I was visiting a friend over the weekend in Menomoniee Falls. Our first stop was Sals. What an experience. Within 5 minutes of sitting down a sloppy drunk old women was falling off the bar stool next to me and put her hands in my drink, obviously trying to get us in a fight with her male companion. All things one might look for in a good dive bar, but at 7:30 pm?, and then for the bartender to watch the whole thing and do nothing as we were basically forced to leave our drinks we didn’t finish.

I came here on a Friday after work and it was a very popular gathering place for local employees. The owners really took care of the large group by setting up a corner with cheese, veggies, and help-yourself chicken wings! The staff regularly checked with the group to see if they were happy and thanked them for coming. Really seemed like they cared. I was there for the drinks. Had a brandy old fashion. The bartender was very responsive and made my drink quickly. Looked like he maybe used an old fashion mix instead of muddling real stuff. For $ 4.00, it was well priced. Small glass and too much ice kept me from loving it. Overall good place. The place is a typical old bar that is worn, but the staff keep this place feeling local-friendly.

What more could you ask for? It’s almost gourmet bar food, no frozen stuff from what I can tell. Great beer selection. Classic Wisco pub feel with an updated style and I’m a sucker for cream city brick construction.

This is my 4th visit to Sal’s since my company moved to Menomonee Falls. I have ordered the grilled chicken breast every time and it is the best chicken sandwich I have ever had. Bun is lightly grilled with fresh lettuce and tomato with the most moist chicken breast. Simply amazing!!! Co-workers also rave about the burgers that I will try next. Bar tenders are always very friendly… definitely try out if you are in the area.

Sal’s! People from my high school seem to dig this spot. Pretty dang solid for a suburban dive bar, methinks. This pub(and grill?) lives right on the corner of Main + Appleton. I ended up here w/my brother on a St. Patrick’s Day for Guinness and good times not too terribly long ago. Additionally, I definitely ran into some folks from high school and saw some of my old teachers, too. Hilarious and fun if not a touch unnerving, but it’s all good. Requisite dive bar solidness abounds at this watering hole: jukebox, pool table, regulars… you know the drill. Owned by the same folks that own Su Casa? Their website link on FB seems to suggest it. It also suggests these owners may be the new Menomonee Falls hotness, whatever that means. Huzzah for non-chains and huzzah for local watering holes!
