“Being from Missouri, we had to stop in! Awesome little tavern! The owner was working and made us feel right at home! Told us the history of the tavern including how it was named. Drinks were great and we had a pizza. Believe me when I say the pizza was YUMMY! If we are up this way again we will definitely stop in! Don’t forget to ask about a Cow Pie, Cherry Pie or Apple Pie shot!“

“Great food, great staff, nice atmosphere!“

“Great burger and a great staff.“

“Excellent sandwiches + coffee and a really nice place to hang out with friends or get some work done. For sandwiches, the ham & cheese, horsey beef, roast beef, and tuna melt are all terrific. However, I really wish they'd do something about the burnt(?) smell--I can't imagine the workers enjoy it, and my clothes always smell really strongly afterwards.“

“Saw Junipour on 7/13 and they shredded!“

“Plaza burgers are the best! The plaza sauce and the pickles are what make them so tasty! A downtown Madison must stop.“

“Great neighborhood bar and grill with lots of great food options. I've been here a number of times and the first thing you notice is the size. It's a big place with lots of fun stuff - Pool, Darts, Foosball, Golden Tee. They have a large bar area too with a great selection of taps and bottles to choose from. The food is delicious. I usually get the burger with cheese curds. Both are amazing. The Chicken Club is one of my favorites too. Recently I tried their chicken wings and WOW - I didn't know what I was missing. Full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The staff is very friendly and lots of fun. Fantastic place to watch Sports too as they have lots of HUGE TVs. Great energy during Packer games. Ask about specials too as they often feature unique food and events.“

“! Not a big menu but the burgers were Great!1st time there! We would eat there again“

“College visit with the daughter and we dined here with friends on Saturday 28th Sept and being originally from the UK, and seeing the fish and chips were haddock (not cod) I immediately had to have them and they were the best fish and chips this side of the “pond” having put up with 12 years of “just ok” fish and chips, these were amazing. Not only were the fish and chips good, but every dish was a winner. I am now praying my daughter gets into the college as I will be a regular here.“

“The Memorial Union/Terrace is such an iconic location in downtown Madison and we are so grateful to have had our wedding there after meeting each other in undergrad. Sam Mack, the event manager we worked with, was so helpful throughout the process and helped us make decisions if we were having trouble deciding something and all his suggestions were spot on. He was extremely communicative, responsive, helpful, and organized. He made planning the wedding a breeze and it was so helpful that so much is done in house that we really didn't need to worry about finding a number of other vendors or coordinating with multiple people. It was also such an affordable venue compared to others we looked at and the vibes are unlike anything you will ever find anywhere else. The venue itself was gorgeous. With the ceremony overlooking the Terrace, the people outside enjoying a nice day with their friends and families were all so excited and supportive of us when we were walking around and you won’t get that at any other venue. We had people at the terrace buy us beer and got such fun and iconic pictures because of it. The terrace crowd erupted in cheering and applause when we kissed at the end of our ceremony and it was such a fun, memorable, and cool memory. The staff were all so helpful and efficient. Dinner was served to everybody as fast as I’ve ever seen at any other wedding I’ve been to. The food was delicious, and from what the other vendors told us, the managers make it so easy for them to get in, get out, and set up/take down. The bar staff were so helpful and kind, and we couldn't be more grateful or appreciative to have gotten married at the Memorial Union. It was the best decision we made, hands down, especially as alumni. We would highly recommend doing your wedding at the union!“

“Good food I had a Turkey sandwich with bacon and chips snd it was delicious. My friend had a taco salad. Very good“

“1st time there tonight. Great service and the steak was phenomenal and the stuffed ravioli was great. Great staff and a good atmosphere. Would recommend highly.“

“The lemon pepper wings were delicious, the baked potato tots were also amazing! Also - the tots were enough for about 4 people. Definitely brought a bunch home. And they have online dart boards for my fellow dart players. Would hang here again.“

“We had our server forget our cheese curds last night. Brought our food out and I mentioned it to her. She immediately apologized and I told her no worries! To my surprise she comp'd the curds even though I hadnt complained. Now THATS service. Impressed with the service, food and tunes. I had the Flying Hound Burger and the only issue was my egg wasnt as runny as I would have liked but guess what? SHIT HAPPENS. Still enjoyed it! :)“

“Great food can’t go wrong with fish tacos“

“They didn’t have the vodka brand that I prefer (popov) and they don’t put enough cola in their Long Island ice teas. Other than that the staff is attractive enough to warrant the 5 star review. John looks much younger than he appears to be. He is helpful despite his obvious mental deficiencies.“

“Wild fun place had a blast performing for the locals. Hope to come back soon“
