13 Best Bars near Janesville

“A wonderful experience, I came by for some drinks with my friend and had a great time. The atmosphere was lively, I walked in a little tired and left rejuvenated. To top it all off, Wyatt was one hilarious bartender. I will surely return again.“

“The food was well prepared and flavorful. The pulled pork wrap had a ton of perfectly smoked pulled pork. The chicken and waffles were really tasty, with perfectly cooked chicken.Bourbon flights were tasty, and the legendary Manhattan was really well done.“

“There’s a gentleman bartending here by the name of Cole. Always makes well proportioned beverages and holds a great conversation. Good looking guy too. I could not recommended a better place to enjoy a drink and music. The staff always does a great job and it makes for a fun night every time!“

“Bar Winslow on Main St. is my go-to spot – it's the VIP lounge for my taste buds. The cocktails are like wizards concocting magic potions, and the bartenders, Nate, Adam, Renee, and Savannah, are the Hogwarts masters. Forget about Platform 9¾; I'll be at Bar Winslow, sipping enchantment from a glass! ?✨Don't worry, professor snape is not their portions teacher.“

“I had the reuben with sweet potato fries. Probably the best reuben I’ve had in a very long time. Same with the sweet potato fries. Hands down the best I’ve had yet.Kid-friendliness: There’s quarter machines for toys and a claw machine to take your money and keep the kids entertained.“

“I can say with confidence that this place is always a vibe. For college hill it’s nice, especially if you like the more indie/alternative scene. With live music and events, partnerships with local artists/food trucks (la Calle), there’s always something interesting happening down here. Admittedly the regular crowd on slower nights can feel a bit odd, but overall this is a good place to relax and enjoy a cheap Hamm’s.Parking: Parking can be tight on a busy night, but the hill is pretty walkable.“

“Best little cocktail bar with a great staff, TouchTunes jukebox and newly remodeled interior. Friendly locals who like to have fun…super warm and welcoming place!!! Limited menu but the food was delicious and homemade when we popped in!!!“

“This was the first time I visited this bar and I was pleasantly surprised. Even though it is a relatively newer business, I expected more of an old-time environment and selection of beers. They have a great selection of micro-brewery beers, as well as some popular commercial beers on tap. The bar stools are cushioned and have back rests. There are cozy booths along the wall opposite the bar. The place was very clean. Apparently it is also a popular place for the local darts aficionados.“

“Ate here first time about a week ago sort of bar side feel when you first walk in . They do have large back room though with tables. I had chicken strips with fries and they gave 3 really large strips so good portions. My son had a burger and enjoy his also. Happy hour was told is 4 to 7 and they had a good selection. Our server was great also fast service. I will return here again.“

“If you find yourself passing through Waverly, Iowa, and you think you need to wet your whistle, then you should definitely stop by The Pour House! From the pink Cadillac on the wall to the small town neighborhood bar feel, this place hits just right. The barkeeps are attentive and polite, and the people there are exactly what you might expect. Nice job, will be back!“

“Are there nicer bars in town? Sure. Are there better bars in town? No way.This is a great bar with a great atmosphere. It's dimly lit, usually reasonably quiet (as bars go), and a little trashy (but in a good way). On the main floor you'll find the bar, a shuffleboard table, darts, jukebox, a couple tables to sit at, and good people. This bar has a lot of traditions and respect for its long time patrons. They often run contests for their guests like the big March Madness shot bracket, measured each night when two shots compete for orders. The second level sports a free pool table on one side, and a lounge area with leather couches on the other side.The bartenders are always friendly and prompt, and there is good conversation to be had with other patrons.OK beer selection, lots of fruity and cider options, but also a good array of heavy beers. I enjoyed a hazy Sierra Nevada IPA and then several Odell 90 Shillings.My friends and I also appreciated the relatively private area for smoking out back.“

“Giving the restaurant at least 2 and sometimes 3 tries. Their hamburgers are really good. 1st time there, they were packed so service was slow. 2 nd time was carry out. Not bad but I still had to wait. 3rd time would have gotten 5 stars. 4th time.. well.. not so much. Medium rare steak was orders and rare, very rare is what I got. Potato wasn't perfect but- baked. Their slaw is really good as are their onion rings and french fries. Will be going back to try their fish fry.“
