What a great find! From the moment we sat down, we had a wonderful experience. Our server was friendly, attentive, and did an excellent job taking care of us. The food was outstanding. The chili was absolutely fantastic, and you can tell the homemade sauces are made with care--they were all delicious. I ordered the walleye sandwich, and it was huge! The fish was fried perfectly--crispy on the outside and flaky on the inside. My husband had the pot roast special with mashed potatoes, and he couldn't stop talking about how much he enjoyed it. They have a huge selection of beer! One thing that really stood out was the owner stopping by our table to visit with us for about 10 minutes. He was genuinely friendly, and it made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Excellent food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in the area! read more

Love this place!! The service and food are always on point! My go to is their buffalo chicken wrap but I've been eyeing the prime rib section for a while, so I went with that today. Wow, absolutely delicious!!! One of the best shaved prime rib sandwiches I've ever had. I added pepper jack cheese and mushrooms. Highly recommend!! read more

I took out lunch from here on a weekday. There were very few people dining in. Inferno avocado chicken was flavorful. Onion rings were crispy. Baja Philly with sweet potato fries was my other entree. That was good as well. read more

I'm new to the neighborhood and was so excited to experience Prime Rib night... It was so "less than"!!! I got the fattiest cut of meat - over half of the portion, flavor ok, but nothing fabulous. Less than attentive staff and when I got the check, I was blown away. It was $45 for a 12 oz serving that was 1/2 fat with cold fries and a small serving of coleslaw. When I mentioned the price to the server, they shrugged and said yea, that's the price and we don't get a discount either. Sad to say, I'll be looking for another neighborhood spot to enjoy. read more

Friday fish was very good and the service was exceptional. I'd guess six different staff helped during our meal: more water, another beer, can I take this... Lots of friendly service by any staff walking by us. Down home daily specials make the pub unique. Enjoy! read more

4.1 Customer Service! The team approach really works here and that along with really good food makes this a high ranking Friday fish fry. The Walleye was good if a bit over breaded and the shrimp was very nice. Missing lake perch though. The clam chowder? World F-in Class ! The only issue was that the last old fashioned of the night (young blond hyper bartender) was not made correctly. ...This is however a great place. read more

The service here is a big variable in the 5 star rating. Mid Town is a staple in the community. The owner treats the staff well... and the staff take great care of the customers. There are nightly specials as well as a pretty substantial bar menu. The walleye sandwich was outstanding - as good or better than many fine dining joints. Companion really enjoyed her taco salad. The Old Fashioneds were hand muddled the way they ought to be. read more

The food here is amazing! Best fish fry in the area. Wait staff is very attentive and does a great job. The only downside is the hostess, don't know what her problem is but we are treated as if she doesn't want our business. I mean we spend several hundred every time we go. We almost did stay this last Friday because of her looks at us as we patiently waited for a table, but your fish is too good to pass. read more

This spot has incredible soup! Seriously, they have 3 soups a night (one is always chili I think) and I understand them to all be homemade! They have a delicious creamy, homemade blue cheese dressing that is seriously so good. They have a nightly specials, including weekday specials! They have complimentary fresh popped popcorn that often has a snack mix, mixed in that I find addicting. I often order their meatless burger, they do a great job with it! read more

Mid Town Pub - Prime sandwich. - American Near Me - Middleton, Wisconsin

First time for us, and on Mother's Day at about 1:30 in a last minute decision to picnic in the sun. We called in our order and it was ready so quickly we were shocked. We had the Patty Melt (one side of bread was rye and the other white/maybe sourdough?), Gyros, Chicken Sandwich, and a Burger. All of the food was tasty, although the fries were bland with no taste for me. Cheese Curds were good. The pricing was appropriate for the servings and we enjoyed our carry-out picnic lunch. I think we will try this again, inside this time. It is a nice option that we never knew about. read more

Reliably good food, better variety than regular bar. Good burgers, fries, Reuben and lots of their choices too. Can be busy with long wait time to get table. Amazing service once you're seated though! read more

This place has great food! The portions are generous and have great flavor. They serve Pepsi and have a full bar. There are tvs to watch sporting events. Even with the tvs, the atmosphere was not overly loud. They tag team service so anyone can help you at anytime. Every server was friendly and seemed to enjoy their job! read more

Every fall I seek a place to watch University of Wisconsin football games. After one "meh" outing I give up for the season. None have had the vibe I'm looking for. Well, the search is over. I tried Mid Town Pub for the first time in fall of 2022. The service here is unlike anywhere else right now - top notch. My friend and I have a count of how many times in a row we have been to restaurants and the staff bring appetizers and there's no plates or utensils. We are supposed to do what? Like eat this food hand over hand? At Mid Town Pub - with a different friend, otherwise that count would have stopped - service is consistent. I appreciate applied effort by multiple members of staff. Popcorn was handed out freely. Even though I hadn't planned to take any or eat it, I did end up having it. It was such a surprise perk, I had to. I've never consumed a Jell-O shot in my life. Until that day. Yes, first and only were the shots given out upon the Badgers scoring. Our burgers, fries, and soda were A-OK too. I appreciated that it wasn't too rowdy and neither the TVs nor patrons too loud. I could converse with my associate. If I had friends interested in watching football games I am sure I would have been back but I hope to go back soon. This is now my spot for watching games outside the house. Don't let the strip mall setting turn you away. Mid Town Pub is worth your time! read more

recommend. Servers and staff are great, better than I've had at anywhere else in recent memory. Dinner was very tasty get something with bacon! read more

