I appreciated that their full menu is offered during brunch. Can't wait to come back!

It wasn't spicy, but there was chili oil on the table in case you wanted more. The beef was so tender and just melted in your mouth! The eggs were also wonderful.

The environment in the restaurant makes up for it though, especially the Pokemon on the TV. Will definitely be back!

A must visit in Madison! The food is great and the beer is tasty…read more Came in early evening on a Wednesday. It was pretty empty. They have a wing deal - 15 wings and 2 pints for $25. We got the Korean BBQ and Habanero. The habanero is SPICY!! My mouth was burning after two wings. I always get the APA beer. Classically delicious! Luckily we walked because parking can be tricky to find. Service can also be a little hit or miss. Today our server was a lil forgetful.

Every time I visit Madison, it is an absolute guarantee that I will be stopping by The Great Dane…read morePub...most trips more than once! Great Dane Pub has become one of my favorite spots in Madison for a variety of reasons from the drinks, vibes, service and community support! Situated on the corner of Doty and King in downtown Madison, Great Dane is a welcome sight for any visitor or local looking for a chill spot to have a solid drink, tasty bite and/or a good time! The pub is one large space, but it is separated into a few unique areas. One side is quintessential pub with a long bar, lots of dark woods, and a good sized dining room. The other is more of a pool hall vibe where you will find the other side of the bar, several pool tables, lots of TV's, high tops, darts, etc...We have bellied up to both sides of the bar and while I like both sides, I prefer the vibe of the pub side. They have a fairly extensive food menu with several bar/pub classics such as wings, nachos and burgers. But they also offer a good variety of sandwiches, bowls, salads, soups and even tacos. While we are normally here for the drinks, we do enjoy the cheese curds, wings and poutine! Speaking of drinks, they always have a great menu of house cocktails that is constantly updated for seasonality. I have had several iterations of cocktails and since I visit a few times a year, I always get to try new seasonal cocktails and beers! Service is always stellar here, no matter what side of the bar you are on. Welcoming, friendly and helpful...every time! Overall, I am an absolute fan of The Great Dane Pub!

The rice and peas was a little dry and I needed hot sauce but very flavorful. We had no complaints about the festival and cabbage. My biggest complaint was the service. Our main server may have been having a bad day because he was very curt; at the end we got our check from a different worker and she was lovely. The food took quite a long time for a lunch past 1:30pm, when there were only three other tables. We would come back but would plan for a bit more time, this is probably not the best place for a quick stop lunch.

The weather was terrible when I stopped in, so I had the restaurant to myself. They have a full bar and cocktail list. I started with old-fashioned made with rum. It was delicious. For food items, I wasn't that hungry so opted for a few items. Ordered the beef and cheese, empanada, jerk, chicken, skewer, and the oxtail birria taco. Except for the chicken skewer not having a hard sear, everything was exceptionally delicious. Love the pineapple and onion relish that accompanied the chicken skewer. The Beria taco was rich with unctuous oxtail meet in a soaked tortilla shell. It was seriously addiction. Love to see the empanada with some sort of accompanying sauce, but regardless it was delicious. Three TVs to watch sports on. And just a great setting to grab a bite to eat. Highly recommended.
