Last week, a new bar opened in Denver. Its name: Wally\u2019s Wisconsin Tavern<\/a>. It\u2019s a cross between a supper club and up north tavern, complete with mounted deer heads, \u201cvintage\u201d Blatz signs, and muddled old fashioneds. So congrats Wisconsin, you\u2019re officially a trend.<\/p>\n

James Weimann and his restaurant group, which is based in Seattle, have opened about a dozen other restaurants in Washington and Denver. That\u2019s a healthy little restaurant empire, and now the plan apparently is to capitalize on Wisconsin\u2019s awesomeness in a mass-produced, chain restaurant kind of way. There are plenty of Wally\u2019s t-shirts and hats<\/a> to purchase, just in case you need to rep your local \u201cdive\u201d bar.<\/p>\n

Facebook<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

To his credit, Weimann\u2019s family is from Sheboygan, including the namesake Wally, his father. So while this may seem like a blatant commercialization, at least the owner has roots here. According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel<\/em><\/a>, Weimann worked at a supper club in Sheboygan as a teenager. He took a scouting trip around southeastern Wisconsin to help plan the tavern and grab a vintage wedding photo of his parents. Clearly, this is a labor of love on top of a money-making venture.<\/p>\n

And well, it should make money hand over fist, because Wisconsin\u2019s taverns are just that amazing. Wally\u2019s will definitely attract former Wisconsinites in Denver, what with the shining beacons of Packers flags, brats, cheese curds and fish fries. Whether Coloradans who have never experienced a Wisconsin tavern will be on board remains to be seen, but they would if they know what\u2019s good for them.<\/p>\n

An early review<\/a> by Denver’s 303 Magazine<\/em> implies that locals will lap up the atmosphere: \u201cA scene that could otherwise risk kitsch feels not only legitimate but heartwarming. It is exactly the kind of place to eat comfort food and knock back a cold one \u2014 retro wood-paneling has never been so cozy in a restaurant.\u201d What they seem to call comfort food, we just call dinner. What they call retro wood paneling, we call walls. And borderline kitsch? I\u2019m sure they\u2019ll reach peak tavern decor, eventually.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
