We ordered the jalapeño poppers which were frozen in the middle, and a burger that was watery. Watched as the older female waitress sat in the corner on her phone, and tried to walk away immediately after checking on the table when we wanted to order drinks. Terrible service, poor food. The bartender seemed like a nice kid but we won't be back. read more

Got the PB and J burger and it was great! The fries had an odd plastic-y texture but i still ate them all lol. Got cream cheese wontons for the table and they were good too! We were a table of 6 and got seated right away read more

Second time here, loved the CPR burger the first, and tried the farm house burger this time which had bacon, fried egg and onions. It was very good, bacon was thin and crispy, not a lot of onions but overall flavor was good, solid burger. And I don't like pickles but the fried pickles were something I'd get every time, cheese curds also decent. Great spot for a lunch, friendly service as well. read more

By far the best burgers in the Ozaukee area. It is a small town bar feel with a small dining room. The food is great. My favorite is the Skippy Burger with onion rings. The food is usually quick which is great too. read more

We've heard this place was good, so we had to try it for ourselves. We had our puppy, so we ate outside. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Our server was wonderful and very attentive. I had the Wedge salad and the CPR platter and really enjoyed it. My wife had the Hot Dam Chicken, which she loved and said she'd order again. We both loved the fantastic fries. We will be coming back, and we highly recommend it Update: We returned and loved the service and food as much or more than the first visit. . read more

Stopped in tonight for dinner. We were seated right away (Not too busy)!!! Waited over TEN MINUTES, no welcome, no waiter, not even any water. We walked out. Went to Cafe Hollander instead. Seated, ordered and got our food within the same TEN MINUTES!!! read more

The fried cheese curds and fries were deslish! Our burgers were okay. They were supposed to be medium. Both well done. My burger was also so bland. There was no Bourbon flavor anywhere. Desert was also okay. Nothing spectacular. Live music was starting while we were there and the bar was packed when we left. read more

Classic Wisconsin dive bar, burger joint. Food alone would allow this place to be a spot to recommend to friends. Zero effort by ownership to make customers feel welcomed and appreciated. Blatant lack of awareness to customer service opportunities & basic Wisconsin hospitality. Where most "midwestern nice" bars welcome regulars, this bar almost leans into an abrasive, arrogant touch. read more

Wait staff was very kind! We started with fried pickles and both got a juicy cheeseburger. Everything was very good. Options to sit inside, at the bar, or on their outside patio area (beautiful view of the river). read more

A very nice clean bar restaurant with a local feel. The burger menu offers a variety of options which make it tough choice although I went with the double "Better Mac" which is a much improved version of the Big Mac that we are all familiar with. The service was terrific and I will certainly be back. read more

Skippys skippys skippys... doesn't only have the best burgers in Ozaukee County but also has some dope azz amazing chicken sandwiches!!! Holy bleep these kick. If I'm not getting their famous burgers I'm getting their Nashville hot chicken Sammy. Today I got their special habanero chicken sandwich which was super dope. We love this place. Best place for a hangover food. Good drinks, good service. Sports bar you'll love it read more

This place is awful, terrible customer service, food is very mediocre at best. The owners seem like really horrible people to work for and the guy who I assume is an owner or son of the owners wife is a real entitled Karen who should rethink her life. My order was delayed because she needed priority over someone who had been waiting 30+ minutes prior to her "glorious" arrival. I'd recommend to stay away. read more

Went for a Friday fish fry. Waited for over an hour for our food to be served. Not even one apology or explanation from the wait staff. read more

Come hang out! The bartending owner serves and speaks at a brisk pace and provides strong positive affirmations! The burgers come medium or well done for our safety. The meat at Skippy's is a beautifully personalized blend that calls forth supple buttery steaks. Be sure to order more than one patty on your's to savor the grass-fed beef! The music is too loud and the bathrooms need remodeling, but it's a small town burger bar with outdoor seating and super cool specials that shares the colorful and eclectic taste of Mequon - especially in how haravati cheese is featured! Very much appreciated! Thank you for the quick and skippy service, and for being generous in the customizable options! read more

Skippy's Burger Bar - a porsche cayense parked in a parking lot - Burgers Near Me - Thiensville, Wisconsin

Can't say enough about this burger bar!! I rated it before and thought it was good. I'm now living in this community and love this place even more. Thank goodness my service dog doesn't mind walking about 3 miles to get here. It's a great walking community so I get a walk as a bonus. Anyway, the burgers here are ridiculously good! Today, I found out they have $1.00 Tuesday. Oh goodness, why must I be tortured by the beefy goodness of Skippy's burgers? I'm not kidding! Get over here, $1.00 or not, you will not be sorry! They should just put an angel on the sign and let you know you're entering burger heaven! read more

one of my favorite burgers in the greater Milwaukee area. low key atmosphere, fantastic place to show up for a couple beers & get a great bar food meal. staff is always very friendly. LOVEEEE the farmhouse on pretzel bun with chipotle mayo. you also need the sour cream and chive fries. worth the drive to go check out! read more

