Clancy's is nestled in 'downtown' Custer, and it is surrounded on all fronts by other bars. The…read moreother bars have their own character, but what sets Clancy's apart is the food and paying attention to detail when it comes to what bars SHOULD have at their customers' disposal. The bar itself has been overhauled and re-finished in several parts until you get what you see now. In short, the place was transformed by its current owners. So, that is nice in that you can walk into a pub in Custer, WI and feel like you walked off the street in any larger town in America. The beer selection is stellar for this neck of the woods, and there is a special attention paid to Irish-oriented alcohol because, well, it's an Irish pub. That, and the owner (Clancy) looks like he crawled out of Braveheart. The food is standard to better-than-average for the most part, but by and large it is done well by Clancy's wife in the kitchen. She runs the show for the most part, and though she is alone, she manages to keep up with the appetites of those who come in...for the most part. The most celebrated food there is probably the Friday Fish Fry (a Wisconsin tradition if you didn't figure that out yet). I've eaten it a number of times, and the consistency of that particular dish is outstanding! Whether you're in Stevens Point, a local, or just moving through the area...Clancy's is worth a stop. It's also the FIRST place you should stop in its neighborhood. There are other bars, but Clancy's is going to give you a bit more of what most people are looking for. Then again, the other bars aren't terrible or overly lacking. They're just more, hmmmm, specific to their particular clientele's needs.

This place has a low profile that belies the quality of the establishment…read more Quietly hidden away just a few minutes from town the external look of Clancey"s gives promise to what's inside which is a warm and well decorated Irish bar with a welcoming publican and friendly staff . But the real stars are on the menu - all home made by the lady of the house - mostly with an Irish / English twist, and all with character and great taste. Personal favorite is the Saint Paddys pizza - a variation on the staple of corned beef and cabbage - served up on a pizza base with a gorgeous mustard sauce. Friday fish fry is baked and crumbed - nothing deep fried and is a pleasant change from the norm. If possible skip eating in the main dining room - it mostly lacks the atmosphere of the front bar and games room - and instead soak up all this place has to offer while sitting at or alongside the bar. The place gets full and busy on Friday nights but is never rowdy and the TVs are well placed and not obtrusive. And leave room for dessert - again they're home made and there's always a couple of themed items that are sure to please. Prices are very reasonable and portions are a good size. I'm a fan.

Soup flights for the win!…read more A last minute invitation resulted in us finding a restaurant we will definitely check out again in the future! A short drive from the Fox Valley, I was startled to see such a nice pub and grill. Looks great from the outside and even nicer in the inside. If I lived close by, I'm sure I'd be there frequently. Plenty of televisions, gaming machines and a well designed layout. I was seriously impressed. The night we went, they only offered soup flights. We were told by our friends, who had been there several times, that they offer only pizzas, soups and appetizers. Our friends had not tried the pizza but said the appetizers are great. There were literally a dozen soups to choose from for our flights. I picked sausage tortellini, clam chowder and stuffed pepper for my flight. It also comes with a piece of cheese/garlic bread. Not only were the soups nice and hot, they were all tasty. This sentiment was shared by my dining partners. The staff were friendly and helpful. The drinks were reasonable and well made. The ambience was excellent. Definitely a place we will return to!

We happened upon Whiskey River Pub and Grill after finding several places closed or too busy…read more The space includes lots of nice touches: the seasoning caddies with the ability to select smaller or larger holes for shaking, the industrial styled chairs and Edison bulbs, the modern plates and unique silverware, cloth napkins, even the cast iron pizza pan with handles. There is a dartboard available and I noticed they had bottles of wine as well. There was just the one man who I believe is the owner working in front and he was busy taking and filling orders the whole time we were in. We ordered the meatballs app and a sausage pizza. While the crust is not made in house, the thin style we went with was super nice and flaky/crispy and the pizza sauce slightly sweet. All in all it was a good meal.

Johns corner bar a staple for shawano county. Well hidden gem that only the locals know about…read more Going into any bar in Wisconsin on a Friday will lead to a discussion of where your going for fish frys and when your in shawano county the response is almost always johns corner bar. What to expect went coming to johns you will not get a seat right away you most likely (on Friday for sure) will wait an hour or more. You grab a number wait till your called order and then they will seat you. You can also expect food that is top notch every time with out question. This trip to the corner bar landed us on a Saturday night prime rib special. The whole family came this time. My dad and I ordered prime rib sandwich ( my only complaint) it's cheap in price and your get what you pay for by getting 1/8 inch thick cut on this. I would gladly have paid 12-15 dollars for a good amount of meat. The wife got broasted chicken and she loved it. My sister ordered the queen cut prime rib and as you can see not like most prime ribs where you get a good portion of fat on it this one did not have much fat and you can come to expect that from johns. Her boyfriend ordered the sirloin which definitely looked like a great cut of meat! My dads wife ordered deep fried shrimp and scallops and the scallops melted in your mouth. Do not shy away from the wait here, like all good things, quality takes time! There's a wait because it's worth it. If you're one to complain about a wait this is not the place for you!

We went with an app of portabella mushrooms, a cup of clam chowder soup, and our entrees were the chicken Caesar wrap and the shrimp fry. The mushrooms were a mystery to us and we felt they should have been listed as mushroom chips, because instead of being slices they were super thin (more like shaved) so you didn't get any mushroom flavor, it was just batter flavor. The clam chowder soup was insanely bland, no amount of salt, pepper or crackers could save it. The wrap was the best thing we ordered; very delicious. The shrimp fry was just so-so, as the shrimp were small and the batter was thick so there again the batter overwhelmed what it was covering and I ended up peeling most of the batter off just to taste the shrimp. Will we go back again? Probably not.
