“ This is a great place! The food is fantastic and everyone is always so nice. They have a garlic cheddar burger that's unlike any burger I've ever had....it's awesome! We've been there many times over the past 6 or 7 years...looking forward to going there many more times! ”
“ We were here from out of town. Found this menu online, WOW, very inexpensive. Food was great. Lots of tv's to watch, lots of room to move around. There was only 1 waitress but she was a trooper and did a pretty good job waiting on everyone. Will come again when we're in town. ”
“ Amazing food and staff! Parking is a bit hard but still worth it! I absolutely love this place, I would HIGHLY recommend the Josh Burger!! ”
“ Had the Southwest Chipotle Wrap and it was amazing! I try and come here during the day as the crowd here at night gets a bit loud and last time I was here at night there was an argument that escalated into a shoving match, but easy, chill crowd during the day. Food choices are burgers, wraps, pizzas, and lots of fried stuff! Lots of gaming machines and decent seating ”
“ I traveled from out of state to finally see in person some of the places my husband enjoyed in a previous life whilst in the Marines. I am blown away by the warm welcome we received at Bucketheads, years later! I finally was able to see/touch/feel the camaraderie that my husband has spoken so highly of here at this local bar and restaurant! Everyone in this bar deserves some sort of praise, the staff in the front and the kitchen were great, the customers were friendly and the owner very kind! If you're ever in the area, you NEED to stop at Bucketheads for a quick beer and some amazing cheese curds! You can quite literally find a place this great, "ONLY IN WISCONSIN" ”
“ We stopped coming to Bucketheads about a year ago due to long wait times (often over an hour), lack of check-ins, and overall frustrating service. Tonight, we decided to give it another shot because we’ve always loved the Josh and Seth burger—and we’re so glad we did! The service was PHENOMENAL. Amber and Joe were incredibly attentive, the restaurant was clean, and the food was absolutely delicious. Bucketheads has definitely won our business back! ”
“ Stopped by Bucketheads for lunch after visiting Rhinelander Brewing. We were really impressed with the very affordable pricing. The garlic cheddar bacon burger and sweet potato fries were both excellent. Our waitress was also super friendly. Great overall experience! ”
“ Outstanding service every time, highly proactive & considerate. A pleasant selection of food, don’t be afraid to try different things! They do more than just burgers well. Their BBQ pulled pork quesadilla is my personal favorite! ”
