Mid Town Pub

If you’re in town Friday night, going to a Wisconsin fish-fry is a must. The bride’s personal favorite is Mid Town Pub in Middleton, WI. (She recommends the lemon grilled cod and the clam chowder. If you’re extra hungry, order Chicken Bonerz as an app!) If you see the owner, Joel, tell him “Britley” sent you. Arriving late and hungry Friday night? This is the place for you!
