Oshkosh has some amazing neighborhood bars, and I’ve dedicated myself to spending time in ‘bars named after people’, in my quest to further understand our rich Wisconsin culture.  These names are icons of the Oshkosh tavern scene: Pete’s Garage Bar, Bob's Tails End, Jerry's Bar, and Deb’s Spare Time! At each bar, you’ll see the owner(s) on a daily basis, you’ll meet fascinating characters with tales to tell, and you’ll sustain yourself with crazy-good bar food + drinks.

Does today’s whirlwind tour whet your appetite for more? Stay tuned for deep dives into our tavern four-pack, or head out today to:

📍 Pete’s Garage Bar, 1514 Oregon Street
