This was a really fun place. Great service. Great beer. Great food. I got the open face brisket with beer cheese soup. Absolutely amazing! Right combo of onion, pepper, & carrot chunks.
I had one of the tapped beers (Golden Strong Ale) and tasted 3 others from friends. Tons of others there. A double wide fridge of various beers. Buy 4 get 30% off all 4!
Had a really great time with friends. When we come back to Wisconsin we'll be there.

AMAZING and then some! Longtable Beer Cafe is an incredible place in its own right, and it was also a spectacular place to host (and dazzle) our nearest and dearest. We had a delicious, fun, and cozy rehearsal lunch with our family and friends, and they all couldn't stop raving about the food and beer. Matt, Andrea, and Justin (owners/manager) ROCKED! And are a huge reason why our event was so successful - they accommodated our party size (giving us the namesake long table as well as another table), helped us make food selections on time, and even gave us a complimentary bottle of an awesome sour beer to celebrate. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and are grateful to their spectacular hospitality.

Pulled Pork Burger with Coleslaw
Great place to get dinner and a beer! Awesome selection of beer on tap and in cans. Wine, seltzers, and nonalcoholic options available. We got a burger with chickpea salad and pulled pork sandwich with fries- both were good. Longtable has good options for vegetarians and vegans too! Lovely atmosphere with plenty of seating and all of the staff and employees were friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend if you’re in Middleton!

Good beer selection and cool atmosphere. Good appetizers as well. Service was fine, but the prices for entrees when compared to the quantity and quality of food you receive leaves a lot to be desired. Stay far, far, FAR away from the brisket bowl. Little chunks of processed brisket that are over cooked and grey in color. Unappetizing appearance and even worse flavor. Was actually disgusted by it. Probably won't be back.

I’ll admit I had really high expectations, but that’s because the rating on Google is so high. My hypothesis is that people love the gimmick of sitting at a long table and having a large beer list. I am not into the gimmick but that doesn’t effect my review. I am simply rating the entree that I ordered. I ordered the brisket bowl for $17. If you are familiar with bowl style entrees from a place like forage or Qdoba this is not that. I would say it was like nachos but in a bowl. It’s was 60% tortilla strips. The brisket I assumed would be the same style that would have been served if I had ordered the brisket alone, instead it was tiny cubes, like the size of a fingernail. I didn’t get to taste the sauce because there was maybe a splash. I’m so confused how they decided that this was a $17 item, or something that should be on the menu at all. I found probably 6 tiny piece of brisket that looked safe to eat, others were just fat or weirdly colored. As you can imagine with an extremely small piece of meat it was incredibly dry and tasted like nothing. I wouldn’t be able to keep a straight face as a waitstaff handing this to someone.

I love long table! Such a fun local casual vibe. A rather intense selection of beers and ciders to choose from in the cooler, but the adventure is fun and Matt/An Drea have curated an exceptional assortment!
Food is always highest quality in ingredients and preparation... It's not cheapo bar food so set your expectations for modest price and gourmet experience.
Shared"long tables" are fun and they create a lovely sense of community.

I went here for lunch, the service was friendly and good and there were plenty of available seats. I ordered the BBQ platter. The food looked really good, but sadly was lacking in flavor. It wasn't bad, just bland. I wish I would have taken a picture, it looked so good. To bad it didn't taste as good as it looked. The cheese curds were pretty good.

The service and atmosphere were wonderful. Employees very friendly and welcoming. The food was ok. But a good spot to meet friends and have drinks.

I have always heard good things about this place and finally decided to stop in with my partner and had a stellar lunch outing. Our server was phenomenal - the only complaint was that we received our appetizers before our beverages, although I'm still not sure whether or not we should have "self-served", as all their drinks are available in a refrigerated beer-shop style case for people to purchase. It'd be nice if the serving staff mentioned if it was okay to just grab your own or if that's expected. It seems like more of a communal place so I'm sure it'd probably be fine. For my lunch I had a trio of tacos and some fries and both were fantastic. We will definitely be back, hopefully bringing some friends!

Excellent cheese curds. Philly cheese steak and coleslaw good but did not absolutely wow me. Very casual atmosphere, large selection of unique bottle or can beer. Nice selection of tap beer too.
