Before this week turned out to be such a buzz kill on my springtime mood, I got a quick peek at a place that I think will be crazy busy in the summer. I'll give you a hint... "Fore!" And because I know you really REALLY want to know what that word means, here's the definition, "Foré!" is shouted as a warning during a golf game when it appears possible that a golf ball may hit other players or spectators. The mention of the term in an 1881 British Golf Museum indicates that the term was in use at least as early as that period. The term means 'look ahead,' and it is believed to come from the military 'beware before,' which was shouted when a battery fired behind friendly troops." Now, is that true? I have no idea, but Wikipedia says it is.
A couple of friends and I were looking for a place with big windows or a patio to sit and enjoy the day. The Woods got thrown in the mix because they have both. And so the golf club easily won. The Woods is located on Green Bay's east side kinda out in the country part. It may not seem country-ish to you but from what I'm used to, I sure thought it was. But it's still a short trip nonetheless. After we piled out of the car and walked inside I immediately saw a shuffle board table. I love those things. Lots. We then walked past my beloved game and towards the bar. The bar is on the right with a few hightops adjacent to it. The Woods also has regular sized tables throughout the dining room, plus there is a large banquet hall for private functions 
closed off in another room. On tap they serve Miller Lite, Blue Moon, Coors Light, Honey Weiss, Bud, Bud Light, Smithwicks, Harp, Guinness, and Hinterland Amber. With it being a Monday, their domestic tappers were a buck. Nice. I also saw a sign that said the Sunday special was a double summer hummer drink for $5. I'll have to come back for that. They also have a fully stocked liquor bar and a few wine choices too; plenty of choices for you to get your drink on.
I had no idea what to expect for a golfing sports pub but The Woods' keeps it nice and simple; a few flatscreen TV's and some beer posters. The real lure is the patio and big windows. When a place has awesome scenery and a cool patio to sit back and relax on, does it really need all the frills that other sports bars have? I think not my Packer people. This really would be a great place to go for a little fun in the sun and a refreshing cocktail or nice dinner afterward. I'm not one for golfing but I can putt putt like no other so how hard can it be to golf, really. Plus, if I'm terrible, err, when I'm terrible I can always go to their patio. For me, that truly is a win-win situation.

What could be better than watching golfers in a clean, well-lit pub and grill? Yummy food! Immediately upon entering the Woods Green Bay Pub & Grill I was greeted by an employee who showed me to my seat. I could see golfers teeing off from the pub's windows or choose to watch one of the flat screen TVs in the dining area. The first thing I noticed about The Woods Pub & Grill was how bright and clean it was.
The menu had great variety, from soups, salads, and sandwiches to entrees. The prices are reasonable as well. Prices vary anywhere from $6-$8 for salads and sandwiches to $10-$15 for an entree. I have eaten their chicken before and knew how delicious that was so I had high expectations for something else from their menu. I ordered the chicken quesadilla which came with sour cream and The Woods own homemade salsa. My expectations were met. My meal was quite tasty. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and my meal at The Woods Sport Pub & Grill.
