The place to go if your stomach is growling for beer and food.
7 hour shift. 1 hour work meeting. 6 hour drive. I was in dire need of beer/food and sleep once I arrived in Eau Claire to hang with my friend Tim for a few days. It was close to 9:30pm when I arrived and our choice of places was pretty limited. Luckily The Growler Guys was still open.
Upon entering a completely empty bar, the bartender greeted us and got us up-to-date on their beer offerings and a contest among local breweries they were having. Tim and I tried a few different samples before settling on a drink and some food. The contest intrigued me so I took a flight of the contestants. Tim grabbed a cider and we sat and caught up on life and nerdy things.
While I was sipping my samples and Tim was enjoying his cider, our food came out. I got their Pizza Hero sub and Tim got a Calzone. The sub was okay at best. It could’ve been cooked a bit longer as it came out lukewarm and was floppy. For it being a ‘toasted sub’, it was lacking the toasting for sure. It wasn’t the fullest of flavor either but I wasn’t in a time and place to be needy about food. Tim said he enjoyed his calzone but it wasn’t anything to rave over.
The samples I had ranged from great to not good. I don’t remember which ones I got but two of them were cream ales and one of those was a coconut one and that was just not my jam. The lager was decent as well as the other non-cream but overall, not typically beers I would order (aside from the lager). I cast my vote for the lager as I turned in my glasses.
Any who, we sat there for about an hour and had the whole place to ourselves. A few people popped in and left but none really stuck around. I really enjoyed the vibe of the place. The bartender was fantastic at entertaining us for the little bit we were at the bar. I am addicted to milkcap pull tabs and he helped fix the machine so I could buy a few and share them with Tim. There is also a giant pile of board games to play if you come here with a group of people.
Speaking of that… if I lived in the area, this is definitely a place I would push my friends to come to for hanging out. Plenty of space for drinking and board gaming with 40+ beers on tap. This was definitely a good stop for the night and a good start to a short trip to Eau...

I visited for lunch, because of a cool program that they offer for local businesses (1/2 price for a business for the week). I am new to the area, so I got lunch.
The lunch experience was a nightmare from start to end. I arrived at 1130 and exactly 1 person was taking orders. I placed an order to go and it took way too long. I ordered the boneless wings and fries, and again it took a while to them to be prepared. It took 30 min from the time i walked through the door to receiving my order. (Sadly this was the best part)
When I got home and opened up the food. OMG! These overly processed (looked exactly like Tysons buffalo boneless wings from your frozen section at walmart) were burnt on one side and absolutely disgusting. They were un-edible and I had to throw most of them away.
I am sure their beer scene is amazing, and appreciate their lunch offer, but I will never step foot into their...
