This was the first time that I went into this establishment. I was met with a hardy hello, and what can we get you? So refreshing to have such a friendly greeting. I told her I was new to the area and it's the first time I was here. She said welcome! let me get you some menus and what will you be drinking? In no time at all, there it was. Hot and oh so good. Great job to all staff and Cooks. The restaurant as a whole was clean neat and tidy just as the restrooms were as well. Awesome job everyone 👏

Stopped here for fish (based on reviews) and it did not disappoint! That was some of the best “Friday Night Wisco Fish” that we’ve had in a long time…and we travel a decent amount. As of today, this will be the new place to beat. What a pleasant surprise.
The establishment was also fine, traditional sports bar vibes and the service was good as well.

This place is your regular neighborhood bar. Sort of like a Cheers. You get great bar food here. There's nothing fancy there. It's just a nice place for good comfort food. If you want a beer or an old fashioned or a soda you have it here. We had good service and the waitress was very nice. It is a down to earth kind of place.

The ONLY place I can count on to eat a cheeseburger, not a meatloaf sandwich with cheese. If you're looking for a burger with the perfect blend of meat, cheese, and condiments, this is the place for you! Nothing fancy, just good food at a great price served by staff who obviously love what they do! Highly recommend!

Wisconsin corner bar. Decent bar food, not much for healthy eating. Egg breakfasts come with meat. Most everything else is burgers or deep fried. You can get a fish or perch sandwich. Nice tidy place that makes the mistake of putting out political signs (NOT a good idea for a business). Folks that work here are pleasant. Can't say the same for some of the clientele. Close enough to walk to. Uphill on the way home. I come here for a beer and greasy, but tasty snack coming back from my walk.

The pros:
The food wasn't too bad for the price.
The cons:
The parking lot is too small.
The building seems smaller.
They are understaffed (like everywhere in the country) and it showed.
Extra:
Although i saw the pictures online, I was surprised that it was a bar instead of just a restaurant.
There is a place in Appleton, WI called JD's that has similar prices and food but is just a restaurant.
As such, they have a larger eating area but people are lined up through the drive through every day they are open.
I have a feeling it's too late to change and the change may not matter at this point but it seemed like people were enjoying the company of each other and the food over the bar itself.
There was clearly zero problem packing the place, it's just not for me.
Check it out once to make your own observations. These are just mine.

We had the Blue Gill fish single plate each.. Their were 6 generous pieces of fish, fries (though you could substitute their homemade potato salad, in place of fries) It also came with Coleslaw, a piece of rye bread buttered an tarter sauce.. The fish was excellent along with everything else, very filling, satisfying certainly worth it!! Our Server was super nice, friendly and attentive! I would definitely go back again, an highly recommend. .. ; ))..

They have a fish special on Fridays so we decided to try it took our order right away. Took over a hour to actually get food, waitress was very nice and after already waiting twenty minutes did tell us they were backed up and it would probably be another 30 mins. The fish was not very good had lots of little bones in.
