a bowl of guacamole and chips
Tony W.

Just a normal towny kind of place. Food came out fast and service was fine. Only thing I didn't like is our table was the closest table to all the pinball machines and games kind of felt like we're just eating at Chuck E. Cheese. It'd be nice if the games were all the way in the back by the pool tables.

Came here during my trip to Minneapolis. Found out it was only a 20 minute drive to Wisconsin. This town was very cool to check out. Small town vibes on a lake. We came here to try cheese curds in Wisconsin! They didn't disappoint! The staff was friendly and the drink specials were good here. I'd definitely recommend giving this place a try if you're in the area and looking for a good sports bar or cheese curds.

May I start off by saying that I am a Pretzel? Okay...my high school mascot was a pretzel and thus, my hometown is obsessed with all things pretzel. That said, I know my way around a good soft pretzel and Hudson Tap has by far, the best I've ever eaten! So good that I went back again during our short, 1-week visit. Also amazing? The super funny and friendly staff (we loved Eric) and the low-key arcade vibes and ample TV's and seating to catch a ball game. Beer was cold and delish, service was fast, and the food was affordable, fresh, and very good. The pretzel I raved about was so dang fluffy and the cheese and mustard were tasty sidekicks. The fried pickles (with ranch-duh!) were flavorful and crisp. So much more "oomph" when they are spears instead of pickle chips. Side house salad was huge with tons of toppings for a small price. I had to share. Another star are the bone-in wings. We got the MN rub and DANG. So good! We even asked if they sell the rub so we could bring it home. The wings were meaty and perfectly cooked with crisp skin and juicy insides. Yes, please. Can't wait to head back here next time we're in town. It is perfectly located in Downtown, parallel to the river. No outdoor seating but great AC on a hot day!

BBQ pork Mac n cheese

A bit of a louder place, but love the amount of TV's and atmosphere here. We sat at the bar and had great service. Ordered one of their special seasonal pizza's that had pulled chicken, poblano's, corn and beans, cheese, and a few different Mexican style sauces that were amazing. We also ordered the BBQ pork Mac and cheese that was really flavorful. It came with an herby bread and the pork was super Smokey! We will definitely be back to try the build your own burger among other menu items that caught our eyes. I really hope they make this southwest chicken pizza a regular menu item instead of seasonal, it was that good!

Buzzin from a good time! Came for trivia night and left with a fully belly. Special shout-out to the seasoned sour cream; the most delicious thing on the menu. Extra kudos for having Pistachio Cream Ale on tap. Server was quick and spot on. Ambiance was great with lots of games to stay occupied. I would definitely recommend stopping here for a Build Your Own Burger or a drink!

Watching the game at the bar on consecutive screens. It's a family place.

This is probably the best place to watch a game in the area. If nothing else, they have the most televisions that I've seen anywhere near the Twin Cities. It's a good atmosphere and people do get into the games, which makes it more exciting to be there. The food is great and you probably can't go wrong with the build your own burger: it will fit your dietary wants and needs. There are lots of beer on tap and at least one non alcoholic beer in cans as well. Seats near the windows in summer are screened in. You are in the great outdoors as well as a great pub. I like the staff as well. They match the fresh energy of the place. I recommend stopping in for a game!

Hudson Tap is a great bar on Main Street with excellent food - 4 stars! Next up on my list of Hudson eating adventures was the Hudson Tap... My first impression walking in was: clean, modern, and welcoming. It has a giant bar on the left side that is almost as long as the building - very impressive. They also have quite a few arcade games and some pool tables in back. The food is a step above the usual bar fare. My friend got a burger and I got a 10 inch pizza. Both meals were good (see photos). They also have a nice selection of seasonal specialty cocktails and of course, tons of beer choices. Finally, the customer service was very good. Our server was completely on top of her game. I couldn't help but notice that she never wrote down our orders, she memorized them. And she knew everything about the food & drinks. A true professional - for sure. Thumbs up! -Daddy Maxx Retro

With Hudson Tap being new to the neighborhood we had to try it! We stopped in on a week day about 5pm and bellied up to the bar right away! The decor is great! Video games, tons of TV's, super comfy bar stools! The bartender was attentive and got us drinks and menus. For this visit we decided to go with appetizers. We tried the cheese curds, beef nachos and the Bavarian pretzel. The cheese curds were good. I'd say about half of the curds in the basket were over deep fried and were hard. The other half were ok. The beef nachos were really good! We ran out of all the toppings and were left with a lot of tortilla chips. In my opinion the nachos could use more toppings. Last but not least, the pretzel. It was huge and warm and delish! The only issue we had was the cheese - it was too spicy for us. We will definitely be back to try some entrees!

Platinum Burger
Coree S.

Hudson Tap is a great bar and restaurant! Tons of cider beer options which I loved, they have Ciderboys Peach which is one of my faves! The owner Matt is a great guy and works his butt off whether it's cleaning tables, serving food, making drinks, or visiting with guests he does it all! I had the Platinum Bacon Burger which was our server Henry's suggestion and my Husband had the fish fry which was FANTASTIC! Definitely recommend this place if you are in Hudson, Wi. or even if your not!

My half of the salad and still plenty of food
Daniel H.

Ok it's a sports bar with every inch of the facility covered with something that makes noise - TVs Video games pinball machines - so it's loud. And the food was great and HUGE. We split a chicken bleu cheese salad and sweet potato fries. The salad was full of stuff on top of fresh crunchy lettuce. And the skinning fries we wonderful. Come be loud!

Darts anyone? If darts is what you're looking for, you've hit the Bullseye! Guvs houses a number of…read moredart machines that will keep you busy while having a few. Personally I like old school boards and sharp tips. It keeps people honest while impeding traffic passing through your game. Across the street you'll find the Village Inn, so if you're bar hopping it's only a few stumbles away. I'm thinking that Guvs gets the overflow from Village and vice-versa. There was a lot of talk about Village when I was in Guvs with my buddy. Folks were dishin' the T. Plenty of drama happening across the way. Hey, as long as it wasn't about me I'm good. You don't want to get me involved. For I'm excellent at stirring the pot. As a matter of fact, did you hear about the new guy? Well he...... The beer is cold and the tenders aren't. Friendly as all get out. You'll enjoy the part of your life that you decide to share with the locals. Quick Tip: Look for the calendar on the fridge behind the bar. It affords you the possibility of earning a bit of the green. Choose a day, write your name and plop down what they're asking. You may find yourself in a position to buy the house a round. Who knows, I may be part of that house! Cheers!!!

Stopped in last night, Friday, as I was to meet a friend. Walked in about 9:20.. to a partially…read morefull bar and a couple fellas throwing darts. Liked the vibe... very chill. Super friendly bartender Jordan was quick to offer to make me a cocktail, rattling off what some of the popular ones were... I channeled my former 21yo self and opted for a reasonably $4 priced Amaretto Sour. Great digs, spacious and well lit. Easy parking w a small private lot. Walked past a patio set out on the sidewalk as I entered. I didn't stay for more than the one drink since my friend reached out they had decided to eat across the street. When I told Jordan I'd be leaving and would like to tab out. I was met w a very friendly "I appreciate you coming in!" I don't drink in Hudson often, that's now down the hill @ the brewery or Nova but I will definitely make the drive up the hill to come back o Guv's Place for a delicious drink made by the friendly Jordan in a relaxing and comfortable, welcoming environment. Thanks Jordan and Guv's for a great inaugural visit, cheers!
