FiveSix
the pride of Packer Nick Barnett
405 W. Walnut St. | 920-435-1057

FiveSix, as in the number “56,” are the two digits that adorn the jersey of the Green Bay Packer Nick Barnett. Barnett, starting middle linebacker and the owner of this brand-new “ultra lounge” housed in the former historic West Theatre, wanted to bring the big-city lounge experience he craved to Titletown. FiveSix was born. Fusing a laid-back jazz club atmosphere with a classy lounge-restaurant feel, FiveSix is primed to be the highlight of GB’s nightlife.

Game on! While Barnett didn’t want another jerseys-on-the-wall type sports bar, he remembered to keep the renovated theater’s gigantic projection screen intact so NFL fans could watch him blitz and sack on Sundays at his own bar. Hey, this is Green Bay after all!

Stan & Ollie's
dock, dine and drink
348 S. Washington St. | 920-437-6103

Stan & Ollie’s Boathouse has offered two distinct things since opening in 1997: first, it provides great bar food and fantastic drink specials. Second, it is the only public place to dock a boat in the center city of Green Bay. Perfect for an evening respite from a long day of boating on the Fox River, Stan & Ollie’s lets patrons simply pull into their slips off the river, dock and step in for some food and drinks right in the heart of downtown Green Bay.

Docking at the Boathouse is in high demand during the boating months. Call ahead to make sure you can pull in without delay, or you’ll be treading water while waiting for a slip to open.
