    One of a kind. Very friendly and reasonable prices. Very busy so you need to be patient. Classic bar food. Would go back, for sure.

    First time visiting Mac's Stumble Out Pub. There were 4 of us and when we arrived around 7pm,…read moreFriday evening we were able to get the last available table. The bar is not a big place but it was inviting and friendly. Took a little while before the waitress came over to our table to let us know it would be about an hour wait. We were fine since we could tell by all the cars in the area there wasn't going to be a less crowded. We were given a menu for Friday fish fries which is exactly what we wanted. We all ordered the 3 piece hand breaded cod which was only $11.50! You had a choice of baked potato or fries, Cole slaw or cottage cheese and you got a warm dinner roll with cinnamon butter on the side (regular butter was on the table). They were out of baked potatoes so we each had fries with the Cole slaw. Everything was delicious and you absolutely can't beat the price. We will be back.

    We have a place in Lyndon Station and are always looking for a great Fish fry place on Fridays when…read morewe are up there.Our usual go to is Norm's(always excellent),but we also want to try new places,but try to avoid the Dells itself,as their prices are more just because it's the Dells.We decided fo a few doors down to Mac's Stumble Out,and it was again a great option to Norm's.As we knew,it would be very busy,and it was,almost an hour wait, but it's usually like this everywhere in the Dells in the Summer on Friday, so we stayed(great choice).All four of us ordered the 3 piece Cod,which had multiple side options, we all chose the fries option.We settled in and had a few beverages and caught up while we waited.Luckily,it didn't take the full hour(service was a little slow due to size of the crowd of patrons, but that was to be expected).Our waitress brought out all 4 orders and the fish was crispy and hot(only downside was the fries didn't match the quality of the fish,oh well) and good coleslaw and warm dinner role(with cinnamon butter as an alternative,included. The fish was awesome, some of the best I've had,and needless to say I ate all of it.We also noticed the $price, too,$11.95,very,very reasonable for the Dells area.We now have another great option close by.It was a nice & clean place,and if the rest of the menu is as good as the Fish fry, we'll definitely be back.Again only reason it's not 5 stars was the fries and tougher time getting additional drinks. Stay away from the Dells prices and long long waits,drive a few minutes away to Lyndon Station, it's we'll worth it,and less expensive.

    I came here once with a group a few years ago and remember it being fantastic, both the food and…read morethe staff/service. I was told it was under new-ish ownership, but the place felt exactly the same. We were clearly not locals as we entered as we got a few stares, but were welcomed on in and once again had great service. I was thrilled to be able to drink a Guinness (all beers are bottles or cans, but the selection was a nice variety!) with my dinner. We went on a Friday night so I couldn't avoid doing my usual Friday Fish Fry. We all ordered the fish fry and were not disappointed. Good french fries to accompany it and always a lovely, chill atmosphere. Definitely worth stopping in for lunch or dinner if you're in the area. You won't be disappointed!

    If you think you've had the best fried chicken then maybe you've been here If you would like too…read moresee if you had the best fried chicken then you could put this on your rest stop along the way About 15 minutes off the I-90, 94 at the exit to Camp Douglas, WI then 15 minutes West Chicken is to me, so good that I'll order a 20 piece, about $24.00 I'll make a meal right away, almost too hot right away!!! Of the rest I'll bag and freeze the rest and enjoy for 4-5 more meals So your talking about $4.00 a meal I've put some pice so you might find this country salon in the town of Clifton, WI Amish community surrounds this beautiful part of Wisconsin All tucked in rolling hills

    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).
