"From its eclectic look to great prices and very cool, pleasant customers and bartenders this old tavern is the place to be. Check out the jukebox! We didn't have food but the menu is bar food and I heard it's good. It's the 2nd oldest longstanding bar in Madison. A day of Arboretum and hotel stay in the city and dinner out made us happy and the short hike from Pewaukee was a mini vacation getaway. Don't miss it- they have weekend bands too!"
"Large, welcoming coffee shop that serves a variety of breakfast sandwiches, lunch items and of course great coffee! I has a great breakfast sandwich on a bagel. A REAL bagel - you know them when you taste them! I also had a very good iced coffee.Relaxing environment with lots of art and interesting architectural elements like bikes decorating pillars and lots of other vintage elements. Award for best use of vintage doors and windows - used in the counter, stage and as an upstairs partition. On a nice day, sit outside at a table with an umbrella and enjoy the sun and main street.Don't forget to buy some whole bean coffee, sticker, T-shirt, etc on your way out! Cash is preferred here, but plastic is also accepted. Staff were very friendly in this inclusive venue. Service was great! Don't forget to tip the staff! Will be back.RECOMMENDATION: Check their website for their menu items and hours and days open. They close at 3 pm on some days. Open til 8 on Thursdays."
"Loved this place. The ambience, food, location were all top notch. Recommended to others and they too have already went and loved ."
"Had family night out to celebrate my cousins 21st birthday. Despite crummy weather the place was still pretty packed and the crowd was pretty welcoming.The mechanical bull is obviously a main attraction here which was on my bucket list. I will say, a lot harder than I expected. $5 buys you 2 tries (most people averaged about 30 seconds) which I thought was a bit pricey... but worth it for the videos and memories we got out of it.Didn't get a chance to try any food, but the drinks were definitely on the weak side. Cleanliness was a little subpar as well, but again - we got what we expected out of the visit."

My husband and I visited Mickey's Tavern for the first time yesterday and were pleasantly surprised with it! As we walked up to the door, there was a sign that said ''when you're here, you're not at Olive Garden''. We got a good laugh out of it and could tell this would be our type of place. I've heard good things about Mickey's Tavern from my aunt, but always assumed it was a dive bar. That was definitely not the case! The ambiance is really nice. It's dimly lit with neon lights, feminist signs (yes!!!), a cozy bar, a pool table in the back area. We love a good bar and this one was so cute and fun! I ordered a classic Wisconsin Old Fashioned to drink and we ordered ''Sexy Fries''. The fries were thin cut potato slices with truffle oil, Parmesan, crushed red pepper, and salt. They were so flavorful and crispy! We loved them and would definitely order them again.We can't wait to come back and try more things!

We've stopped by Paradigm a few times now on different trips up north.What a gem of a spot they have here in Sheboygan. The coffee is delicious as are their breakfast bites. The service has always lovely and the atmosphere is eclectic, cool, and comfy. They are situated on a street that has been closed to everything but foot traffic on their block and they have patio seating on the street. We had our dog with us on our most recent trip and enjoyed the outdoor seating while sipping our coffee. And, you can even take their dishes out to the street patio (if you get your food/drink to stay), so no worries there. Always a wonderful experience here.Get to it!

Stopped by Blüm recently for an afternoon bite and sip.I ordered their Blüm latte, which was an interesting combination of caramel and mint and was actually lightly minty (not overly sweet) and lovely. They offer milk alternatives, so I was able to get it made with almond milk, which I appreciated.For my bite, I got the asparagus goat cheese quiche. It was a mini quiche (as opposed to a slice, but definitely as ample as, if not more so, than a slice), warmed up, and perfectly flavorful. It's located in a garden center in a building that is 100+ years old, so it's utterly charming. There are plants and a fun water feature with plenty of seating to sit and work, socialize, or have a 1:1 business meeting. The service is lovely and the prices are reasonable.Get to it!

My girlfriend and I live in Chicago. For the past few years we have been going to Milwaukee for the St. Patrick's Day parade. After the parade today we went to Red Rock for lunch. It was pretty busy and the ladies were working hard. Eventually, our server Kay came over to our table. She was a sweetheart and fun. We split the 3 meat and 3 sides platter and had a lot of beer and shots. The food was really good, and they had a very large selection of whiskeys. We were seated next to the mechanical bull and were tempted to trt it, but being in our mid-30s and not drunk enough, we decided not to. We were there for about 5 hours and had great service. We left a big tip, and Kay came back to make sure it wasn't a mistake.

Cute bar in the college area. The bartender knew the beers on tap and was helpful. They were having a DJ which is what she said was "live" music lol but we didn't stay for that. Nice TVs to watch the games on. Overall cute laid back atmosphere.

"Love, love, love this place. Awesome staff and the patio is dog friendly. Live music and you can also hear the music from across the street when the park has music. The drinks and the food are amazing. You definitely have to check this place out."
"Recently took a job in Wisconsin and this place has become my local oasis. The drinks are cheap, and the dice game "shake for shots" is unlike anything I have seen elsewhere in the US. Large outdoor patio and I am told live music is a mainstay during warmer months."
