Everyone likes bar food every now and then! Eddie's has decent food with fun burger options and a great beer selection. They always have a good selection of beers on tap and SO MANY beers by the bottle. The only complaint I've had with them is that their beer menu is not always up to date, so I choose a beer only to find they no longer have it on tap. Not a huge deal, I just choose another, but it's happened a couple times.
Review Source:Monster selection of microbrews; you're certain to find something unique and interesting here. Â From cask ales to IPAs to porters to, well, you name it, Eddie is likely to have something that'll whet your whistle.
Bartenders are a bit aloof; we visited with some friends who knew one of the bartenders quite well, and we still suffered mediocre service. Â If I had one suggestion for Eddie's staff, it would be: lighten-up. Â They seemed melancholy...
We didn't eat here, but friends said the food is decent. Â Crowd was friendly and the atmosphere was comfortable.
I'll go back, I'm sure. Â Maybe the barkeeps will crack (or at least feign) a smile next time.
I am new to Sun Prairie and like to support local businesses but I won't be going back to Eddie's. Like other reviewers here I am also flabbergasted by the rudeness of the staff.
I tried Eddie's twice and both times no one acknowledge that I was even in the room. The second time was with an out of town guest, we were two of about 6 people total in the place, the bartender looked at us a few times but never acknowledged us or asked us if we wanted anything.
Maybe they don't have table service. If that is the case hang a sign or have the courtesy to tell patrons they need to come to the bar, we are not mind readers. I think they call it the 'hospitality industry' - don't bother with these inhospitable clowns.
As far as I've seen, Eddies has the vastest beer selection in the area. There is one other place In Madison that offers a comparable selection, but eddies is definitely the place to go. The bartenders tend to be fairly knowledgeable about the beer they serve, the place has a welcoming atmosphere, the prices are good, they have a pool table, and they have several large t.v.'s to watch the game on.
The downside? The place is rather small, and on late nights and weekends it can get pretty crammed. I'm talking rubbing elbows, hard to shoot pool, feeling of being at a concert crammed. Which may put a lot of people off. But remember, all those patrons cram in there for a reason.
The first thing you notice about this place is the cigarette smoke. Â The second thing I notices was the dirty tables. Â The plates had been removed, but no one bothered to clean up all of the crumbs left behind. Â
The bottled beer selection is impressive but I wish they had more on tap. Â I got the Boden cheeseburger basket. Â It came with fried onions and chipotle mayo. Â The extra $2 for the basket option allowed for waffle fries. Â The burger wasn't bad but the serving size of fries was really skimpy and not worth an extra $2. Â My husband got the chicken sandwich with a cup of soup. Â The soup was pretty good but the sandwich was no more than average.
Basically, I would not go out of my way to eat here. Â It is just far too average.
New on the Sun Prairie scene, Eddie's boasts  an extensive (and impressive) beer selection, juke box to sing-a-long to, dart board, pool table, appealing decor and deliciously greasy bar food make this place one of Sun Prairie's finest. Â
The bar is quite small and gets a bit smoky on busy weekend nights. Â Therefore, I prefer the early Eddie's crowd. Â On Mondays they host trivia from 8-10pm and offer occasional live music. Â Once the state-wide smoking ban goes into effect, I'll be much more willing to visit on weekend nights.
I went there for fish fry last Friday. It was excellent! I had the cod and my husband had the perch - both just delicious. They came with fries (which were okay) and coleslaw (some of the best I've ever had).
I was under the impression from the website that this was a bar with an eating area, but it really is more like a bar with a grill and a few large tables. It was all one room with a pool table at one end and the front door at the other, with the bar itself running almost the length of the room. But it really isn't a large room.
I took my children (again, I thought it had more seating area) and they shared a couple of sliders (tiny little burgers, apparently).
This place has quite a beer list. My husband had a Raging Bitch (har har har) and I enjoyed a lovely 7 & 7.
Eddie's is on Main Street, so there are a couple of parking spots out front, we went after banking hours and so parked behind the building, in the bank's parking lot.
This place is fantastic. Â Quality service from knowledgeable bartenders always make a great experience. Â The owner is a true beer lover and it shows. Â Always 100+ beers to choose from with a consistently cycling inventory means you can always trying something new or stick with what you know and love. Â Of course they have the standard miller/bud/coors crap that some people seem to enjoy. Â But if you're feeling adventurous, trying something new. Â Even if you're not sure, the well informed staff will point you in the right direction. Â Food is really good too. Â Anything from waffle fries and mac n cheese bites to the 'Danny Burger' or pizzas have never let me down. Â The food is inexpensive and local. Â Also a great place to watch a game.
