Crown & Common - Green Bay, WI

11/15/2021

0 Comments

 
Saturday afternoon. My husband just got back from his field day for his hunting certification. We were both hungry, and we couldn’t decide where to go. So, we made a list of restaurants and bars in town that we hadn’t visited yet and rolled a die. The number seven was face up, and number seven on our List was Crown and Common-- a relatively new bar in the area that I only noticed on my radar shortly after lockdown.

Crown and Common sits in the district of Main Street where a lot of new businesses have started to pop up in recent years-- particularly restaurants and bars. They built up an interesting patio area for more space for business to follow post-lockdown restaurant business practices, which is perhaps one of the best things about the bar. The covered patio has long and wide tables with a little firepit in the middle to keep folks warm in the winter if they go outside, and the garage door type windows raise to bring some air in in the warmer months.

It was the type of day for the garage doors to be open, and the Brewers playoff game was on the TV, making it the perfect afternoon to drop into a bar for some drinks and snacks. The prices at Crown and Common are incredible for the quality of mixed drinks and the variety of beer is respectably low. Every mixed drink is served in a tall glass the size of a draft cup of beer for almost always only six dollars.

The food is a different story. While also reasonably priced, I’ll be honest. The quality of the food isn’t exactly something to write home about. Crown and Common is a bar first with food to keep you in your seat a little while longer. They do very interesting specials every day of the week that my husband and I didn’t participate during our visit which may prove more enticing than the regular menu to future patrons. I know their taco Tuesday specials each week are what kept me following their facebook page to watch their progress.
