11 Best Pubs in Eau Claire

“We always have a good time with the crew at Dooley’s.“

“Went to a show Saturday night that benefitted NAMI of the Chippewa Valley. They had a nice space for the amazing bands to perform. It was clean, staff kept up with the crowd, and the bartenders worked their asses off. Great place. Non-judgemental patrons, no fights lol, and everyone was real cool.“

“The staff is really helpful, friendly and accommodating. They have a great selection of beers, and the selection of meats and cheeses seems to be rotating.“

“Excellent food and great service!“

“What a classic! Our bartender was the best I’ve ever had (woman in her thirties with Princess Leia buns on the back of her head). She is fast, fun and filled us in on the Water Street developments and all the other questions we threw at her. We had a blast. Thank you!“

“Amazing burgers and great atmosphere.... 10 thumbs up...“

“I like this place a lot. The only problem I have and that's my own personal problem is that I do not like water street or the downtown barstow area at all. Mainly because of parking, there are many places. I would love to go to on water st and Barstow area But I am not gonna waste my time trying to find a place to park. It's not worth it to me, but ok, the food was really good. It's a really nice place the service was really good and fast. Nothing bad to say good food good service good atmosphere I liked it alot“

“Pickle has turned me into the stand-up college graduate that I am. School didn’t do anything for me, the pickle did. I want to go get married here. I want to give birth here. I want to raise my children in this bar. Pickle is life.

Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly.“

“It was our first time at Sammy’s. Hubby and I wanted something quick and simple and affordable. I had always wanted to stop for the salad buffet. We ordered the lunch special which is the personal pizza and salad bar. The salad bar was good but if I had my way, I wish it had greens and not shredded iceberg. I’d pay a dollar or two more for that. 😂 But it was still good and fresh. The waitress was SUUUUPPPEERR friendly. I asked her recommendation for pizza and she said the primo which is what I ordered. It did not disappoint! What I noticed immediately that it was REAL sausage chunks. Not the cheap pellets you sometimes see. Also I saw that there was sausage evenly distributed to ensure you get a piece of meat at every bite. Most places don’t do that and it drives me nuts. The crust was thin and crunchy which I loved. There was a good sauce to cheese ratio. If you want something affordable, stop at this great mom n pop restaurant. They even have take home frozen pizzas. No cardboard pizzas here. We will be regular customers when we crave pizza. Yumm!“

“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.“

“Love going here. Environment is very nice! The bartenders are very friendly“
