My wife and I decided to try something new and stopped by barkers to give them a shot. We were shocked, the place wasn't very busy. We were greeted by our server Katrina and started with drinks and an appetizer. We ordered truffle fries, a Diet Coke for my wife, and a Tito's with cranberry juice for myself.For our main course, I went with the turkey burger with potato chips, and my wife ordered the Diablo chicken sandwich. Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with the turkey burger, it lacked flavor, and the onions, which I requested to be caramelized, were red onions not regular onions.While the experience wasn't terrible, it didn't leave a strong impression. I might return to try other menu items, but my first visit wasn't what I had expected.

Love the food at Barkers, and especially love the friendly service. Someone always greets you when you arrive and says "thanks for coming" on your way out. Have eaten in lots of times, but last night was the first time trying take out. Was ready when expected, and was still good, but just be aware that there is an extra charge for take out containers.

First time I went here they had a really good pot roast meal. It was amazing.Second time, we ordered the creole and garlic wings. As you can see in the photo, they were covered in jarlick - jarred garlic. I get it they are busy, but these were doused with garlic. It was so heavy handed with garlic they weren't any good. We ate 3 of 10.We sent them back and asked to get a different kind of wing. Waitress said sure, no problem.We got the bill and were charged for two orders of wings. We tried to have the ones we sent back removed from the bill. $16 for a plate of 10 wings. The manager said, "It's our policy not to refund if the food is made to spec."How were we supposed to know that's their policy? It wasn't listed on the menu of hungry up anywhere we could have noticed. I've never had a problem sending back food and being charged for it before, and I assumed most restaurants have a general rule if you don't eat or like something, you don't get charged for it. Just a heads up if you dine here.

After an afternoon of bar hopping and before an evening of recovery, my main man John and I stopped at Barker's for dinner and a beer (and yet another beer). I had told him that I've never been to Barker's before. He responded, "You mean to tell me that you've never been to Barker's? "Hey, this is your town, not mine," I said. Well, he said, "Alex J, you're in for a treat."We went inside and were ushered to a booth by a gorgeous young lady. She must be one of Barker's beauties, I thought. My first impression was that I like this place. It has a warm atmosphere. Easy to be comfortable. Everyone was smiling. I guess we were, too. After all, we had just come in from having visited 4 bars previous, and for good measure, a stop at home to have a beer....as if we needed one. So we were quite amiable. Our friendly server took our order of two Bullseye Burgers and fries. No, not each. One for each would go a long way in starting the recovery process, and believe me, by that time, they were sorely needed. John was trying to convince me that I should ask the lovely girl to marry me! Ever the romantic he is. Well, the burgers arrived just in time to thwart the proposal. SMH.. JohnNow, I don't know if it was because we were hungry or if the burgers were that darn good. But their presence at our table was short-lived. Talk about a disappearing act. Chris Angel couldn't have done a better job.Every bit of the burger found its rightful place, and every fry used to mop up the sauce. My imaginary fiancee wasn't going to have a problem getting those plates back to the dishwasher, and he would think, why is she bringing me clean dishes? All that was left for us to do was to lick our lips and pay the bill. Barker's isn't exactly fine dining, but for a couple of tipsy grandpa's, the dining was just fine.Quick Tip: When we were presented with the bill, we found it to be quite reasonable. You may say that at Barker's, "The Price is Right." I just had to do it, Bob. Oh, and by the way, don't forget to spay or neuter your pets.

My last review of Barker's was from 2014, but after last night, I have to update!My family and I had a reservation at a different restaurant for NYE but ended up having to cancel day of because that restaurant hid their very expensive special NYE menu.I was worried we wouldn't be able to find another place to go at the time we wanted to, but thankfully Barker's fit the bill! We got a reservation for the same time that our other reservation was for and they were very accommodating.My husband and I arrived first because we wanted to get a drink at the bar, however when we arrived the host told us our table was ready, which was super nice. Our server arrived quickly to take our drink and app order and both of those arrived quickly.My parents arrived about 10 minutes later and the server again was quick to get drink orders. Our appetizer arrived and was absolutely delicious, as were our drinks.My brother and nephew arrived last, and our server quickly grabbed orders all around. Our food arrived quickly and everything was really good. I decided on the pot roast, which was melt in your mouth delicious, and the carrots that come on the side were PERFECT. My dad loved his bison burger, and everyone else seemed to really enjoy their food as well.We had such a negative experience with the other restaurant we were supposed to go to, but I guess everything worked out for the best because we ended up being much happier at Barker's!

So in my travels, I have challenged myself to seek out unique architecture. Hudson, WI boasts the Octagon House Museum. I stopped by and stretched my legs walking down to the St. Croix riverfront, and then up through the village. I came across Barkers and sat down, observing the locals and their interactions with each called by name, and endearing terms "Gare Bear".... I had the Wagyu Double Smash Burger, made fresh by Jorge. It hit the spot! This is a gem with all the ambiance and small town feel! Don't take my word for it, on the wall are tons of paper and magazine reviews. If you find yourself in this neck of the woods and need a place to stop, stretch and fuel, find your way to Hudson, WI and Barkers.

Our go-to when we don't know what else to do. We love the Wisconsin culture of sitting at the bar, ordering a beer, and having some good food. Barkers always delivers a good time. They are hands down the best burger in town, they also have a great beer selection. While I do see lots of chatting among the wait staff, we are always taken care of well. This is one of the few places we will miss when it comes time to move.
