American food at its best.
Justin H.

A friend recommended I try the Homemade root beer and cheese curds. I loved them both, there's a full menu of Drive-in food, the price is right and atmosphere friendly. If your at Ft McCoy or actually in Sparta, WI check it out.

Its dinner in a new town
Erik L.

I am in town for a while and this was my first attempt at a local spot. The customer service was very friendly and cordial. They offered great suggestions on what to eat since I am new here and we decided o. The cod, Cole slaw, fries and a root beer shake which only cost $.99. The food was prepared fairly quickly and I enjoyed it all. If you are in town this is not a bad place to rest and eat. The fries are not the best but everything else was good.

We stopped here after site seeing around Sparta. With 10 of us in the group we figured this would be a good stop. Everyone was very happy with what they ordered. The food was great and fast service. We all said we will be back again.

Foxhole Pub - Brandy Alexander - basically a delicious, boozy soft-serve second to NONE

Pan fried walleye was great! Salad bar looked sketchy, but don't they all…read more The place was dark and had a definite pub vibe going for it.

A friend had recommended checking out the Foxhole after her last visit here - she said the small…read moretown vibe was great and the old fashioned were great. I've always liked the Sparta side of Fort McCoy better than Tomah, as it just seems more like an individual small town versus a big-box thoroughfare. What a wonderful recommendation, I had a fantastic visit. My co-worker can second the old fashioneds! Staff was super friendly and service was attentive. Clearly there are locals and regulars coming in that know each other by name, but being out-of-towners we were still treated the same and welcomed. We sat at the bar (always my preference), but there is plenty of restaurant seating if you come here with a group or with your family. They have a decent beer selection on tap, and the menu can cover pretty much all appetites. I ordered the veggie burger, which was somewhat generic but nevertheless tasty and I ate the whole thing. Overall, I'd say the food here is good - maybe nothing crazy unique, but good, especially with the somewhat limited options in the area if you want to stay away from chains and fast food. I will absolutely be back for another dinner and continue to try out options on the menu. I'd really love to do the fish fry if I'm ever here on a Friday night. But, who needs dinner when you have dessert?! OMG I'd seen some photos of their desserts online, and even though I'm not usually a dessert person, these photos drove me here that night! Wow. The Brandy Alexander is absolutely incredible. It's large but my co-worker and I each ordered our own (and finished it completely). Anyone can make a Brandy Alexander you sip from a cup... but this was like a soft serve goblet of ice cream with the booze mixed in throughout. The BEST. I will be back here every time I'm in the area just for this (and then good food and beer is always a nice add-on).

The NEWLY REMODELED McDonalds in Sparta WI...ROCKS!!! It is so cool! They got rid of everything…read morenasty like that huge old playroom and gutted the whole place inside And outside and its the New Coolest Tech Friendly McDonalds EVER! You order Off a large touch friendly screen WHEN YOU WANT AND for EVERYONE YOU WANT - and then you go relax in very comfortable booths or high style counter stools or "friends fun round tables" with lots of room for your after school perps or your whole football team. They have an interactive CREATE BOARD for the little ones or the big ones. The high ceilings - favorable lighting, corner areas for privacy and extra large tinted windows everywhere makes it feel like you are in a very new cool environment..its fun or its just nice and relaxing. FREE WIFI n CLEAN Bathrooms help make it nice too. Now, if this particular location can improve the freshness and quality of the McDonalds located in Onalaska and The Dells..then IT WILL BE THE NEW KING of all my fav locations! Great job everybody!!

Me the the kidos wanted a quick and easy meal I walked up the the counter and asked for 2 happy…read moremeals and a Mc Chicken the person who took our order looked like they haven't slept in days After waiting a few hours my kid Evan went to take a bite of his burger and felt something cold on his teeth I opened the burger and all I see is a whole ass frozen patty I walked up to the counter and asked to speak to the manager after waiting and few minutes the manager walked up to the counter and I told him what happened and he told us he couldn't have cared less because they are short on staff my ass I saw 10 people working in the back Will never come again
