Market Place Tavern - Brookfield — Restaurant in Brookfield

My friend and I dined there 4/23 around 4pm. The restaurant was pretty empty so we told the hostess/server that we would be dining by the bar. When we sat at a table by the bar he said, “Wow you you threw me for a loop, I thought you were sitting at the bar.” I asked another server to clarify whether these tables were bar tables or not, she said that’s yes they are bar tables, but typically reserved for larger parties. She reassured us that we were fine where we were sitting and we don’t have to move. We sat for a few mins and had to ask one of the bartenders for a menu, because the other server took the other menus away. We finally got water & asked if we could order. One of the servers/bartenders came to take our order, we asked if we could order wings. She said “we’re low on wings, but if you want to order a full size, we can do that.” My question is are Happy Hour wings different from Main Menu wings? It was just a very disappointing experience. This is maybe my 6th or 7th dining experience in the last few months and this experience has made me not want to come for either Happy Hour or Dinner in the main dining room. We ended up paying for our drinks and left within them more than half full due to the (lack of)...

First time here this evening, and I wasn't exactly blown away. While the staff was courteous and more than accomodating, the food was not great. I got the Brookfield Tavern burger which is essentially a beef patty wrapped in pizza dough then baked. In concept this was a good idea, but in practice the rendered fat from the beef has nowhere to go and just makes the dough greasy. The burger itself was cooked precisely to medium, which was nice. That said it must have just come out of the oven since it was about a million degrees. So my feelings on the burger were mixed. My son got the mussels as his meal and he was pretty disappointed. Many of the shells came from the kitchen broken, leaving pieces throughout the dish. Moreover the mussels were gritty. He did like the sauce though. What is particularly disappointing about the whole thing is that there are all the parts of everything you would want in a restaurant. A cozy location on a well-travelled road. A fun, if dimly-lit, sports bar theme. Friendly and hard working servers. Even the ideas for the dishes are good. The only thing that's missing is proper execution. I probably...

This has become our amazing go to restaurant near Brookfield. My husband and I first discovered this little gem when we were looking for homes in the area. It didn't look like anything fancy, but cute, quaint and clean. That worked for us. We expected a burger and fries. But wow! What an amazing place this is! It all starts with the manager John, who I wish I could adopt or marry LOL The wait staff is fantastic. The food is incredible and so much more amazing than you could ever anticipate. The brussel sprouts with prosciutto, burrata and fig is out of this world, and we have literally tried about half the menu already and one thing is just better than the next. They don't just give you food, they prepare it with bursting flavor and abundant volumes of food. It's very difficult to eat an entire meal there without bringing home half of it at least. We now travel an hour and a half just to get up there from our home in New Jersey, and it's well worth it. This is definitely our favorite, reasonably priced and super duper happy place! You just have to try this place and it will become your...
