17 Best Bar & Grill near Altoona

“Kind of appears to be a dark place when you enter. Carpet is dirty, tiles on the floor are broken and chipped. Chairs are old.But People seem friendly. The bartender is super friendly and awesome! She remembered us as customers and even remembered a joke that was told to her, even though it had been a long time (3 yrs?) since we were there! She had recommendations for other local businesses. Erin was well accustomed to the clientele and their needs.The beer is cold, the bartender is fun, the food is decent.There's a smoking area which is very nice. The bathrooms are clean and roomy.“

“I loved this restaurant! Location, food, staff was all great. There were so many great menu items to choose from, I had a seriously hard time deciding! Went with the ribs and wasn't disappointed! Will definitely be back when in the area again!“

“Valley Burger has the best burgerd I've ever tasted. there's so much to be said about the limited menu--what they do, they do to perfection! I had the Philly burger....UNBELIEVABLE! Fast and friendly service. Best hidden gem in Eau Claire! 5 stars!!“

“My boyfriend and I came here randomly without really any thought, and the food/experience/service we received was without a doubt, the most caring and customer-service friendly thing we've seen at restauraunts (or anywhere for that matter) nowadays. It's a very calm and cozy place, and the employees are incredibly generous, friendly, and understanding. Even though there were a few mistakes in the order getting placed/prepared, the employees not only owned up to the mistake but went above and beyond/out of their way to fix it despite us not being bothered at all. The food itself is amazing and exactly what you'd hope for a nice small-town bar and grill. It feels like you're at home here.They also got darts and pool!“

“Cockroaches? That last reviewer is full of it - there aren't any cockroaches in Northern Wisconsin. I've eaten there and think the place (and the food) is great - plus a great fun staff and live music! But don't take my word for it, go check it out for yourself.“

“I was so impressed by the staff here! We just left after a very hectic early morning Packer game and I was just so impressed by how amazing the service was! Despite the large crowd they were attentive, fast and so welcoming. It seemed like they all genuinely enjoyed it all when it would have been easy to feel overwhelmed. Plus the food and Bloody Mary’s were delicious! 10/10 would recommend for a game or just a few drinks! Will be back!“

“Our waitress was so attractive and nice. I had the baked and my husband had the breaded. My baked was delicious but neither of us cared for the breaded although the fish had good flavor. Just not a fan of the breading. Did not realize they only serve a very limited menu on Fridays.“

“I always stop here for lunch anytime I get in the area. Brackett Bar never disappoints! Just had a Southwestern crispy Chicken wrap with Fries today and it was delicious! It's worth the cruise or the stop if you're in that neck of the woods!“

“I ordered the fish and shrimp and my kid ordered Onion rings Food wasn't that bad at all.And the bartender was very polite And respectful he had time to come over and talk to us about how good the Experience wasAnd the bar was pretty full of people.“

“Great local bar food. The Packer Backer (2 brat patties with kraut and cheese) is my favorite, the "kid" (21) loves the Black and Blue burger, and my wife loves the pesto grilled cheese. Honestly there are very few places where we all love at least one item on the menu. The waffle fries are always perfectly done, nice and crispy. Though they could time down the amount of salt they use on them just a little bit.“

“Dropped my car keys in front of Mogie’s on my way to another establishment. After about two hours I went to my car and realized I didn’t have my keys:-) Lo and behold I see a sign on my window telling me Mogie’s had them. Thanks to the honest and smart staff there!“

“I worked here almost 20 years ago. While I know many of my favorite customers are long gone, I will always say this is the best job I’ve ever had. Also, I got to eat the best food a starving college student could ever ask for (and I’d still eat there ever day if I could). My friends just moved from Eau Claire to Florida and before that, sent me a pic of their food every time and asked “guess where dinner happened?” PS. Orv Johnson has EVERYTHING on every boss I’ve ever had. Ever in my life.“

“First time visiting. Very comfortable and cozy bar. Megan was the bartender, AND the cook! She was awesome and spunky. Nice sense of humor.He said the peanut butter Thai burger was awesome. Whatever they are putting on their fries is AMAZING! I had the chicken philly! I really liked how the chicken was cooked and all the peppers and mushrooms. Best sandwich I have had in a long time! Definitely will be coming back to try more!“

“We are not from the area, so we stopped in the one time for dinner. It was a usual neighborhood bar that looked to have quite a few regulars. The bartender and cook were both very nice. We had a pizza and it was a better than your average bar pizza. We thought it was good!“

“Food and service was great. Bar tender was super friendly and happy to help decide what to eat. Drinks were cold. Cool establishment. Would love to stop in again. Nice crowd for karaoke. The bacon cheeseburger was delicious. Perfect cooked bacon. Good flavor meat. Bun was fresh and full. Great time!“

“Pizza was delicious, the best we've had in a while! The staff is great from what we've experienced. We can't wait to have the fish dinner...YAY❣️Vegetarian options: We would always like to see some vegetable options on any menu at this pointv we think their menu is still in the developmental stage, but the developments have been positive.“

“The bartender hates the customers if they ask for anything other than rail drinks or beers. But honestly, that is part of the charm. I've been coming here for 20+ years & she's always been there. & her consistency is excellent. The drinks are reasonably priced & tasty.This is definitely a townie bar. If you like that vibe you will 100% enjoy your time here.“
