Things to do in Madison, Wisconsin (WI): The Best Bars & Clubs
The sprawling University of Wisconsin sets the tone for this college town of cafes, bookstores, brewpubs, numerous restaurants (more per capita than anywhere else in the U.S.) and a good share of cultural and historical attractions. Stunning glacial waterways make the City of Lakes one of the more picturesque state capitals in the country. More than 250 parks offer residents and tourists plenty of recreational areas to choose from. If you visit the campus, be sure to try the famous Babcock Ice Cream at Memorial Union or Babcock Hall, before or after a visit to the Elvehjem Museum of Art's collection of Greek, Roman and Egyptian antiquities. And to really get into the college spirit, head over to State Street's eclectic range of ethnic restaurants. Be sure to try the mouth-watering bratwurst sandwich on a homemade bun at State Street Brats, a student favorite. At the end of State Street, the white granite, Roman Renaissance-style Capitol dominates the skyline and offers an observation platform for views of the city and lakes.

They have a Wednesday night special....Prime Rib Sandwich. For $15.00, you get a at least a 12 - 14 oz. prime rib, tender, lean with 2 slices of Texas toast, and a HUGE helping of hash browns. You can have onions and/or cheese added to your hash browns...no extra charge. You can have a "plain" prime rib or a rib SMOTHERED in mushrooms...no extra charge. I WILL be going back, The bartender took care of her customer effectively AND did the cooking, Great attitude and clean place to eat at. Plan on taking home a doggie box. GREAT PLACE AND FOOD!
