Made several calls with no answer, about 4th or 5th call I finally reached an answering machine. I left a message, about an hour an a half later some very rude man calls and yells into my ear "DID YOU CALL HERE!", I replied "if this is in response to a voicemail I left you and this is the Goose Nest bar, yes I did call" He yelled once again "WELL YOU COMING IN OR WHAT!?!" I calmly replied "Not anymore, thank you." Your results may vary. We spoke of this to other bar patrons and bar owners, they said that's pretty much "par for the course" with the owner of that bar.

We chose this place because it was called "Waterfront" Bar and Grill. We sat on the pet friendly…read moredeck, which actually was in the back parking lot. No waterfront! Blazing sun, so we asked about raising the umbrella, and was told by the bartender we could "have at it" if we wanted to put it up. She also let me know they did not have outside table service so we would have to come in to order. Thankfully, someone did bring it out to us. The young man who brought it out was the only staff the was friendly and helpful and courteous. Inside staff was too busy catering to the bar clientele. As for the food it was very good. Husband had a brat burger which he said was very flavorful. I ordered their philly cheesesteak tots and I enjoyed every bite! So...good food for sure, but service was lackluster as well as the "waterfront location" was a disappointment.

Anyway, we stayed at a VRBO about 100 yards from The Bucket and wandered over Saturday night about 10:00PM. Place was full, but not packed. We got the last table between the dartboards and ordered a round of Busch Light and cheese curds. This is a Busch Light and cheese curds kind of place. From there it was shots of Jager, Fireball, fishing discussions, Packers critiques, transportation plans, making new friends, etc. WE WERE BASICALLY ADOPTED. Not sure how it happened, but we slid into this place and were welcomed like regulars. One of best bar nights ever. SERIOUSLY. We had so much fun we came back the next night after Packers win. Bought a round of Busch Light for the bar (under $50) and started all over again. Magical is the only word I would use to describe it. Until next time Go Pack Go.

The good was the cheeseburger. Came with cheese on both sides of the burger.. nice touch! I had the peach plate. That was okay, nothing special but wasn't displeased at all.

I loved Bridge Up Brewing even before I tasted their beer. This is a little local Wisconsin brewery located on the basement-level of the building that houses Sonny's Italian Kitchen. When you walk into the lobby, instead of walking up the steps to Sonny's, take the ramp down below to Bridge Up and enjoy a beer or a flight of beers. They have a small menu of appetizers, mostly wings and fried things, but if you want a full meal, you should probably go upstairs to Sonny's. I didn't want a full meal, so I stayed at Bridge Up and ordered a flight of beers. One of them was a sour (I love sours), and the others were some of the more popular beer flavors. I picked the U-Pick, which is a flavored with Door County cherries, and was one of my favorites. The others were the higher ABV beers: Flip Flops and Bikini Tops (an imperial IPA) and Stubborn Sturgeon (a New England hazy IPA). I loved all of the beers I chose, but the cherry-flavored U-Pick was my favorite. When in Door County, always choose the cherry-flavored thing! If Bridge Up has U-Pick available when you visit, I highly suggest trying it. The people who work here are very friendly but also stay out of your way, which I appreciated. They encourage you to play something on the jukebox, so go ahead and put on your favorite songs.
