We were there for the Christmas market on Saturday. We were sitting at the bar in the back room. I just want you to know the girl that was bartending was so amazing!! Blond, straight hair. She took care of everything!!! She basically was doing it all herself. Great job and Happy Holidays 😁

Had lunch here while shopping at the craft market, too chilly to eat outside by the food trucks. Great boozy coffee and hot chocolate. I had the pulled pork mac burger- best burger Ive ever had! Large burger patty with cheese, pulled pork, mac n cheese , onion straws on a toasted pretzel bun. Yummy seasoned homemade chips as a side. Its an older building, Im sure lots of history and stories. They were busy, good service. Would visit again

We're vacationing in Oconomowac and stopped here twice.
The first time we bellied up to the bar, the patio was closed for lunch. Our waitress/bartender was awesome! She was attentive, friendly and funny. Our kids ordered the Philly Cheesesteak and Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich which were great. I ordered the Cuban and hubby ordered a bacon cheeseburger. Everything was really good. We left full and happy.
The 2nd time we went for dinner, sat on the patio. Our waitress stopped by to say she'll be right with us, and that turned into 15-20 minutes of waiting. It's hot out, we're thirsty, needed water. She was buzzing around all of the other tables, but not ours. We place our orders, mozzarella sticks for an appetizer, kids ordered the same thing as before, hubby ordered a pizza, I did Buffalo wings.
The wonton wrapped cheesesticks were not what we expected. Must be a Wisconsin thing, as I've seen them on a few menus. I'm happy to leave those in Wisconsin, give me Breaded Mozzarella Sticks. The pizza and wings were subpar.
I felt let down on our 2nd visit. Though, I must note that everytime you order something, your waitress has to walk up and down those stairs. She must have the strongest glutes known to mankind!
All in all, a decent place, not our favorite on this trip.

I dined on the patio alone, overlooking Fowler Lake. It was a beautiful evening surrounded by the lakes’s gentle breeze, delicious food and a lot of laughter from families enjoying this restaurant. I made sure to order an appetizer, and two entrĆ©es so I could get a good idea of the restaurant’s service, quality of food, etc. My server was friendly, patient, and overall seem to enjoy her job. It’s always nice to see them smile. I ate a little bit of everything on my plates and took the rest home for my adult children. Food was incredible at the restaurant and it reheated very well!

Good food, great prices and DAILY food and drink specials. Something on the menu for everyone. This is a new find for us. A traditional WI pub, local, inviting and clean. Shout out to Maggie our favorite bartender. This is a very relaxing, comfortable place. They don't rush you in and out, the staff is super friendly.

Great service by our waitress Abby

Worst service I’ve ever seen in my life, would rate 0 stars if possible. We ordered 2 dishes, they gave us one and when we asked the staff for help they led us on for 30 minutes and told us the kitchen was working on it. After repeatedly asking where the 2nd dish was they finally said we don’t have it and to speak with the shift lead. We walked up to the bar where the shift lead immediately started yelling at us, blamed us for the problem, and did nothing to solve the problem.

Sunset drinks on the roof!

Stopped by before a Brewers game with my wife and two teenage daughters for a late lunch. Couldn’t get rooftop seating immediately as it was busy but was offered immediate seating out front along the sidewalk which was still nice. Placed order at bar and food was delivered to our table. Bartender and I believe the owner possibly checked on us. Food was great. Wife had the Philly cheesesteak, daughters had buffalo boneless chicken wings, chicken strips and I had the shrimp tacos. Portion sizes were very good. Recommend this place for bar food and location.

Ordered online. Selected the Etc burger which we have done several times in the past. Burger was made without anything that made it the $22 burger and fries price. Because we added onion and pickle both at no charge they took all the special items off the listed burger. No haystack onions it, no egg, no jalepeno, no bbq sauce. It was a burger with cheese and pickles and onions. We never unselected any of the items from the burger. The receipt does not show we ā€œremovedā€ anything We had no idea this turned in to a build your own burger at the Etc burger price by adding onion and pickles this time. Another burger we ordered came with the wrong cheese ( which is not a big deal except the rest of the problems tonight make it an issue) and one burger requested well done was not even close to being well done. We had to microwave that one but then it was just gross. When we called about the wrong food we were told we unselected the items off the etc burger. We did not. In fact we pulled this burger off previous orders which always came correct. We were told nothing could be done except to remake the food and us to return and pick it up. Which was not an option with their minimum 35-40 min pick up times. More then likely that we will pass on The Etcetera as an option in the future.
