Fermilab Users' Center - for employees and users

Celtic Crossings Irish Pub

Irish pub

Pints of stout, bric-a-brac, a cozy fireplace & weekly Irish music give this bar an Irish flavor.

Braveheart Pub

Bar

👍👍 Easily one of the best pubs for micro brews you'll find anywhere in the Midwest. I couldn't believe their selection on tap and the aged beer stored in their "beer vault." I'm thinking of a vacation to Sheboygan just you try them all. Do yourself a favor and grab a beer here. Trust me

Like other reviews; management, staff and even the patrons of this place are so welcoming...
