A couple months back I bought a few $15 for $30 deals online for places I hadn't been to before and…read moreDale Z's on Tour was one of them. When I walked in at 4:30pm the place was packed and very loud, to the point that I thought I walked in on a private party. After making sure that wasn't the case, I found a open seat out of the bar area. Their baseball bat appetizer (egg rolls with beef and cheese inside) reminded me of the cheeseburger shillelaghs that I like from Mo's Irish Pub, so I ordered those as well as hickory smoke BBQ wings and a BYO burger with extra American cheese and lettuce, which came with fries. Last time I was at Mo's the shillelaghs had three (or six when cut in half) to an order, so Dale Z's gives you less baseball bats per order with only two (or four when cut in half). They're fairly comparable, but I like that Mo's gives you sour cream with theirs compared to ranch or marinara at Dale Z's. The wings were good. I usually prefer breaded to grilled wings both for the crunchy texture and grill flavor can sometimes overpower the sauce or rub that's used. The hickory smoke BBQ wasn't going to be overpowered that day, yet it allowed the chicken to have its moments too. The burger, which I mostly ordered just to reach the $30 minimum for the deal I was using, ended up being the star. The cheese was gooey, the seasoning complemented the chargrilled flavor of the patty well, and it was cooked to a perfect medium like I ordered. Really a fantastic burger. The fries needed a little salt and pepper, but weren't bad as a side.

We've played in leagues here over the years, and I've always been impressed by the drinks, affordability, events, and sense of community.

The bartender was very nice though and they had live music on the patio. I didn't eat because of the dog being inside, if it wasn't for that, this place has a lot of potential to be somewhere I'd go on repeat. Unfortunately allergies will prevent that for me.

They have an AMAZING back patio which is just a wonderful spot during the long winters of Wisconsin. Highly recommend checking that out. I was honestly quite surprised by how large of an area as well as by the unique decor. I don't believe they serve food. Or I haven't seen a food menu or anything brought out. But there are so many restaurants nearby to order from or swing by. All in all a standout neighborhood bar on the East Side!

I decided to stop here for a couple cocktails and some lunch after looking at them and driving past…read morethem for years. The place is on the corner with street parking and bigger on the inside than it looks. I meet dick while I was there and Liz was my server. For a neighborhood bar everyone was friendly and welcoming, no one of those click bars. The place is definitely dated in a good dive way with pool table, atm, music machine, gambling machines etc etc. I got so tired over the years of the same 4 old pictures so a steve stop by was desperately needed. I ordered a gin Rickey which is like over 140 years old and once popular but not today and I get the same confused look every time I order one. The menu is small and I will post a picture of it but I ordered the hot wings .75 cents with a minimum of 10, $7.50 is great for wings at this time in a restaurant. The wings are deep fried and finished off on the char grill, char grill is my favorite so I will need to try a cheeseburger next time. My wings looked good for a neighborhood bar that were medium sized so not tiny but not jumbo and just right. My wings were cooked perfect and still moist that were average so my favorite wing place is still safe. Overall it's a nice friendly bar that is definitely reasonable with two tall double cocktails and an order of wings for $19.50, hell some restaurants have wings for $16 on the menu now days. It's a great place to meet some new people and a conversations with new people. I would definitely go back again and I will.

There is a hot pick toilet seat in the ladies room which is a nod to the eclectic vibe. They have some days where they serve hot dogs but mostly there is no food. However there are some really good restaurants within walking distance where you can grab to go and bring it back to the bar. There are tons of regulars that invited us in with open arms. Many corner bars can be so clicky but this one is not. I'll definitely grab a pizza at Papa Luigi's and snag a refreshing drink there with the friendly bartenders.

But sometimes small makes it cozy and with all the holiday decor, it sure was. On a Monday night it wasn't busy at all, aside from us, only 2-4 people were there throughout the time we stayed. I imagine it get's more busy during games and weekends. I don't remember our bartender's name but she was very nice and checked back with us often. They don't have tap beer or food, except for hot dogs (not cooking while we were there) and chips, etc. Everything is pretty cheap so that's a bonus! As I looked around I saw random funny decor and the bathroom has a pink toilet seat! We had a nice time and I'd go there again!

If you go during a busy time and sit at a table, service can be a little slow and the last time we were there my friend had to remind the server several times about her drink order. It's a busy place, I get it but worth mentioning. They have a neat little seating area by a fireplace which is a good place to snag. There's also a side room that is good for groups and probably can be reserved. There's a nice outdoor patio too (closed in winter). I really like the Shorewood location because they have an awesome back patio. Check it out!
