The hidden gem of (almost) Fitchburg. Family-owned and ran, you can often catch 3 generations of women behind the bar that have hospitality running through their veins.
The drinks here are strong, the food is great [cooked in front of you], and the prices way beyond reasonable - which nowadays in Madison is rare.
The atmosphere is classic to the "Wisconsin Dive Bar" feel but with a very friendly tone. This place attracts the best of its demographic - almosy every time I'm there someone insist on buying me a drink - once someone paid for my whole meal!
Furthermore, if youre a smoker, they also have a smoke room so you won't need to go outside when the weather gets cold. You can buy your cigarettes right at the bar, too.
If you're around the Fitchburg area, skip that $11 burger at the other place and stop on by Licaris for something just as good. Friday Fish Fry is a specially good thing to enjoy.
Great place, hidden for only those who knows where this treasure lies!
