The owner Brent is a top notch fella. Took great care of us. Stop in and enjoy an adult beverage, you won't regret it.

We enjoyed our time at Missouri Tavern during a packer Game! The bartender shared the history of the bar which made the experience better! We had the chance to try local distillery shots, super yummy! We did shake of the day and both won a free drink a few they have pull tabs! A true Wisconsin Gem!

Incredibly reasonably-priced drinks. $1 domestic taps on happy hour Monday through Friday until 7pm. Titos was $4.75. They have pool, darts, video poker, pull tabs and a touchtunes. What else do you need. Pricing for one advertised drink was different, but the bartender did provide a free sample of it, so I don't have any complaint. From parking and friendly patrons.

Stopped here a half hour before they opened and they owner was kind enough to let us in and have a drink while he got things ready for opening. Really nice vibe to the place, just feels good. Good beer and drink selection. Next time we will come for a meal.

***Update: pool table is back in action. (Probably has been for a long while, but don’t frequent often.). Nice crowd, good mix of music, hand crafted spirits, instead of the sugary pre-mixes. Enjoyed playing pool, sad the table was down last time and hope it's fixed soon. Also, there's Foosball and it wouldn't be a true tavern if there wasn't pull-tabs.

Great place to stop for a couple drinks with friends. Drinks are made well. Fantastic staff. Does get warm when there are a lot of people inside.
