They have appealing specials that make their awesome grill options and tasty libations budget-friendly. Check their Facebook page for specials. On our recent visit, I enjoyed their cheeseburger, fries and a beer Memorial Day special for $7. Yes, $7! They had a free z shot of the week (Charlie Brown) that was oh so tasty. We have loved everything we have had to eat there. Adding to the allure is that the locals are great people, so you're bound to have a great time with every visit.

After getting settled in, we decided to pop in for a drink before grabbing some dinner. Our server was amazing and so very kind when I asked if I could get a Penelope toasted old-fashioned. We got really lucky on an October fall night by being able to sit outside on their lit up patio that overlooks the town center. they have various signature cocktails that boast bold flavor and fun pairings. And if you're into low proof or no proof cocktails, they did not leave you out as they have a fantastic menu showcasing delicious recipes for those as well. This ended up being a super special weekend for us and I can't wait for us to return back.

The main focus is the bar but they do have light bites and specialty nights. When we ordered they…read morespecifically said "the food will come out when it comes, we aren't a restaurant so we will get to the food when we get to it, it's not like an appetizer that will come before the lobster roll." We went for the first time for Lobster roll night and the lobster roll was FANTASTIC! The Burrata and Grasshopper were tasty as well but the Mozzarella Wontons lacked mozzarella and were practically empty inside, maybe a very tiny sprinkle of cheese. I'd go back again for their specialty lobster night in a heartbeat but could do without the other items we had. I'd probably try a few more light bites from the menu. The server was pretty good but left us and other hanging for a long period and many people ended up going to the bar to get help, but again this is mainly a bar and the special night had a place full of patrons for food and I believe our server was the only one for the whole place and then two people solely behind the bar.

I know you were just trying to squeeze as many people inside as possible and make more money, but this bar isn't 1st Avenue and Cable, WI isn't the twin cities. Your staff were excellent and the drinks were great, the band was great, but whoever manages or owns this place made a big mistake today by having no seating.

We were greeted warmly and then seated ourselves. Our server, David, was friendly, knowledgeable, and fun to talk to. We had espresso, chai, and shared the non-cheese charcuterie board. The board was accompanied by a warm crusty loaf of thickly sliced bread (GF available) that I used to make the most delicious little prosciutto sandwiches. Another memorable treat was the positively addictive rosemary walnuts. We decided to split dessert and chose a slice of the flourless chocolate cake. The cake was accented by some raspberries that leant a perfect pop of brightness to the rich, Belgian chocolate cake. This was simple food done perfectly and we loved it. So much so that I brought my husband and daughter back later that afternoon for the cheese charcuterie board, sandwiches and drinks. Same great service and delicious, fresh food. We plan to watch the Packers pre- season game there this weekend - rationalizing we will save money by not having to pay for YouTube TV lol. This warm, sophisticated, and charming place is a gem.

The acoustics are terrible. Could definitely use some sound absorbing tiles on the ceiling. It's right next to the amphitheater at River Prairie Park. Parking can be tight when there's a concert. It's also a little spender than your average place in the area. I think it's worth it for the experience and unique cocktails.
