Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
Waverly Beach Bar & Grille runs a beverage program built for volume and variety rather than connoisseurship. The cocktail menu splits into margaritas, mojitos, and signature drinks, with daily specials like $5 house margaritas on Tuesday and $5 house Old Fashioneds on Friday. Fifteen draft beers include local and craft options, and spirits are named by brand in the cocktails. Three bars—Main Bar, Tiki Bar, and Covered Patio—support the operation. It is a straightforward, well-priced program for a crowd that wants familiar drinks done consistently.
- What should I order?
- Start with a Classic Margarita ($9.50) or the Jalapeno Margarita ($9.50) if you want a little heat. For beer, the 3 Sheeps Chaos Pattern ($6.75) or Spotted Cow ($6.50) are solid local picks. The Classic Old Fashioned ($6.50) is a low-cost way to test the whiskey side.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Groups looking for a broad, affordable drink list with familiar cocktails and local drafts. Sports fans will find game-day specials and multiple bars. Anyone seeking a deep wine list or a serious standalone spirits selection should look elsewhere.
- When should I go?
- Happy hour and daily specials are the draw—Tuesday for $5 house margaritas, Wednesday for $5 house wine, and Friday for $5 house Old Fashioneds. Packers and Badgers game days bring their own specials.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Cocktails run $6.50 to $10. Draft beers are $5.00 to $7.50. House wine is $5 on Wednesdays. Game-day and happy hour specials lower the tab further.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- Three bars—Main Bar, Tiki Bar, and Covered Patio—and a cocktail menu organized into margaritas, mojitos, and signature drinks, with daily specials that rotate by day of the week.
