Been there for beers and cocktails only. Love the fact that one can bring their dog for the experience.

Attended Muskellounge's Three Dots & A Dash collab. Drinks were spectacular, and the kitchen staff were on fire. We ordered a weekly special (burger/cheesesteak blend) and the chicken tender basket. 10/10 fantastic. I would strongly recommend checking this place out if you haven't yet.

I was originally a *1 Star* review because the bartenders here were pretentious and unpleasant. It appears those days have passed, as the new staff seem quite the opposite. Great spot with good selection of rotating craft beers. Dog friendly!

Bar is good. Food is mediocre at best. Lighting is good. Overall they've done a fine job turning a strip mall location into a decent bar. Good selection of beer and drinks. Some fun classic bar games. Food was pretty bad and felt like an afterthought. Fine if you need something to soak up the booze but certainly not a reason to go there. Service was friendly and efficient.

What bar doesn’t have a lite beer!? I think the lounge is a bit overrated……
So very disappointingly I had a bad experience. I arrived, ordered a drink, and watched my bartender lean for 10 minutes. I think she realized she forgot about me but it had been 20 minutes at this point. Excellent cocktail menu, hopefully the service improves!

Great local watering hole. It’s always busy so be prepared for that! Their cocktail selection is great. They also have ping pong, shuffle board and darts.

Awesome atmosphere and a PHENOMENAL selection of beers and very interesting wall of cocktails. Had a peanutbutter and jelly cocktail and was then bitten by the Cobra Fang! Did not order food, however it was also recommended by a friend for that.

As a 40 something guy from deep in the Northwoods of Wisconsin who's trying to make the most of my time in Madison I've found the Muskellunge to be a nice hangout every now and then. I've also had way more than my fair share of good times with booze and really dig that they have rather stellar selection of NA beer. Pair it up with one of their local sourced hot soft pretzels or a pair of Landjagers this place is a real treat! For those who indulge in the good stuff it's got well stocked bar too...The Muskellunge also has great staff that welcomes everyone. I really appreciated that the bartenders have even recommended other NA brews that they carry! While the ambiance is gives off a great vibe it's not a quaint little beer hall. If you go, don't be surprised that it's the size of your typical bar in the city- it can be crowded and at times noisy. Lots of cool things to do like shuffle board, ping-pong, darts, and pull tabs! It would be awesome if they had a couple Spooky machines to feed though...Not a bad stop solo ,but is a great location to meetup with friends. Bottom line the Muskellunge is a winner!
