    Been to this and the other Water Street locations over the years. Had a good experience all around. I always feel Water Street has okay beer but better food. It's a nice big open location in Grafton. Plenty of seating. Staff is always friendly. Had a chicken sandwich and a beer. All in all, a dependable place to get a good meal. I could take or leave their beer but it's by no means bad either. There's just better beer in and around the Milwaukee area.

    Beef brisket in the quesadilla

    I needed to stay in the Germantown / Menomonee Falls area around dinner time and specifically wanted to stop somewhere with cheese curds as it was National Cheese Curd Day. Water Street Pub & Grill had both cheese curds and some daily specials I was interested in, so that ended up being my choice. In addition to cheese curds I got eight wings and a quesadilla. The cheese curds ended up being the cornmeal breaded kind that I don't care for. They were greasy and weren't very crunchy. Wings are $0.99 each on Tuesdays (as of 10/15/2024). They aren't listed on their normal menu, so I had to ask what the sauce/rub choices they had. There weren't any rub options, but for sauces there was mild, hot, bourbon BBQ, teriyaki, and garlic parmesan. I went with bourbon BBQ. The bourbon BBQ sauce was strong, which is great if you like the taste of bourbon, and the wings were well sized. The wings were fried, but not breaded, which feels like a crucial step if you're going to fry wings. If you're not going to bread them, it would be nice if they were grilled instead. Quesadillas are 20% off on Tuesdays (again as of 10/15/2024). I ordered one with corned beef inside, but it arrived to my table with beef brisket inside instead. I didn't feel like mentioning the mistake since beef brisket is good too, so I rolled with it. The quesadilla was the clear winner of the food options I tried with good flavor and a good amount of brisket in it. If I come back, I'd consider getting the quesadilla again.

    The food was GREAT! We went for the fish fry and it was absolutely delicious! Their clam chowder is like nothing I've had before but wow was it AMAZING! We brought our dog and hung out on the front porch where everyone came to say hi.

    Just ok. We got there on a Friday night at 4 and their "dining room" was 1 very large group. 1 menu for everyone in the bar to share because the large party was using all of them. It was shift change. It was just a cluster. Waitress/bar tender stood at hostess stand and texted while the kitchen rang the bell alerting food was ready to run. My cod & fries were cold but my husband's was hot. Frustrating. Music was of great selection, though!

    This place is great!…read more I felt very welcomed, people were friendly and staff is awesome. Tall boys are cheap AF. I don't think there is any food but it's a great little place.

    We've tried multiple times to like this place. They have $2 tall boys but that's about it. A few…read moreof the bartenders that I've met are nice but only talk to the locals..If you are new to town they don't really engage in any conversation with you. On one of our visits the guy behind the bar was so loud and basically stood back there and drank lite the whole time. Then a local (I'm assuming) said something to the bartender and he shouted back "F**k you old man"! I asked someone at the bar does the owner know that his employee uses that kind of language? Much to my surprise he told me that the bartender is the owner! Are you kidding me? If you are visiting from out of town or new to town there are a lot better places to go that they don't use that kind of language. Not that I'm a prude or anything because I've used that language...I guess it's more shocking to hear it when you have people in your bar you've never seen. I was going to give it one star but decided I'd give it two because we just moved here and some friends of mine were in town and I thought I'd give them a second chance. We were met by a very nice bartender named Cassie. She was attentive and probably knew as an EMPLOYEE not to talk that way. Anytime someone came in she greeted them. The kicker here? The "owner" was sitting on the other side of the bar playing dice and still using that language and of course drinking miller lite. We'll go when she is working and/or their daytime bartender Ray. He knows a lot about sports and had a great conversation with my husband.

    Upon our arrival, the host asked if we had a reservation. When we said no, she walked away…read more It seemed to be an issue that we didn't have a reservation even though we were able to be accommodated right away. The quietness of the patio on a Friday evening was striking . No ambiance, no background music even though it was the perfect evening to be outside. It was so quiet that it was a bit awkward being the tables so close. It felt like we were all whispering. Our server handed us the menus and told us what the specials of the day were. The 1 star is for the great service given by her. It's a bit excessive when patrons are warned beforehand of NO changes to the menu. The creativity of the chef seemed more important than the desire of the customer. My husband ordered the hamburger and it had no flavor and the fries no seasoning. It looked like something they didn't put effort in making either. He also said that the iced tea that was cloudy. I ordered from the specials of the day: the duck ramen and, even though it looked great and smelled great, it didn't have a lot of flavor. We were shocked to find the price by the time the check came. Beware of the prices of the daily specials. They are not in the printed menu and prices and not indicated on the Facebook page either.
