Great spot, would recommend

Great dog friendly spot and close to summerfest! The staff even ran out front to let us know valet was included in our stay so that we didn't pay for parking elsewhere. The outdoor bar also had a good happy hour and great vibes. Only bummer was there wasnt much in the immediate block surrounding it
