What makes this place great is that everything the have is good or very good. When we decide to go out to eat the default is generally the Great Dane because they have such a wide variety of food and do a good job at each dish that it doesn't matter what we are in the mood for. They also have pretty good beer. A good combo I like to get is the Oatmeal Stout and the Pot Pie they go well together especially in the wintertime. Another combo is the Crop Circle Wheat with the Fish Tacos.
Two things I would rate exceptional: The Nakoma Nachos (served all night), and the clam chowder (Fridays only).
When it is busy or a long wait just sit at the bar, there is usually available space. In conclusion: it be a mighty fine Pub.
