    Juicy Lucy is SO GOOD! Pork a fork on the top of the party to vent out the heat for a minute before eating so you don't scald your mouth or fingers when the cheese squeezes out :)

    Get a booth with a window in order to see the Credit River as it flows North to Minnesota River.

    They've got a surprisingly good beer service here, and the food is better than I remembered it from years ago. The spicy cheese curds are forgettable, but their wings are very nicely done.

    Beer, wings and juicy lucy are what people come for. There is also a great selection of sandwiches and burgers! Don't leave without a tall 1919 root beer!

    Update to last post. They were good about saying they could adjust the mix of cheese in queso upon request. Prompt, responsive, and helpful service.

    Talk with the owner, John, if you can. Been coming here for years, and he really knows how to run a business and take care of his customers. Love this place!

    This is a good burger bar. The Juicy Lucys are great. Try the cheese curds. There is a full bar, but they're not great at mixed drinks.

    While the tap selection in small, John the owner get a good rotation of craft beers on them. He also brings in beers in bombers that he can't get on tap.

    The cheese curds are the best you can get outside of the state fair and you can't go wrong with 1919 root beer!

    The inaugural beer flight! With a constantly rotating selection, this may be the very first, certainly not the last.

    Great food typically. But,. avoid queso dip. It was basically runny chili without any observable cheese.

    If you have bone-in wings, ask for them to be grilled.
