I generally go to MKE bars and never find my way out to Pewaukee. I'm glad I went to this place. They had a great patio right on the water and the service was really good. Melissa was my server and could be more fun. And, not that annoying forced fun that you get from some servers...
I went just for drinks. They had a basic beer menu. Nothing really craft beyond New glarius spotted cow. Â But, i'm not going to be all snobby about it.
This place is a bar that I look forward to spending more time at in the future.
My favorite warm weather spot in Pewaukee!! They have a great outdoor patio right on the lake. Great place to relax, stare at the lake and enjoy some wings and cocktails. The food is nothing special, just your average bar food but the atmosphere is what this place is all about! The service tends to be pretty slow so be warned in advance, they aren't the best at checking back to see if u need anything. Atmosphere-5 stars, Food-3 stars, Service-1-3 stars depending on the day.
Review Source:We decided to check this place out while we were on vacation visiting my family for a quick bite to eat. From the moment we pulled up into the parking lot, I just knew this was going to be a cool place. I am originally from Wisconsin, but currently live in San Diego so I was looking forward to having lunch on the lake.
This place is is so cozy! You walk downstairs to the main bar at lake level where there are so many sports banners, pictures, flags etc. it is crazy. They even have a wall dedicated to Brett Farve.... The classic neon beer signs top it off.
There is an outdoor patio facing the boat docks and lake, but it was so muggy outside we decided to eat inside the pub area.
The menu was quite extensive and very reasonable. They have their specials daily and I ordered the veggie wrap (which was VERY TASTY) even for my California girl taste. My husband ordered the grilled chicken sandwich..no butter plain blah blah (many requests) and the waitress was so sweet and patient with our not-so-Wisconsin like requests. I asked her to bring me some festive for a drink and she brought me back a popsicle like drink that was SO YUMMY! I can't emphasize the sweetness of the waitress! Of course we are in Wisconsin! No such service in Cali...
Lastly, we returned a few days later because we rented a pontoon boat and jet skis from a vendor that launches from their docks at the Sandbar. Again, we experienced amazing service with our very large group for lunch, accommodating everyones special requests!
Love this place! Thanks for a great time!
Great location and I like what the owner has done to the patio space. I hope that they keep it though as I heard through the grapevine that they are risking to lose it due to neighbor's complaints.
Where they lose some stars on this review is that the service can be hit or miss even though they have a ton of girls working there. Our server seemed to ask all of the tables around us for refill requests even though our table had empty beer glasses for 20 minutes. Also my Buffalo chicken wrap had virtually no buffalo sauce in it for some reason.
Regardless their patio is fun and I hope that they are able to hold on to it.
