Ward’s House Of Prime and Stevens Point-based Point Brewery will open the Point Burger Bar at 10950 W. Good Hope Road on Nov. 11.
The idea was conceived in Las Vegas, where Brian Ward, owner of Ward’s, was talking to friends about how a restaurant needed to stand out to succeed.
Ward said the Point Burger Bar will do exactly that.
Ward has been working with James Beard nominated chef, Thomas Peschong, to design a menu that will include more than two dozen signature burgers, sandwiches and entrees. Guests can select from nine types of meat and more than 60 toppings that will be served alongside more than 30 side dishes and appetizers.
“We have been working to create a menu that lets guest get creative by building their own burger with 100’s of choices or they can select one of the dozens of signature burgers and sandwiches that we will feature,” Ward said.
At the bar, Point Beer will be a staple and people with a sweet tooth can try a new take on custards and shakes specially blended with a variety of liquors.
The 7,500-square-foot restaurant will have seating for more than 300 people, an outdoor patio and big screen TVs.
Ward is also looking at future licensing opportunities with Point across Wisconsin and in other states.
