We serve up delicious, high-quality comfort food with a little something for everyone. Our specialty is our mouth-watering Gourmet Burgers, handcrafted from fresh ground beef and cooked to absolute perfection. Because we know what it's like to feed a big family, we also feature a full kid's menu packed with favorites to keep the little ones happy while the adults relax and enjoy their meals!

While we built 1873 Bar & Grill to be the ultimate community gathering space—complete with games for the kids, great drinks, and live music—we know that sometimes you just need a great meal on the go! Give us a call or stop by to place a takeout order so you can bring our handcrafted burgers and darn good food right to your own dining table.

You can find us right in the heart of downtown Portage! Our address is 301 DeWitt Street, Portage WI, USA. Come on down, grab a table, and make yourself at home.

We serve absolutely everyone! As a blended family with eight kids, we know how hard it can be to find a place that works for all ages. We built 1873 to be a hangout where kids can play games, adults can relax with great food, friends can gather for sports, and couples can connect over live music. We proudly serve and honor our local heroes—nurses, teachers, police officers, and first responders always receive our deep appreciation and special discounts.
