Waypoint consistently has had very good service employees waiting on tables, at least from the perspective of being friendly and helpful. I always feel like the coworkers have positive relationships with each other which makes dining there more pleasurable. The food is very good and the choices are varied. I am becoming a heart healthy eater. Or, rather I am a heart healthy eater and they have several choices of fish and chicken items for which to choose. As you know, they are located on the lake, so the ambiance is quite good. Once, however, I came on a very cold day and the walk from the parking lot was longer than I wanted. Yet, if you go outside in the WI winter it is your own fault if you're cold

An always stop when we visit Madison. Fun to dock the boat and head up to Waypoint public house. The cheese curds and brisket quesadilla are a must. It's fairly loud but a relaxed atmosphere easy to get a table with options for large groups. Would recommend and also have a good sized beer list.

I came here for the fish on a night celebrating getting a new apartment in the area. My partner and I both ordered the Friday fish fry and were pleased. We also got an order of cheese curds. The fish was delicious and we always talk about going back. It was a bit pricier than some other options in the area, but I think you pay for the location and the ambiance. Inside was really chic. We sat outside and while it was a bit muggy (thanks midwest summer), there was nothing more relaxing than being right on the water. There was no belt line traffic deterring our view at that time. Service was pleasant and we were served in a timely manner. All around a great experience.

They made pb&j smash was the highlight burger for burger week. I took out lunch from here. I asked for the burger week special. I think I got pb&J brie burger instead of pb&j smash burger. Interesting they dont know what is their specialty burger. It doesn't matter too much to me. Brie burger was equally good. Pb&J only meant they will provide you with a small bowl of pb&j sauce, which one can pour over the burger while eating. It made the burger a messy burger. Good I ate it at home. Otherwise it would have been an embarassing sight.

The fish I got was SO good! The mango salsa on the top was excellent. Good vibes inside. Parking can be a challenge and you have to walk a bit to get inside.
