50 Best Bars near Greendale

“I had vodka and 7Up but wasn't able to finish second drink due to stomachache. It tasted like the soda gun needed a good cleaning because the 7up tasted off. Staff were kind and the place was busy for the Brewers game. Would be a good place to chill on a less packed night (and maybe a bottled drink).“

“Our party of five had a great time at AXE MKE. Cisco and Nico were very welcoming and friendship. We were not the most skilled at axe throwing but with some practice eventually all of us hit the target. This was a fun night out for all.“

“This was an extremely fun stop to our night, there was only two workers, but they were making the best of the situation and were extremely friendly. It did take a little bit for them to come over, but it wasn’t a problem at all she apologized as well. The worker was extremely nice and helpful through the whole night. She checked on us multiple times and was very wonderful. It was such a blast to come hang out here and learn new fun things to do. Highly recommend making a stop. We stopped in on a Saturday night and it was pretty empty. Definitely a fun place to stop and hang out. They have ax throwing as well.“

“great owner who is really great at incorporating others to feel appreciated . also the food is awesome with great portions“

“We had a blast .. found Holler House through Google search of oldest bars in Milwaukee. The owners Tom and Cathy are amazing and the locals made us feel at home! We have so many pictures and so much fun! Be sure to do a shotski! These Texans had a blast!“

“Great Beer selection, even gluten free options!“

“Great bar good but not typical, eg the usual French Dip is called an Irish Dip, served with sliced tenderloin steak. Cheese and Brat soup for game day. Wings are delicious with lots of sauces.
On Brewers game days their lot fills up fast, but there's plenty of neighborhood street parking.“

“Went for the first time today for a doggo lunch date with muh fur baby. Wonderful staff and quick service. I noticed negative reviews complaining there was dogs, well no crap it’s the business model and there’s an actual picture of a dog on the door and logo. ANYWAYS price is a little steep but when I got my food holy cow it was delicious. And I love that they have dog friendly menu items available as well. The place is super clean for the amount of guests and animals that come through. Loved that the food pickup and service area is separate from dining. The only downfall was I did pay for pickles and there wasn’t any but I didn’t even notice it until I devoured the first half of my food. No big deal. I ordered the steak sandwich and strawberry limeade which I also love is made by hand with fresh fruit. My dog is now sleeping in a food coma as am I.“

“Best date spot for young professionals in MKE. Come for the atmosphere and stay for the even more ambiance. It's like if Einstein invented the Tunnel of Love attraction in all those classic films about yt people wearing sweaters and getting married at age 17 instead of nuclear destruction, but even more.“

“Damond provided outstanding service. Great atmosphere. The Chicken Sandwich is truly the best ever. I’ll be back, working my way through the menu!“

“We had a blast playing on the stage in the center hall these last two times. Definitely a room with a ton of potential and great acoustics.“

“Great bar, delicious drinks, and the bartenders are always great. Cody is the best!“

“Great people. Good drinks“

“Best Drinks in Milwaukee 🔥“

“Only place around we know where you can play pingpong for free! They had pinball machines, darts and pingpong in the back. We came here for my mother's 64th birthday because she wanted to play table tennis and it was so fun! I haven't seen her smile like that in a long time!“

“We had fun designing our golf hole. The staff, Makaylah and Rachel, were very helpful! There were lots of prop to add, but there could be more ramps to add different levels. That said, we saw some ideas how others used the props to make makeshift ramps. Had a fun bar vibe.“

“All they have for food is all they need for food: pizza. They have classic and modern cabinets + enough pinball, skee ball, and hoops games to keep you entertained. Plays are $0.25/player for every game, but they have specials that lower the cost per play even further. Great for small and large parties alike

Vegetarian options: Mona Lisa is a margarita pizza

Dietary restrictions: They have ciders and seltzer, but I do wish they had more rice beers

Parking: More reliable parking is on N Jackson

Kid-friendliness: The bar is strictly 21+

Wheelchair accessibility: Ramps to main floor. I believe there's an elevator to the second floor“

“Awesome place!! My uncle used to be part owner years ago and my mom worked there. Supposedly I was conceived on the bar“

“There's something about tucking into the bar at Palomino when it's cold and wintery...it's perfect. Last night we had the savory hand pie of the day, a cubano, which was absolutely spectacular. That pastry dough is life changing. Balanced flavors. AMAZING. Dry rub wings were cooked perfectly and the fries, THE FRIES, THE FRIES! So good. Extensive whiskey/bourbon selection too which is fun to see and try new things. Don't skip this spot! Tuck in and hide from the cold!“

“food is so awesome! everyone is so nice! absolutely loved it!“

“Friendly bar and meet new friends and watch sports“

“Amazing bar tucked into the neighborhood. Beer list, wine list, and cocktails are all well thought out by someone who really cares. Good vibes. This place is 10/10.“

“great spot great owner great fun“

“My hubby did a pickup order and wow, we were impressed! Pickup fish fry isn’t usually something we do (thanks kidney stones for ruining our night) because it gets soggy but tonight we had to and it was really good. They packaged everything separately so the tartar and the slaw weren’t warm sitting in the container with the hot food, I had the combination platter and the package the baked cod in a separate soup container which was great. My husband had the blue gill and really enjoyed them as did our 5 year old. The food was all really delicious and I can’t wait to dine in next time. My husband said while he had a beer at the bar while he waited for our food all of the employees were friendly and pleasant.“

