    John's Bar is a great example of what a hometown bar should be. The employees are all great- they have good drinks.. better food and reasonable prices. One note on food is come hungry!! The portions are huge!! I suggest trying their homemade hummus! Delish!! If you get there early on Sundays it's buy one get one on your first drink! They have a fun, laid back ambiance. The best part is that even though its on 3rd Street you don't get a lot of rowdy college students!!! The people tend to be anywhere from late 20s to 30s, 40s and so on! It doesn't get better than John's Bar!

    One of my favorite places to stop at when I'm in town. Services is amazing and they treat you like your family. Food is delicious every time, I'd recommend the chicken philly add jalapeños! Just stop on by and start a conversation. Great people here, definitely worth the stop if you've never been here before. Best bar in La Crosse!

    My friends and I, four active duty Air Force members and one civilian, went to Animal House while…read moretraveling for work in Wisconsin. We are a diverse group that includes two Black men, one Filipino, one Mexican, and one white friend. We sat at a table, watched the Lakers game, ordered a few drinks, and were just trying to relax after a long day. Less than an hour into being there, three men walked up to us and said we needed to leave because we were "causing a disturbance." When we asked what disturbance they were talking about, they refused to give us an answer and simply repeated that the "manager" wanted us out. There was no explanation, no specific behavior mentioned, and no actual reason provided. I am not someone who jumps to call anything racially motivated, but it is very hard to ignore how this situation looked and felt. We were minding our business, spending money, and showing respect, yet we were treated like a problem for simply existing in the space. The way it happened felt targeted and completely unprofessional. If this is how they treat paying customers, especially those who do not fit their preferred demographic, I cannot recommend this place. It was uncomfortable, disappointing, and left all of us with a bad taste in our mouths. I hope the establishment takes a hard look at how they handle and respect all customers, because this experience was unacceptable.

    Nice, divey college bar. Very light inside, no dimming here. Drinks were fairly cheap. The…read morebartenders were super nice and friendly and answered all out touristy questions.