Went here for fish fry for the first time. The price was relatively high compared to other places in the area, the fish was soggy and lukewarm, the fries were soggy and cold. Then they rushed us to get out as soon as possible. One of our party left the table to answer a phone call and they immediately took their chair for another table before they got back. There are plenty of better places in Madison with much better food and service so you can safely skip this place. read more

Last visit to my neighborhood place to feast and drink was when the loosening of the worldwide curfew allowing patrons to once again venture out into the scary covid plagued world to test the waters at surviving restaurants. That night I went to Mid Town Pub and had some chili and tequila. That's was perhaps 18 months ago. Earlier tonight I returned home from a day of grinding salt in the mines to find my wife's car missing. A phone call revealed she was with some friends a mile or so east at the MT Pub so I did a reverse, and beelined right there. PACKED. 6:30 or so and every seat was occupied. So I ventured in anyway and found them at the back area awaiting seating. After getting myself an iced tea, we were promptly told a four seat booth was open so drinks in hand we made our way. The menu seemed to be still many of the things I recalled liking, but opting for Fish n Chips, intent on removing the disappointing memory of last nights not so enjoyable version of the same exact meal at a place I won't establishments name. (But the second name on the sign reads Buster) Despite a packed house, all four of our meals arrived in an amazing display of a well run business. HOT and quick. Last night I was disappointed nearly entirely by a soupy (literally the viscosity of warm honey) bland tarter sauce. Tonight I had a thick tarter sauce that clung to my excellent fried Cod as well as my crispy fresh fries, not dripped off like snot from a toddlers chin. My wife had the Buffalo Chicken Wrap, which she told me was really good. Adding, because she boxed the second half for tomorrow, additionally demanding my promising to not eat it. I tried. But about 15 minutes ago I took a bite. 13 minutes ago, I couldn't help myself and took two more. 2 minutes passed, and because it was TOO DAMN GOOD, I may have caused tomorrow to be a shitty day, because I ate the rest of it. 5stars. The clam chowder, as I am darn certain, has ALWAYS been great here. Tonight too, it was incredible. The singular gripe I have: BIGGER BOWL NEXT TIME. I just had the cup. Chances are high, because I hate to upset my wife, I'll be back there tomorrow ordering a large bowl of the chowder, as well as a replacement Buffalo Wrap before she discovers I broke my solemn promise. I shoulda done some photos, but I was enjoying the conversation and food too much to remember. read more

Mid Town Pub - Nothing just a kind word from Spike H last year. - American Near Me - Middleton, Wisconsin

Visited Middleton to drive my sister around (she's considering moving to Madison area) and we wanted to find a place that had bloody Mary's. Well, we found the right place because it was Sunday Bloody Mary Bar! Salad was okay, but the jalapeño poppers with raspberry chipotle were on point, as well as the hearty bowl of chili. My daughter r enjoyed her cheeseburger but didn't save me a bite, so I can't confirm or deny that statement. Lol! read more

Traveling for work and got out around 9pm looking for not fast food to take back to the hotel and shockingly everything closed at 8:30pm except this place on the list. So I saw the score without looking at anything else and called an order in. I pulled up and instantly thought... what was I thinking. But as they say, don't judge a book by its cover!!! What a hidden gem!!! I got the chicken bagel weird app (confusingly good!!!), bone in wings app (super crunchy like I like them with a nice buffalo that packed a kick!!!), prime rib and cheese (similar to what I call a steak and cheese at home and did not disappoint!!!) and the BEST of them all, the grilled chicken club sandwich!!! There was literally nothing I could complain about!!! Even the basic waffle fries were seasoned and delicious!!! Super super cheap!!! Oh man what a spot !!! read more

Tried to go at about 10:00 Sunday morning. Was in need of a Bloody Mary and some grub. Walked right in and had the place to ourselves. The bartender was rolling silverware and the cook was setting up the Bloody Mary bar. "We're closed," the bartender said. read more

Very clean for a strip mall club, everything was very neatly organized and set for guests. Service was very friendly and multiple staff stopped by our table to make sure we had everything we needed. Food was fresh, hot and good flavors. You can find something on the menu for any taste. Will visit again! read more

