Sweet Home Wisconsin

We were not done celebrating after the Badger win and were on the hunt for a place nearby that wasn't overrun with folks and had a 25 minute wait for a beer, so we kept walking down Regent Street until we found what we were after, which turned out to be Sweet Home Wisconsin! We wandered in and bellied up to the bar immediately. The staff was phenomenal from entry to exit. Both bartenders and the bar back we encountered were friendly, kind and pleasant. Even the other customers at the bar were friendly! Could have been the great UW win, but either way, not a bad vibe in the place! We hung out for an hour or two, and in that time had a few cocktails, a pickle back and some cheese curds. All were delightful! Sweet Home Wisconsin has a purely local vibe, but a welcoming energy for all local or visiting. Overall, absolutely fell in love with this little spot! It is certainly on my "return to" list when back in Madison!

Was trying to get into another burger place that was highly rated but due to a game the wait was too long. Ended up walking back to the car and did another yelp search. This was a few blocks away so decided to try it. So here are the good things:-Service was solid-Beverage selections were plentiful-Had the college vibe, wood everywhere with a touch to stickiness and grime that brought back memories-Appetizers were solid - cheese curds were bananas! Wings were good, wish it was tossed with slightly less sauce and hoping they were bigger wings but still goodThe reason why I gave 3 stars-The burgers were just ok -The pickle spear didn't have a crunch. -Just pepper on the chipsRegarding the burgers, wish they seasoned the meat a little more prior to cooking. They were juicy but I had to add salt and pepper to really bring out any flavor.Pickle spear was springy and had no crunch. Being an additional charge i was thinking they'd be fresh and crispy but not the case. Chips were good but some had nothing others had pepper grinds with very little salt. I had to add salt. I complained a lot about salt and I don't like over salty food, I just like when it accents it and brings out the flavors. Gotta give it another try as this could have been a bad day

CHEESE CURDS and other fresh excellence from the kitchen make a stop at this small bar and eats place worthwhile. Friendly peeps.

We were in town for a few days and someone had recommended this place to my husband, so we figured we would give it a try. We arrived around 11 on a Friday and were quickly seated. They have appetizers, several different burgers, salads, and a few others sandwiches. I had the garlic guitar burger with chips. My husband had the patty melt with fries. Both sandwiches were very tasty. The chips were extra crunchy. The fries were good but very salty.

The service was great on a rainy day. Jalapeño poppers were forgettable, but the boneless wings were good and the grilled cheese was quite tasty! Quiet afternoon at the bar with a few locals in, would definitely come back again!

Sweet home Wisconsin appears to be a cool place to hang out, primarily for students. We happened to go for lunch on a Friday at 11:00 a.m. just as they opened, and it seemed to be their less active time, understandably. It did provide us the opportunity to get great service, since we were the only ones there. I had the patty melt and fries - the burger was excellent, and the fries were prepared to a perfect crispness and just a little oversalted. With pricing averaging about $20 per person including drinks and a meal, it is a reasonable value for the area.

I took out dinner from here on a Friday evening. Fried cheese curds I had, was the best I ever had. Sriracha ranch added a nice kick to it. Garlick guitar lick burger had excellent flavors. Phish fry sandwich was good as well.

Great food and super tasty burgers. Definitely try their garlic option. Service was great as we were in a rush for an appointment so had to switch to take-out once we realized we probably didn't have enough time to sit down and enjoy the food inside. The waitress was super helpful and brought our food in take-out containers and no time was wasted! Love the cute and creative aesthetics. Will go back for sure!

How have I never been here before? I have lived in Madison for 28 years and missed this one. We went for dinner on a Thursday night and the crowd was light, which is just my style. The beer selection is good, the potato wedges were tasty, and we split 2 burgers, both of which were excellent. The service was on point as well. Can't wait to go back now that I know it's there!

Food was great. Service was fast. I would recommend for a casual dinning experience.
