The Joynt, a venerable Eau Claire watering hole, is many things. It’s a landmark. It’s a time capsule. It’s a classic Wisconsin tavern with a narrow, wood-lined interior decorated in a style one reviewer termed “Lumberjack Revival.” It’s a relaxing place to slip onto a stool (or, if you’re lucky, into a corner table) and drink some of the cheapest beer in town while chatting with a clientele that ranges from poets to students to blue-collar folks.