5 years ago I rated this restaurant a 1. The walleye was terrible. We decided to try it again and I am glad we did. The only way to make the walleye better is to pan fry it. It was good non the less flaky and tasty. The choice of sides are interesting. Clam chowder or chili or French onion soup or salad or baked potato or fries. That's in addition to the garlic bread and Cole slaw that comes with the meal. We were happy too that we could eat outside as that would have been a deal breaker for us. read more

It's a Friday night and we attempted to eat here at 6:00 pm after a memorial for a family member. I grew up in Middleton and we were showing family from out of town the flavors of Wisconsin. When we walked in we were greeted by a hostess who just shrugged her shoulders and told us they were full." We asked the wait time and were given another shoulder shrug and she said, "I don't know; we're full. We walked out dismayed by the cold interaction. We would have gladly waited for a table, but at this point we felt we were clearly not wanted. Apparently Midtown Pub doesn't want any business. There are way too many options in Madison and Middleton so I would just steer clear of this place. read more

Service is amazing; so amazing I had to let them know before we left last Friday ! Good service is just hard to find these days. Food is good. Fun and relaxing atmosphere! We will be back!! read more

The service is great, the prices are reasonable, and the food is wonderful. We have never been disappointed.

Awesome service great energy, lovely patrons and staff, great food. My only wish is that they'd return the bar to its pre-covid configuration. To sit at the bar you need to jam into one end with only a few other stools, and the rest of it has tables with I bunch of junk stored underneath them. Looks bad - bad. But aside from that I totally dig the place. Go often! read more

Out of towner looking for a place to watch my Chargers, and dialed up this place. I expected more of a "sports bar", but it's more of a "restaurant sports bar", if that makes sense. There were a handful of folks when I arrived, but no one was watching football. Asked to have a TV turned to the Chargers/Bengals game, and was rewarded with seeing it happen! I had the Edmund Fitzgerald, several waters, and I ordered the Denver Brat (no onions). It was great! The waitstaff were kind, professional and attentive! I brought my better half the MTP mini's, and she enjoyed them very much, too. Would definitely visit again next time I'm in the area. read more

Service is amazing - I think 4 different super friendly people took care of me within a couple of minutes of sitting down with my beer.

I dined at Mid Town Pub several weeks ago. The staff was fine, and I was approached quickly, but several things went wrong with my order. It was almost as though the server hadn't listened to me at all when placing it. The restaurant was not crowded. In addition, the server made a vulgar comment about a competitor. The problems were fixed, for the most part, and the meal was good, so I decided to give them another chance, and went there again, ordering the same thing - a veggie burger, fries, cole slaw, and soft drink. This time, I received the food the way I asked for it. I was even going to comment to the manager about the improvement of this latest visit. Instead, he* approaches *me*, and with a grim facial expression, hands me the check, and said I'm not welcome there anymore. Reason: I complained about "everything", and was "rude" to wait staff". As an older and assertive woman dining alone, who had legitimate gripes, voicing them directly, I can't be sure, but I think that discrimination was a factor in this treatment. I had only asked them a few questions, one of them being if they could replace my soda, which tasted strange. A fresh bowl of popcorn I requested had not been brought to me, and I got up and got it myself, but quietly, and not in a huff. I asked to speak to the owner. He had the same facial expression as the manager, and parroted the same thing he had said. As it stands, they both read a review I wrote on Facebook about my initial bad experience there (of which I also said favorable things.) I honestly believe this is the main reason for the ban. As I was leaving, I paid the check, added a 15% tip, like last time, was polite and courteous, wishing the staff a nice weekend. I'm 67 years old, and have never been banned from a restaurant before this. When mistakes are made by restaurant staff, and a customer verbalizes it, the staff should apologize, make it right, and tell them that they hope they return. When you're hungry and you decide to spend your money at one restaurant out of hundreds to choose from in town, that should be respected. Calmly, I told them I'll be writing more reviews of the establishment. I realize this is a popular restaurant/pub with good food, but I was astounded by how this situation was handled. The customer comes first. read more

I really enjoy this place. I experienced the Prime Rib special one Saturday. That was wonderful BUT that Friday Fish Fry was incredible. Let me elaborate a tad. Not only was the pricing fabulous , and the Fried Cod great BUT THAT HOMEMADE CLAM CHOWDER!!! The absolute BEST I've had in years. You can always tell a true Chowder made from scratch that's the perfect consistency with tender clams and the herbs!! I could stand on the roof and praise this soup. I felt like that Seinfeld episode when Elaine is walking with George then takes a taste of George's Crab Bisque( from the soup nazi) then promptly reacts " oh I gotta sit down " It's THAT GOOD!! Thanks to the Chef. Simply amazing Oh and also...above and beyond the best guest service also. Every time I visit !! read more

Great atmosphere and the service was fantastic. The food was excellent with generous helpings. I'd come back!

Great place for a drink but no bar, wonder why it's called a pub. Attached photo shows what used to be a bar but now serves as a giant to-go table in the middle of the restaurant. Not a great layout. Service is great and food is delicious but I'm writing this as a review to the bar. read more
