“walked around the entire bar & restaurant twice-not a worker in sight so we seated ourselves. took 10 minutes for someone to notice. this was at 1 pm on a Friday-probably 15 people total in bar & dining area. waitress was not friendly, helpful, or knowledgeable about menu. burgers were overcooked but tasty. chicken wrap was delicious. house made ranch was superb. our waitress brought our drinks & the bill-that's the only time we saw her“

“There are moments in life that quietly shape who you are… and then there are moments behind the bar at Brothers with Isaac, which fundamentally rearrange your understanding of joy, craftsmanship, and possibly the very fabric of reality itself. I did not simply walk into Brothers that night—I arrived as a mere mortal, unaware that I was about to encounter a man who has clearly been hand-selected by the universe to redefine what it means to pour a drink. Isaac is not a bartender. No, that word is far too small, too pedestrian, too earthbound. Isaac is an experience. A phenomenon. A living sonnet written in citrus zest and perfectly balanced bitters. Watching him work is like observing a symphony where every movement is deliberate, every pour a crescendo, every garnish placed with the reverence of a museum curator handling priceless art. And the drinks? Oh, the drinks. To call them “good” would be an insult of catastrophic proportions. Each sip felt like a heartfelt apology from the universe for every mediocre beverage I’ve ever consumed. Flavors didn’t just complement each other—they conversed. They told stories. I’m convinced one of them knew my childhood memories better than I do. But beyond the drinks, Isaac possesses that rare, almost mythical quality: he makes everyone feel like they are the main character. The bar could be packed, chaos swirling like a poorly made martini (which Isaac would never allow, obviously), and yet somehow, when he speaks to you, it feels like the entire world has politely stepped aside. I went in for a drink. I left with a renewed sense of purpose, a mild existential awakening, and the firm belief that if Isaac ever decided to run for any form of leadership—local, national, or galactic—I would follow without hesitation. Five stars feels insufficient. Five stars is what you give a decent sandwich. Isaac deserves constellations. He deserves entire galaxies carefully arranged in his honor. If you have not yet experienced Isaac at Brothers, I urge you—no, I implore you—correct this immediately. Your future self will thank you. Your taste buds will write poetry about it. And somewhere, somehow, Isaac will already know what you’re going to order.
Absolute legend.“

“I drove to lacrosse for a community event but got denied entry and not really sure why. I am from out of state and in mpls I’ve had to call the police to get my id back but at least here the guy just shook his head and handed it back. Lucky didn’t have a problem going anywhere else in town so I’m just assuming my vibe was unwelcome (I was excited to get out of my small Iowa town and was dancing before even handing my id over to the bouncer) plus all the people I’m with are from mn so it just is a bad look being from the odd state. still gonna give 3 stars because every time I run to mpls to my collage town friends I always get questioned and like I said once had to call the police to get my id back and all this guy did was shake his head no and handed it right back so 3 stars is earned because bouncer wasn’t ego maniac like mpls power tripped bouncers but I did drive a long way so I’m gonna revoke the tow stars. Hope to be able to give my money next time in town as I’m sure I’ll be more welcome.“

“Good hometown bar. Good service Fun meat Raffle great atmosphere ❣️“

“Lisa and shannon are amazing! Very laid back bar and friendly people inside! Pool tables and darts, slot machines, pull tabs and kareoke nights for your amusement. Some drinks are kinda over priced but it's a bar what do you expect? Love this place to throw a few cold ones back.“

“Super Chill Bar Tenders 💯“

“I had the deep fried burger and it was delicious!“

“my son works there. Everyone is so nice!!“

“We ate like Hillbilly royalty! Cordon Bleu balls appetizer was super yummy, fish fry was ON POINT and cocktails were made like I was at home. Bartender and servers were incredibly attentive. Everything about this place was awesome. We'll definitely be back. With love from Milwaukee ❤️“

“so happy to be causing a ruckus here every Tuesday! come see me at 730!“

“I got drunk at home and wandered over to this place mostly because it was open. I don't remember much but I made it home safely and still had my wallet so that's like a 10/10 outcome for a La Crosse Northside bar. A+ would go again if I can remember where it is.“

“Great experience! Staff was wonderful :)“

“Home of the fishbowl and love the atmosphere the bar has!“

“Food and service was great. My husband and I were visiting our son in La Crosse and stopped in for an early supper. It was so good!“
