Neighborhood bar with plenty of stuff on the walls. Great place to meet up for drinks, munch popcorn , and play giant jenga . Or just watch others play while you keep drinking.

Dog friendly bar ! But be careful, popcorn is bad for dogs (it's free, but also on the ground ).

The free popcorn is with it; something to put in your tummy while you're spiking your liver :)

The bartender Rob while extremely hairy, like borderline disgustingly hairy, is a pretty nice guy.

Enormous outdoor patio makes this Wisconsin spot a summer paradise. Great for groups and big drinking parties. Chicken tenders and pizzas are the best menu items but the burgers are pretty solid too. - C Rey
