Review Visit: November 12th, 2024 The place to go if your stomach is growling for beer and food. 7 hour shift. 1 hour work meeting. 6 hour drive. I was in dire need of beer/food and sleep once I arrived in Eau Claire to hang with my friend Tim for a few days. It was close to 9:30pm when I arrived and our choice of places was pretty limited. Luckily The Growler Guys was still open. Upon entering a completely empty bar, the bartender greeted us and got us up-to-date on their beer offerings and a contest among local breweries they were having. Tim and I tried a few different samples before settling on a drink and some food. The contest intrigued me so I took a flight of the contestants. Tim grabbed a cider and we sat and caught up on life and nerdy things. While I was sipping my samples and Tim was enjoying his cider, our food came out. I got their Pizza Hero sub and Tim got a Calzone. The sub was okay at best. It could've been cooked a bit longer as it came out lukewarm and was floppy. For it being a 'toasted sub', it was lacking the toasting for sure. It wasn't the fullest of flavor either but I wasn't in a time and place to be needy about food. Tim said he enjoyed his calzone but it wasn't anything to rave over. The samples I had ranged from great to not good. I don't remember which ones I got but two of them were cream ales and one of those was a coconut one and that was just not my jam. The lager was decent as well as the other non-cream but overall, not typically beers I would order (aside from the lager). I cast my vote for the lager as I turned in my glasses. Any who, we sat there for about an hour and had the whole place to ourselves. A few people popped in and left but none really stuck around. I really enjoyed the vibe of the place. The bartender was fantastic at entertaining us for the little bit we were at the bar. I am addicted to milkcap pull tabs and he helped fix the machine so I could buy a few and share them with Tim. There is also a giant pile of board games to play if you come here with a group of people. Speaking of that... if I lived in the area, this is definitely a place I would push my friends to come to for hanging out. Plenty of space for drinking and board gaming with 40+ beers on tap. This was definitely a good stop for the night and a good start to a short trip to Eau Claire.

Lots of different beers on tap here and the bartender was very happy to make recommendations and let us taste different brews. So, 5 stars for staff and beer selection! Food options are limited to mostly sandwiches and pizza, although they do come out really fast. There's not much atmosphere or character to the place. I would definitely recommend if you're just looking to have a quick beer or two. It just isn't a place I'd spend a lot of time.

Love this place! Tons of beers on tap. Service very good even when short staffed. Pizza was super good. Fun atmosphere.

Um... pizza with curds and jalapeños on cheese sauce topped with bacon!? Take all my money and calories!

See all

It's great to go with family and friends get together. I had single glass of beer but I saw that many people ordered flights.

Great pizza and selection of beer and other drinks. Very friendly place to kick back - just wish they had a better outdoor place.
