Solid 4/5. Classic Madison, good ole reliable standby, can't go wrong with the Dane. Nice little home brew selection (especially the Verruct). Good food, good enough where it makes you say, every so often, let's go to the Dane! Went there (downtown Madison location) for NYE 2012 and 2013 and had a blast! Pool tables suck compared to Brass Ring (if you are looking for billiards). Overall quality, lasting experience that brings you there multiple times.
