What People Are Saying
from Google"If I could give more than 5 stars, I would! We LOVED this tiny little bar. We stumbled on it by accident but the bartender Brian was so nice and friendly that we ended up going there twice in one trip! And definitely get the $4 taco. Actually, get two because they are SO good. 10/10 - great dive bar, funny bartender, and good drink prices. Oh yeah, and it’s apparently home of the “greenie”…….which is a green vodka drink that tastes like a lime popsicle. Now I know! Cash only, but they have an atm."
"Cash only... Oops didn't know that, thank God my friend is coming to pay for me😬. Nice place, bartender was nice."
"Definitely a great place to stop for hospitality. Known for its greeny. If you like to have a drink or a few to many it's certainly gonna do it's trick or you will either way it's a must stop if you have never been to jaros on the river. Bars not very big but its visited by everyone. Just an ol school friendly downtown hole in the wall bar that's well known check it out"
"Start a tab? No. Sugar free anything? No. Get some food? No. Not until 4pm. Ok cool I’ll wait for the cook to come. 4:15 “hey is the cook here ?” Yes. Mind you, there was maybe 3 other people in the bar. I got my mini corn dogs and they were so over cooked, they were hard to chew. I love a good dive bar, in fact I work at a dive bar. This one isn’t it. Maybe a better bartender would be good?"
"Great cheese curds! The Greenie was tasty and it was a fun neighborhood bar to enjoy a night out with friends."
