A great local place with great food and a very comfortable environment. the cheese curds were a treat as well was the burgers! We will be back.
First time stopping in here. They were understaffed just like everywhere else but the staff were friendly and the food was great. Liked their choices for beer too
Very nicely decorated with booths on the side, old brick walls and ornate wood features. Great food and friendly service. We will be back. One of the owners stopped by to chat and ask how everything was. The Christmas decorations are up now and are very nice.
Food was tasty and everyone got a good portion. Got the reuben, and it was absolutely delicious. The saurkraut was pretty mild and could have used a little bit more of a punch, but that's just my personal taste. My grandma got the cuban and loved it. Grandpa got a smokey burger and I was surprised there was any left over from the way he was scarfing it down. Wait staff were pleasant. They were training a new staff member who was on top of everything (refills, boxes, she even noticed when we were having trouble reading the specials and came and reread them for us) aside from a tiny slip up of forgetting a pen with the check, which was practically a non-issue. Will definitely be back!
My sister and I are in town visiting for the NFL Draft and this place is such a gem! We were lucky enough to meet Tommy (one of the owners) and he showed us so many cool photos of players that have been to the tavern. He also gave us great local recommendations. We both got a salad and they were delicious. All of the staff were so kind and the atmosphere is great. Definitely check this place out!
Outstanding! You have got to give this place a try, very friendly staff, the burgers are to die for and the atmosphere is wayyy cool! A definite return because there's so much to offer on the menu 😋 Enjoy...
We loved it here! You'll definitely want to sit in the back area for the warmest vibe. The food and service were excellent. If I'm ever in the Green Bay area again, I'll certainly go back!
We had spent the night in a hotel De Pere near Nicky's Lionhead. We needed some dinner and did a little research and decided to give it a try. We had a great time sitting at the bar meeting some local patrons. We were watching a dog show on the TV behind the bar, it was great. Our server was on top of things and was a pleasure to work with. Our food was great and my steak sandwich was cooked perfectly to my request. The bar is very inviting and it has a great vibe. We recommend stopping here if you are in the area and looking for a few drinks and/or food. We will be back when we are in the area.
We really enjoyed our meal. We picked a great time at about 3:30 pm. It was quiet and peaceful. The ambiance here is really awesome! We got chili that was mild and not too spicy but very flavorful! Of course noodles are given unless you ask otherwise (Would it be Wisconsin if it were any other way?) We both had burgers. I had the build your own that came on a potato roll and my hubby got the Smokey burger. Each of them was cooked perfectly and juicy! So so good! The fries were great as well! They were flavorful and not greasy at all! All in all I would give this place a 5/5!
Nicky's served us a decent meal. The atmosphere is cozy with moody lighting. It definitely has pub vibes and most importantly has Guinness on tap. It's in the business district but has a sizable free parking lot out back. Efficient and friendly service.
