So the last review was in 2009, and that was right around the last time I had been here. That is until last Friday. This place deserves a more current review. I had heard a rumor of a half-way-decent fish fry, and we were looking for a new place, so we decided to go for it. What we found was not just half-way-decent, but it was a totally legit fish fry to rival most. Yes, it is a bit divey, and we may have gotten that«your-not-from-around-here look» at first, but that is part of the charm. Everyone who worked there was friendly, and the drinks were reasonable. They also had some good beers on tap. Now for the fish fry: I ordered the fried fish and shrimp combo with potato pancakes and my wife had the baked with potato pancakes. You have to get the potato pancakes! They are homemade and they are some of the best around. The fish was beer battered and the shrimp was breaded. The shrimp came with a very good cocktail sauce. I would like to tell you how the baked fish was, but my wife ate it before I could sample, which definitely means it was really good. Meals come with a buttered piece of rye bread and a decent coleslaw, and they cost about $ 10 each. We ate at the bar, and really had a great time. There is one other thing I have to mention, and that is the expansive views of West Allis from this busy corner. It is a pretty nice location, and a fun bar to visit. I would not hesitate to go back, and I hope to see other reviews soon.

I’ve only been here a couple of times, but it was a good time on both occasions. Granted I met up with a group of women who were buying me shots, but still… it was fun. It’s a nice bar. They tend to have pretty decent blues/southern rock bands play. The bar is nicely laid out and never too crowded. Drink prices were good and the drinks themselves were stiff. Clientele tends to be local people from the neighborhood and people that know them. So it’s mostly a 30+ crowd with a good mix of men and women. I’ve never been there early in the night though so I can’t comment on that. I need to get back here soon for some more good times.
