| - TVs...nope, Open all the time...nope, Great food selection ...nope! This is why The Ale House has become my favorite bar.
I like the fact that Pat doesn't have TVs all over the place. It allows for great conversationn either with the friends you came with, Pat, or the regulars at the bar. The only times Pat brings out the TV is when the Badgers or Packers are broadcast over the air. Sweet!
I've seen the reviews that the Ale House isn't open all the time. Please understand Pat's a one man shop. He's the Owner, Bartender, Buss Boy, and one hell of a chef. So I understand if he takes a night off now and then. The Ale House is open at least the regular nights, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday...so that's fine with me(he's probably open more, but I don't get out that much).
As far as the food selection...the Sugar River Pizzaria will deliver, and Pat usually has Soft Pretzels, but that's it for standard food. But don't be disappointed! Pat usually has a special for the week, Brisket Tacos, Pulled Pork Nachos, or some other creation that I can't do justice. Like I side above, Pat is a great Chef, his experience and his combination of flavors is a wonderful addition to Belleville dinner scene. In addition to the food, Pat keeps a mad selection of local taps in rotation. There's always some new beer, that Pat will educate you on.
With the points above, plus a shuffle board table, the occasional jam session (last Friday Bobby Messano), and a random dog, the Ale House is the place to be.
WIN!
