The Legendary Monarch Public House

Delicious food and exceptional service in a fascinating historical building. There was so much to see here truly, one of the best restaurants we have ever been to!

Simply the best bar in Wisconsin, possibly the entire upper Midwest. Beautiful space, great food, friendly staff. It doesn't get better.

5 stars is not enough. Seriously one of the best places I've ever eaten. My husband and I got quite a lot of food because everything sounded delicious! We shared the Irish potato soup and Dingle Bay Dip. Both were so good we almost licked the dishes clean. I had the Shannon plate which was amazing and my husband had the Steak and Bacon pie which he said was fantastic. Even the drinks were awesome! The **** Mary was perfect (I'm very picky with my **** Marys). A little kick without being too spicy. My husband had the Great Golden Lager. I'm not a beer person at all, my husband usually gets my chaser for my ****'s, but wow was it good! I almost got a glass myself it was so good. The staff were just absolutely phenomenal. It was a quiet night and we were the only ones in there so the staff would come over and make conversation with us. They are easy to talk to and very down to earth. As soon as you walk in you can feel the love and passion they've put into everything about this place. It almost feels like going to someone's place to have a great home-cooked meal and connect with the people around you. They even had trivia cards at the table which we loved because we talked and laughed with each other instead of being on our phones. Back to the food though because I can't explain how delicious it is. The Irish Potato soup. Best. Thing. Ever. I almost went back to ask if they would fill a thermos with soup. I'm so sad I don't live closer because I would survive on food from here for the rest of my life.

This bar is a good spot for any beer lover. Me and my wife stopped in and were welcomed very warmly by the staff. Good food too! Thank you for the good evening celebrating our honeymoon.

We had a delightful visit! The Lionsgate Stew and pizza were delicious. We got the butter garlic sauce yum! The bartender, Joe, was friendly and answered all of our questions about the bar, owners, history, town, etc. The beer was great. He taught us about the Raptor program and shared his experiences in protecting local raptors. We will definitely be back to try other items on the menu and to support this lovely small business. A must stop for anyone traveling through. Thank you for the great food and experience!