Went to Skippy's today for lunch . Ordered a crispy chicken wrap . The food came promptly and the waitress was nice . The wrap used however was stale and leathery. I sent my food back . The waitress asked if I would like another and I said no thank you my appetite was ruined . The bill came and I had assumed my food would have been removed from the bill but it was not . I flagged the waitress over and she went back and talked to whomever was in charge and they said all they could do was give me 25% off of my bill because I ate some of the French fries . I told her after I tipped her $20 to tell her boss I don't need their lousy 25% off and I paid the entire bill and I will never be back there again . And that includes the other people that were at my table . I thought that was so crappy to serve me substandard food and then say well you ate some of the fries that negates the whole Bad Sandwich . I can't say that I am a regular at this place but I can say that I've been there at least 10 times . But yeah that ship has sailed because of a really crappy manager or owner or whoever it was and the bad food . read more

**Visit 28 Oct 22** Finally had a meal here after 4 years of talking about it and it was worth the wait with today's visit. This building has historical value in Thiensville, as I take it, the building has been part of the community since 1855, if the provided information is correct (related by Uncle Google). Our visit was for both of to try one of their specialty burgers; however the Fish fry smelled delicious and with the nudge of the bartender/server, I just had to order the dish. The pictures shown of the fish fry, hopefully shows the amount of food you receive for about $13, and it is well worth it. The fish was not greasy, even to the last filet, nor was it fishy in taste or smell. I am not usually a fan of coleslaw, but this was pretty darn good. The fries are hand cut and again, not greasy, but could be a little crunchier. My wife had the Cowboy burger, "well done" of course, not my preference but she said it was still nice and moist with a great flavor. If your don't voice your opinion on the doneness of the burger, it will be a juicy medium with no pink, sounds delicious! We will definitely be back in the next few weeks, as it is a 20 minute drive to Skippy's, but worth the drive. Check out Skippy's as soon as you can! read more

Burgers are delicious! Topping were fresh, buns perfectly glistening and cheese melted on a 1/3 pound seasoned patty. Tots and onion rings were also top notch. Finalist for best burger in the state for a reason. Staff was great as well. read more

Awesome corner bar. Good beer selection (many on tap). Best burgers in town. Specials and fish fries on Friday.

Skippy's I wanted to love you for your name and great prices but alas I couldn't gloss over the service issues. For 4 bucks a bacon cheeseburger and fries on a Saturday is an amazing deal but the service was horrid. Why a 3 star review vs. something less? As stated earlier good pricing and also decent food so that upgrades from a two star to a three star review. We waited forever to order and to get our bill so thumbs down. Amp up the service and we might be back........... read more

Delicious burger! Juicy without being greasy. Ordered the mushroom swiss burger as a double. Often, this means a messy burger, but this was just right. Also, enjoyed their log cabin tots with cheese, bacon, onion and maple mayo. What a treat! The sour cream and chive fries were a wonderful surprise because they were seasoned wedges with dipping sauce. Ours was a carry-out order, but would like to visit again. Cool old bar and dining room with a patio for outside dining. Family friendly read more

Delicious. Love the place. Great burger and good beer. Will be back. Also enjoyed a Bloody Mary.

We waited over an hour for 3 burgers...and it wasn't even busy when we got there! The fried pickles were nothing but breading, the burgers were small and dried out, and they charged extra for any toppings other than dressing in the wedge salad! It was a complete waste of $60! read more

Skippy's is the best of two worlds. You walk in and it is the town's watering hole where everyone knows each other and people can play pool or buy a pack of smokes from the bartender. On the other hand, once you lay eyes on their stunning burger lineup you will question if this dive can really muster the flavor their menu seems to boast. Sit on their leather couch in a nook in back or on the patio-ware outside while enjoying the water flow over the Thiensville dam as you ponder what griddle-fried burger you want to enjoy. They have burgers from the standbys to the artistic. My first Skippy's burger was the Better Mac which turns the Big Mac into a pub burger. I was oohing and aahing between each bite (just ask my wife!). This place is a real asset to our community. Love it! read more

Slow slow service came in with some friends about 6 of us we tried to wave down the person working and he never grabbed our orders but took others orders even though we where waiting for 15-20 min so we left I'd say really poor service read more

Great Place beautiful small town took a few college kids there for dinner they chose and it was a good burger nice place

