The Tap Room is rather large, with plenty of space at the circular bar or a variety of tables. Eat, drink, watch the games, or partake in a variety of games like shuffleboard, foosball, darts, and more. Public Brewing also rents out event space and private party areas – they have the room.
They offer tours on Saturdays at 1pm & 3pm, you can reserve your space and buy tickets here.
Public opened in a 1917-era building on 58th Street back in the 2000s and relocated to its current 1910-era brick building just down the block in 2021. They’re still right in downtown Kenosha just east of Highway 32 and within half a mile of the east ends of Highway 50 and Highway 158. Within walking distance are tons of the locales and events that make downtown and the Harbor District such a vibrant place now.
