All the beef they serve is Scottish Highlander. The steaks are awesome there! I really love their blooming onion thing and the sauce that comes with it. They have a whisky menu for those who enjoy that. My wife and I consider their Friday night fish fry to be the best in Waupaca. I would give this place an excellent... More

We were staying at a VRBO in the area and were so glad that T-Dub's was recommended, (even though It was a bit hard to find). We started with the 11 Beer on tap Sampler. We're not even beer drinkers but thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment of it. New Glarus Spotted Cow was the winner :-). We shared the bruschetta appetizer... More

T-Dub's has been one of my favorite places in Waupaca for several years. In fact, it was my "go-to" place when travelling to Waupaca on business. However, the last two times I was there the food was very disappointing. Most recently I tried the Thai Peanut pasta with chicken. The flavor was delicious however, the dish was drowning in sauce....

Have been going to TW Martins since they opened years ago. Their menu has changed little over the years so there is really little that interests me on the menu anymore. I miss their Cuban sandwich and Irish stew that are no longer on the menu. The food is generally good but at times can be uneven (chefs come and... More

We had a party of 5. Now the location of this restaurant was so interesting since it is a building that used to construct horse carriages. Wall are stone, lots of really old beautiful wood, comfortable room though lighting was lacking (candles would have helped read the menu) but service was GREAT. Severla of our dishes did arrive rather dry:... More

I recently selected this restaurant for a special family dinner. I have been to Waupaca many times but never knew about this place until I researched it through TripAdvisor. (It is tucked away, and hence easily missed.) They took a reservation for a party of 10, which was great. Upon our arrival just before 7pm on a Saturday, the place... More

This place defies the odds. Always busy. Always tasty. Always fun. Working off a pub-house menu they start with a succulent cheesesteak (which I would not mention were it not so good) and end with a variety of entrees that would pass muster in any eatery in downtown Chicago. The Beer Battered Haddock on Friday nights though is unnaturally yummy... More

If you dont know the area it is a bit hard to find but it is worth finding. Great food, nice wine list and some different beers on tap. It can get crowded on a Friday night so you may want to make reservations.

Over the past two years we have eaten here at least 20 or more times and have tried many different items on the menu. We have truly enjoyed the flavor and quality of each selection. A definite "Would Recommend".
