But the illusion fades the moment a Bloody Mary arrives at the table. This is a bar that takes its craft seriously. The cocktail was thoughtfully prepared and balanced, revealing an attention to detail rarely found in establishments trading on casual charm alone. The atmosphere is equally compelling: lively without being chaotic, welcoming without feeling manufactured. It possesses the kind of authenticity that cannot be designed or replicated. In an era of increasingly curated hospitality, this remains a genuinely local gathering place--unpretentious, distinctive, and unmistakably its own.

We like our walleye and eggs for breakfast, and decided to try out the Squirrel's Nest. It is a…read moresmall establishment with a bar to the left and seating area, to the right, with two smaller tables on the side of the bar. We arrived about 10:00 am, and it was packed. It was very loud with people talking, due to the small space. We sat at our table and waited awhile for a server, but didn't know if we needed to order at the bar. After a while, a waitress arrived to take our order. She was very joyful and friendly. We both ordered the walleye and eggs, which included hashbrowns and toast. My husband added cheese and onions on the hashbrowns at no extra cost. We also ordered a Bloody Mary, which came with a chaser. They arrived with a spear of mozzarella cheese, pimento olive, smoked sausage, and a dill pickle. The walleye had a nice thin crust and the eggs and hashbrowns were cooked perfectly. My better half said that he didn't taste any onions in the hashbrowns and they used American cheese, which made them runny. It was a good breakfast, and we enjoyed our time there. However, due to the loudness, we probably won't go back, as it was hard to have a conversation. Be aware that they only take cash, but they do have an ATM in the building. This establishment definitely had a great atmosphere and service, with friendly staff.

If you are a boater, and boat Lake Kegonsa, then you know that summer there is not the same as fall. Springers used to be called Sunny Side. That's because it is on the North side of the Lake, and the patio seating needs umbrellas. In the summer it's very crowded, but still a lot of fun. They do a great job with the overflow. The bar area has a lot of seating for a bar, bartenders are prompt and serve pretty fast. The bar itself is shaped for maximum seating and service. There is a pool table in an area that usually serves as waiting area for people waiting for the dining room. It was a beautiful Saturday so we went for a late lunch. The bar menu is great. I had a burger, a Bison, Bore, Elk and Wagu burger. I didn't know how it should be cooked so I asked to have the chef decide. It was rare, and delicious. I do wish they sliced the onions in a thin round slab though, it's hard to pile on large chunks. I also had seasoned fries. My wife had a n amazing prime rib mushroom Swiss grilled sandwich. She also got their homemade chips which she always liked. Service was extra tip good. They also have a water cooler with ice outside so you can get your own at anytime. We drink a lot of water so we like that. Our beer was Tail Wagger. Sitting outside on the lake front is peaceful. We had a nice time and lingered a bit longer than usual. Even though it is getting colder out, this is the time of year we like to go. The bar food is worth sitting inside, lots of lake windows and perfect for rainy days and winter. We may try the dining room again. We find the food there isn't very consistent, so we will review it later.

I won't claim it's authentic, because I have no idea. I can only claim delicious and it's surprisingly accurate to sauces I've eaten in NORTHERN China, which might tell you something. Suggest replacing jalapeno with any of the common Asian peppers. 3) love the quaint place. There's a small stage in back, which may or may not get good use (I hope it does). Service is friendly and professional. It's OK to dine alone. I'm no expert on Poutine but it's also good comfort food. They have house made cocktails which seem appealing and from what I can tell, people enjoy. Best times to visit: Saturday afternoon, or before a show.

It's an utter shame how terrible Dane County is about making lake/water space accessible to the public (one thing Chicago does way better than Wisconisn, unfortunately), but Water Street Tavern totally gives me the waterfront dining fix. It's along the river, not the lake, which gives it a bit more of an intimate feel to it. Their outdoor space is absolutely beautiful and I highly recommend checking it out. We came here for our monthly fish fry, never having been here before. We came around 5:30p on a Friday and were told no indoor tables until about 8pm. It was a tad chilly out but we opted for the immediate outdoor table. There is a fireplace out there, but it's more aesthetic than anything, it provided no heat our way but we were find with sweaters. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and super fun to chat with. I wish they had your basic cod on the fish fry menu - and I was surprised they didn't - but I opted for the walleye instead. It's one very large piece but it was pretty good! Crunhcier breading but not excessive. I enjoyed the house old fashioned. I wish they had supper club boozy ice cream dessert drinks, but they don't so I opted for a cocktail as dessert instead. My dining mates got the cheesecake and ate the whole thing. We left around 7:15pm and it was empty inside, not sure what happened there, but either way I'm glad we ended up outside and I will definitely be back here more often now that I've discovered this wonderful place!
