| - Review is just for bar! We didn't eat here, and not gonna lie, they don't have much for a vegan to eat.
We found this place when we were visiting Madison, and my husband simply typed "bar" into my Yelp app from our hotel room. We were both stunned to discover such a cool place so near to us!
This is exactly the kind of place I like. Old school. Cozy. Classy. Older Clientele. If I lived in Madison, I would spend many of my nights in their tiny bar.
The bartender schooled me on what exactly goes on with a brandy Old Fashioned. Hey, I live in LA, where Old Fashioneds are made of bourbon, and no one ever asks how sweet you want it! But I rather liked my brandy version. I moved on to my signature drink, the Manhattan... and they wanted to maybe make that with brandy as well! What is up with you WI people and your brandy?!? :-D And while I admit I was taken aback that it was served on the rocks, well, I embraced that and celebrated cultural differences. :-)
Anyway, great spot! Great service! And as far as I am concerned, very cheap prices on drinks. We got 2 cocktails, 2 glasses of wine, and 1 glass of beer, which came to $40 with a generous tip. In LA, I would expect to pay over $60 for that!
