This is a must-visit when you're in the Hayward area. Just a great bar. I do NOT recommend bringing…read morechildren in here, even though many people do. It is a tavern, not a restaurant. The music is always going and is always incredibly LOUD. Like so loud, with the bass turned up so much that it's difficult to recognize the music. But that's part of the ambience they've created. If you don't like loud, don't go. But if you're okay with loud, stop in and experience this place! It's a true American classic. You'll love the taxidermied animal dioramas along with the World's Largest Muskie. Even when the place is packed with people, the service is spot on.

The only reason we stopped in here was to see the bizarre collection of taxidermy. We love this…read morekitschy roadside America stuff. The large fish are interesting but the true stars are the stuffed squirrels, chipmunks, etc playing cards, drinking beers, etc in the dioramas. We did get a couple of sodas and chips - not sure they had much in the way of hot foods. If we were here later in the day I could see spending more time in this classic " up north" Wisconsin bar.

The Bierstube Lounge is the "less formal" dining option at the Garmisch Resort. It's a great place…read moreto come in off the lake, have something to eat and grab a few beers. There's a lovely patio if the weather is nice. Things that I love about the Bierstube: *Moscow Mules available - properly served in copper mugs. Hell yes! *Great burgers. They're 1/2 lb, and never frozen. Above average fries too. *Cozy atmosphere - lots of warm wood and "lodge" decor. *Super friendly staffers. I've only ever had warm, pleasant service here. *Great fried cheese curds *Old timey slot machine that actually pays out quarters FYI - the Bierstube gets quite popular with boaters and vacationers so it might take a little time to get through a meal if you arrive after big groups. Also - the people watching is great. I saw a group of 8 middle aged peeps order giant Slippery Nipples (Baileys + Butterscotch Schnapps = baaarrrrff) and drink 'em down quite happily. Then a table of old guys played Robin Thicke's Blurred Lines on the jukebox. Good times. Good times.

Don't come in to this lounge expecting a quiet place to tuck away in a northwoods atmosphere and…read morehave a drink. People travel for several hours to get here, or hey, maybe they're just from a nearby golf course, but when they get here, they can be LOUD. That's OK though. It's entertaining to watch, and you CAN get good draft beer here (including German style beer) along with good wine, and some tasty appetizers and sandwiches. The lighting is warm and not too bright, and the walls are paneled in knotty pine. The staff generally works well together to make sure patrons are taken care of although during crowded times service can take a bit longer. The windows are large and look out onto the deck where seating is available, and just past that you have a great view of the lake. I dig it. And Joanna T is right, the slot machine is way cool.

Who wants to stand for 3 hours? The average age of attendees guessing was around 45, plus there were people who had just skied the race, think they want to stand for 3 hours? I know you were just trying to squeeze as many people inside as possible and make more money, but this bar isn't 1st Avenue and Cable, WI isn't the twin cities. Your staff were excellent and the drinks were great, the band was great, but whoever manages or owns this place made a big mistake today by having no seating. We've come for the past three years to listen to Molly and traveled 50 miles to do so. We wont return next year if youre not going to have seating.
