The restaurant offers a wide variety of entertainment, including a pay-by-the-hour pool hall, free darts, trivia nights, poker tournaments and sporting events displayed on big-screen TVs scattered throughout the restaurant.
Wilhagan’s owner Bill Lloyd said the restaurant is set apart by the freshness of its food – everything is homemade, from the chili to the ranch dressing. Wilhagan’s wings are large and meaty, and the teriyaki sauce offers a surprising mix of sweet and smoky. The pulled pork nachos are reminiscent of gamedays in the stadium, and the homemade honey-battered corndogs are the best since the state fair. Order a basket with fries and let the deep-fried goodness take you back to childhood. Another specialty are “queso sticks,” a warm, gooey mix of cheese and jalapeños inside a crushed tortilla chip crust.
For those who drink, Wilhagan’s offers a large array of options. The restaurant boasts a full bar along with one of the most extensive craft beer selections – draft or bottle – in town. Wednesday night’s special is $3 pints of a selection of craft beers and any domestic beers. Sunday is a mix of $3 mimosas, $4 Bloody Marys and $5 Bud Light pitchers.
