They really ought to just cut out the "& Grill" part of their name. The food here is nothing special; just your typical bar food. It tastes cheap. And it is cheap, but not cheap enough. Get dinner somewhere else.
For drinks though, this isn't a bad place at all, especially in the summer thanks to outdoor seating. It's a shame that the outdoor seating only goes so far, considering Madison is a frozen hellhole most of the time. On Friday and Saturday nights, expect this place to be mobbed with frat boys inside and out like all the other campus bars. It's not worth fighting through the crowd. But during the week, they've got excellent specials and friendly down-to-earth bartenders. However, I wouldn't trust a mixed drink from this place, and never have gotten one.
I love coming here for happy "hour" (it's actually 3 to 5 hours long). The $1 Milwaukee taps will get you drunk for cheaper than even the liquor store, and your choices of beer aren't too bad. Compliment it with the fact that you get to sit out on University Avenue while you do the drinking, and this place makes for a great evening drink 3 months out of the year.
