwestern friendliness. The views were fantastic. All the boxes were checked but the food. When I saw the menu, I had a feeling, this place is going to do nothing great, because they have a touch of everything. We of course didn't eat everything, so can't say for sure, but the food we ordered was far from mind blowing. The prices and popularity would have you thinking you were about to have food that at least exceeds fast food quality, but that was not the case. I've had fast food chicken fingers (from places that focus on chicken) with much more flavor and texture. They do beer well. It is a brewery after all. But I would not return for the food.

The beautiful bar area was filled and they had reserved a table for us near the fireplace. Allie was our server and we will be back just to visit with her! She was super friendly, efficient, and kept checking back with us to replenish drinks and food as needed. The seafood bisque soup was piping hot and so flavorful. Two of us had the Black Forest sandwich which were overflowing with meat (ended up taking half home for later!) The Deluxe burger was juicy with mushrooms and onions, cooked to perfection, and the Chalice sauce was delicious. I should have taken photos of the food but to be honest we inhaled everything while we kept talking. Again Allie was a consummate professional--she made sure we never had to ask for a refill -- she was just there when we needed her. We will be back again!

The main issue was the OWNER of the bar was in there drunk as could be. Kept making smart remarks to me and then turning his head away like a scared little kid and laughing like he was funny. He kept telling me over and over he owns the bar to which I told him I don't care who knows the bar, but in a meaner way. He tried to get me to take a shot but I refused and he kept making dumb remarks and hiding by turning away. He then apologized when he could tell I was tired of his act. I paid and left and wouldn't go back in that bar unless it was to beat up the drunken bar owner and his little buddies..

They also have bar food and it's pretty good, I recommend the waffle fries with the buffalo seasoning on them. I prefer to come to the bar during the day on the weekends when it is less busy to avoid the college aged crowd. Our bartender, Jess was super friendly and fun, she definitely made our visit better!

Full bar and bartenders that are friendly and are good at giving suggestions on what to drink or try. We've also played a many dice and bar games with them for shots. Great place to be for Packer games and all sports. They usually have some specials for the games as well as daily/weekly specials in the kitchen. My favorite is when they do crab Rangoon pizza! The other option I always order when here is a variation of different wings that they make. They have a full pool table, a dart machine, and a nice side small patio outside. The bathrooms are very small and cramped, but usually pretty clean. Unlike many other dive bars in this town, this one everyone is and does feel welcome here with the friendly service and atmosphere of the regular customers.
