I met friends halfway; I'm from Milwaukee and they live in Madison--it was the perfect meet-in-the-middle spot. Right on the main drag and lots of street parking. The space is clean and spacious--the dining room is separated from the bar and I liked this. We didn't get apps but our drinks came quickly. They were pretty and my pals liked theirs--I thought mine was weak or not a lot of flavor but I don't really use yelp stars to rate taste as our taste buds are all different... Anyway, I got a chicken sandwich and they got burgers--we all loved them! Fries as a side were great. Our server was kind and funny, the bathrooms were clean, I'd for sure go back.

11/10 !! We ordered a shrimp scampi and the creamy pesto pasta! It's been a very long time since I've had pesto pasta that's actually creamy. Ordered a smoked manhattan and that as well was delicious. Truly everything is delicious!

Meeting up with some family from the Madison area halfway doesn't leave a ton of options so I was excited to find The Grist in Lake Mills; about 35 minutes for the Madison folks and 55 minutes for the Milwaukee folks. We were seated quickly and brought waters and menus. The menu was pared down a fair amount from the version online, which was disappointing and required some last-minute changes. Thankfully everyone liked what they had--definitely get the home made chips, they are fantastic! My fish and chips was a smaller entree, but priced appropriately so I have no complaints there. Service could have been a bit better, as I wanted more water, but overall a very good meal. I would try them again someday should I find myself in Lake Mills.

My wife and I got burnt hamburgers, complained about it and the waiter/bartender refused to get us new ones. Terrible customer service.

Stopped here on a Tuesday night with the beautiful wife. We didn't want to cook and wanted to explore our new area. I ordered a craft drink that was really good. We got the jalapeño shrimp which would have the be the best sauce I've had such great flavor. If that would be on wings it would be my absolute favorite wing sauce. We devoured them that is for sure! I ordered the half rack of ribs in their dry rub I got the bbq on the side which was great to dip in. The wife order the grist beefier which she said was extremely good. The price was just right for the area that we enjoyed having it and will be back to a hopefully expanded menu

I get being short staffed but waiting more than 10 minutes for service is poor. They walked by our table several times. I thought perhaps our entire table of 4 died. Be better for the next group that doesn't see this. We have taken our meal and entertainment $$$ to the Fharmacy.

Had a great. Night out after Knickerbocker weekend with the family. Limited menu due to the weekend events, but staff was friendly, drinks were good, and food was well-seasoned and very reasonably priced. Had a smash burger and fries and was very impressed. Teen kids had chicken tenders and said they were "some of the best they ever had". Again, neat ambiance in a neat town. Great night and will definitely go back!
