Todd WeisrockJune 19, 2015The ultimate university college bar experience. Great white brats! I bartender here in 1989 and it hasn't changed much, including the owners, I'm told.
Jason FloodAugust 4, 2017Got the $5 Wednesday lunch special. It's a brat, fries and drink. Great brat, fries were a bit salty but good enough. Went solo but interesting atmosphere. Sure it could get wild at night.
Jamie IacobucciJuly 23, 2016Your classic college bar w/a wide variety of beers and a great menu of appetizers & burgers. Can't wait to get this layover again & have some sweater weather beverages at the outdoor patio!
Matthew TaubNovember 18, 2015Brats are great and they have a solid beer selection. They also have a secure phone charging station if you are low on battery.
State Street BratsApril 2, 2011Become Mayor and get free food until your over ridden. Sounds like a steal to me!!!!!!!! Stop in for a yummy red brat ( the red, white and blue is my all-time fave!)
Eric MathewsJune 24, 2014Cheddar Head Red Brat was excellent. Be sure to get a Spotted Cow to go with it.
🚂Chris🚃March 1, 2013Delicious brats (especially the red), beer, and sports... what more can you ask for?
One of the most fun drink specials in town is Brats' beer exchange on Mondays. Prices fluctuate like a stock market--the more you buy, the higher the price goes and vice-versa. Every now and then you- Audra Van LanenNovember 11, 2011Great local spot! I enjoyed the red brat & the pretzels! Best soft pretzels ever! Matt provides great service! :)
Yo dawg I heard you like watching sports...so we put some sports in your sports so you can watch sports while while you watch sports.
Great people watching on the patio. Good waffles fries.
Matt OFebruary 2, 2013Always stop by the State Street Brat when traveling to Madison. It is fantastic.
ClareFebruary 16, 2016food & beer were good. service great. the crowd that's drawn here isn't the best...
Amber WilhelmMarch 14, 2011Top your red brat with onions, chipotle mustard, and blue cheese dressing. Also grab some BBQ sauce for your waffle fries!
Dave TSeptember 10, 2011Everything is good. Burgers? Get the double. Come early to get a seat in weekends.
There's a bunch of EA Sports events here throughout the year. Game giveaways, food, T-Shirts, you name it.

Katie GallagherJanuary 5, 2013Nothing special, I'm sure it's good if your drunk. My waffle fries were weird and soggy. Someone I was with said the brat burger was good. They have Angry Orchard on tap
- Campus SocialiteJuly 6, 2011Tuesdays are flip night - guess the flip of the quarter right and get 75% off your drink order!
Aaron SilversOctober 4, 2011It is tough to choose if the red or the white brat is best. My suggestion? Order both. Read more
Amy Van MeterAugust 5, 2014Was super pumped getting here but soon disappointed. The bratwursts were mediocre at best and the nuclear wings were as mellow as if they had been tossed in ketchup. Nice but spacey servers.
BSSeptember 8, 2013They have a 10% check on special on quesadilla's... They don't have this item on the menu.
Off The QuadMarch 28, 2011$5 dollar Skyy Stiffies on Saturday are a must. But make sure you don’t miss Flip Night every Tuesday.

Jack MulqueenSeptember 27, 2010Flip Night on Tuesday nights gets hectic. Amazing tunes and beautiful people.
Must eat the sandwich that has the brat and the burger on the same bun! It is the best
