Good Co. Pioneer Pointe - CLOSED

Nice looking hunk of cod ya got there...

In all honesty, after a big lunch I wasn't ready to tackle this bad boy on my own. Since I wasn't starving, and he was amenable to it, I decided to share it with the little man, which turned out to be a smart decision. We went halfsies on it and each enjoyed just enough of the decadent beer battered cod to fill us up. The fish itself was supremely flaky, but a little grease leaked from the large loin and softened up the batter a bit. He actually prefers it softer like this so he was all about it...I still thought it was decent.

The fries were expertly fried which resulted in a super crispy shell surrounding the pillowy inners. They were so good in fact, we ordered an additional side when the first batch ran dry and junior was still hungry. A big and bold tartar was nothing less than superb and took the fish to the next level.

The side of slaw was fresh and tangy, and the full slice of marble made my heart smile. Super sides for sure.

I feel like the Good Company has settled into their groove and are consistent putting out good food and great drinks. Overall, we recommend this Fish Fry and are thankful that when we need something quick and easy on a Friday we can just bop right down the road. And yes, the BOGO from the Mad City Cocktails book is a nice bonus!

Circumstances kept us close to home tonight but luckily Good Co. is in the neighborhood now. My 3-piece cod didn't come scalding hot but was still really tasty. The three pieces looked small but were actually plump and filling. They had a wonderful flakiness which paired well with their PBR beer batter. The fries were plentiful and enjoyed by both me and my pizza-ordering 9 year old. The tartar complimented the fish well and the slaw was scrumptious. The leftover bacon aioli and ranch both served double duty pairing perfectly curd and fry alike. Overall, this was another delicious Fish Fry at the Company and I'm happy we got everything done we needed to do this Friday. On to the weekend!

Usually when I hear battered bluegill I think twice. Bluegill is typically best when lightly breaded, but I was feeling brave this Friday so I went for it (and I am glad I did). This batter was about as light as it gets, had a great flavor, and gave the delicate fillets a pleasant crunch. The fries were expertly fried, the house tartar was thin but delicious, and the slaw was excellent. The curds we got for an app were also above reproach and served with some tasty ranch plus a next-level bacon aioli that I sopped up like candy. Overall, this was an awesome first experience at Good Co. and having them right down the road might just be one of the best things to happen to us since moving to Middleton. Good fish. Good drinks. Good location. Good lord!

After spending the last two days attending a conference at #LambeauField I was wiped out. I could easily have just stayed home this Friday, but when you love Fish Fry you do what you gotta do.

We managed to make the short trip down Mineral Point Rd and were one of the first tables of the night at @goodco.pp. I had an #OldFashioned in no time and this pretty plate of #bluegill not long after.

The Good Co. bluegill is beer battered, but lightly so. A lot of beer batters will bury fish this delicate, but you can still taste these fillets to some extent since the batter is thoughtfully applied. It has a great flavor to boot and pairs perfectly with the Company tartar.

The fries are ultra-crunchy and super satisfying, the fat slab of rye keeps it real, and the homemade slaw tastes like no other slaw out there...really yummy stuff.

I really wanted to get out there tonight, but driving to the sticks (or even the east side for that matter) just wasn't in the cards. Luckily for me, Good Company at Pioneer Point is right down the road and consistently delivers the goods. Overall, this one's easy to recommend and I'm still tickled pink they're practically my neighbor.
