How we score

The editorial take

A bar and grill whose beverage program leans on daily and themed drink specials rather than a deep static list. Happy hour covers rail drinks and tap beer discounts, Sunday runs an all-day happy hour, and the weekly calendar assigns specific deals to each night. The Wisconsin Old Fashioned, house-made margarita, and Bloody Mary anchor the cocktail side, while the beer list stays focused on cans and taps with rotating discounts. It is a straightforward, price-conscious program built for regular visits.

What should I order?
Order the $8 Wisconsin Old Fashioned on Tuesday Wisconsin Night and the $6 house-made margarita on Monday Mexican Monday. The Bloody Mary is listed at $8. For beer, PBR cans at $2.50 during happy hour or $2 on Sunday, and Modelo cans at $3 on Monday Mexican Monday, are the clearest values.
Who will enjoy this place?
People who plan their week around drink specials, prefer a Wisconsin Old Fashioned or a house-made margarita, and want a beer list that includes PBR, Modelo, High Noon, and Carbliss at promotional prices.
When should I go?
Happy hour and Sunday all-day happy hour offer the broadest discounts. Tuesday Wisconsin Night, Monday Mexican Monday, and Thursday tap-pitcher and can specials each anchor a specific night.
What should I expect to spend?
Specials keep spending low: $3 rail drinks, $6 margaritas, $8 Old Fashioneds and Bloody Marys, $2.50 or $2 PBR cans, $3 Modelo cans, and $1 off tap beer during happy hour.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The program runs on a daily and themed specials calendar rather than a static menu, with a Wisconsin Old Fashioned on Tuesday, a house-made margarita on Monday, and a Sunday all-day happy hour that repeats the happy-hour pricing.
