The Octopi Taproom has been a gathering space to the community of Waunakee for 10+ years. From humble beginnings we have blossomed into a full-service restaurant that seats up to 100 people indoors. With the main focus on serving beers that we brew on site as well as consistently great food, you can feel the sense of pride right when you walk through the doors. From Asahi Super Dry now brewed right here in Waunakee to unique IPAs, fruited sours, Belgians, Pilsners, sweet stouts, and seltzers there is something for everyone to enjoy!

On any given day you will find Octopi’s own staff & brewers, local families, business people and community representatives feeling welcome and enjoying our inviting atmosphere.

Throughout the year we host a range of private parties, events, and social functions ranging from baby showers, wedding receptions to corporate outings.

Come soak up the sun & vibes on our huge patio & green space from May – September as we feature Live Music multiple days a week on our vibrant patio that makes for an unforgettable experience. Don’t worry! There is plenty of yard space for the kids to run around while the adults kick back and relax!

Our ever popular To-Go cooler is always fully stocked with Octopi & Asahi Beer as well as some of the Madison area’s most popular, unique breweries to celebrate true craft beverages.
