I play weekly trivia at Rare Bird which is fun, but highly enhanced by the wonderful menu and terrific service. The pub style food is delicious, and features creative weekly specials. I want to shout out our waiter, Tyler. We make sure we sit at his table because he is attentive, knows our drink orders, and even that I prefer a salad with my tacos rather than chips. The food and service are winners, even if we lose at trivia.
Came here with my wife’s family, who hail from Wisconsin. We all came to a consensus that these were the best cheese curds that ever were.
Good beer variety.
Not to mention, the service and ambiance leave you no choice but to unwind and leave wearing a satisfied grin.

Rare Bird doesn’t miss. Went in for a lunch, had a lot of fun, a lot of laughs, food was great, drinks were better, atmosphere was the best. We also had the honor of having Lily take care of us. She was great, attentive, engaging, gave great recommendations, and had a lot of fun with us. She even showed up big in a “bring my drink in an interesting container” challenge.
