The last three times we were at Shopiere, the food was excellent, but the service has declined greatly. One server is rude and acts put out when you ask for something. As of right now, we have no desire to return due to the poor service. This is a shame because the food is excellent.

Food was good, we enjoy going here. But the server we've had the last couple times can't keep up with her tables and isn't very friendly. If you have a question about the menu, don't ask, you'll get eye rolls and snarky answers. We asked about the nightly special and were treated like idiots for not knowing the answer but we had never been there that night of the week.

Wings were burnt and too dry with lack of flavor, had to ask for a refill on my drink when it was sitting there empty for my entire meal, had to wait for items we requested. Server told us she kept forgetting about us. $20 for 12 wings is not worth it

1st time I’ve been to a Friday fish fry that serves Blue Gill (we are from out of state). It was fabulous. We arrived at 4:30 and got a table fast. Even my picky kids found tasty entrees. Reasonable prices. Any time I’m in the area, it’s going to be a stop. Service was top notch -attentive and fast.

Never got waited on, when we said, ma'am, she just looked our way and held up her finger and said "I'll be with in you in a second" But we had already been passes over 3x. So we left.
We also heard good things about Tap, so we decided to go. Its too bad it was not a good experience.

A mainstay for a night out to have good food, conversation, and a view of the former Shopiere Dam. Now gone. I remit was a highlight of my child.

Visited on a Wednesday. I had the grilled fish, my husband had the shrimp. Fish was very dry and tasteless. I really wanted tartar sauce but our wait ataff never came back to check on us. Place was not busy yet, we were there about 430. Not sure why tartar is not served with the fish? We asked if there were any drink specials as most places offer happy hour specials. Apparently, this place does NOT offer any specials because when we asked, we received a very odd look as if we were speaking another language. Sorry, too many other places in the area offering specials. This place needs to up their game.

After staying the night in Chicago, we wanted to grab something to eat on our way home to central Wisconsin. I jumped on Google Maps and looked for something around Beloit and fairly close to the Interstate. This place had awesome reviews, especially for their fish fry. So I set Waze to their location and we arrived right around noon.
We were surprised it wasn't too busy... yet! Our waitress, Tiffany, was very pleasant and answered all our questions about the menu.
I ordered the Bluegill and a cup of their clam chowder, and Christi ordered the Black and Blue Ranch Wrap, minus the mushrooms. The Bluegill was cooked perfectly, with a nice light breading, not greasy at all. The clam chowder was thick and very good! And I loved the tots! Christi really enjoyed the wrap, taking half of it home for lunch the next day.
The food came out quickly and very hot.
Tiffany was awesome. Very attentive and delightful.
By the time we finished our meal, the place was almost completely full.
We will keep The Shopiere Tap on our favorite places to visit when we go to Chicago for our conferences.

My husband and I stopped by for the first time on a Saturday night at the recommendation of a friend. First impressions were great....clean, bright, open space with plenty of seating. Service was fast and friendly. My husband had the prime rib special. His piece was cooked just the way he likes (med-rare). He said it had great flavor and was really tender. He would certainly order it again. I had the brisket sandwich. Great smoke flavor, tender cut, delicious sauce.

We will be adding this spot to our regular rotation. Can't wait to try more of their dishes!

Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon traveling through town. Food was fantastic!
And what we saw go by to other tables left us wanting to go back for more.

Bonus: the ice cream shop across the street.

We'll be back for sure.

We kayaked the Turtle Creek and then met my parents when at got out at Shopiere Tap. We always have good food and good service. We opted to sit outside and they were very accommodating, even offering to move tables & chairs for us if needed. It was a Friday afternoon and we got the fish fry, it was really good!

Stopped with friends after a day of golf, and we're all happy we did. It was a typical Wisconsin small-town tap/tavern, however, this was anything but typical. We hit the perfect night...FISH FRY!!....and they do it right. Our server was exceptional and treated us like we were regulars, and was timely with regard to our drinks, etc..
Now for the food, one word, terrific! We started with fried green beans and they were wonderful. I had the fried cod with slaw and.....potato pancakes, talk about a traditional fish fry. By the way, the cod was perfectly breaded, not greasy, and seasoned perfectly. I will definitely return in the future.
