What a wonderful discovery for us on Tuesday, 9/15/26! From the moment the bartender welcomed us,…read morethe genuinely friendly vibe made our time at the bar so enjoyable. And they fry their French fries in beef tallow--wow, the flavor is unbeatable! I could have finished a bucket of those perfectly crisp potatoes. The foot-long hot dog was delicious; as a hot dog fan, I'd say it's top-notch. My wife had a patty melt and loved it as much as any she's ever tried. This little gem in the heart of Chetek will definitely be a regular stop whenever we're nearby. The food is outstanding, and the beer is ice-cold!

We have been coming to this place for 20 years and it has gone through a few owners in that time…read more Some have been good some not so much, but it's always been a popular spot right on the water with a great atmosphere, decent drinks, and varying quality of food. Visited for dinner 3x this year and the new owners seem to have focused on the food being better. Gone twice for Friday night fish fry and the quality of the fish has been a pleasant surprise. I distinctly remember last year coming in later in the evening for a fish fry and getting a baked potato that was a dried out relic. Ordered one this year and it was fresh and hot. Little things like that make a big difference. Fish seems to be hand breaded and they also offered a broiled option which comes with delicious garlic butter to dip it in. You can get soup and salad bar and the soup is always good although the salad bar can be a bit picked over if you come in later like we tend to... My dad has ordered the drunken captain chicken twice and raves about it. Even the picky eaters in our family are content going there. We had the same waitress on a couple trips and she is so friendly and attentive you never have an empty drink. I would say my only complaint is the old fashioned. They are so small you take a couple sips and it's empty. Bigger Glasses! Overall it seems like they are intent on moving this place in the right direction. It used to be the top spot in town and hopefully it is again! Lots of things to do...pool tables, video games, and they always seem to have music, trivia, karaoke or something going on. We haven't hung out in the tiki bar yet this year I'll leave that for the next review...

Service consists of the one bartender on duty, so can take a while. There's a patio outside, so you can always wander out and enjoy your beer there, but if you don't appreciate choking down second-hand smoke in the process, then the patio is not recommended.

On our recent visit, we had a large party, but the staff handled it well. We sat in the back area, which was spacious and very clean. The younger guy that helped us was super friendly and able to handle our party with ease. The food was excellent and arrived to the table hot, fresh, and around the same time. My patty melt was amazing. It had tons of grilled onions, and the rye bread was toasty and buttery.

lazy Sunday afternoon and decide to have an ice cold root beer. Decided try a new place in town…read morethat changed ownership recently. The name is Custers and located in a small town called Chetek Wisconsin. The menu is not extensive but adequate. Ordered foot long chili cheese dog basket with root beer. The car hop brought out my order in a plastic basket and the drink in a plastic glass. I was in my car and was expecting a tray that would sit on the driver's window for easy eating, but that did not happen. I asked the young lady for a tray and she did bring it out. I then examined my order and discovered soggy lukewarm fries, foot long hotdog with skin that was so tough it would not be cut by a plastic knife. In the great state of Wisconsin, known for its cheese, this dog had cheese whiz and nothing that resembled chili. It was a brown liquid with chili flavor but no onions, beans or hamburger. What a disappointment! This stand is only summer seasonal and makes it money on repeat business - which I will not be among that crowd. They had a golden opportunity to bring a new venue to town with very little added cost but a world of new place to enjoy. Sorry Custers but it is my last stand if this is how it will be going forward.
