Viking Brew Pub

Service was excellent, very pleasant and attentive. Many choices of beer, I sampled one. The burger came out hot and was well prepared. Very tasty and I ended up taking some home. I preferred the house chips over the fries, personal preference. very interesting interior matching the name excellently.

We stop in anytime we want great food, awesome beers and excellent service. I wish they were open later, but it helps to get home early :)If you are in the area, excellent choice for a good time!

Everyone working there are friendly. The service is great and the menu has a nice selection for anyone. The decor is great! It's a must try restaurant. You'll like it.

A great friend and I do the Stoughton Art Walk annually and stopped here for some lunch. We sat at the sidewalk seating which at times was a little noisy because traffic on Main Street can be busy but it was really nicely shaded on a very toasty fall day. Our waitress Ashley G was definitely being kept busy but she was so friendly and checked on us several times. I had the Crimson and Clover IPA which was very good! It had a nice flavor without being overly hoppy. I also had the BLT which was really tasty--nice tomato, crispy bacon, and fresh lettuce on a well toasted multigrain bread. I forgot to take a picture but honestly it looked EXACTLY like the picture on the website which is really saying something. I can't speak for the interior because I didn't go inside. Definitely worth stopping in!

Stopped in for lunch on a very busy Saturday. The place was swamped with everyone from grandmas to toddlers. Luckily we landed a table near the beautiful wooden dragon, which is the bar. FYI I found out that the dragon will breathe a cloud of "smoke" with the press of a button. Nice.Like many restaurants, Viking Pub would probably prefer to hire more wait staff, but it's a worker's market. Luckily, no one was too annoyed that the food was a bit slow to appear after ordering. Once the food arrived, we could taste that the kitchen did not sacrifice quality.My Pesto Chicken sandwich was impressive. The grilled chicken was tender. I wish there were fewer sundried tomatoes and more pesto flavor. My husband ordered the open faced portobello sandwich, which surprised me since he is opposed to all mayo/sauces. He ate it, but probably would not order a second time.Each sandwich comes with your choice of: French fries, coleslaw or chips. The sides upgrade list was impressive, consisting of no less than seven options! The sweet potato fries were an excellent choice.Looking forward to checking out Viking Brew Pub again, just during the week.

Went here with a friend after reading the reviews and very contented. The environment was very fun, the food was fresh and tasty and the service was extremely friendly. Well, worth a visit.

Visiting friends and this is authentic Norwegian food and beverages. The Viking ba is quite the attraction. Pretzel app was enormous - about the size of a dinner plate. Dipping sauces were very good too. Cheese curds are a Wisconsin staple and these were very good. We all had the Scandinavian Cod entree. The creamed cabbage and red potatoes are a staple. All components were good.We sat in the bar area. It was active but not too crowded. There weren't people standing around our table.Recommended.

We checked this place out during Syttende Mai in downtown Stoughton. We luckily, snagged a table outside on the warm, sunny day near early evening. There is about 4 or 5 patio tables out front on the sidewalk for dining. Our friends had their two dogs with them so we couldn't eat inside. The brew pub provided dog bowls filled with ice cubed water for the pups which I thought was a nice touch.In addition, Inside is a Viking ship that is both a bar top area and focal point. I got a glimpse of it from the front entrance area because it was fairly busy inside. This places brews their own beer and offers unique twists on pub style food. This weekend they had a set menu offering Norwegian influences.After being seated, we waited over 10 minutes until we decided to go in and order drinks/app from the bar. We got their in house brews of Nordic Blonde and a wheat style beer. When the guys were gone, our server came. We let her know that we were ordering from the bar since no one came for awhile. She asked if we were seated by a hostess and we had been. She left and didn't come back at all. Later, we had to ask twice for her before she came back again for us to order food. It was well over 15 minutes that time. Our theory is that they were understaffed.When our appetizer came, the pretzel was the size of a melon, served warm and fluffy, and came with dipping sauces. The honey Dijon mustard sauce paired well! For my main dish, I ordered the Norwegian Turkey sandwich. It was sliced turkey, Swiss cheese with a jam and mayo combo which tasted great. It came with many nicely seasoned fries too. Others ordered the house burger (build your own) or Norwegian meatballs. Everything tasted good and gave a reasonable amount of food! It's possible to leave with left overs! I give this place a 4 for food and a 3 for service.

Restaurant quarter full during badger game, food has taken at least an hour to arrive. We ordered drinks and watched the bartender socialize at the bar while watching the game. A simple drink took 25 minutes to make. Waiting for food as we speak, we were never told the kitchen was backed up but have been overhearing the waitress tell other guest that it is. Nice environment, sticky table but asked to wipe it down and they did, but table was still sticky afterwards... oh well. How is the kitchen backed up when it's the restaurant is half full? What is going on? what happened? Not the Viking way

Friday was our first time trying this establishment. You walk in and see the viking ship and wow!! We were seated in the upper area, which was quieter than the bar area. Our waitress was very prompt and pleasant, and knew the menu well. We started off with the deep fried green beans with ligonberry sauce. Both were a pleasant surprise. Since we're not beer drinkers, we chose our fave cocktails which were done quite nicely (for a brew pub :) ). Our entrees came and I had chosen the Friday fish special which was perfectly done and came with a rye bread crumbled topping. Delish! Served over sauteed cabbage with baby red potatoes. The sauce that was used on the cabbage was almost like a tartar sauce but so much better! My hubby had the prime rib sandwich, which he said was the perfect portion. We ended the meal with their Lava cake with vanilla ice cream. Again, it was perfect! We plan to return to this brew pub for the food!!
