My friends and I were shooting the shee-ot about what makes a good dive bar, and came up with a list of 30 items. We decided to go to Slices to check out our choices, and it did not disappoint. Cheap beer, stiff drinks, friendly staff and really good food. This is when of the best bars in madison that people don't know about, and I'm not sure I want them to come...it may ruin the neighborhood feel.
Slice was a bartender with 'Bullet' many moons ago at the Caribou, and they started this establishment in the shadow of the now shuttered Oscar Mayer plant. They make it look easy by providing awesome burgers and one of the best fish frys plates in Dane County. Swing by, join the local kickball team, and have a drink. You will love or hate it.
