A “classic Wausau dive bar.” Great burgers (meat from local shop) and wings. Friendly bar staff. Cheap drinks and decent beer selection. Always a fun, satisfying stop.

We were in town to pick up a new car. My wife wanted cheese curds for lunch as we are from Iowa, and best we can get most places would be Culver’s. When you walk in, this is an old corner bar. Yes, I am...sure everyone knows your name place, 1 hi top table with 4 chairs, pool table, juke box and bar stools. We sat st the bar, and the menu was taped to it. We were welcomed with a smile and friendly greeting. They didn’t know our name but we were very welcome there. Order cheese curds. Plus a burger, rings and a couple of Mt Dew, (we had 300 miles to drive). Geese curds were from a local cheese dairy. Breaded, and fried at the bar. If you have ever had fresh cheese curds, you know they squeak. These were so fresh, they squeaked. Never in my life had I had fried curds that fresh. Meat for the hamburger was fresh ground and delivered daily, and the bun was from a local bakery. Seriously, if you want a great burger and curds, this is the place.More
Best burger in town! Also very good wings with a variety of homemade sauces. Friendly staff and cheap drinks. Classic “dive bar!” 👍🏼
Been coming here for years. Haven't been in late at night in a long time but still pop in in the afternoon and evening. BEST BURGERS EVER. Their beef is local, buns are from a bakery, they make their own pizzas, their cheese curds are...the best and their fries are good too. Bartenders are good too, the same ones have been here forever. Drinks are reasonable too. Unlike some "ultra classy" for lack of better trip advisor term place, can make a decent drink. If you get a double, it will be a good double. Some friends like to go to another place downtown, I think 4 bucks before tip for a budweiser is a joke, among other things. You can walk in here in a tie or hard manual labor attire, it's all good. If you want the best burger you'll probably ever have or just chill and have a drink, check it outMore
B&R has the best burgers, bloodies and wings around! The bartenders are always friendly. Great place for a drink and some food. Mushrooms are OUTSTANDING!
Hands-down best bar food in Wausau. We've had the burgers, pizza fries, and tenders - all are fantastic. Relatively cheap & fast service.
Well known in Wausau as a great place to get a burger and a beer. They also have daily lunch specials that are always interesting and tasty. It is obvious that the staff cares about the food they serve and are generally warm and welcoming...folks. I try to have lunch there everyday!More
Typically not my scene (or my friends' scene) as we usually prefer binge drinking, top hits and a dance floor but we still coming to B&R's for Monday wing nights, yum! There may be cheaper wing deals in wausau but these wings are larger and...deep fried. Sauces on the side so you don't have to get stuck w an order you don't like. But, you better get your order in during slower times or else you'll be waiting awhile for your wings - never realized how many people order food from here :) It is a small bar with limited seating and parking. Mentioned it isn't our typical bar scene but we have always been treated well by the friendly staff. Definitely worth stopping by if you're looking for something different than your normal spots.More
The burgers are top notch. The pizzas are great too and made in house. They pour a good stiff drink or a fair price.
Based on some of the reviews and being hungry for a good burger, we stopped here and were not disappointed. The bartender was friendly and helpful. We got a 421 burger with fries and a Deluxe burger with cheese curds. Delicious!
You cannot go wrong with B&R's daily specials. I have only been to the B&R's for the drinks, not the food, but from what I have heard, the food is very good. In addition to the daily specials, the bar service is exceptional. Although I...should note that the bar itself is very small. The only seating is at the bar.More
All 15 of us ate Burgers, Wings, poppers & rings. Some of us has beer and the rest had sodas. All of us were welcomed and we had a blast!
It happens that we had stopped recently at the new Red Robin in Wausau, only to be disappointed because their ventilation system failed, causing the restaurant to close. We asked the bartender there where we could go in town for a good burger and she...recommended B & R on the corner of Bridge and 6th. She said do not be scared by the appearance, trust me. Wow was she right. We were served fantastic burgers made with fresh beef bought locally. The french fries were fresh, HAND CUT fries done to perfection. This place is worth a stop.More
You won't get a martini here or even a decent glass of wine, but if you are craving a cold beer and good burger this is the place to go. Best of all if you're on a tight budget you're going g to love this...place even more.More
all are welcome, fresh burgers and local bakery made buns- no glitz or glamour, just the old style bar.
