“food was good, bar was great“

“I took my dad out here for Father's Day at his request. We had a very nice time. The beer selection was lovely. The lady at the bar was very nice. I think for a chill summer Sunday afternoon on the outdoor patio, it was really sweet. It's true the bathrooms are co-ed but I had encountered this in Frankfurt Germany so I wasn't fazed, but the one I went in had 1 stall and a urinal outside the stall with no privacy so be prepared for that (I didn't see if you can lock the door once you're in there for more privacy).“

“Friendly bar and meet new friends and watch sports“

“Came to Milwaukee for a day, visiting from Chicago. Three kids and three adults. The kids were hungry (as always) so we stopped in here and we were greeted by wonderful staff and the food was delicious. We felt so welcomed and despite our large party (and very demanding 4 year olds), staff handled all of our requests and questions with ease. Thank you for an enjoyable and wonderful meal!“

“My partner and I went here for the first time today and it was AMAZING!!! We ordered the zucchini fritters, fried calamari, baked chicken, shrimp souvlaki, and got the tzatziki/Tarama/Tirokafteri dips w/ pita bread. Everything tasted impeccable and the presentation of the food was great! Atmosphere was perfect for the sunny day. I also got a Salty Cucumber cocktail and it was super refreshing and tasty. I literally don’t have a single bad thing to say about this spot. We also ordered a pound of the tzatziki spread to go and another pound of the tarama to go 🤣“

“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.“

“This was my first time there with friends. The food was great. We'll be back again.“

“We love Urban Harvest Brewing due to the family atmosphere as members of the mug club and all the events that involve the club and the general public (i.e. block parties and fundraisers). I absolutely love how owner Steve supports his community and organizations like the Wisconsin Humane Society and his patrons. Also as a retired Infection Control Practitioner, I am SO impressed with the cleanliness of the facility and especially how UHBC operated during COVID-19 pandemic ... nice job!“

“We had a great time for our boy's birthday. We all enjoyed the big yard, and the picnic table seating. The owner was kind enough to gift him a desert treat which he absolutely devoured. We loved the burgers and fries, and our man enjoyed his burger too. All around, this was a fabulous experience and we hope this business thrives. Thanks for a fantastic memory!“

“This is like any neighborhood bar, with a lot of locals and other nice people! The bartenders are always friendly and have lots of tables for small groups to gather to have fun! They don't serve food though, only frozen pizza and salty snacks!

Parking: They have a parking lot and if it's full, there is also street parking!“

“The atmosphere was great! Food and cocktails were delicious! Staff very nice“

“Stopped for an impromptu drink to waste an hour before I had to be somewhere. This new bar is gem! The owners were there and chatted with me a bit - so down to earth!
I ordered a bottled beer but the cocktails being prepared in front of me had to taste as good as they looked! Service was great. Beer was cold. Atmosphere fun. Barstools were comfy. There was a game on the TV. The wall of windows that separate the bar from the sidewalk patio open for those perfect Wisconsin-weather days to bring the outside, in and the inside fun, out!

Food options are coming in a later phase. Give this charming place a try!“

“Always a great variety of live music, the best sound by Matt and personable bartenders. Good bar food , too!“

“I was recently in MKE for a week. I went to several bars while there Dukes On The Water was by far my favorite! We were greeted quickly upon entering & Katrina was a GREAT bartender. One of the owners came in while we were there, Tim was GREAT as well!! Highly recommend this place“

“Yvonne was our server, and the hostess and she was hustling. This is a really cool place where they are acrually teaching various aspects of running a restaurant i believe specifically to minorities.Food was great- jerk eggrolls, catfish, and my wife had a pulled pork bowl. Food was great, the whole experience was enjoyable!“

“I have attended the SINGO game nights a few times with different groups of friends. Every time we have had a great time. The game is entertaining, the drinks are good as well as the food and service. Love the space and intend on returning.“
