    Finally decided to try this place after passing by so many times? Thanks to a FB post I had a buy one get one free burger coupon. Ordered cheese curds as well . I had the crafty classic and the wife had the dirtiest swiss.. Before I start with the food, I was a little concerned with the place being so dead, but nonetheless, the curds came out first and those were very good ( Maybe leave in fryer a little longer as bottoms got soggy quickly ) but we're very crisp and not overly salty like some curds can be. ( Ranch was amazing too BTW ) Next up came the burgers and I was so excited to see shoestring fries, but they could've executed them a little better, ( dropping them right as the burgers are being dressed especially if the kitchen isnt as busy ) would ensure a fresher and hotter taste. They were good still, the burger itself was excellent, very juicy and seasoned nicely, and the onions were a very nice touch .. the wife enjoyed her burger as well. I'm definitely not gonna be a stranger especially with all the specials they have. In the words of the Terminator, I'LL BE BACK

    Out 2nd time to try something new! Did not disappoint! Finn was great! Chicken and biscuit sandwich was great, and the curds are amazingly light and fluffy!

    Ordered the street corn salad with fried chicken... What a boring salad with so much potential. I am super disappointed because it sounded so good but ugh it was so so blah!

    From the appearance it looked like it was going to be amazing, but nothing was seasoned and the fries were overcooked. It all tasted bland.. just an FYI, if you want to grab drinks, don’t go here. Jack and coke cost me $17. I didn’t know Wauwatosa was Chicago pricing. That’s double what any other local pub will charge. Overall was pretty disappointed and wouldn’t return.
