The 8th Street Grill is newly remodeled for 2008! A large wooden bar, state of the art sound system, and HUGE new tap list of 32 Taps (concentration on seasonal beers)!

The 8th Street Grill is busiest for lunch and its after work crowd. Home of older and more upscale patrons, the 8th Street Grill is medium sized and a casual place to hang, sip some beers, watch the game, and catch up with co-workers. In the summer, when they open up the doors to the street, the 8th Street has one of the nicer patios in downtown. Plus, large heaters make this patio 3-season and also comfortable for winter time smoking. The 8th Street is famous for its active (but not crazy) happy hours and lunches, but tends to wind down after dinner time.

Beer, beer and more beer! If you like beer (and I do like beer) You'll like this place. The food is really good (especially at the price point) and the staff is friendly and helpful. The server that looks kinda like Harry Potter freaks me out a little bit, but then again someone once told me I look like Tiger Woods and I'm a 40 year-old Asian-American woman. Judge not I guess! I'm sure he's very nice.

Seriously awesome beer and wine selection! Great staff, only four stars because the dreamboat gm left to start his own restaurant in Wisconsin!

This place is great. A good mix of people, great food (onion rings are delicious), friendly staff, and awesome drink specials. In the summer, they open up the big wall windows to make the whole place almost outdoors. It gets kind of crowded after work, but its never too loud to chill.
