What a find! Stopped by for coffee and a snack after walking the River Prairie trails. The place is…read moregorgeous: stunning bar, comfy seating, lots of glass and light, high celling, beautiful light fixtures - kind of a modern European feel. We were greeted warmly and then seated ourselves. Our server, David, was friendly, knowledgeable, and fun to talk to. We had espresso, chai, and shared the non-cheese charcuterie board. The board was accompanied by a warm crusty loaf of thickly sliced bread (GF available) that I used to make the most delicious little prosciutto sandwiches. Another memorable treat was the positively addictive rosemary walnuts. We decided to split dessert and chose a slice of the flourless chocolate cake. The cake was accented by some raspberries that leant a perfect pop of brightness to the rich, Belgian chocolate cake. This was simple food done perfectly and we loved it. So much so that I brought my husband and daughter back later that afternoon for the cheese charcuterie board, sandwiches and drinks. Same great service and delicious, fresh food. We plan to watch the Packers pre- season game there this weekend - rationalizing we will save money by not having to pay for YouTube TV lol. This warm, sophisticated, and charming place is a gem.

These are not mixed drinks. These are truly crafted cocktails. We have an excellent selection of liquors. Beers on tap. Wine. Appetizers and sandwiches. they have an outdoor seating area and rooftop seating for the summertime. Great service. Beautiful decor. The only downside is it's very loud in there. The acoustics are terrible. Could definitely use some sound absorbing tiles on the ceiling. It's right next to the amphitheater at River Prairie Park. Parking can be tight when there's a concert. It's also a little spender than your average place in the area. I think it's worth it for the experience and unique cocktails.

The dining area is open, with a good assortment of high top and low top tables, and the chairs were cushy & comfy. Everyone in our group of four was very happy with their meals, which consisted of a mushroom & swiss burger with fries, southwest chop salad, chicken bacon ranch salad, and Nashville hot chicken sandwich. The prices were very reasonable, too. We'll definitely stop in again the next time we're in the area.

Guess I didn't read the description before I came out to this place because I was very surprised…read morewhen I entered and the host wanted our credit card instead of seating us at a table first. You get a beer card which is linked to the credit card you provided upon check in and then you go to the wide range of taps on the wall and fill up your glass. There's a little variety in the sizes and types of glassware to choose from. You are charged by oz, and the price is clearly displayed on the signage. I thought it was going to cost us much more to do it this way instead of sitting down and ordering a drink but we think it actually ended up being cheaper to drink this way. We decided to take a seat outside on the patio. It's a large area with games and plenty of different types of seating. You order through the QR code on the menu and your food gets delivered to your table. It came out fairly quick and we were hungry so we ordered way too much food. We tried the Mediterranean Chicken Flatbread which was really good and I highly recommend just getting that! Had the Mediterranean Salad. A nice sized portion and very fresh. Tried the 12 pc boneless wings. I don't normally like boneless wings but that is all they had. So we tried them. Not impressed. Very thick breading, no outstanding flavor. These felt like bar food, which is okay. It is a bar but in comparison to our delicious flatbread I was disappointed. Lastly we tried the Garlic Parmesan Cheese Curds. These were unlike any cheese curd I've had before. They were huge squares which felt like hunks of bread. I though they were too big and too cheesy for my tastebuds. It was a nice place to stop in while we were traveling through and a great day to sit out on the patio.