“Great bartenders, fun events!“

“Walked in as a stop before dinner. Everyone here was quietly watching Jeopardy on the tv and politely saying their answers. We grabbed a booth and joined in the fun. Services was great. Won a $1 off a pull tab and wished we could have stayed longer. Vibes are incredible.“

“Good service great food“

“Nothing I write can capture how much I enjoyed my experience at Tied House. We just happened to pass by their beautiful outdoor garden, and I’m so very happy we decided to go in. Julia, our server, was so helpful and very personable. Melissa and Adam, the owners, were amazing. They explained their craft to us and helped us to understand the creativity and passion that goes into every cocktail. All businesses should share their enthusiasm!! I wish we lived closer so we could visit them more often! I promise that every time we find ourselves in Milwaukee, we will be visiting the Tied House!!“

“got a pizza to go and a couple drinks while I waiting. staff was friendly and attentive. bar had a good buzz of business. the pizza was SO GOOD“

“Great place to watch a Packer game!💛💚“

“As others have said, homey/divey vibe, nothing fancy but perfect for what it is. Feels like it's always been there. Great food too, friendly owner/bartender, an an excellent brandy old fashioned.
If you don't love this place, I think it says more about you than it does about Phylos!“

“Awesome atmosphere where everyone is friendly. Great owner and awesome bartenders! If you haven’t been here already, you need to go!!!“

“great place to hang out. has been there for years“

“If you want to know what life was like before corporations took over everything, step back in time to the Valley Inn. The food was delicious and the cook, also waited on us. Nice neighborhood vibe, that I don’t see much anymore.
My wife and I split an Italian beef so the cook prepared it on two separate plates, without any attitude like you get at a lot of restaurants.“

“Awesome place to grab a drink and actually talk.“

“One of the few classier places where you can sit outside to enjoy a decent beer with a view. The crowd is not too young, they often play a good selection of dance hits, and typically very friendly. Sundays offer half off on tap beers. Cheers!!“

“THE best service and food. Walked in today with 8 if us including my grandchildren after the pumpkin farm. We were a little shocked at the quality of the food and service for such a small place. Fresh mac n cheese, broasted chicken, amazing burgers, delicious old fashioneds. This is a new one for our list.“

“Great bar with welcoming bar tenders and fun patrons! If you want to have a great time, this is the bar for you!“

“never again will I walk into to this establishment 0 outta 5.“

“Super friendly staff and amazing boba!“

“Really enjoyed our meal at St Francis Brewery. Stephanie, our server was attentive and friendly. Food delivery was super speedy. Pretzel bites and cheese were so good. We had the Beer can chicken and chicken tenders- both excellent. Also big fans of the sweet potato fries. Live music was fantastic. Altogether a great vibe- we’ll be back!“

“I just found out about this place today and went there around 1:00 pm. I ordered #2 Smashburger for myself and The Archie for my husband along with fries & onion rings! I have one word that sums up the food. Yummy!! You won't be disappointed.“

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

“Great bands and beer selection“

“The bar’s location is on my way to other places like Fluid and Walker’s pint. Back in 2021, I was being re-introduced to the Milwaukee LGBTQ+ community after living in Denver for the past 8 years. Before leaving, I volunteered at the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin, helped organize the gay softball World Series in 2009, and also volunteered at American Family Field for the LGBTQ+ softball league SSBL. I ran into this bar walking from Woodys to Walkers Pint. I walked in and was greeted by the bartender, Charlie. I recently parted ways with some of my gay “bar friends” and needed a change of scenery. Not knowing my story Charlie made conversation and made me feel welcome. In about 7-8 minutes meeting Charlie, he knew I happened to be gay. Since then I make it a point when friends visit for pride I take them to this place. All of the bartenders have always treated me with great respect and I enjoy the atmosphere. With me standing tall at 4’9” I’m happy to visit this inclusive place where I’ve happened to develop friendships with people who happen to be straight, oh and people who happen to be gay as well.“

“We have driven by many times and have always wanted to stop in. We stopped by for a quick drink or two before going to dinner. There is plenty of outdoor space for those warmer days, but since it was chilly out we went inside. Eclectic, classic, hometown bar feel on the inside.

We ordered an old fashioned and one of the cocktails on tap, Hop Wop. Drinks were great and service was kind. We would love to stop by sometime in the summer and tray some more of the menu“

“This bar is one of Milwaukee's best bars. From the large selection of board games and the large outdoor seating/smoking area to the great vibe and killer service, this place ranks high up there for myself and lots of others. Great place to meet too, as it's easy to find. Highly recommend stopping in sometime to see for yourself if you've never been.“

“I love the atmosphere and aesthetic, I also love the fact that the local bands play here.

If you’re a woman, stay safe. I’ve been given a laced cigarette at this location before, which is in no way the establishments fault. I have never drank at this location and was targeted with a cigarette, stay safe.“

“I was able to try this place for the first time last weekend and it was awesome! Sugar Maple does a lot of cool pop ups. We went to the Strangers Things one. The cocktails were so fun and tasty. The staff and owner were all so kind!
Highly recommend!“
