Route 20 Outhouse

Traveled an hour plus twice in past month to come here. Great concert venue. Great bartenders — friendly and work their tail off. Foods rather good, if they decide to serve you!!! Here last Friday night two hours before show — hostess tells us no tables — tells us too late — tough. Go to bar and mgmt telling staff to take ALL the chairs away 2 HOURS before show. VERY IRRESPONSIBLE to not let people get food before drinking. Management IDIOTS! Staff — excellent!

This is a great venue to see bands. You can’t go wrong with a Philly, cheeseburger, chicken fingers or prime rib. Great choice of beer. Bar staff is wonderful. Rated a 3 because they take the bars tools and the hostess was a «B»! Management clearly doesn’t care about the customer, taking chairs away 2+ hours before a show.

Here to perform on their stage once again, and dinner there was part of the plan. I ordered a TALL Scotch Old Fashioned (and dontcha just Love the civilized way you can order a Yock in Wisco? TALL! and they MEAN it!) a Bowl of the Chilli and a Roast Beef on a Pretzel Roll, The Chilli was mean bowl of Red, mostly meat with a few beans, Texas Style. I had them add raw chopped onions but NO cheese. I think Cheese on Chilli (Except for Cincinnati style) is Blasphemy. The Brew had a nice easy burn-​nothing drastic, but what REALLY got my tastebuds going was the nice swipe of sweet rippling through. Not enough to be cloying, but a welcome balancer to the Chile Pepper kick. Halfway through the bowl, I kinda wished I had swung with a nice Hoppy Ale, ‘cos that would have put a nice bow on the Chilli. The Roast Beef on Pretzel had a good load of tasty meat, a little schmear of Mayo, served cold. The Preztel Bun was WAY fresh and of supreme quality. Looking back, the Old Fashioned was VERY well made, too. Server Brittany was right on the ball.
I’m going to throw another star, ‘cos the quality was WAY up there this time. And if any of you have any cognitive dissonance believing I’m kissing this place’s ass, ‘cos I had played there as an artist and wish for a return trip, think again. I ain’t Elton John, but suffice it to say, I don’t need to suck up to anyone. And we paid for the food and booze.
There’s a very famous old-​line Resto/​Roadhouse/​Concert venue a few miles South of this place on I-​41, whose quality, I believe, has been eclipsed by the Outhouse. Get off on Exit 333 and go west a few blocks when you’re transversing ‘twixt Greater Chicago and Milwaukee. Then Stop at the Gas Station just East (On the other side of the Culvers) and pick up an O & H Kringle to take home!

Kimmy was my waitress … very attentive. an A pluse person to have as your server… the burger was very fresh and well cooked… And the chicken dumpling soup is awesome

Nothing special, but decent food and good service. Great place if you are staying at the Holiday Inn and want some where close.

This food is so good. Had the bison burger with sautéed onions and cheese, cod sandwich and coleslaw as the side our waitress recommended.
Really delicious. Fast service. Good prices. Not a chain. Nice!

Its a great atmosphere to party and catch a band on the weekends, but the service in the dinning area is marginal to poor and the prices are pretty steep. They charge for anything extra on a burger (yes even mayo) which agitates me.

The service, the food and the atmosphere were all fantastic. We were looking for a spot to eat on the way to the airport that wasn’t canned food or an overdone chain and this hot the spot! Thanks to Devina for being such an awesome server!

Really like this place, super friendly folks along with the excellent service. The food ain’t bad either. I will come back when ever I’m in the neighborhood, tonight was my third visit.

Here to have dinner and see live music. Service blows. Food average. Every time I have asked for something (currently waiting on check) I have had to ask at least twice. Nice people, just under staffed.

Went here for to Jana Kramer concert. The bar/​restaurant was really nice, freshly updated & spacious. They have a nice outdoor patio too.
The menu was mostly pub food but satisfying. They offer a lot of side options for their entrees. The burger I got was freshly pressed, not frozen.
We watched the concert from the balcony which was since for us «older» people.

Came for lunch on a Friday. Looks like a fun place on a weekend night. Hamburger was fresh and juicy, and yes, you have to pay extra for tomatoes and condiments. Roll was fresh baked. Cheese curds were a delight. Service was adequate.

This place is a great place to get a drink. Clean, friendly environment. Drinks can be pricy and the food is too. They don’t have a huge menu, but the food they do serve is quality and fresh. I haven’t attended any of their concerts, but my friends insist it’s a Hell of a time.

I liked what they had done with the place. Has an older feel with newer modern amenities. Drinks were fair prices (not cheap bar prices but not expensive restaurant prices) the atmosphere was enjoyable and I like what they did with the outside.

We are visiting from Phoenix AZ and on our way out of Milwaukee i Unilocal restaurants, and we came across this place we where pleasantly surprise the food was good and the service was acceptable. i was unable to give 5 stars for the following reasons. server was ok but seemed annoyed we were there. i will say she was prompt and courteous, (bare minimum) but we where 1 of only 2 tables in the whole place. Next on of the things that cause them not to get 5 starts was, we got was the fried green bean appetizer and the dip it came with was less than an ounce so i ask for more and was charged .75 for even less than what i got the first time. same thing happen with a salad serviced at our table. it is kind of a shame makes you feel like you just order off of the $ 1 menu at McDonalds.
i will say there fish sandwich was plentiful and tasty.

I stopped here tonight. I was wanting to get out of the truck & try something different then the normal truck stop food.
I had a few beers since I was gonna be here for the weekend. My waitress did not have much knowledge about what they sold. I asked several questions and she could not answer my questions. She had to go ask someone twice. She had no product knowledge as far as the beer they have on tap. (They have some locally brewed beers)
The food was pretty good. Good flavor on the burger. I didn’t care for their seasoned fries.
BUT, then I get the bill. They charge extra for mayo & tomatoes on a burger. Even though the menu says it is included. It does say they charge extra for cheese. BUT, CHARGING FOR MAYO???
Plus, draft beer is $ 4.50 each.
I wont be back.

If you’re hungry and you approach the sign for Gas & Food (Kwik Pick, McD, BK, Petro, Subway & Culver’s) but nothing sounds appealing, take your chances and get off the exit. Unfortunately, the green food sign does not include this awesome place. Unless the owner gets his name on there, it is easily overlooked by people passing through on 94.
Nothing inside or outside the restaurant resembles or smells like an Outhouse. Things may be different on the nights when crowds gather to support their band. I don’t know for sure, I’ve never been and don’t ever plan on coming here for that reason.
I noticed the sharp, clean, modern design and it looks like a great venue. During the week, the TVs show a mixture of sporting events and advertises upcoming performers.
They have a second level balcony area where you can sit around the perimeter overlooking the band or comedian and their fans. Outdoor patio dining is an option.
The food was really good. The service was nice. I like the ambiance and think the layout is pretty cool.
My only concern is that there are only 2 bathroom stalls which took a long time to flush (hold down) and settle. That tells me it’s very likely for the civilized bathroom to turn into a discusting outhouse/​port-​a-​potty environment anytime this place gets crowded.

Food is good «bar and grill food.» Nothing spectacular, but good, yummy eats. Good service, kid-​friendly, casual. Also has a bar. Just a couple seconds off I-​94. Convenient on and off freeway.

Although the food is good it was cold. They were understaffed and the last meal arrived after everyone was done. They did not charge us for that meal. I will return, but having one waitress for the entire upper deck on Saturday isn’t good planning.

The food was alright, not much on the menu but I really only came here for the concert haha best Valentine’s day gift EVER!!!
