    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!

    First off my husband and i come here because we love a good crispy smash burger. And they NEVER…read moredisappoint. My husband and i ventured out today to get dinner . Simple burger and fries for me and he wanted the loaded smash burger fries with an extra patty. While we waited he enjoyed a PBR and i had a small scoop of ice cream from next door. We got our food (or so we thought!!) and since it was tied shut we didn't question it we just grabbed it and went home. Got home only to realize it was not our order. So i drove back and the man behind the counter immediately saw me and apologized for the mix up. They then replaced our order and were working to remake our food. And he told me i could keep the food from the mix up. Which awesome, So I'm waiting for our original order to come out and it does and i had to double check for the extra patty on the fries and unfortunately that was missed. So i just asked to have a second patty on the side that could be added. I waited a while for the second patty. It was super busy though so i didn't wanna be pushy. I asked about it about 10-15 mins later and i was told it would be out shortly. I said ok that's fine. I was just tying make sure my food was going to be warm still. Within 2 minutes the food came out and it was all bagged up. The lovely man behind the counter (i wish i had caught him name!!!!) rushed over and apologized for the inconvenience and then said he refunded the order. This was completely unexpected i never ever thought i would be refunded i just wanted what i had paid for. I told him he didn't have to do that and he just told me to have a good night and enjoy dinner. To say i was shocked was an understatement. I nearly cried it was just such a nice gesture. So now i get home and i take the food out and get my husband his dinner and a realize because they messed up not adding the second patty they remade the entire smash burger fries and added the second patty. I realized why it had taken so long. They remade the entire thing and didn't just put a patty in a box for me. This place goes above and beyond for their customers and the food is fantastic. My husband and i will be coming here every time we want a burger and will Be recommending it to all our friends and family. Not many places out there value customer service the way Archie's does. Thank you again if you read this review. Yall definitely made an unfortunate situation amazing, we will be back to see you soon.

We went there on a Saturday night around dinner time.The place is a small bar with limited tables. So we ate at the bar. The bartender was friendly and told us there were no menus just the lighted sign with specials. I had a cheeseburger with onion rings and she had the same with fries. There's no designated cook so our bartender looked like he would prepare the food. After going to the kitchen he told us the grill and fryer weren't ready so it might be a short wait for our order. The food came out warm. The bun was fresh and toasted. But, my girls top bun was a bit burnt. But, she enjoyed it. The burgers looked to be smaller sized quarter pound in weight. The onion,tomato and lettuce were fresh. It tasted fine and looked good no thrills. The onion rings were warm, battered nicely and crunchy. My girls fries were had a nice crunch with a touch of salt.
