Question 1

Where is Poplar Hall located?

Accepted Answer

We are in the middle of RiverHeath, just below the College Avenue bridge in Appleton, Wisconsin.

The address is 141 South RiverHeath Way, Appleton WI 54915.

If you are walking, take the riverfront trail north from the College Avenue bridge and you’ll see us nestled in between Willow and the Marriott Courtyard hotel. If you walk into Telulah Park, you’ve gone too far! Turn around. If you are driving eastbound across the College Avenue bridge, take your first right on John Street, then your first right again on Banta Court. Drive down the hill, then take a right on RiverHeath Way, all the way down to the end.

Question 2

Where do I park?

Accepted Answer

There is a parking lot adjacent to Poplar Hall. If that fills up, try parking in one of the other RiverHeath lots. Please don’t park at the hotel unless you are staying there, or they will get grumpy. If the other lots are full, you can park along on Banta Court all the way up the hill. There is also public parking in Telulah Park, just up Newberry Street.

Question 3

Who should I have to cater my special event?

Accepted Answer

Please reach out to us for our approved list of caterers. They all know the venue, the kitchen, and the staff. If you are a caterer and would like to cater events with us, please reach out as well. Thank you.

Question 4

What type of payment does Poplar Hall accept?

Accepted Answer

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover are accepted at the box office and bars. We do not accept cash.

Question 5

What can I drink at Poplar Hall?

Accepted Answer

We have a full bar offering a wide selection of draft and bottled beers, spirits, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. Please note that outside drinks are not allowed in the venue.
You can purchase one of our Poplar Hall steel pint cups for $5 and enjoy $1 off every drink forever (just remember to bring it next time!). Don’t worry if you don’t want to buy one—we’ll go one better: bring your own steel or plastic cup (no glass), and you’ll receive the same discount.
We’re trying to reduce single-use plastic, so this is a win-win. It may not make a ton of sense financially (plastic cups cost us about a nickel!), but we encourage you to take advantage and help us be more sustainable.

Question 6

Where can I get water at Poplar Hall?

Accepted Answer

We have water fountains throughout the venue as well as water at the bar for your convenience. Feel free to use your Poplar Hall pint cup. We want to make sure you stay hydrated and comfortable during your visit.

Question 7

Is there a dress code?

Accepted Answer

Think of this as a Packers game. Smaller venue, overlooking the river, and no hall of fame athletes, but otherwise the same. You will be searched at the door, including purses and bags. If you can’t bring it into a Packer game, you can’t bring it into Poplar Hall. We’re here to keep you safe and comfortable to enjoy your evening.

Question 8

Is there a hotel nearby?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Why not try the award-winning Courtyard Appleton Riverfront, a stone’s throw from Poplar Hall? Here’s a link for booking: https://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/atwcy-courtyard-appleton-riverfront/.
