It was a bit crowded on a night with such lovely weather, but that just meant the fish fry was unbelievably fresh!
Fantastic fish roast! As long as they're open and serving, I'll make sure to stop by!
I absolutely love their broasted chicken, and the owners are fantastic!
Stay away unless you are willing to get spoiled forever by there amazing fish fry. In fact don't even come into Belleville on fridays because they lure you for miles around with the amazing aroma. Seriously though. Don't let the line bother you. It seems crazy long but they turn tables fast and it's worth 10 or 15 minutes. The best coleslaw anywhere ever. I don't even like coleslaw but I'd eat there's by the plate full.
Friday night fish and Saturday night chicken at Borland's Tavern in Belleville, Wisconsin is not only a hidden secret in Dane County, it is a right of passage for those who are in the know. This is an amazing no nonsense place to eat on Friday and Saturday night. Cost is cheap and the food is divine. It is arguably the best Friday night fish fry in the area. Be sure to order a glass of Squirt with your meal and enjoy drinking it in one of their 5 oz. glasses. And end the meal with a hot (and I mean HOT) fudge Sundae. The staff in this place is always friendly and the decor, while dated and kitschy, is exactly what some restaurants in Chicago spend thousands of dollars to emulate. At Borlands, though, like the food and the friends, it is 100% genuine. And I think Jen M. from Oak Creek (see her review below) is a troll. And if she's not, she can go suck a lemon because I have never, ever experienced what she is describing and I can't count the number of times I've eaten at Borland's. It is quite literally in the hundreds.
