“Was never to Oscars before. I didn't expect that I'd be eating the greatest burger I've had in my Life. Meat was thick and juicy. Bun was clean and soft. Onion rings were hot with a firm dense crust. My friend and I were almost in disbelief. Staff was incredibly polite. Clientele, (place was packed), were well-mannered. I'll definitely be back. 10/10“

Whether you’re stopping in for a quick drink or planning to stay a while, you’ll get great service without breaking the bank. Definitely a hidden gem worth checking out!“

“While Milwaukee is world renowned as a city of bars, bars, bars…and bars, the city’s bar culture is unmatched anywhere else. Every bar has its own personality and stories inside their walls. What I like about here is the old school, no-fuss feel but particularly their wonderful hot sandwiches. I started with their popular Italian Bomber with mushrooms. That was so good that I followed it with a Chucktender Steak Sandwich which was soooo juicy and perfectly tender. Both sandwiches were so flavorful that I returned for a Double Cheeseburger with grilled onions. Excellent. The meat is cooked on an old grate grill which adds to the “frozen in time” feel here. Mind you, fries or tots aren’t served here. Cards are accepted (formerly cash only). The sandwiches and cozy neighborly atmosphere in addition to the lovely sandwiches (served on thick bread halves and not buns) makes here a winner in my book.“

“Darts is always a hit on Thursdays, friendly atmosphere, Sports on all the time, Poker on Sundays, and always endless memories to be made😌“

“I had my 40th birthday party at Pop's and it was an incredible time! The drool-worthy food, the fun atmosphere, tiki bar, this place has it all and was the absolute perfect spot for both our small kiddos and our big adult kiddos. The staff was above and beyond and just crushed it on all levels!“

“Great place to watch soccer. They also have a nice beer selection.“

“was great food n service“

“So the review written by "Being Still", I was there with this person. The restaurant reached out to this person through Messenger, but because they blocked Being Still, there is no way to respond to them. And they took the comments off their facebook page and blocked Being Still.... nice.... Seems sneaky to not leave a honest review up for people to see the conversations, but to only have the good ones on your Facebook page. Instead of having to go look in the review section to find honest reviews.“

“I've eaten pizza all over the country, and this is the best I've had in a LONG TIME. Absolutely amazing! The staff was absolutely amazing too! 10/10 experience“

“Great prices, perfect bar menu, great staff, but what really makes this bar great is the owner's passion for the legacy and history of the bar. The items on display are one of a kind, and knowledge the bar owners have about this establishment and the items on display is rare these days. Their love for this bar spills over into the "personality" of this place. Stop in, get a drink, a bite to eat, look around, ask questions...you'll leave with a truly memorable experience!“

“Absolutely amazing place with amazing food. The wings are amazing so are the burgers. karaoke is a bonus on Mondays.“

“Exciting First Fish Fry Experience of Lent 2025!
Today, I finally had the chance to step into Jerseys Pub and Grill for my first official Fish Fry Lunch of Lent 2025! It's located at 4024 S Howell Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53207, and let me tell you – I’ve passed by this place countless times, but today, I finally got to experience it! What a hidden gem it turned out to be!
It all started when I met the owner, who just so happens to have a son at the same elementary school as my own. That’s when I discovered their Friday Fish Fry – a perfect addition to my Fish Fry Bucket List.
Now, let's dive into the mouthwatering menu options they offer on Fridays:
* Cod Fish Fry: Freshly cut lemon wedge, slaw, rye bread, and your choice of fries, potato wedges, or tater tots, all for $13.
* Fish Sandwich: Served with your choice of potato for $10.
* Shrimp Tacos: A flavorful delight for $9.50.
* Fish Tacos: Tasty and satisfying for $9.50.
* Shrimp Basket: Perfect for seafood lovers at $11.
From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by the owner’s warm and friendly demeanor – she made me feel right at home. Her impeccable service really set the tone for the whole experience.
As for the food – WOW! I was served three generously-sized pieces of cod, perfectly battered with just the right amount of crispiness, yet not oily at all (huge win!). I went with the potato wedges, and they were on point – golden brown, crispy on the outside, and warm & fluffy on the inside. The slaw wasn’t the creamy type I usually prefer, but it had a delightful, crisp flavor that paired perfectly with everything else.
All in all, this was a fantastic Fish Fry Lunch that I’d definitely recommend if you’re in the area and craving something new! Another Milwaukee gem to add to your list.“

“Great people and cheap drinks. Not the fanciest cocktails but top-notch bartenders and after a few stops in you're a regular. It's the perfect local dive bar.“

“Nice place first time here, great people“

“First time there for Thursday Night Karaoke and it was great! Good food, company and drinks!“

“Had a great time shot pool for 5 hours drink soda people very friendly the wasn't really that busy but it was busy enough to wear the bartenders were busy had a great time nothing wrong with the bar owner I've known for a long time and he built the bar basically by himself he gutted that building and built everything in there all brass hardwood floors just gorgeous I recommend it to anyone thanks a lot for a good time“

“amazing bar super sweet and nice bartenders...and their patio is the Best!“

“I am beyond disappointed with my experience here. We asked the bartender for a simple mushroom garnish for our drinks, but they mistakenly rang up an order of breaded mushrooms. When we tried to clarify the order, the bartender completely lost their temper and started screaming at us, accusing us of lying about what we ordered. ​Mistakes happen with orders, but being screamed at by staff is unacceptable. It was embarrassing and ruined our night. We won’t be returning until management addresses the extreme lack of professionalism behind the bar. this occurred at approximately 530-6 pm on 1/2 26 for reference for management as to who the young male bartender on duty was..“

“This place is a nice little bar with a litte of everything. Good prices, darts, billiards, a few large televisions for sports and they are open on Thanksgiving. If you are in the area, it is worth dropping in. They also have TouchTunes if you are familiar with the app, so you can pick the music that is played while you are there. There is limited parking, but there is street parking nearby as well.“

“I’ve lived in Milwaukee since August & this has quickly become my go-to wing place with my girlfriend (who introduced me to it last year). We come here weekly like clockwork now - before moving here it was my choice when I’d come up from IL to visit (when it was my time to pick) - for the Jacks, Ecto Cooler & the Parm fries but also for the EXCEPTIONAL service by Katie. She helps me navigate this large, fabulous menu & she has never steered us wrong. She is so knowledgeable, fast & friendly. I only wish every place had a Katie to accent a menu this delicious. Nom nom nom. Run, don’t walk here.“

“We just had dinner tonight, great service and food. I had the sliced prime rib sandwich with fries. Delicious!!“

“Great Food, Service, Live Music, Heated Patio Seating, Great Menu, Many Tap Beers, a Variety of Hard Seltzers, Great Happy Hour, and Sports & Concert Shuttles.“

“I had a party of 9 including our 91 year old Mom for lunch and shuttle to the Brewer’s game today, service was fantastic, lunch was delicious and the shuttle driver outstanding, thank you for everything, it was a perfect day and a Brewers win!! Thank you for everything ❤️“

“Wings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Fun neighborhood bar. All the best parts of a dive bar without looking like a dive bar. Lots of TVs with sports. Fun bartenders and regulars. Darts. Good specials every night. All the things you like about a bar and few of the things you don't.“

“Celebrated my daughter’s 40th birthday at Double D’s. The staff were amazing. They checked in multiple times during the event, helped with planning the food and even assisted with the surprise!“