I have driven past this location a few times and recognized the building as a bar I used to frequent; I finally decided to try out the new ownership. The establishment is a beautiful location across the street from the river. There is a decent parking lot that I don't imagine gets too full and plenty of street parking. We brought the dogs over dinner hour. We sat outside where there were plenty of tables. With it being sunny, we chose a table with an umbrella. The only umbrella tables were connected to another table, making them six-tops. When the server came over we explained that we wanted a table with shade. He was concerned that the other server would be upset about our placement so I explained that we didn't want to create an issue and offered to move. He said something to the effect of "if it's all the same to you, could you go to this table?" and gestured to a table without an umbrella and not shaded. It was not the same but we loved anyway. I didn't know if there was tension between the other server or if he was new, either way I didn't want to be a problem. The vibe was laid back burger bar with a nice drink selection and creative burger options. I had a Tito's press in the tiniest glass. The server initially asked if I want a double, which I didn't. After I saw the glass, I realized that a "double" is a "large." The next round I ordered a double and was given a bigger cup. Service was pretty slow but I know it's hard to find work right now. For a burger bar, the parties were thin and there was no option on doneness. The burger was good nonetheless. If you're looking for a place with many burger options, I recommend you try them out! read more

I am so glad curbside pick up brought us to this spot! My husband was craving a quarantine burger so we decided to try this out. They have a long list of burgers to choose from, and the best part for me (a non burger person) is you can sub a veggie patty in any of them for no additional charge. He had the horsey melt and already wants another one. I got the guac veggie burger which was amazing!!! The veggie patty was delicious. My side of tots were your typical tots. He had the sour cream and chive "fries" which weren't fries but chunks of potato-still good just not fries! We shared a side of onion rings (because quarantine....) which were amazing! We will definitely be coming back here and would highly suggest this spot for some bar food. Friendly staff both taking my telephone order and dropping my food in the trunk, contactless! read more

We absolutely love Skippy's . Great burgers, some awesome burger specials, and delicious desserts. The staff and service is always fantastic, and if you eat at the bar, Alex is about the nicest and friendliest bartender we've ever encountered . He even remembered my girfriends order from several weeks earlier. Great casual atmosphere, delicious food, and exemplary staff. What more could you ask for read more

My wife and I like to take the trip out to Thiensville for Skippys and its always worth the trip. Skippys is my wife's favorite burger place and definitely on my top list for burger joints. The appetizers are all pretty good, I'd have to say that my favorite would be the jalapeño cream cheese wantons. As for the Burgers I like to order The Better Mac, skpiiys version of a big Mac. It is my and my wife's favorite burger on the menu and could be yours also if you give it a try. Skippys is located in a cute area of theinsville near the river and dam, so you can get yourself a big delicious burger and than go take a nice scenic walk to burn it off. 5 stars, keep making them burgers! read more

Best burger in town hands down. However Skippy, you've let me down twice in a row now.. Was in town for work and wanted the best burger in town.. Come to find, you were out of town!! UNREAL. Update your hours/status on google big guy. You're killin me! read more

The food was great and the restaurant has a neighborhood feel. My son wanted a good cheeseburger and boy did we find one. We will be back.

Classic bar food in a fun atmosphere! Hit up Skippy's for a Sunday Packer Game where they have a hot buffet.

Skip-it! Waited an hour for our food while the kitchen prioritized to go orders. Not the waitstaff nor manager came by to tell us until the food was ready, and yet only had half our order. Burnt fries and my husbands burger was the same size as my kids burgers. The bun was larger than the $10 patty. Really looked forward to coming here as we've heard good things but were sorely disappointed. Fish fry was good but that's about it! read more

During this crazy time it's nice to find a place that offers dine in. The girlfriend and I sat at the bar (each pair of seats distanced apart) nice selection of tap beer. we started with the chips and dip(pretty standard) but good. I orded the old 57 and she had the melt both with tater tots. both of our sandwiches were a perfect size for the low price they offer $9. staff was amazingly friendly and engaged us in banter which is fun but also being able to have our own convo. The place was clean and well maintained. will return to try a few other things. read more

I've had three experiences at Skippys and two out of three were horrible. The 2nd time was slow service because of a new bartender but the 3rd and worst service was for unknown reasons. My friend and I were kicked out after two drinks after working 12 hours. Got off of work and went to relax and clearly it was unwanted. We came back later to try again and saw all the same patrons still drinking and taking shots with no worries. We were denied. I asked skippy, the owner for an explanation and he was drunk with no answers for me. Very displeased with the service as a new community member of the mequon area. Honestly disgusted because this is one of the only close places for me to go and relax and now I feel completely disrespected and unwelcome. read more

This bar has some good beers on tap as it has a good vibe, but I've had better experiences with bartenders. As a former bartender I know how important it is to be safe with your customers, but my friend spilled ice on accident and was cut off because of it. Apparently mistakes don't happen. read more
