    What a great option for a rainy day of summer vacation..... the staff were excellent and happy to…read moredeal with any question.... We played 2 games and had an absolute blast with our family of 5! We will be back next year!!

    It was really late, and we were staying at the fine Hotel across the street. Hungry and moreover,…read morein the mood for a nightcap; finding nothing else open for business, we piled into this place, expecting nothing at all. It's a bowling alley bar, in far North central Wisconsin. No frills, no atmosphere, and swelling with the sad vibes of being some of the onliest people in the place besides the staff VERY close to closing time. We had just played a sold-out show at a wonderful Arts Center in Minocqua, so we were not bereft of self-esteem, we were just hungry and thirsty. Well. Cocktails first-being in Wisco, I had to order a Brandy Old Fashioned. It came in a generous plastic cup, the same size as my wife's Diet Coke. It was well-made. Goal #1 achieved. We learned, gratefully, the kitchen was "still open" The menu was a bit surprising. It didn't look like a typical "Bowling Alley Bar" menu. I ordered a "Patty Melt"-not my usual order, but the menu claimed it would come on rye bread with Wisco Cheese. Wife ordered Burger and Fries, and our pal Max ordered "Shrimp"--thinking it would be the typical frozen crap one would expect at a bowling alley bar near midnight. Well. The "Melt" and Burger were delicious, the Fries were excellent, and the Shrimp were nicely steamed and very fresh. WHAAAAAAAA? I was sober, folks. and not THAT hungry to mistake mediocre for anything else. Somebody had some pride in that kitchen. Although they locked the doors, they didn't throw us out. A cocktail or two more and a fine nightcap was had by all. Kudos to Morgan the Bartender, who appeared like a droll Gen Z'er, but turned out to be most pleasant. We were encouraged to see her doing cleanup most enthusiastically--told us a lot about why the experience there was so enjoyable. They care...You find that a lot in Wisconsin Restaurants.

    I came here during the playoffs while on a weekend ski trip in Wisconsin. What a great idea!…read more Every time the Packers scored the bar dished out free shots to everyone. I was definitely cheering for the pack once I found this out. They also had very cheap $5 pitchers. This made for a fun night...especially considering our assumption was how are we going to have fun at little bars in middle of nowhere wisconsin. We never ended up bowling though... the bar was too much fun with the game on. The crowd was a mixed bunch...from camo wearing outdoorsmen to rich Chicago suburbanites. Everyone was into the game and having a great time though (probably cause of the free shots). They also have some pretty good food here...MASSIVE quesadillas in particular! If I ever go skiing in the area again I know I will be back here!

    I had to go to Wausau to help a friend with her rental house and we needed to take a break for…read morelunch. She kind of knew the area so we decided here and it was close to the house. I had the pulled pork with the fresh cut fries. The pulled pork was dry but it did have good flavor. I like the fact they give you the BBQ sauce on the side and you have the option of spicy or regular. I opted for the spicy and its not really spicy but did have a good flavor. I like to dip on the side and dont like it drenched on top. If the pulled pork wasnt so dry I would not have even put the sauce on. It came on pretty big size bun but would have been nice if it was toasted or not so dry. I would say there was a nice quantity of meat on the bun and they didnt skimp on that. The fresh cut fries were good and not limp like some places do. They did not salt them so you had to yourself. My friend had the soup and salad bar which was part of their lunch special so not sure if they have it up all the time or just during lunch and that was $5.99. My mom had the chicken quesadilla and she said the flavor of the chicken was very bland and not very much meat on it. It did however look good. Came with lettuce, tomato on top and sour cream. She said if she returned there she would not order that again. The place was clean and the service was fine. Nothing above average by any means. I would go back if I was in the area as they seemed to have a nice variety on the menu from wraps, burgers, pizzas, apps and several diffrent kinds of sandwhiches.

The atmosphere is full of energy in this all inclusive LARGE facility which serves many functions. In addition to the 3 large sections of lanes, there is an arcade of games, a pool hall, banquet rooms, and several kitchens and bars. The waitstaff are clean and conscientious, the employees are helpful and friendly, and restrooms are conveniently located in many places. Need some pro shop work done ? THEY HAVE IT ALL HERE, with an experienced pro to help you purchase, drill, and fit the ball and gear to your needs. The Elliotts are great employers who care for their employees and customers alike. Fish fry? YES PLEASE.

We spent a couple of hours at the bar watching a football game and eating a homemade pizza. Both were average experiences with the pizza and service. We spend a whole day in the convention center with a Lunch and dinner. The food was average. We attend a lot of conventions. We had to ask a couple of times for water at our table. I am sure cost wise it was appropriate. We had a buffet lunch of sandwiches and cold salad and chips. The dinner was meat and salad. Both meals had a dessert table of cookies and bars. It was a little different wandering around a bowling alley while at a convention.
