What’s Special About Us?

We’ve been proudly serving the Oshkosh community since 1911. We’re not just a bar, we’re the place that people go to soak up classic Wisconsin tradition, while enjoying time with friends. We have a rich history within the Oshkosh community as the oldest family owned business in town (112 years). We’re also a staple in the sturgeon spearing community and proud to be the official home of the Otter Street Fishing Club.
