Our party of 3 sat there for 7-10 minutes with no service. Fast forward, the bartender proceeded to give IMMENSE amounts of attitude. She gave multiple dirty looks, while treating us as we were not welcome(all while ignoring us). We collectively ordered a round of espresso martinis (which previously was ordered and received a month-ish ago) and apparently that day they "don't have it on the menu". HOG was one of my favorite bars, prior to this horrid experience, I would always recommend HOG to visitors. Its ambience, location, prices and welcoming atmosphere were unmatched. However, if I walked in and saw that bartender, I would immediately leave.

If you go during a busy time and sit at a table, service can be a little slow and the last time we were there my friend had to remind the server several times about her drink order. It's a busy place, I get it but worth mentioning. They have a neat little seating area by a fireplace which is a good place to snag. There's also a side room that is good for groups and probably can be reserved. There's a nice outdoor patio too (closed in winter). I really like the Shorewood location because they have an awesome back patio. Check it out!

Drinks are affordable. The bartender was a lovely older woman with kind eyes and a big German Shepherd colleague. The outside space is adorable, although be warned, the lattice cover over the patio screams and creaks like it has been possessed. Even though this feels like a hidden gem, the bar drew constant visitors even early on a Saturday evening. One challenge - parking in the area is extremely limited.

But finally a friend brought me in for a drink. Very cozy bar so I usually sit out among the wild collection of dark wood tables and chairs. There is so much antique, curious, and fascinating furniture, signs, vintage decor to observe and just immerse yourself in the surprise discovery of this collection in a pub! There is usually one bartender working, but they are always friendly, quick to take your order, and friendly. This place is an adventure of a bar in the best possible way!

They have an AMAZING back patio which is just a wonderful spot during the long winters of Wisconsin. Highly recommend checking that out. I was honestly quite surprised by how large of an area as well as by the unique decor. I don't believe they serve food. Or I haven't seen a food menu or anything brought out. But there are so many restaurants nearby to order from or swing by. All in all a standout neighborhood bar on the East Side!

In what seems like a myriad of townie bars, Brewed Omen is a diamond in the rough! I'm so glad that downtown Hartford is upgrading with places like this! As you descend the entry stairs, you are greeted with a glowing red sign that marks the spot and sets the classy, yet devilish theme of the brewpub. The space itself was cozy, yet cool with exposed brick and ambiant finishes. Plenty of different style seating...couches, high tops, a patio, and bartop. Service was great during our entire stay! The beer menu was very diverse, and after chatting with the bartender, is constantly changing! In a smalltown world of Bud Light and Miller Lite, I was excited to find some unique craft beers! Priced appropriately as well! We didn't get any food but the pretzel looked yummy and massive! We can't wait to make this a regular spot on our few trips home to see family each year!

They have a great patio on the river, so I would definitely love to check this place out next time we're in town and there's not an event going on.

Frankly, I'm embarrassed that I've never given them a review before now. Haddock, in my opinion, is more elevated than the cod served elsewhere and extra pieces can be added for a reasonable price. The panko breading they use is such a nice contrast to the beer batter at so many other restaurants. The seasoned fries have rotated over the years between shoe string and waffle, but always come with a good amount and are nice and crispy. The dining area isn't massive, but there's rarely ever a wait, which is a huge plus on a Friday night. Whenever I see a post in the local foodie group I'm in on social media asking for the best fish fry in the area, Bubs is always the one I recommend.
