Hank & Karen's Tavern

H&K's is a definitely a townie bar. With only four beers on tap, don't go there expecting to widen your pallette of beer choices. Numerous TVs line the walls, so I am sure this would be a great, low-key place to catch your favorite team on TV. On a Thursday night, it was pretty quiet and good for catching up with friends around a high-top table and a beer (my friends chose 24 Oz Miller Lite cans, I chose a pint of Goose Island's Winter Ale....Stone Yard's Scottish Ale was also on tap, and the other two were, uh, crap).

I met up with some friends at Hank & Karen's last night for beefers, hot ham & cheese and cheese curds! Oh yes, very good! Reasonably priced and welcoming staff... John is "King of the Kitchen" and his cheese curds were just perfect!There are different drink specials every night. I was also pleasantly surprised to find Stone Cellar beer on tap! Bring cash though!! No credit cards here.

This place is great! Delicious beer, a HUGE pail of peanuts on each table, and a TV everywhere you look! We had a double order of cheese curds - so yummy! Flavorful and not at all greasy!

I had lunch here recently. Having grown up nearby and never going in the place before, I was impressed.The bar area was nicely done and kept clean. I was surprised to see stone cellar beer here. After a few pints and a prime rib sandwich (also very good) all I can say is nice work Hank and Karen

Great neighborhood bar with peanuts on the table and great grill. The staff is super friendly and hustle to make sure you have a good time. There is NO swearing in the bar, so watch yourself.

This is epitome of an awesome dive bar. Loved it. which I could have stayed and enjoyed to likely stiff beverages!

Fun place to watch a game! Many up to date tvs. The staff and owner ( Hank) are very friendly and welcoming. Prices are great. It's like the tv show cheers. Everyone knows you name. Bartenders do a great job at keeping the drinks flowing. The food is good as well. Great neighborhood bar.

Rockstar staff fantastic food When ever you get to the Fox valley you have to visit here

The food was awesome!!! The interior is very welcoming with lots of sports and a great staff. The best neighborhood bar.

I live in the neighborhood and was so excited to try this place. What a disappointment. We came in on a Saturday evening. The menu is almost non-existent on weekends! Pizza, pulled pork (which was actually beef) and ham and cheese. No cheese curds (which they are supposedly known for!). I ordered a margarita and it came in a 4 oz plastic glass! The pulled pork (beef) was heated up in a microwave as was the ham/cheese sandwich. Then, when it was time to pay, they don't take credit cards! Luckily we had enough cash. I've never seen a bar that is like this. How they stay in business is beyond me! Won't ever go back thats for sure.
