Weekends in Wisconsin are made for the Green and Gold. But if you can't make it up to Lambeau Field and don't feel like heading over to your favorite sports bar on a Sunday morning, there are other places to enjoy a Packers game -- and their big screens are really, really big.
The Rosebud Cinema Drafthouse, 6823 W. North Ave. in Wauwatosa, offers a different way to watch Brett and the gang. The large screen and plush velvet loveseats and couches make for a comfortable viewing experience. Plus, the Rosebud offers tasty food and cold beverages, and admission is free.
Their menu includes pizza, burgers, hot dogs, nachos, desserts and more. If you're parched, plenty of beer is on hand, including Leinenkugel's, Harp Lager and Guinness.
Large groups are welcome at the Rosebud, and you can reserve seats in advance. Call (414) 607-9446. Doors open at 11 a.m. for 12 p.m. games, 2 p.m. for 3:15 p.m. games and 6:30 p.m. for Monday night games.
Another movie theater that doubles as a place to enjoy Packers games is the Fox Bay Cinema Grill, 334 E. Silver Spring Dr. in Whitefish Bay. Kick back and relax in padded chairs at tables and counters.
Admission is also free at the Fox Bay for Packers games. In addition to a big screen, they feature a THX sound system which nicely amplifies the big hits.
For hungry fans, their menu includes pizza, buffalo wings, chicken fingers, sandwiches, salads, desserts and more. Beverages include draft beer, wine and specialty drinks.
For more details, call the Fox Bay Grill at (414) 906-9999.
