For the fourth year in a row, The Joynt (322 Water St., Eau Claire) tops this list. Stepping inside this Water Street watering hole makes you proud to live in the Chippewa Valley.  Even if things are going bad, at least something is right if The Joynt is still here. The Fire House (202 Gibson St., Eau Claire) is second: The only thing better than the beer selection or beautiful building is the staff, who keep this place moving and fun all night. The Livery (316 Wisconsin St., Eau Claire) has everything: You can enjoy a summer night outside or chill in their upstairs game room. – Cullen Ryan
